Casterial · August 2019

Also, it seems only everyone looks at the PVP and not the secondary option, read.

If you can opt out, why not.

You can PvP only if you have the pvp setting set to "yes"
And you can ONLY attack poeples with the same setting set to "yes"

If you want to be able to attack just anyone, then, it's nothing more than grieving, and it does not honor you.

Because even if you "opt out" players can still troll and grief you. Players organized dueling in the bank at rawl'kha. Players start duels at the crafting stations. Right next to the wayshrines so anyone porting in is in the dueling ring. You don't have to be able to attack other players to grief and harass them.

You used a safezone as the response, thats a city, safe.

Like others have stated, world PVP is usually to kill likeminded people, its boring to attack PVErs, its just sometimes its needed to warn others.

NO its not warcraft!!!!!!

Naa, OP knows they bought into a game that was not intended to have open world PvP. If they really wanted open world PvP they would have gone with BDO or an game designed more for PvP than PvE.

Well, they actually had open world planned, it got scrapped because majority of the players are "Elder Scrolls "Skyrim"" players.

There's this game called World of Warcraft I think you'd like better.

So, there were TWO discussions, only one is being pointed out.

1. Open-world pvp tied to bounty system
2. Ability to change your phase manually. Currently its RNG.

Anyone have thoughts on #2?

Been there, hit top 20 for tanks, also did a lot of world PVP. The games grinding concept is trying to become BDO, no thank you.

Yes, but sounds too complex.

Imo, they could just copy WoW open world PVP scheme, where you have increased rewards if you play with open world PVP enabled. Make those rewards minimal (+10%) in zones of your alliance, and maximum (+100%) in capitals of enemy alliance.

Absolutely optional but can be switched on/off only in capital city. Switching "on" automatically makes all guards of other alliances hostile. Switching "off" makes game completely the same as they are now on live.

Doesn't work at all at DLC zones.

This is a good system, 2 world phases 1 is PVP off, one is PVP on. PVP on is better rewards.

You're not a real pvp'er (yes I'm gatekeeping) if you're asking for open world pvp in a game that wasn't designed around it and heavily caters to the pve population. If you want open world pvp go play games that have it. Then come back to ESO when you get stomped and realize you're not about that life. Asking for open world pvp just to pick on dudes in full divines is dumb.

As a pvp person I say no. ESO wasn’t designed with this in mind, you would have redesign most of the base overworld game to do this.

Putting open world pvp in the game the way resource gathering, etc is set up now would just be an enabler for griefing and trolling people.

I’d rather they work on fixing Cyrodiil, fixing CP so we can use it in Battle grounds, and balancing things out.

Agree with everything except the CP part. Cp is already fixed in battlegrounds. Now they just need to apply the same fix to the rest of the game.

As someone who comes from open world full loot mmos, you are not a real pvper.

Cyrodiil is carebear PvP, anything non loot is carebear PvP, so dont go poopin on someones ideas when this games design has been lacking from the start.

Get off your high horse, because this attitude is the true cancer to the MMO community.

The game from the start was not intended to be open world pvp. Why are you bothering with a game that never had and was never intended to have open world pvp when that is what you want? ESO is intentionally by design not a cookie cutter copy of other MMOS. So if an attitude is "true cancer" to the community, its your viewpoint to this one.
