Now I have to get ganked over and over just to make my daily tickets.

[Edit for bashing.]

Not sure what I was bashing, but fine.

UPDATE: I have realized since posting this that you can also run the dungeons for the tickets. That makes it more tolerable, though this was still quite a frustrating experience at first. Feel free to complain at me for being vocal about that, but I don't need to be reminded of the other option since I did miss that when making the original base post.

    Or run one of the 2 IC dungeons that honestly are far from hard even on vet.

    So forcing PvE is not? Almost all the events are PvE and you can get more than enough tickets in the PvE events. To complain about that seems a little off.. To suggest Zos should ignore part of the game or get fired is a little absurd.

    Edit: and as has been pointed out you can do PvE for this event. Maybe before calling for someone to get fired you should do a little reading first.

    Hit a boss, die, collect tickets and move on. What could be easier?

    No pvp required, run Imperial city prison or white gold tower, can even be on normal. Reading is a valuable skill.

    So I missed the dungeon part. Though at least staying queued forever is better than getting ganked when walking out the starting door by a bunch of camping people from another alliance.

    It is still idiotic.

    I need the tickets this time or the berries will be gone. Sure I could pay real money for them.

    And this is primarily not a PvP game (at least not at the base). You can't PvP until level 10 even. You can PvE from the start.

    You can't do vet content until level fifty. So using your logic PvP is more base game than running vet pledges and trials.

    Have you seen balance changes? Sure the majority PvE. But when it comes to balance this can go either way

    It isn’t forced as there is the dungeon option as well.

    I don't run those and never have been required to run them, so PvP players wouldn't be compelled to run them either.

    The balance changes didn't help me at all, but then I am running a pet sorc, so I was the main target of the nerfs, even though I never did well in PvP before the nerfs.

    If it’s to get the last few berries? I’d say yeah, they do. Else they’d have to wait a whole year.

    If they are even offered then. The claim was that berries would be once (per quarter) and then done. Stepping back on that would be good for some of us, but would annoy those who spent Crowns to get them because of the claim "last chance" aspect.

    To be precise, it's both. Not only is Cyrodiil and Imperial City a PvP and PvE combo, but also you can choose to do that or strictly PvE for this event with the dungeons.

    A lack of play style options in any event is less than optimal in my opinion.

    Does that mean that I would like to see provision of tickets for PvP, group PvE, world PvE, BGs, etc? Yes, please.

    Let people do what they enjoy to get tickets. Not what you think they should enjoy.

    You can do WGT or ICP on normal. Personally I think ICP is faster and easier to explain. If you do it quickly enough the mechanics don’t matter until the last fight.

    PvPers don’t think it’s idiotic.

    We are “forced”, as you say, to PvE
    For sets, skills, and what not.

    Just do dungeons for the tickets.
    I solo it on normal (PvP toon!)
