NERF SIEGE

Siege is over performing in cyrodiil. How is something so unbelievable powerful with literally no counter play???? Siege shield is completely useless you still can die to 30k cold stone trebs and 25k meatbags. And you can’t move out of it because people will just set up more than you are just fighting more siege than actual people. How is something from medieval times more powerful than literal magic? My suggestions are to buff siege shield like crazy or remove damage from siege all together and just have it apply status effects. Because having people dog pilling on you with a scatter shot and meat bag both doing 25-30k damage and apply more damage taken healing debuffs is so unfair. Status effects of siege weapons are strong enough to kill people why does it have to do an outrageous amount of damage too?

✭✭✭✭✭... and there is I who would like to bring back siege bug when it dealt double damage
Sieges should hurt. When sieges dealt double damage we were forced to use tactic again when taking keeps. You couldn't just stack on ram, cast siege shield and purge, purge, purge. Players was forced to spread more, wall sieges were a thing again. I loved it, being on both ends. There is nothing more funny to experience when someone uses 2 coldharbour ballistas, that hit for 15k per tick, to kill you and he fails constantly, then reach him through breach, kill him and burn his sieges 
Say no to Toxic Casuals!
I am doing my best, but I am not a native speaker, sorry.
"Difficulty scaling is desperately needed. 9 years. 6 paid expansions. 24 DLCs. 40 game changing updates including A Realm Reborn-tier overhaul of the game including a permanent CP160 gear cap and ridiculous power creep thereafter. I'm sick and tired of hearing about Cadwell Silver&Gold as a "you think you do but you don't"-tier deflection to any criticism regarding the lack of overland difficulty in the game." - @AlexanderDeLarge16 -

✭The only time siege needs a nerf is when a sorc is using it..."Stendarr's mercy be upon you, for the vigil has none to spare."2 -
msalvia✭✭✭✭By "overperforming" do you mean "killed me"? I think the only thing I find more irritating that these constant "nerf stuff" threads is how utterly subjective the reasoning is. When we say "overperforming," what do we actually mean? Overperforming compared to what?
And to touch on the substance, Siege should be buffed. The only people who complain about siege are zerglings who don't know purge exists.5 -

✭✭Please look into this it’s really unfair that people 50+ Meters and click one button and kill 5 people instantly.
If in noCP you might have a point, but in CP no.
But even then, considering the amount of time you have to leave the situation and that soege has a reload time, I can't ever see how siege is really a problem outside a chokepoint (where it can't even keep up with healing and defense this patch).
I don't think siege needs nerfing at all, in fact, I think it should be buffed.2 -
Cowars✭✭Zos siege weapons needs a buff to effectively defend a castle! A purge bot can just run thru a fully defended castle with little to no damage or a ball group with 6 purge bots are unkillable in pvp. I remember back in the day when siege weapons meant something in pvp and everyone had to slot siege shield ...now they are a joke! Zos please buff siege weapons to their former strength!6

✭✭✭TLDR: BUFF PvDOOR
Ah, that fine line between not adding 4 Purgebots so you can say you're too good for it, but needing the cohesion to loosen the ballgroup out of red without falling apart to PUGs.

I wish it was this simple because if you saw the amount of counter siege that gets placed on my group you would be like wow that’s more than a Zerg would trying to defend last emp keep"I can't dodge roll once or run out of the way of the big red circle appearing around me, NERF NERF NERF!"

It honestly hurts me to read this because you are probably just a block tank or a flag build can’t actually fight anyone so they resort to siege weapons to do every Thing for you it doesn’t need a buff in the slightest in need a damage nerf to actually encourage people to actually pvp and not just click one button and boom 10 people dead instantly great work everyone 🙄Zos siege weapons needs a buff to effectively defend a castle!

over perform to its former self it’s use to never be this strong like a year ago you can’t take castles or fight people in tower people there’s so much siege everywhere you have no where to stand and having people chasing doesn’t help it you can’t just go out there in burn it all because 19 meatbags will be pointed at you instantlyBy "overperforming" do you mean "killed me"?

RedGirl41✭✭✭✭Anyone that thinks siege should be buff clearly hasn’t died to 18k oils. Because they are the one sitting back and sieging.
Also shouldn’t allow people to sprint inside of an enemy keep, go up stairs and pour oils in top of them when you don’t even own the keep. Learn how to actually fight instead of just running away.
Also saying “just move out of the way” is ignorant when you can stack oils and meat bags all in one doorway or allllll over the field. There’s nowhere to stand.
You know it’s over powered when people will use meat bags to kill people instead of their character.
Meat bags shouldn’t do as much damage but just heal debuff you instead (still incredibly strong and useful)
Scattershots shouldn’t do nearly all that damage on impact but just cause you to take more damage (hello? That’s still wicked strong)
Stop always looking for the easy way to kill people and learn to actually fight them with your character. Can’t kill them? Learn from the situation and be better2 -
SillyGT✭✭✭✭
Thank you finally someone that actually understand how pvp should be played. And I’m completely agree that you shouldn’t be able to place oils in a keep you don’t even own why are you defending something you don’t even own they need to limited the amount of counter siege you can place in a keep you don’t even own to a very small amount same thing with people defending said keep counter siege should not be the primary form of combatAnyone that thinks siege should be buff clearly hasn’t died to 18k oils.

It honestly hurts me to read this because everyone that pvp's na ps4 knows you and your ball group just ulti dump and run away. The truth is siege needs a buff for what's it's intended for which is castle defense. I rarely see siege shield being used when taking castles even with heavy defense. Castles need to hold more siege weapons for defense or buff the damage! As of now one cold fire wouldn't kill one person in SillyGT ball group plus they just would run away from the siege damage. Zos please buff siege weapons!Edited by Cowars on November 21, 2019 9:29PM10 -

If you can't defend with siege in its current state then maybe this game isn't for you.0 -

That's funny, I sit in siege on the front lines all the time on my templar, mag DK, stam DK, stam sorc, etc. in defense and offense. It takes close to six cold stones at once to kill me and oil is a joke, and I am not a tank and play in only light and medium in Cyrodiil without max resist. If you are a vampire and can't handle it as a vampire then simply don't be one or run counters, one of which includes moving.3
