    Are you trolling? PVE has the most events. There are only two PVP events, one of them is Midyear and the other Imperial City celebration. The rest is all PVE

    Maybe they meant that PvErs are going to sit on the sidelines instead of jumping in there and participating in this events?

    I'm a PvEr, but I'll be jumping in and participating. You can only kill me a gazillion times, right? I'll keep coming back for more.

    Well said. They do seem to be the whiniest group of the player base.

    It legit scares me the number of players that seem to think the NPC’s are going to come to the forums to whine n complain about the over powered player base...

    If Molag Kena, Domihaus, and a coalition of trial bosses came to the forums to complain about how overused and overpowered gear and skills are making it hard for them to kill players, PVE players might not be so shocked every time ZOS nerfs something that impacts PVE.

    Personally, I think the whole "earn extra XP" thing is unimportant. During the events where you must drink from a cauldron or flagon, eat cake, read a scroll, etc., to earn extra XP for a couple of hours, I always forget to check my character to see if it's time to do that again, so I end up running around and earning normal amounts of XP anyway.

    On the other hand, I love when double amounts of mats drop from nodes! :D

    I thought it was double AP not XP. AP can be used to buy stuff as I over 1100 CP I want to be able to buy stuff for XP to :)
    Grinding just make you go in circles.
    Asking ZoS for nerfs is as stupid as asking for close air support from the death star.

    Yes, I know it's double AP this event.

    I was really referring to the OP about how there's no double XP for killing stuff outside of Cyrodiil during this event. :)

    EDIT-- Also, it's double AP and XP from killing players in PvP, not "double AP not XP." :)

    Who said I hate PvP. Are you going through your life all the time with your imaginary constructs of what other thinks for which you have no insights at all.

    I said it needs to be canceled as you are all bunch of nerf/buff whiners making this game broken with endless butthurt requests.
    Also, if you are not living in your imaginary constructs, you would see that I said that I never tried it as I have no interest in it.
    If I do, and decide to put time and effort in it, are you so sure that I would not trash you every time I see you, you the best?
    Don't worry tho, I don't intend to.

    Blames someone for using "imaginary constructs of what other thinks". Continues to do just that by calling all pvp-ers "bunch of nerf/buff whiners making this game broken with endless butthurt".

    Yeah, great way to validate your argument!

    But that is not imaginary or putting words in someone's mouth.
    Just scroll the forum threads.
    Oh boy...

    Oh, but it is. Just visit Cyrodiil one time and count the players. Now put that into perspective of how many of them whine on the forums.

    Oh boy...

    On the other thread about open PvP world, someone said it is empty mostly.
    Also what to see there.
    Nothing. Bunch of dudes comparing imaginary ballsacks.

    :#

    Ooh, someone else said it's mostly empty, so it must be true! Well, if it was mostly empty there would be a LOT less complaining on the forums now, wouldn't it?

    But I see what you are doing here... If someone else says something that fits your narrative it's true, if someone has a different opinion than you, it's not true. How convenient!

    Come again with those "imaginary constructs of what others think". I am having quite the laugh here. :D

    Wrong I am a PVE player that goes to Mayhem every time they have it. Thats the only time I PVP.

    Try it you will be able to get Rapids, Vigor. and Calrops and other skills that work in PVE unlocked on characters.

    Will you die? Yes but its only a game.

    Oh boy...

    100 people on each faction at prime time.
    1k people maybe who play Cyrodiil regularly.
    And yet pvp whines about nerfs louder than PVE and the skills get changed accordingly. Which is why pve resents pvp community. I play both and don’t ever call for nerfs.

    Pve is the more populous and therefore more important portion of the game yet they are constantly being nerfed because of pvp balance. To pvers it feels like tyranny of the few. To top it off, pvpers actively discourage and harass people who step foot into pvp for the first time.

    This thread isn’t low quality bait, you got the frothing and the foaming without objective reason you were looking for op.

    I'M not sitting on the sidelines. I've just spent about 4 hours in Cyrodiil on the EU server, and had a blast. I got killed three or four times, but I also just barely escaped a few times. Did about half a dozen or more scouting missions, ran with a zerg or two to take resources and keeps, discovered three or four locations, and grabbed two skyshards. The only reason I left is so I can play for a few hours on the NA server, which is where my better main is.

    This is going to be a very fun event! :)

    If you're attempting to level, it's probably best to stick to BG's. I'm not big on PvP generally, but I don't mind getting in there and mixing it up for a decent incentive. Double AP and double exp are often enough incentive for me to jump into BG's, but probably not enough for me to PvP in Horse Riding Simulator Cyrodil.
