whats wrong with vbrp

hakan · February 2020

You guys shoupd know that if nobody does it, there is no reason to ask " have you done it before?" right?

I mean i gotta start at some point.

And yeah, i searched a lot. Most clans arent even doing trials let alone brp.

What do you mean nobody does it o_O I've done it earlier this week. Helped a friend clear for their first time.

vBRP is pretty much my favorite 4-man content. There's always a few groups running it in my PVE guilds as well as people up for spontaneous runs. They may not love it as much as I do, but I know I've also rubbed off my enthusiasm on a few.

vBRP is the kind of content that feels messy and overwhelming the first time, when you don't understand it... And then the second time you realize how smooth it suddenly goes and you're not even sure why! It's exactly the kind of content where the joy comes from realizing that you're now the one in control of the content. Good ***.

Anyway, the reason you may not specifically find a guild advertising they run it is because 4-man content rarely feels like a guild activity. There's probably small groups in those guilds doing it, or people interested (even if just for farming), but it's less of 'our guild has a vBRP group's and more 'yeah I think thatonedude and maybe otherfella run it sometimes'.

Just be aware that vBRP is definitely on the harder end of 4man content. Arenas are basically intended to be 4-man trials (even if vDSA hasn't withheld the test of time well). But since you're asking specifically for vet and not normal, I'm assuming you know what you want.

Good luck!

The obvious idea is to put together a group of folks who, like you, find nBRP super-easy and work on it together. Why doesn't that work for you?

(You DO find normal BRP super-easy, correct?)

I'll admit and say that vBRP is one of the harder things to find groups for. A group of all inexperienced people will need a lot of patience (and probably lose some ppl not willing to go through with it, then find replacements) to make it, which is difficult to find with strangers/PUGs. Finding experienced people who wanna teach you is probably even harder that way.
It's kind of a matter of networking/connections. If you've been in a few guilds, have a lot of friends, know what kind of stuff they do, it's easy to find people for it. Without that, where do you start?

I'd recommend trying to find guilds that specifically advertise themselves as teaching/training guilds, or guilds with mentorship-esque things going on. I see quite a few of those advertised in zone. They usually don't frame themselves as guilds that run hard content, but have a lot of experienced players who wanna keep it casual and love to help. If you're really trying to get into this kind of stuff, that's the place to start.

What platform/server are you on?

Right now there’s a glut of top level content catering for the most accomplished players

vLoM - just released new motif drops, which sell for a lot

vMF - just released new motif drops, which sell for a lot

IC - Bosses here drop Imperial Legion motifs for the next 3 days, which sell for a lot

Cyrodiil - double AP for the next 3 days and gold rings today, which sell and allow you to convert AP into gold

PTS server running new content for players who want to jump the gun on builds, motifs and selling runs

vMA still dropping arguably the best weapons in the game

Meanwhile vBRP will still be here in the exact same state in 2 weeks. And some might argue that the benefits/loot don’t match those of vDSA or justify the time compared to the rewards of the content above.

Maybe your best bet is to form your own friends/progression group and help build up the (rather small) number of players who can do this arena.

Good luck and have fun

vma dropping the best drops? well there is bow and staff. volley got nerfed so yeah..

people crying about brp daggers and staff being OP but i guess in game folks doesnt know about it? also that shoulder motif has insane prices
