    I will just say it takes 0 effort to not be a jerk and not ruin the days of some casual players.

    Sadly, too many players say "oh, but this is a PvP zone, so I am entitled to do this". As we've seen before, zos give you the choice to be an arse, but whether you take it or not, that's up to you....

    If your idea of a good time is to make someone else miserable, your life is lacking something.

    Same can be said about the PvE Fanatics as well.

    How about make the interior of the buildings where quest givers are sanctuary zones and add an item you can buy for a certain amount of AP such as 10k or 20k provide temporary 5 minute sanctuary upon consumption?

    Going into an enemy keep while this is active would remove the effect as to not be exploited.

    I like the idea of this but also making it work for Cyrodiil Delves. The reason why is well sometimes you go in to clear a skyshard and well some enemy player is there and at times have to make sure to avoid them or get well killed if they attack you. So for those purposes I would support this item that way delve achievement and skyshard farmers would have protection from being butchered and having to travel all the way back to the delve only to be killed again. Though it should only work in those kinds of areas.

    Open world still will be fair game to getting killed by other players. All it would do is protect you at quest locations and then the delves. Open world quest locations should be a certain feet away from a quest npc and that npc has a protection circle leave that circle and still get killed by other players. So it won't just be active everywhere just in some locations. That way its not exploited. Oh while having it active you can't attack other players for the duration or lose it. So that would be another draw back.

    Nope. Not the delves. That's a step too far.
    Making the quest turn-in buildings a safe zone would be one thing, but the delves in a PvP zone should retain the level of risk that is endemic to the zone.
    If people are going to go into a PvP zone to do PvE quests, then they need to take on some responsibility and prepare themselves for some adversity. It doesn't take that much effort, and it's not difficult to do.

    Expecting complete immunity for choosing to enter a PvP zone is asking too much.

    And I'm a PvEer.

    There is a Telvar Gathering Tank Build out there. You are basically unkillable, although you can't really do any damage. But you can absorb damage all day long if you keep your rotation going.

    That is the best revenge against gankers, not dying. They will leave you alone once their fingers start cramping.

    I`m guessing that you are referring to Imperial Physique, this set is for Imperial city.

    Though if they attack me or other AD players or the flag guardians they are toast!
    If by any chance you attacked the poor NPCs guarding the flags, you deserve what you got.

    The guards at the central flag in Vlas and Cropsford are fair game, since they prevent players from turning in quests. But fliping the flag over to your faction is a sign that you're pvping, so you're fair game then, too. Just kill the guards and turn in the quest.

    Oh wow, a gotcha moment.

    I didn't specify PvP or PvE, did I. In fact, I didn't even specify gamers.

    I think that's just inviting abuse by PvPers who aren't questing but just want to get out of trouble.

    This again, how boring.

    First of all, for all those "OMG THIZ IZ A PIVIPI ZONE OMG LOL GET OUTAAA HERE NOOB!": Like it or not, it's a MIXED PVP/PVE zone. Get that fact already once and for all.

    Second of all: "OMG LOLZ UZE INVISZ POTIONSZZS!": Yeah, do try to use them in the middle of combat against NPC's, see if you can.

    And third of all: learn to respect those who only want to PvE in that MIXED zone, and maybe you'll get some respect back.

    Personally, I'd go for a small PvE-only server set in Cyrodiil and the IC and be done with this stupid drama already. PvE'rs would be happy, and PvP'ers as well, maybe except those "heroes" who likes to hunt PvE'rs which have no voice in this debate anyway, for obvious reasons.

    Or at least do that in the IC. That'd be something already. I'll admit that Cyrodiil may be a bit more PvP-designed, but the IC is purely a PvE zone where they put one stupid flag per district and called it a PvP area. Heck, they wouldn't even have to change anything lore-story wise if they just added a few Alliance NPC's fighting each other here and there for the players to kill.

    And as for Tel Vars...I'd just leave them the way they're in the PvE IC server (killing NPC's give you some, etc). That way it'd be balanced between PvE'rs needing Tel Vars not having the need to go to PvP servers, and PvP servers having more risk-reward gains. Again, everybody would be happy.

    And fourth of all, stop being **** ridiculous and infantile like that, and let people to play the way they want.

    If you want PvP in PvE zones, that's what duels are for, where BOTH players agree to fight each other. But leave people to mind their own business if they don't wanna fight or play with you.

    ZOS please give questers immunity of some kind in Cyrodil. im sick and tired of getting ganked by [snip] just because im there questing. i leave people alone in do my thing yet they feel the need to ambush and attack for no reason, so far ive been done in by 3 playes some more than once even though i didnt fight back. one inside a quest hub, i left him alone and how did i get repaid? oh right i got ganked instead of left alone. i tried running but nope this [snip] just kept doing the [snip] spear then continued his own questing!!! rude to say the least. scummy yes..... this needs to stop. all factions do it granted but it still needs to stop. all some people want to do is quest quietly and not get abused and ganked by [snip] on a pvp trip.

    [edited for profanity and inappropriate content]

    I'm sorry that you feel bad, but that is how it works inside a PvP zone.. It's annoying as hell, but it's the name of the game in there.. I would never vote for a quester immunity, even though I am a hardcore PvE player..

    Also, forgive me if I miss something, but if the topic is still relevant and nothing has changed ever since the first creation of the post, then what's exactly the difference between resurrecting a discussion and creating a new one?

    if answer = null, then stop posting stupid necromantic pics already.

    If you're going into a PvP zone to do nothing related to fight other players you still need to equip pvp gear, relocate your cp (only costs 3k gold) and slot (some, at least) different abilities > you won't die easily when you may encounter other players and you will still manage to do PvE quests.
    Other option you have, if you're trying to avoid combat, is to try to do the quests in a low population campaign or at low population hours of the day (earlier in the morning or late at night > ALWAYS outside the prime time hours).
    Don't forget, invisibility pots are your friend if you think you can't confront the other player(s) at some point.

    Nice. Now our turn to tell you how you're supposed to play the game. Please do tell me what you don't like, and I'll insist on you playing it.

    Let me guess: surely questing. So go ahead, create a PvE build, learn all of the TES lore, and enjoy every bit of dialogue out there. After all, story mode is basically 95% of the game's content. So be sure to do ALL of it.

    People definitely must be talking some kind of Alien language every time anyone says that the IC is both a PvP and a PvE zone, because seemingly that little notion doesn't get hold on anyone's brain apparently.

    So, would you have complied anyway even if you didn't liked questing indeed? Good to know.
