Hammer

I just returned to the game and notice this new hammer thing that just breaks through keeps. I'm trying to wonder why it would be added but can't think of a logical reason. So please tell me why this item would be added, Cyrodiil is already filled with large grps who need to work together to get a keep down. Now people seem to only go to search for this instead of actually pvping. This just adds too much ridiculousness and should be nerf'd, at least remove the damage output it gives to players and just keep it for breaking down keeps or have it so if you pick it up you cannot be grp'd with others. But that's just my opinion.

    People were complaining that ZOS added nothing new to PvP since IC. So they thought real hard on a way to keep people from asking for anything new ever again. And the game breaking lag hammer was born.

    Makes sense, I mean I guess they all sat down and put their minds together to think of something that would cause more lag, take less skill and just ruin what sieging a keep was but decided to add tons of damage to it as well xD

    ha :)

    very good, that certainly does explain the situation...

    what drives me nuts is that the hammer almost always ends up in the hands of the alliance who has the most numbers/keeps/emp...

    Avoid the hammer like the plague is my suggestion. Not only is it stupidly OP against players, but it's a lag fest.

    You forgot the part where it favors the already advantaged faction with the highest pop.
