PVP love, QOL ideas

PvP as a whole, doesn't seem to get the love it needs. Sure, we get the occasional nerf/buff for skills/classes. But what about the QOL improvements that are missing. This isn't a PVE vs PvP post. I'd like to see some ideas from the group, ideas that can add small, yet enjoyable additions to our playtime in PVP. Now I realize that some of these things can be achieved via addons on PC. However, console players lack that ability.

1) Custom games.
I know there are many out there who love the PvP combat so much, they'd go out of their way to come up with some make shift tourney and try to queue up at the same time to try and battle. That's dedication. Deserves to be given at least a conversation.

2) Access to stats (In-game)
There may be a reason for it, but the only way to get semi-detailed stats for the game (on consoles) is going into the xbox companion app and checking out the 4-5 stats they list there. Cool feature, but why isn't something like that in game? I'm not vain, but like most competitive players, I'd like to know how well im doing by clicking a couple buttons in my menu. General stats like kills, heals, assist, (and yikes, even total deaths) would make for a cool addition. I know there are 3rd party websites and addons for pc that can achieve this, but for those who don't use addons or are on console, it would benefit them.

3) On screen UI notifications
In BGs, you get this reaffirming notification when you get a kill, or the wtf moment when it says you only helped with that kill when you did all the work. While I don't necessarily believe it needs to be as big and gaudy as it is in BGs, i would like to see a kill feed in the chat. And to go one further, maybe have a on screen kill counter that refreshes anytime you leave pvp/log off. Again, addons for PC do this really well, while its no option for console.

Yes i'm a console player, and my ideas are catered more to having inclusivity for all. I liken it to when there were no in-game damage number/indicators and on PC, you had to get an addon for that. Console was out of luck til they finally added it.

What are some other ideas from you all that you think could give some good QOL improvements? I may be in the minority here, but i believe there isn't enough focus on PvP. Doesn't need to be a main focus, but maybe add some things to at least let us know they're trying.

    Need a pvp crucible trial!!

    Have a gated off map with a special queue that brings in a sh** ton of 4 player teams now teams into a 4 v 4 format against eachother with fluctuating objectives flag, chaos, deathmatch with maelstromlike mechanics on maps sp players gotta watch terrain and opponents. Winning team goes on to face one of the other winning teams end and final round would be the last 2 teams standing as for rewards zos could slam anything from motifs, furnishings, a currency, ap whatever maybe a special weapon or mythic even.

    Also as an alternative to the above could have a labyrinth maze crucible like es3 bloodmoon final level. Scatter the teams across a huge maze like map where they intersect into arena rooms teams that enter get stuck in a death match can't leave room til other team dead and next teams can't enter til fight ends *gives ya a wild card opponent chance* and last team alive gets the goal everyone else gets whatever half the rewards or something.

    This would give some awesome tournament feeling and have a leader board for best teams.

    How about a 12v12v12 arena so ball groups can work out who is best. If they would take a break from farming solo players obviously :D

    Alessia bridge warzone. 24 v 24 v 24 (DC always end up there anyway for some reason) in a domination match for the bridge.

    Also, a faction locked campaign for no CP so players who want to PvP without cp points can choose between them like the CP players can, and to ease the queue times on PC EU which suck during prime time.

    As long as we will have 3 sides matches there will be no real pvp. We need some attention from ZOS as pvp players but it won't happen anytime soon.

    QoL changes? Being able to heal those in your alliance outside those you have to group with. 24 player group sizes.

    Oh wait.

    This is actually what I was going to type but without the sarcasm lol.

    Duels are fun and all but an actual arena would be great.

    Also ... how about an ESO Olympics? I know that PvP is thought of as who can kill the most opponents but there can be so much more to it.

    Competitive Speed Crafting
    Horse Racing
    Slaughter Fish Survival Swimming
    Find the Columbine
    Aedric Spear Throwing Distance Challenge
    Most Dummy DPS

    There are so many options.

    Also while I’m not sure if it fits here I still think there should be a once an hour random spawn of 500 roving zombies where 1/500 has a random gold drop and 499/500 have nothing. Imagine the hoard just randomly popping up at Bleakers during a siege. I’m sure the server would melt but it’s a fun thought.

    If I could get a heal from someone I’m not grouped with them maybe I wouldn’t be over healing myself in heavy armor.

    Dual Skill Specialization - the ability to swap specialization/build out-of-combat: pre chosen skill bars, morphs, attributes, & champ points.

    You are not right. This is a longstanding problem.

    I would love for daily crafting writ target items to stack. I know that there is a problem with stacking items that can be equipped, so maybe change the target item to a diagram/blueprint/etc item? Create new furnishings that look like items that would be needed on the warfront that cost the same materials as the current items. Make those items stack and make them the new target item for writ quests.

    This would save a tremendous amount of time that I could spend on other, more enjoyable aspects of the game.

    A new skill bar for mount riding so we don't have to decide whether to waste a skill slot for rapid maneuver.

    I rather have a Group vs Group Arena where you can choose the Numbers. Having three groups fight is always a mess.
