Dear @ZOS_GinaBruno,
The no proc Cyrodil has been a lot of fun, and even though I'm one of the people that have been asking for a no proc PVP environment, I'm still surprised by how much more I enjoy Cyrodil's combat without proc sets. Now, I very much want to experience no proc ESO pvp in different environments. I'm sure I am not alone.
In a couple months, procs will return to Cyrodil. When this happens, it would be awesome for us to have a one time, 1 month no proc BG test. I anticipate that the benefits of no proc pvp will shine even brighter in the pure even numbered team fight environment offered by the BG, and it will be very enjoyable even for those who are currently skeptical of the idea.
1 month long, limited-set (pure stat sets only) BGs, with double AP and XP from bgs.
And when that test ends, maybe a 1 month long limited-set Imperial City test with double TV. That would be the cherry on top.
Hope you'll consider it.

That would destroy BGs for a lot of people who enjoy them for what they are. The current BG community on my server has, from what i can tell, entirely different priorities & needs ranging from deathmatch-only-queue to custom arenas (just to name a few). Ive not once heard any familiar BG veteran state that they want a no-proc BG test, quite the opposite to be honest.
This is the first patch where actually every playstyle is viable in nocp BGs (full stats, full procs, hybrid), yet you are running around demanding new limitations to suit your personal agenda.
I'm a BG regular, let me assure you, I WONT enjoy no proc environments for many reasons, most importantly because ZOS is now balancing the game for years with sets (they even said that they intend to do that some years back). Current class balance without access to all sets is absolutely terrible.
I dont want BG lobbies to be filled with 8+/12 magsorcs and rest stamina nerds. Anyone who played ESO since 2014 knows thats what happens when you empower stat based gameplay too much in eso - suddenly everyone is either a) a magsorc or b) generic stamina.

[snip] ZOS has stated years ago that they plan to shift their balancing efforts onto set based balance and they did exactly that. It is not 2014 anymore. Most (magicka) setups absolutely rely on gear choice to fill holes in their kit.
I feel outside of the forums where a very loud minority is campaigning the no-proc mantra, theres very little excitement for that kinda ruleset in the actual game, especially amongst the bg community (which you are not part of, at least on my server).
But even most cyrodiil only players I talk to & streamers I frequent seem to be very tired of the no-proc meta already - yeah sure, it is different and was fresh for a while - but it is also very one-dimensional and leads to rather stale "meta" changes (magsorcs everywhere, some other setups basically vanished), less active & populated servers overall while promoting boring monozerging.
On the other hand BGs right now have probably the largest diversity of builds it ever had. Having options theorycrafting wise is truly enjoyed by many, for me personally its my main content - build something, then jump into BGs to test out how it performs and interacts. My sub entirely depends on that content being available to me. I know for sure theres more like me - who wouldn't suddenly "enjoy" having their main content being taken away but instead just stop playing the game.
We had enough testing, I am sick & tired of pvp venues being abused for that and the game experience becoming so unreliable due to the entire communication and decision-making around it being abysmal from developer-side. It is not the responsible thing to do, to force the customer base (or subsets of it) into test after test for more than half a year now.

You won’t find many people with proc sets in low mmr matches but once you hit the higher tier it’s nothing but proc sets.

It's an even bigger delusion to say that "all builds are equal now", when it is a fact that a good player wearing 3 proc sets will always beat a good player wearing full stats.

No proc BG's would be interesting to see and I wouldn't mind giving it a try for a month or so.

Am I in some kind of bubble?
Maybe, I play Xbox NA, solo queue, high MMR. There, the players who perform the best are not wearing damage proc sets, except for several mag burst classes running caluurions. Maybe some of them are wearing healing procs that are harder to identify, but I highly doubt it.
Can any other Xbox NA BG players back me up here? Am I the only one who feels like the BG performance ceiling lies with stat sets, or at least mostly stat sets and perhaps one damage proc?
