option needed for who can use your siege

mook-eb16_ESO · February 23

Mayhem is very bad if you drop off your siege someone steals it, so no one wants to place non common siege. please add an option for who can use it i.e me, the group or everyone. ty

It's a pain, I agree, but if they're using the siege then it's still getting used. To me this only matters when someone jumps on your cold fire ballista or lancer. Then it matters. Otherwise the siege is super cheap to replace so it doesn't matter.

I see what you're asking though, and it would be a nice addition for limiting who can use our high end siege.

This is what I'm talking about
people on the event just grabbing everything because they only tourists

Honestly, maybe a group members only flag on siege could go a long way. the number of times Ive had someone troll my siege by hopping on and turning it around, or spinning them all 1 at a time and shooting them (forcing me to sit on one, turn it back, and lose all efficiency of multi sieging) or the new tourist who shoots at indestructible things and ignore all communications, or someone gets on a cold fire/lancers and just.... sits there. doesnt let you pack, forces you to pull yourself from the action and sit there repairing it (or worse, gives enemies time to come in and destroy it). Its quite obnoxious.

Totally open to better ideas, but a 'party members only' tag on siege id imagine is easy enough to implement judging from other games coding and from set bonuses applying to team mates in this one, and would at least force you to willingly have somone in group before they can troll you.

Big support, same-alliance zoners are bad enough, but then you have people on other alliances logging into their alts just to mess with your siege for some reason... it's very tedious.

Honestly they need to just enable you to pack up your own siege regardless if someone else is using it or not.

this would probably work, but it would allow us to pack up siege during firing, which I think would mess with the code in a way that could be abused or cause other issues with the code.
