Possible fix for Veteran content

Hi Guys, Im sure everyone has seen the VR content is killing the game thread. Well someone posted what seems like a really good solution in that thread (his name was Smokes).
His idea was basically this.
1-50 is as it currently is (level 50 comes after 49, not VR1)
VR content only goes from 50 to VR2
Craglorn can be used to level from 50 to VR2
Doing the other factions quests can also get you to VR2
Being that its only VR2 and not VR12 you could do this via PVP in a much more manageable way.
Now to get this to work, it would need to be arranged a bit like this (I imagine)
current VR5 dungeons become VR1
current VR10 dungeons become VR2
All mobs/bosses in your 1st VR faction, get scaled to VR1
All mobs/bosses in your 2nd VR faction, get scaled to VR2
Craglorn gets mobs/bosses scaled to VR2
Cryodil gets mobs scaled to VR1
With this you can see all factions content on one character if you want to, or you could create alts to see the other factions quest, if you prefer to do that. You could also do the whole of VR content in dungeons or via PVP.
I understand that many that have already done the grind to VR12 many not like the idea of having that rolled back, but you would still be max level, with all your achievements and all your gear, so you don't loose anything.
It gives us options.
So do people like that idea, please post below.

BSGDevastator✭✭✭I dont like the ideaSorry that I have to say I don't like it. The levels aren't the problem. It's the gameplay in VR Areas. Mobs too strong, having to help enemy factions, lack of character improvement, etc.
I'd rather see new skills / a 2nd morph / etc, which you gain by leveling up VR.V̜͚͂ͭͤ̈̌̽̏̈́̄͘͘͝ͅR̮͓͙̪̤᷊̭̯̉᷅̆̈́́̂̕1̴̖͓̹͔᷿͇̬̍̒̿ͤ̽̈́͠ ̧̙͉̪̤̙̫᷃͊̋̍̆̋ͧͭV̨̛̺̟̥ͫ̆᷅̄͊̑͌̃̓͟ą̵̩̠̒ͪ᷅̒ͫ͗̆ͨ᷈ͪ͠m̢̜̰͔᷂̱̀᷆ͤ͛̌͊᷇̈́̚p̡̺̼͕̣ͧͬͪͮ᷄̍̈̍̂͌į̠̦̖̰͚̒᷇̃̾ͪ͊ͧ̚͞r̟͈̣̭̂᷃̊̍̂͗̈̏᷾͗ͧe͢͏̗̱͚̥̜͙ͭ̃̒̋ͬ͢͞ ̴̺̼͇͂̿᷄̂̓ͤ͒̒̃͋͢N̝̯̹̩̰̼̑̿᷄᷉̃᷀̋ͩ͋ǐ̧̮̮̮͖̘̓͋̌᷅͆᷈̕ͅǵ͇̲͉̝̠̮͐̐̃ͯͫ᷾ͦ͟h̸͈̹̘̭̯̝̺͎͖̏ͬ̑̅̿t̪̠͎̲᷈͂ͯ̊ͭ᷇̀͗̅̕͠b̟᷊̻̹̝̑̌᷆᷁̂̃̈́ͩ͘͞l̠͙̻̪̣ͭ̿ͧͧ̈͛͛̒̓ͤa̡̛͈̠͇͚̮̬̔́̏̎̒͂̏ḓ̸͈̗͔̇̔̽͏̵̪̔ͪͨͥę͇͇̘̺̞̈᷈̒͐̂ͯ᷈ͩ͡3 -
I dont like the ideaChanging it now will just cause lots of bugs, just making it faster and dungeons grindable with repeatable rewards would be the best bet.Patch 1.2.3 nerfed the game....
Zergballing wrecked pvp......
Now waiting for Camelot Unchained!!1 -
Darlon✭✭✭✭✭I dont like the ideaThis doesn't change anything except some cosmetic veteran rank numbers...
The content itself doen't change... you still have to level through the entire other factions content..

You could do he main quests only and easily get to VR2. Or you could do dungeons or PVP. There are options. It's just 2 VR levels not 12. I never said increase the xp VP needed to get to level 2.1 -

✭Hum , i wont vote.
I can understand what you are trying to do , making it easier to lvl by doing group content or PvPing since now you will only need 2 VR lvls.
Still , you are about to *** a lot of solo players off because it is their content that will take forever to give them 2 VR lvls while the other paths do so much faster , one faction for VR lvl ... that is a lot of time mate :P."Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity."

if they would actually do this im sure they would balance stuff out and make it take forever to level the 2 VR lvls in pvp"imagine a world without elder scrolls customer support, i can't either"0 -

It's not really. If you did all of a factions quests you would be VR2 before the end of the second zone.
There would still be enough content in the other faction zones for 10VR levels, it's just the cap would be 2. You could do the other 8 zones at max level if you wanted to do them on your main.
I hope that makes sense.
