Hey guys,

I have played the MMO Dark Age of Camelot and I really liked the RvR system the game had. Now ESO will feature a similar system, where you can raid keeps and gain alliance points for participating in the realm war.

In DAoC people also made groups and just roamed the frontiers in search of foes in order to kill them. They didn't necessarily participate in keep raiding or so but simply roamed the pvp zone and try to find enemies to kill. Groups like this, with communication and skill could easily defeat 2-3 full groups of "randoms" and it was a lot of fun to, for example, surprise a large army that was about ro raid a keep and ambush them with a small group of people and kill them all with aoe effects and stuff.

Do you think this kind of RvR gameplay will also be possible in TESO ? Do you think players will be given the tools to be able to defeat larger groups of enemies if you play well enough?

yes.

Hey man, welcome to the forums.

ESO will bring the return of the 8-man, WOOT! But yea, I'm sure it will be possible as there will be plenty of AoE's, as I understand it, so a strong 8-man should be able to accomplish this. It should be noted that there will be smaller capturable locations, such as farms and mines for 8-man groups to compete over, and taking too many around an enemy keep will starve it out somehow, (probably by killing off the NPC-guards). They say this may even be a better strategy for taking keeps than attacking them directly...

thanks for the welcome

return of the 8-man? that sounds good! how do you know this? has this been stated somewhere? I read the interview with brian wheeler but couldn't find any mention about the group size and that type of rvr gameplay
