WHITESTRAKE'S MAYHEM TIPS & TRICKS FOR PVE-ERS
TIPS ON IMPROVING YOUR SURVIVABILITY IN PVP FROM PAIN IN THE AXE
GENERAL REMINDERS
-
CHECK YOUR TICKETS - you can only hold 12 and will lose them if you go over!
-
Before you buy from the Impresario, test the drop rate of event goodies - tickets are valuable so save them for the things that don't drop if you can!
-
Also, ask your guildies or check the guild bank - sometimes people have extra they are willing to share! Exhaust your options before buying!
-
Items purchased form the Impresario are BOUND, but items from coffer drops are tradable and able to be sold on guild traders
-
Your character must be level 10 to participate in any PvP activities
-
You will earn both AP & Tel Var from completing activities and killing opponents during this event. Both of these currencies can be spent on special items including style pages, Golden Vendor items, siege equipment, rare materials, gear coffers, pets, costumes, etc.
-
Want to make some money? Here are some of the best selling items to flip:
-
Runeboxes (Cyrodiil and Imperial City)
-
Hakeijo Runes (Imperial City)
-
Powerful Assault Ice Staff (Imperial City)
-
Deadly Strike weapons (Bruma - Cyrodiil)
-
BATTLEGROUNDS
-
You do not need to be in the same faction to group with other players
-
If PvP is not your jam and you get "To the Victor" (win three Battlegrounds matches) daily quest you can drop it and get another one - the other two quests are much easier
CYRODIIL
-
Arena Gladiator's Proofs can be obtained once per day (per account) from Gladiator's Rucksacks by completing a Conquest daily quest in Cyrodiil. Open your coffers one per day to maximize how many Proofs you get.
-
You can share daily quests in groups and progress will be counted for the entire group if you're in the same area so group up if you can to get things done quicker!
-
Not into close up sweaty PvP? You can earn [double] AP buy repairing walls and doors. You can also stand on the walls of keeps and attack with siege weapons.
-
Siege weapons and repair kits can be purchased with AP or gold from the Siege merchants at your main bases or at any keep/outpost/resource you own
-
-
Town dailies are PvE quests, but those spots are often camped by griefers so be careful!
IMPERIAL CITY
-
BANK YOUR TEL VAR STONES BEFORE LEAVING THE SEWER SAFE ZONE!!! Tel Var is the ONLY thing in game you can lose to other players. When you die you will lose half of your Tel Var currency. Go to the bank and deposit using the drop down menu in the 'Deposit Currency' screen. Tel Var will be blue. You cannot lose it from your bank, only on your person.
-
Siege of Cyrodiil Merits can be obtained once per day (per account) from Siegemaster's Coffers. So open your coffers one per day to can maximize how many Merits you can get
-
Strength in numbers! Don't be afraid to group up or follow a larger groups of people. It may save your life - and Tel Var!
-
Sewer and Base entrances are spots are often camped by griefers so be careful!
-
To get back to your faction base you need to go through the sewers. Need a quick port? Find a good hiding spot and open your Alliance War menu. Queue for any Cyrodiil campaign (ideally an open one) and you will be ported out of Imperial City and into a safe spot. You can requeue for Imperial City to get back to your base to finish your business. A few extra load screens can save some Tel Var! Like to live life dangerously? Plan on taking the sewers?
