The Vengeance Campaign returns with all-new options for use in mass battles across Cyrodiil.
Our effort to make Cyrodiil the best it can be continues—and you can help!
Participate in the updated Vengeance Campaign during its return on PC/Mac from today until July 8, 2025 to provide crucial data and feedback that will help shape the future of the Alliance War.
This time, console players can participate as well, offering information about console performance and enabling another segment of the community a chance to provide their feedback. The Vengeance campaign will run on consoles from today until July 9, 2025.
Vengeance Basics
For those unfamiliar with the last round of testing in Vengeance, here’s a quick summary of how to participate and what the campaign entails. To enter:
- Navigate to the Alliance War menu
- Either by pressing L on your keyboard or navigating direct via the UI
- Select the Campaigns tab
- Select Cyrodiil and then the Vengeance campaign
The Vengeance campaign is open to all players level 10-50 and introduces a special ruleset to the Alliance War, templatizing player builds to help improve stability.
- All players have normalized stats regardless of level
- Each Class has a modified set of abilities and items
- While in Vengeance, you cannot access your bank, vendors, or crafting nodes
- Only Experience Points, Alliance Points, gold, and Champion Points are retained upon leaving the campaign, and no items can be taken out
- The Champion System is disabled in this campaign
- All quests are disabled in this campaign
Upon entering the campaign, your character is changed to match a specific template for their class. As mentioned above, this includes pre-determined abilities, attributes, consumables, and item sets. It also includes a backpack of supplies that cannot be removed from the campaign.
Return to Cyrodiil for a new test
Note that the templatizing of characters is an experiment and does not necessarily mean that these changes will be made to the Alliance War in the future. By introducing templatized characters for this specific test, we can isolate the variables that impact performance, helping us plan future improvements.
New Vengeance Skill Lines
Whether Vengeance is new to you or a familiar warzone, you’ll find it a little changed this time around. Among the adjustments we’ve made after our last test are new Skill Lines included in the character templates. In addition to your templatized Class skills, you can also slot versions of skills from all Weapon skill lines and the Assault and Support Skill lines that offer better performance in mass battles.
During this test, you can unleash the elemental fury of a Destruction Staff, smash through shieldwalls with a mighty Two-Handed weapon, and more, all with significant improvements in how they perform amidst the chaos of Cyrodiil’s biggest battles.
Cyrodiil Scramble
Not only can you help make Cyrodiil better, you’re rewarded for doing so! A new set of Golden Pursuits, Cyrodiil Scramble, is running alongside Vengeance with rewards of Alliance Points and Gold. Complete various PvP activities from today to July 8 to claim your rewards.
To earn everything on offer (including up to a total of 300,000 Alliance Points), you need to complete 8 activities out of the 12 on offer.
