Prime time pvp. EP in 3rd. What does DC and AD do?

DUTCH_REAPER

Push to EPs tri-keeps...at same time. Interesting. No salt. Because we pushed back. Just interesting that the number one and two rank would push number 3.

Karm1cOne

Defend your keeps. My 6 main raid took kingscrest and farragut and only 1 ep showed up to defend.

Dominion_Nightblade

Lol, it goes 3 ways buddy. Blues have pushed us while reds were going after our scrolls.. we have pushed reds while blues were going after their scrolls. They are just being opportunist. Attack the weakest atm faction. It's been team purple, green, and orange. I don't care what my fellow AD team members say... Blues DO fight reds, they are not buddies. All factions have ppl with friends on the other side..

My point is, get over it.. it's a way of 3 way pvp..

Lord-Stien

We miss you Dutch!!

geonsocal

The truth is you're the weak.

the wisdom of jules...

Ackwalan

Suddenly, some people changed their minds about off peak hours map zerging.

WuffyCerulei

It's also EP not caring enough to defend keeps, and people in a 15+ ball group farming a keep instead of helping to defend.

Ormtunge

I am not sure what server or platform u are on, but pvp in Cyrodil does not support any kinf of fraction loyalty atm, so u should not in any way be surprised unless u are new to Cyrodill pvp. The majority of players only want to farm AP, and doesnt care about winning any campaign. Unless ZOS implement some kind of faction lock this kind of behavoiur will continue until the pvp is dead:(.

This! I wonder if the EP population has gone down significantly because I don't see the old strategy of attacking an enemy keep to pull them from our keeps is working anymore

Also this is first time I remember that EP has been in the 3rd spot. Guess we need to learn to eat Humble Pie just like the other two factions I suppose!

The culture in this game is pretty crappy and a lot of players shamelessly take the path of least resistance for easy kills.

Like from a PC/NA/AD/Vivec POV, when AD doesn't have any groups running and/or lacks good fighters in general, all the decent EP and DC descend south, generally avoiding each other to stomp pugs look for, uh, "good fights."

Last night was like a Legend (as in the dueling guild) Roll Call south of the emp ring while the EP ball group running completely ignored the DC emp push. They knew AD was weak, so that's where they went to get easy wins and video footage.

I wish more players would respect the premise of the Alliance War and support their teammates, but these are crazy times and you can't expect much from people in terms of ethics.

EP keeps are locate so close it's faster to take them.

The current Vivec NA PC situation is that EP had dominated for a good 4 campaigns straight, and had become arrogant, lazy, and rude towards those that helped accomplish this.

Because of the actions of some, a couple of us have rerolled DC, or simply stopped PVPing. Without us "pug herders" (there's very few actual organised raids on EP anymore), they are left to wander and keep pointing the fingers at eachother in zone chat.

It's sad that some people have caused that much anguish that we have chosen to leave them, but after 4 years of EP bar a couple of campaigns, I doubt I will ever go back. DC has been extremely welcoming and I have loved being here.

Are you talking about in zone chat? What do you mean by this - just curious.

Zone chat, whispers, and dumb decisions arrogantly justified. It's very hard to organise people in a zone chat when half of them are trolls. Just got stale and hard work. No hard feelings though, it's just a game, and that's why I moved to DC, cos that's all it is and I was starting to take pixels far too seriously!

Talk to the griffs who showed up today to help the bloops PVdoor their way to emperor, steal all the scrolls, and then gate camp AD instead of helping their own faction.

This one streamed that by the way. Just in case anyone wishes to play the 'claim that the very real thing is as fictitious as the myth of good elf plans' game.

Then there's the matter of certain members from certain lag guilds running to hide in the safe space of AD zone chat whenever their blob isn't around....

Reverb

Your faction keeps pushing ales, Dragon and Warden. In the last week you've alternately held a blue scroll and a yellow one. Don't act surprised when the tide turns your way. Every night we all get a turn being pushed to our gates. If you take it personally that's on you

Delimber

Well tonight there was a point were in DC's zone chat there was a lot of talk about Santa Clause....

IZZEFlameLash

Happens three ways. This is why the map is threesome map.

BRogueNZ

I really wish I could have carried on dying continuously at anything that wasn't yellow today, however it seems my ISP capabily is directly related to how many assets AD own, somehow.

Agrippa_Invisus

Wow.

I step out and EP goes to hell.



j/k But I could tell it was starting to get that way. All the rerolls to be on the winning team were starting to crowd out the veterans when I retired. No experience, no motivation, and mouths that would write checks their skill levels couldn't cash.

It's a shame. I liked the EP that worked hard for wins six-eight months ago.

But this game has gotten so rotten at its core that even if the faction is perfect, it's not fun anymore. Quality of Life in Cyrdiil is bad. Really, really bad.

That's not what I'm saying at all, but you're a really good example of the point I'm making so thanks for helping

As an aside when I went to DC they were 2k points behind EP and caught it up to finish 2nd, and this campaign we're over 1k ahead

NBrookus

Lately EP just wants to run to Ales farm regardless of what's going on elsewhere while talking smack in zone. You don't win campaigns by potatoing into a resource all night.

A lot of EP regulars left for AD or DC, or just quit. On top of that, we have one organized mid-scale+ group on hiatus, another that has cut back their raid schedule, and a guild that ran large-scale+ has called it quits. Meanwhile, DC has gained a massive daytime presence and AD and DC still act like EP is dominant and will both push EP in prime time regardless of score.

But hey, tune in a couple of weeks from now and it'll all be different. I'm sure as soon as Murkmire drops the new goat paths will be wall to wall players.

Nope. Maybe Val you saw. Or a guildy who hasn’t taken off the tabard. But the guild was retired.
