Ashamed to be a member of the DC

More than a few of us post from our phones and, I imagine, others like me don't see the sigs of posters.

In my experience EP and AD are the Zerg Masters. When I play in Cyrodiil we don't have as much players like the other factions. I'm DC by the way.

DC on PC NA Azuras star has been zerging for a couple weeks now. I think it's two guilds as one is lead by a master pug herder (whenever we fight his groups there seem to be always a tight group of 24 or more plus randoms following him around) and the other has probably 16 people spamming steel tornado in their group. It might be the same people but I've noticed a difference in numbers whenever we're fighting them. Both are challenging when we fight them with our own full group. I'm glad DC can field numbers again. Now if only we had a chance at defending them from taking scrolls and crowning emps without having sleep deprivation

How can, the least poped faction in the whole game (DC), be zerg masters?

Last night on Azura w had Haxus running around (good on them they were small). We were defending our last emp keep ash and whatever we attacked EP end we would be swarmed with 30 ants flying off the walls.

Now ok, it may be the same people you say. But it wasn't. My damage logs were mostly from different names I had not seen before. All of this whilst Warden was under attack and a further group of EP was being wiped on Ash's grounds.

I have had some awesome sessions in Cyrodill over the last few months, joining random groups to attack and defend, I have also left some groups that just want to play hide and seek in the long grass, but as of last night, EP were dominating the map and they did it well, mass groups of warriors determined to ride over anything in their way.
I joined a group of about 19 players, we were defending Fort Warden, most of us were on the keep wall, lobbing whatever we could find at the attacking hord, but our numbers where just not great enough, they penetrated our outer wall, I ran to the inner keep only to see my group running out of rear of the stronghold and riding away???? only a small handful of gamers were left defending our keep.
We lost the keep and I was forced to respawn at our starting point, I could see my group hovering about at the scroll temple of Ni-Mohk, so I rode out and joined them there, within a few minutes of joining them our temple came under attack, the red flag buggers were after our scroll! a few of us started to battle with the horde, I fell to an arrow in the knee and had a look about to see if I was in anyway revivable, but guess what, the group had again run off into the distance away from the battle????

If your not going to fight, what's the point in grouping up in Cyrodill? or even entering the place, your only filling up spaces that could be used by people who actually want to play PVP! the only other thing that got me was I had to cue to join as the server was full yet after spending over 2 hours trying to find groups who would help me attack and defend I only came across small groups who either ran away or as soon as they got to the sewer entrance they left the group????

I am ashamed to be a member of the DC...... well done to the EP who fought with strength and honour!

The DC do that, I have noticed each alliance seems to do something better then the other 2

- DC are the Zerg Masters but 1 on 1, most people on DC can't fight at all but those that know how to fight must be avoided at all costs as they will usually win most 1 on 1 encounters, they have the weak are useless and are more useful when they are not clogging up the campaign and the strong are unbeatable and can take several players at once mentality thing going on.

- AD lacks coordination but are masters of the Ganking manoeuvre and many appear to be very sneaky they will usually try to attack the keeps you will least expect, they also seemingly have the number's advantage.

- EP seems to be quite powerful 1 on 1, they are somewhat good gankers and good at keep defending but most don't bother with it because the majority are just too lazy to do anything.

Well some people actually like to face skilled opponents and have fun battles not like to have to fight 60 EP to their group if 24.Also When EP no longer have to outnumber Players 3-1 to actually kill someone. only faction that should be ashamed is EP.

Yeah, yeah, keep pretending there's any difference between the way factions play.

As long as you stand by your comment that it takes as much skill to run in a 24 man group as it does in a 4 man group your opinion is invalid.

+ your EP and I think 80% of the time I've seen you it's been in a Zerg.

24v24 is no different than 4v4, apart from the game's performance. It still comes down to skill.

And yeah, all I ever do is play in zergs because my dual-core Celeron from 2009 really loves to run ESO while I play in big groups and 3fps. I totally do not play solo or small scale most of the time because that actually lets me play ESO at a semi-decent framerate.

Keep pretending!

So spamming steel tornado, purge and heals is the same as a 4v4 fight? Your seriously kidding yourself on here.

Almost all the time I've seen you it's been in a Zerg but I'll do my best to screenshot it for ya the same as when I found you exploiting on top of chalman milegate after you spent months calling dc a disgrace for using that too.

Continue being a hypocrite if you like but I'll always to be here to remind you of it!

Mission Accomplished.

Thank you, too bad you are so easy.

Usual useless reply from you, couldn't have asked for more I guess.

Amazing comeback. You KO'd me big time.

Keep pretending!

I can continue all day about how you have no right to call DC a disgrace but discussions with you always seem to end with you either giving up or blocking me (which I'm surprised you haven't already done) so I won't waste my time! Just love watching you being a total hypocrite on the forums in front of everyone. Even your 'smart' replies are as amusing as our in game talks which again result in an ignore, let's be honest here, one of the most cancerous players on EP coming to cry about DC on the forums is hilarious.

hammayolettuce · October 2015

A great deal of the anti-zerg pundits (both red and yellow) now trying their damndest to shame people that run with multiple large groups -- zergs if you will -- answered DC's own anti-zerg baying not even all that long ago with (in a nuthsell)"It's not our fault we're more organized than you." They also like to pretend that their factions do not, in fact, quite often run multiple large groups and ignore their own pug aggro.

Sometimes one can only shake their head and laugh and the lengths people go to in order to justify themselves.

Yeah sorry cant back you up on that one, If they bailed i would assume it was to save a potentially more important strong hold. If it was yesterday, it would have been to save the last remaining emp keep... as i remember that happening around the same time. Red was all over ash like fat kids on cupcakes, and yellow was attacking warden for the scroll.

DaveTheMinion · October 2015

The numbers game.

Well I need to apologise to anyone I offended by saying that we had just as many people playing as EP, for two days now I decided to ride around and sneak when called for it and try to find out about numbers playing. For the last two days I have come across a couple of 20+ groups and some small roaming groups, but the amount of EP players I have come across, well lets just say I was gob smacked, no wonder they can attack DC and AD at the same time in force and even then I think theu had numbers to spare.
I went to check on the server count and it informed me that all factions were full (PS4 EU Scourge) I wonder if @ZOS could give us the actual count of faction numbers for each campaign instead of saying full, or at least break it down into smaller segments instead of just three?

I did bump into a couple of groups who did try and hold of the attackers even though we were well out numbered it was great to see my faction not just rolling over and letting them have anything they wanted without a fight.

Right, as for Zergs, who is the best, well you all know my opinion on this and I think it is a disease that is spreading and will only get worse unless something is done to stop it, but that's just wishful thinking, anyway we came across a group yesterday who seemed hell bent on camping just outside of our main areas, this went on for over an hour.

We won the last campaign on Azura's OP and we're pretty far in the lead in this one. Sure it is a numbers game and we never have enough to attack both factions at the same time like EP but at the moment at least we're winning by pure tactics and not numbers. One single DC PvP guild is responsible to crowning every emperor this campaign.

I actually know the leaders of those EP groups just by spending time on the field. Some of them are PC transfers and it's hard to take them out 1v1 simply because the second you touch them you are swarmed instantly by 20 people. Never stops me from trying though.
The skill level of the individual zergling is very very low though use that to your advantage. I actually managed to get 10+ plus people to break off from the main zerg and follow me the ENTIRE way around Chalman Keep while every other defender flanked what was left and took them out.
Never amazes me the lengths a massive group will go just to kill one person lol.
My best moments in this game we're in a group of no more than 4 people or solo. And I know many DC players than run this way too. The average skill level of an individual DC player I can safely say is higher than AD or EP just from personal experience 1v2 or 1v3 these people. If you spend most of your time in a massive group your not gonna get better or you won't ever need too.

I think I did specify that the campaign in question was PS4 EU Scourge not Azura's, I have alts in both campaigns and from what I can make out, there is definitely more EP than the other factions, as for people saying that larger groups will never be any good at PVP only those that 1v1 etc have the skills needed is a fair enough statement but not entirely true, there are plenty of good gamers out there who just seem to be struggling with gear drops etc, RNG for myself has been a complete disaster, so I have had to resort to using whatever I can make or buy and even now I have not yet managed to obtain all what I need, I have joined guilds that lasted a few months before being shut down due to lack of players, I have joined some larger guilds that require a fee each week which is ok if your making money but for the casuals this is not that feasible, then there are the gamers who are good but complain about getting beat down not by skill but by CP.

Over the last few days of making this thread I have learned that there are people who are dedicated to their faction and there are those who are only out for themselves and I think this is something I wanted to change but looks like that's never really going to happen but it was worth a try, I myself will remain dedicated to DC until the day I stop playing, if you have a DC guild that is dedicated to the cause then please chuck me an invite, I promise to fight side by side with you even in the face of death, you will not see me run away!!!

They gave the paragraph of each faction population. I think it was last winter or so. The campaign was Thornblade NA. The blue line was almost every time lower than yellow or red. The red line had sometimes double the population of both AD or DC. So with very good conscience, one can assume that EP had/has/will always have the biggest population in NA. There is no reason to abandon the ship of DC if you got balls of steel to tolerate the numeral disadvantage.

Winterpsy · October 2015

Heya,

I play on the EU server PS4 too. Usually scourge, Ebonheart faction.

I dont know whats going on with team blue, but they tend to be very disorganized often. Compared to the yellow team who keeps giving us a hard time. I was wondering if they lack organized PvP guilds with proper communication.

Let me add there are a few times when some miracle happens to blues and seems to use superb tactics.

What your witnessing is the fact that blues only have a proper organised presence on Azura's Star. We just don't have the numbers

I personally have only ever popped on Haderus a few times to farm reds for stones but other than that my main PvP-ing is only Azura's.
We're still the only faction without a buff server. EP has more than one :P

10.22pm GMT PS4 EU Scourge campaign
Location: Fort Aleswell

Not sure I will walk right for the rest of the week but thanks go out to EP for killing me with respect

although I wonder if they must of thought I was off my trolley?

I could see the keep being attacked from looking at the map, I jumped on my trusty donkey and rode like a grand national jockey to the keep, I managed to make it through a side door and made my way to the outer keep wall where I set up my Balista. for a moment it looked like a scene from LOTR at Helms Deep, although this time there was no elves, Aragorn, Gimli or Legolas to help me out.
EP were through the door in no time at all, I jumped off the wall and ran like BOLT to the inner keep, I was manning 3 Flaming Oil and one Ballista, but there were just too many of them, it was at that point I realised I was on my own, not a single member of my faction was there.

The enemy came up the stairs of the inner keep and we met face to face for the first time, what they must of been thinking when all they saw was myself, they must have been rolling about laughing, anyway, I dived into the main pack and with a blink of an eye I was looking up at the stars just waiting for the routine T-Bagging, but what shocked me was a few of the EP were praying at my body and then they buried me with honour, there were torches to burn my body and some guy was reading from a book.

I know it was stupid of me to even try to fight such a large horde on my own but the way I saw it, I was not going to let them have the keep without some kind of fight albeit a pathetic effort from my behalf
