I'd love to stay up and get AP defending against the baddie EP zergs, but alas... my pillowtop calls my name.

Suddenly a wild EP zerg appears

It casts PVDoor

It is very effective...

"AD sleep" spell too stronk, need nerf

LOL still not impressed w/ Red's showing tonight. You will always be the AP piñatas we dreamt about.

Sleep is for casuals ;p

Wow, soooo many AD last night/early morning. Awesomeness.

We basically annihilated any group we came in contact last night and you guys want to call us AP pinatas?

Maybe it wasn't your squad in particular, but the huge ticks my group was getting from farming you guys all night said otherwise

I kept hearing in Zone Chat that AD was crushing Red in the south while we pushed blue, took back our scroll and another, and took all the blue keeps along the scroll paths. Then AD came and ninja'd Alma Ruma from DC because we had just taken Chim. We were able to secure Chim, get back to the 2nd scroll and take it from AD and down it.

Last night was pretty awesome fighting imo.

Unless I know who you are in game, this means nothing. I've not come in contact with any said group.

You're welcome.
How about that red map, though?

I see no red map. All I see is that EP seems to zerg the server as soon as the DC/AD guild groups log off or shrink down to miniscule in size.

Clearly unimpressed with most of the EP players. Without Hijinx...EP is pretty marginal on the whole.

Lol, yeah, because 8 players carry an entire faction full of thousands. Hahaha.
All hail Blue Team, though, right? Or is it ARM?

I would love to see this night-capping red zerg do anything with the AD/DC guilds online. Because honestly I highly doubt they can do anything against resistance.

Those 8-24 are more challenging to fight than the 'thousands of players' EP has PVDooring/zerging on Chillrend. I don't mind the easy AP though, keep it coming plz

Darkmage1337

Yeah, but that wasn't the argument. Team Yellow still has more population than Blue and Red. It's always been that way, since launch. Yet, it's still cute to see Yellow at pop-lock when Red only has 2-bars of pop; but, the map speaks for itself. :P

99% of AvA forum posts can be translated as:

"Everyone is garbage but me and my clique of who I like on other factions".

Aminals

All jokes aside, I'm pretty excited about the way they're changing the campaigns. Bow is indeed inactive, and always has been. And with two 30 day campaigns things actually might even out and could even become fair! Personally the most fun I have is during a good team vs team fight, evenly matched groups of unique heroes. As it is many characters seem built around either zerging or zerg busting, with play styles to match. Don't get me wrong I enjoy a good ap farm, but only if I'm the one outnumbered if you catch my drift.

Ironically most of the problems this game is facing (crashes/rollbacks) are brought on by players need to win the day. This is why I left Wabbajack after season one. We had our victory and most players left with the prospect of more interactive PVP and less loading screens. I believe this game can handle AvAvA just fine but it only seems to work when it emerges spontaneously, like that one time at the Chalamo on DB. When people deliberately zerg it ruins the experience, how can I respect my enemy when he’s hiding behind 50 other people? Furthermore it seems to take away from the very core of what this game is about. I mean just look at that picture of Cyrodiil. One guy’s hacking away with an axe, he’s shooting a bow, she’s casting a spell, nowhere do you see 30 guys stacked up in PJs pumping sticks in the air. ‘Min maxing’ for efficiency is great but only insofar as it supports an original character, IMO, and that’s what this game offers where other games don’t. I encourage people of all factions to have fun with and against one another so our battles can live up to the potential this game has! The allure of being the most dominant faction seems to be waning and in its place the incentive for more of a playground and less of a war.

Of course I play to win, as I’m sure you all do. I love neck and neck score boards too (even though it can get quite stressful when you don’t have time to play). But considering the fairly modest reward for winning a campaign, I’d gladly trade my enemies’ scrolls to play on a server where respect is maintained throughout the land, not only so I don’t have to read all the trash talk which degrades the ESO community so, I also like playing with and against people who are having fun and playing into the reality of the game. Let’s cut down on the malice, please. More bridge fights, more spontaneous duels, less hiding behind guards. I want to read a forum where people come to regale about that epic whatever which just occurred, not to brag about their factions combined epeen size

Let's try again: "Team Yellow still has more population than Blue and Red. It's always been that way, since launch." -On the game, overall, consistently, to-date; Yellow has more numbers than anyone else. Pure fact.

I was referring to when I logged online - Chillrend was pop-locked Yellow & 2-bar Red, but the entire map was still Red. (versus it being Red pop-lock and Yellow/Blue at 2-3 bar like the normal trend since Chillrend came out [that was the joke]). So there ya' go. :P

Only pugs and casuales play on (and with) Thornyblade, or if you want a 350+ que wait and prefer PvQ instead of PvP, or server crashes. You obvisously didn't see the irony of the joke, because a dozen or so pages of this thread has been "QQ - Red/Yellow/Blue this/that/the-other." But, please, everyone, go on. Continue to answer dumb comments with dumber comments, along with more sweeping generalizations and other illogical fallacies. *Insert Michael Jackson popcorn gif here.*

TLDR - Less QQ; more PewPew!

@Aminals has it right. :P

Chillrend has never poplocked AD before EP this cycle.

Btw, In those 'top-5;' 4 of them are me. So. Yeah. I'm PRETTY SURE I was in Chillrend. I don't even have a guest campaign set on any of my characters or accounts. And I'm in Cyrodiil practically 24/7, more than anyone, at any given time. So, yeah;

Also, to @Halrloprillalar, AD was in the lead after the end of the first Chillrend cycle and EP victory. Lol. So, again, wrong.
TKO wasn't even around much for anything the first Chillrend cycle, other than a few cameo appearances; you were too busy cradling your PvE buffs on the empty wasteland, known as Haderus, with the rest of Team Yellow.

We're Chillbreaker OG's. Get with it?

jeez what's ur problem hahaha. i've never seen ad have more pop than ep but w/e im not gonna argue w/ u crazy

Darkmage1337

My problem is that many of the people in this thread, and others (on all factions) are whining, moaning, QQing, talking trash, spewing out incorrect information, and using illogical fallacies to support their respective arguments/points. (of which are all anecdotal evidence, sweeping generalizations, he said she said, etc.)
When @Agrippa_Invisus, @Aminals, myself, @Bitaken to some extent, and other major PvPers, players and leaders of all factions said "hey, it's just a game; stop QQing and enjoy fighting your opponents, play for the moment of 'what's happening on the map' at the present time, etc."
I recall Dawnbreaker Reloaded having about 20 pages of just 2-3 people back and forth whining about "night-capping." And here people still think the world is flat. (It is nighttime somewhere, guys [Derp.]). It's the same issue with the same people, here on Chillrend, lol. Apparently we weren't past that, yet.
Anyways, yeah - I must be crazy for using logic/reason in my conversations. Lol?
I suppose the new image of EHJ is: skilled players with terrible attitudes, a huge ego of hypocrisy, and poor logic. (Do you see what I did there? [Another sweeping generalization.]) Yeah, stop doing it/that.

Darkmage1337

The only reason I even posted here today was because I read 2 pages of "Red is pop-lock on Chillrend 24/7, blah blah blah (insert QQ here)." And when I logged on for the day I saw Red at 2-bar with Yellow pop-lock, and Red owning practically everything. So, I thought it was quite humorous and I shared it here. :P I'm sure their pop-lock only lasted for a few minutes, as usual. Or it was some guesting zerg from Thornyblade, idk. But it was still good nonetheless. Yet, you want to spike an argument instead, and act like it never happened or something, lol. Who's the crazy one?

Well, as usual in the evening (lately since Hijinx is mostly on Hiatus with Agrippa on vacation) EP is down to BRK, Alessia and Arrius. I see no red domination pretty much anywhere when the guild groups are running.

They do outpop DC and AD in the late night and tend to take back the map - and then make us claw our way out of the hole they put us in - but this is what generally happens. You can call that a generalization if you like but it's what's been happening since the Krotha zerg showed up.

EP won the first chill solely on BOW being the home server of so many who came to Chill for any semblance of PvP.

But - the reality is I have a lot of fun in the evenings against most of these EP - though I do miss fighting TSYM lately and the great fights that usually are one small mistake leading to a win for either Hijinx or EHJ - but I enjoy the loads of AP we have been making in the evenings lately so I am not complaining one iota.

[Moderator Note: Edited per our rules on Rude and Insulting comments]

TKO picked Haderus as our home campaign after the end of DB as it was were our allies were headed and we expected it to be competitive since it was a short campaign and people wanting to get emp and all that stuff. So naturally once we rolled the map in about a span of maybe 3 hours because there was literally no one on there, we needed something else to do while we hopefully waited for other guilds to show up. That's why we guested over to Chillrend halfway through the first cycle. What else do you want us to do while waiting for something interesting to happen on our home campaign? Go PvE?

Darkmage1337

Yeah, basically, since Thornblade is 100% full and/or 400+ queue, Haderus and Bow are dead and/or one-sided, and Blackwater is PlayerVsGuards; it doesn't look like you have many options outside of Chillbreaker.
WTB 2nd 30-day campaign.

You're not getting your pve buff server. That is all I have to say.
