Ok I understand why we need Forward Camps

TheBull

AD is lost without them. The removal hit them hard. It's like they can't function. They haven't had a scroll in days.

Anyways, Wheeler said help is on the way AD!

I wasn't on when scrolls were taken but sounded like full pops of blue & red pushed AD gates at the same time. Not much to brag about if you stop to think a bit.

If FCs are coming back that's good. Our noble steeds deserve a break.

If you are talking Thorn, I think a fair bit if that can be landed on the purple alliance that is thorn.

Other campaigns are doing fine without FC's by comparison.

Purple alliance is a fact!

EU or NA?

The perception of the purple alliance is merely a perception the truth of the matter is very few player exercise their brain on the AD side. The perception of EP and DC in collusion is created by being able to A. understand strategy and overall goals. B. having the forces to deploy as needed when needed. C. faction cooperation. D. a true desire to win. E. knowledge of leaders tactics. and F. the profound ability to analyze, predict, and counter movements on the map. At anytime when AD decides to unite and function as a whole and utilize a sound strategy that maximizes on strengths and protects weakness or begins to think outside the box and employ unique ideas on the field that work towards mutual factional goals that perception will never change.

The profound ability to analyze, predict and counter movements?

When 90% of movements are south, it doesn't really take any profound ability whatsoever

This is so true... but the camps have nothing to do with it.. AD has the worst players in the game. Been that way from the start of the game. That doesnt mean that AD doesnt have good players or guilds but overall yes the worst.

When the game launched, AD had a lot of good players. At some point around the 90 day mark I think many of those players just left the game. Overwhelmingly I believe AD had the highest population in game up to that point. Now it seems the AD faction is a minority across the board. If you don't believe me I would suggest looking back through the old PVP server lists end of campaign reports to see how many were won by AD. I think that record would support a decline in the faction that coincides with subscription data.

Wheeler will save AD so they can continue there suicidal aoe charges and show us all how blobbing zerging and spamming the same 3 offensive skills wins campaigns.

As an officer in by far the biggest DC pvp guild, I can assure you we never have alliances, its funny because everyone says same things: EP thinks AD and DC team up.. DC says EP and AD team up ect ect.. you guys just need to understand that is the beauty of a 3 faction war, its a big triangle, everyone is attacking everyone.. just that simple..

Also on a sidenote.. AD has had about the same population as the other factions for the past few days, for those who are saying DC and EP were Pop locked while AD was low. Not true at all.

Not really sure what you are attempting to illuminate here but the last 4 days I have witnessed EP and DC spam-balling every fight. If the only tactic to counter this and regain points is to do it better than EP and DC then so be it. Apparently it is the preferred method of group combat. Of course there is always the small scale snipe engagements.

Lord Stark

If you really want to get down to why AD has struggled, its because of the loss of their infamous "Skelly" group, they were one of the more coordinated groups AD had to offer and most of the guild quit AD and went to EP.. that was a decent size loss.
That being said, They will be fine in the next few days and we aren't sleeping on them.

I watch the bars pretty consistently and you are right. We have not be low in fact the populations have been pretty even or in the favor of AD. I would say since population is not a problem or factor, then it must be coordination, or desire to win, or simply out classed. I would say than strategy of when and what to attack has played a key roll in the last two days or so.

The DiE transition was a swing of about 10-12 players. Not enough to even nudge the population bars. They are a good, well run team, though, and that has its own benefits to EP and is a loss to AD.

AD isn't without good guilds. Decibel is a very strong team that takes teamwork and coordination to bring down. Venatus puts in a lot of work and effort to help AD. TKO is there bolstering the ranks. Moonlight Crew is still running teams and fighting.

It's not as if AD has mysteriously turned into a bunch of PUGs now that DiE has transitioned to EP.

A patch with new PVE content just came out. A lot of people are PVEing at the moment. They'll return to Cyrodiil soon, as WRX implied.

I do think, right now, AD is still wrapping their heads around the new meta. I'm sure they'll come back strong once they've gotten it figured out.

Lord Stark

Oh trust me I know Agrippa, that's why I said we aren't sleeping on them

Yes, I'm sure AD somehow attracted only players who are unable to use their brain. That must be it.

As an aside, I do so enjoy making 'Lord Stark has lost his head' jokes in TS when I see we've killed you.

And taking Lady Stark to the Red Wedding.



All in good fun.

eventide03b14a_ESO

Please leave the forward camps out of the game. It's a much better experience without them. AD L2P please and QQ.

Lord Stark

LMAO! I'm not even mad... funny stuff. Ill see you out there

my god an EP that knows all the AD guilds. i feel so blessed right now XD. but yes your right we still have several guilds running. the big problem for us IMO is that alot of people are taking breaks atm, or trying to get the undaunted passives. that combined with taking both scrolls and crowning mojar right before the server went dawn was a bad idea. now we have managed to *** off both factions and drew their wrath. Now we have this awesome struggle to get back our scrolls (thanks patch for just giving us one of them). Seriously though sorry about the patch stealing our scroll.

GorraShatan

AD brings it on itself sometimes too. I normally play AD on Thornblade but was running with some guildies on DC instead last night, and kept getting stuck in fights with AD at Brindle, Ash and Nickel all night. EP was in the lead score wise and had the larger population. Go screw with them! Cmon guys.

Not massive zergs?

sirston

As an EP player on thornblade I have seen some good fights at BRK with AD but it seems to me that there are a lot less in numbers against us I don't know if it because of PVE or something else. over in EP we always knew AD had a good amount of guilds working together but lately with the removal of camps it seems to be benefiting EP due to the fact that most of the players kinda dealt with the disorganization of our side. we have now have about 5 good guild working together which is different feeling

I wish EP would zerg then we could defeat the DC zergers

Lord Stark

If zerging is a new concept to you or something you aren't familiar with at all, you have been spending your time in Cyrodiil the wrong way. If you are a hater of the zerg, you must admit that you are a complete and utter failure for not doing the research before buying this game, it was ALWAYS clear from the start that it was going to be ALLIANCE VS ALLIANCE... YOU FAILED stop blaming everyone else!!!
Zergs will never go away..
