Is there a dominating or overpopulated faction ATM?

Pretty much the title sums it up. Starting the game up and I want to avoid joining the overpopulated side.

    Ebonheart Pact is overpopulated. Aldmeri Dominion is pretty stable, but could use some help. Daggerfall Covenant requires the most players as of right now.

    Depends on your AVA campaign.

    For a long time, Aldemeri Dominion (AD) was the dominant .. umm... massive of people force, even if the killer bee swarm (AD is yellow) were not always winning. Rumor on the forums is, some of their bigger guilds re-rolled to Ebonheart Pact, so its now got a lot of red swarm. (EP is red on the map.) Still waiting to hear they got bored with EP and have headed to Daggerfall Covenant (DC). I am expecting it so they can rack up AP on all three factions with characters on all three, by using their alts to flip the map.
    Power level to CP160 in a week:
    Where is the end game? You just played it.
    Why don't I have 300+ skill points? Because you skipped content along the way.
    Where is new content? Sigh.

    DC needs help. Since launch has been the most underpopulated faction and has only gotten worse.

    This wouldn't have been the answer a few weeks ago...be anybody but Ebonheart Pact. Many EP are great players and people, but they are greatly outnumbered by dishonorable fools infected with Monkey Spam Clown Car Ebola.

    It used to be the lesser beings(:D) known as the Aldmeri Dominion(AD). The guilds responsible for that have moved to the Ebonheart Pact, so, for you, EP is the faction to avoid.

    The faction that needs the most players out of the 3 right now is the Daggerfall Covenant(DC) DC is the least populated faction atm, and desperately needs more people. The dire situation for DC can even be felt in Blackwater blade(oh and yes, for those that doubted me; i did make a DC character:)) as DC is constantly out-numbered and in need of more players.

    For you, the AD or DC is your best choice atm.

    EP, aka, Everlasting Pulse chimps, is the faction for easy wins, driven by lagging out the server.

    On EU ad is least popated. DC is trainland (everyone plays in a choo choo train) while Ep shines with masses of uncoordinated players.

    1st EP with its organized zergs. Also the amount of pugs makes them almost unbeatable in the long run. 2nd and 3rd is up to anybodys opinion. I would have thought AD but the current situation on Thorn (NA) shows DC winning over AD.

    30 days campaign is a long one. If we had Arena style PvP the dominant faction could be something else than EP. Currently, I have no idea how DC or AD can challenge EP.

    Well, what happens in the battlefield not alone secure their victory. Most of the points come from scrolls and keeps, which we all know they weren´t too shy to cap ( at any given time). ;)

    Far less likely to have taken some of those without lagging the battles down to slide shows. clowncar behavior.
