Azura's Star Ps4 NA Ebonheart

Why is that our population is always maxed out but never and hardly ever see EP doing anything. AD zeros left and right all the time throughout the entire day and even DC has there iwn, but EP just does nothing. We let everyone take our keeps with ease, we always get pushed back to our last 2 keep more than anyone else. What is going on with EP?

firephnx4

We dont tend to defend very much it seems. It also doesn't help that blue and yellow double team us all the time.

firephnx4

Also we attack attack attack never covering our flanks. Add that with our factions obsession with emperor.

Bezz

Yeah I know hit if our pop is technically full why the f don't we have numbers, where is everyone?

I work a 3 or 4, 12 hour night shifts a week so I get on at random times. DC is the only one that's consistent. AD and EP go back and forth from Home keep to home keep.

deathscythe

This seems to be a problem for all factions fyi. Population cap and no one around.

In the campaign I mentioned ad is easily 4 to ep 1. That's just a fact. When ad wants to zero there is almost no stopping them when they get 50+ Numbers for ep in azura's is by far smaller than others and this is from entire campaign playing everyday through the latest 30 days

Then that's EP's fault. The population is locked almost 24/7, and when it's not I've seen Ep with 2/3 while AD and DC had 1/3. So considering they either are all always full or EP has more in down time. I know this because I can check it at 5-7 AM EST which I would consider the lowest population time on the entire NA server.

The most popular push time for EP on Azura's Star is 12 pm CST until roughly 3 or 4 am CST. That's when I've seen all the major emperor pushes as well as a lot of AP farming. Just to say, but rumor is all of our top 10s are considering leaving to another campaign since no one seems to listen when they make emperor or scroll pushes.

firephnx4

Well the thing is. Emperor does nothing for us. I know people are always like we get super awesome buffs. It only adds +35 hp per character level which isnt that great. Than the response will be well the emperor is awesome and can tear through enemies, while that is correct, our emperors are in the said top 10, and all they do is camp in keeps that keep them their emperorship. Dont let them fool you, all they care about is their ap.

If you've noticed though they all left for Chillrend. Like as of right now I'm at rank 127, and I'll sit solidly in the top 100 tomorrow, but all the major AP farmers left. Though Yizon wasted an emperorship too. We need to get Mort up to #1 and get emp again. He'd actually help us in scroll pushes. But just pay attention to those in our top 10 now. It's completely different names and its good cause we are also 1st in score.

If they all left for Chillrend I'm not seeing the effect. EP's been a disorganized mess the last few days. It doesn't help that DC and AD teamed up the last couple days but most of what I see is lots of arguing about what to do next that results in spreading too thin. Late last night/early morning we had the first good chance to get an elder scroll back from AD. Seemed like we had the numbers and the initiative. I followed a group and we swept up the resources then go to where everyone agreed to set up siege. We get there and we're alone. None of the other big groups that said they were coming came down. We setup ourselves hoping we'll get backed up, hold out for a solid fifteen minutes but eventually get whittled down. I have no idea where the rest of EP was. Nothing else seemed to be under attack nor were we attacking anywhere. Weird. And when I logged back in this afternoon all our gains were gone and we're pushed back to our last two keeps. Oh, and DC ended up with that Elder Scroll in the interim.

That's why nobody minds that they left Azura's. They just caused disorganization and frankly wasted emperor all the time. And here in Azura's we finally got organized as an alliance and did a scroll push and succeeded but everyone was fighting the entire time.

I'm EP and home in Thornblade and set as guest in Azura's, yellow and blue always play together...not sure why. I do love Azura's for the AP farm though. Man AD loves to die so much. Like little lemmings. I stock up on Cold Fire ballistas in Thornblade and then come to Azura's where I can actually use them. Get about 200k AP for a few hours..of them thinking they got us in our base. Honestly, I like it.

Haderus has been pretty fun too. Yellow and Blue aren't quite lovey-dovey over there so you can get some good AvAvA action going on.

AD and DC don't "Team up" in Azura's star. They both will focus on EP at times only because even in down time EP has more people. The map is a triangle, so unless you take most of the map an alliance on a corner will never travel to the adjacent side.

Haha we (dc) are always complaining about the ep/ad guild buddies from ps4 azura's working together against us.

That's a joke right? We get *** by the green alliance every single day. It's unreal.

EP does a good push every morning EST around 8 am or has been the last few days

Elder_Knight29

I even have a screenshot of DC and AD chilling together at Glademist. So I don't want to hear this bs of us teaming up with them against DC.

What's your PSN? I'll send you this screenshot of AD and DC just chilling together on horses.

That could be an isolated incident though. We see DC and EP chilling together all the time. I do have long time friends in DC that if i ran into I wouldn't kill.

That's fine, last night DC and EP were pushing on AD. DC wanted emperor and EP wanted our scroll. They were working together until the bulk of good AD people got on and all pushed DC and EP back. EP will likely never see the huge fights between DC and AD on the opposite side of the map. It's like that for all factions. Don't start acting like it all about EP.

No joke. I think it's a natural reaction when you're getting pushed on both sides though. I know last night when I logged into PVP EP had 5 scrolls. We and AD both attacked the crap out of them until we got some of our scrolls back so it probably seemed like we were teamed up.

Personally, can't speak to your screenshots but I've ran with multiple different groups and have never seen or heard of any cooperation with AD. We may have timed our attacks to when we expected AD to hit a different keep that had one of their scrolls in it in order to quit getting 100 EP defenders on the scroll, but that's just being smart in my book.

Elder_Knight29

In all instances I've played pvp and all my friends who are in guilds with AD and DC guys who are top of their leader boards have even said that those guys have legitimately said they'll run together. Like have you not seen those instances when AD and DC are both attacking us and they target solely us. Not one another.

firephnx4

What elder said. Ive seen multiple occasions defending arrius keep, where dc and ad have siege right next to each other and hitting the same wall. And its not just 1 or 2 people, Its always around 30-50 of both with 10+ siege.

13igTyme

On AD I've seen DC and EP team up, on DC I've seen EP and AD team up. When your getting attacked by both it will always look like 1v2. You don't see the fighting they do against each other though.

Which yeah I know but the real hitters, like the top of the leader board guys will legitimately team up and that blows cause most of the scrum aren't too much to worry about but when guys like Pyro and Bacon team up it is absolute hell. Like bacon can take out massive groups by himself but give him one of the best Templars in the game to help wreak havoc? Yeah it is the nearly impossible to stop them. And I'm not exactly just average ranking either. I'm a top 50 guy and majority of the time I'm running with people who only are pushing top 100 if not more around me.

Maybe they're friends? I had to create and AD character just so I can duel my DC friends. If this game had a duel feature like every other mmo, most people wouldn't need to do this
