Political Situation

What is the balance like between the factions on PC NA?

Dependant on time zone and campaign. E.g. US primetime Haderus is yellow, come Oceanic primetime it's blue.

AD needs you, Moon DiE. I've already expressed my opinions to Kaiz.



All the good AD PvP guilds have disbanded/quit. The remnants of these guilds(Alacrity/Decibel) trickling into RÁGE/Misfitz from what I have gathered. The only other guild of quality PvP players aside from RÁGE, is Tertiary Meat, and they are lucky to field 8 players on a consistent basis...



I do not care what AD thinks of you. You, should not care either. AD needs DiE to return. You can count on my support to bolster your guild's presence should you stay with AD.


I initially approved of Keiryan's decision to try and re-unite the core of No Mercy. But DC since then, has gotten an influx of AD/EP rerolls. Most notably, Vehemence's entire core. The Deci/Alacrity members that did not join Rage, have also rerolled DC. While the DC faction as a whole like to bicker amongst themselves, I have noticed from an outsider's point of view, a very vocal and compassionate player-base. They have good leadershship... if they actually stop the in-fighting.



I feel that now, AD is at it's weakest. And it is in my opinion, that AD needs your leadership now more then ever.

AD is not even a faction currently. They don't have anyone who fields the numbers and skill to take on the heavy hitters from DC or EP. Decibel was the only one, and they're gone.

I'd welcome a yellow resurgence that didn't involve another guild rerolling somewhere.

^^ Agreed with posters above, AD needs a stable presence of an organized guild. They just don't seem to have as many anymore and it's mostly EPvsDC on the campaigns

It's tough to call. EP struggles big time without Haxus or GoS present. AD doesn't exist where Salix or Crown isn't. Same with DC.

It would have to be yellow or blue overall though. Probably different depending on which campaign you're going to play on.

The political situation is that the guilds run the show on all alliances. Now, I think 9 out of 10 times the guilds do what is best for the guild (obviously) and that will coincide with what the map needs for the particular alliance. But there is always that one time where guilds might run off to get their AP or have a jolly good 'ole time somewhere and it will affect the alliance and map at that very moment.

I can't speak to ALL the guilds in ESO because they are numerous and I have no idea who they are or what they do. But to the larger more prominent guilds (the PvP ones) it is in my opinion that is a clown show. Its always that one court jester leading the show and he/she wields power because a flock of players are not too far behind.

Right now EP can paint a map red on many campaigns. The AD can as well, but maybe as of right now can't extend their arms quite as far as the EP in terms of shear numbers. The DC of course, are outnumbered against red and yellow more often than not. There are times when in Azura's and Trueflame DC can have equal populations. But that's not to say its an equal amount of DC not in Imp City fighting the wave of red and yellow above ground in Cyrodiil.

There are really FOUR alliances in ESO. Daggerfall Covenant, Ebonheart Pact, Aldmeri Dominion, and Publius Scipio. See, I didn't come from the world of online games, I don't have this opinion (a crazy one at that) that these players, guild leaders are some cream of the crop celebrities or something. I have ripped dissident DC, and anyone who has been to the forums know I have ripped EP and AD en masse! No one can deny that.

You want the real distilled idea of politics in ESO? The real hard truth? You have one "leader" running around barking orders through a TS and all the lemmings following. Give me the gear, maybe even some more champ points, and I can sit there and follow "orders" from the "leader" just like the rest of the chooches. I will press that key firing off that skill as good as anyone gosh darnit!!!

I HAVE SINCE BETA ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAY ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS SPOKE ABOUT THE COVENANT AND WHAT'S BEST FOR IT. I never sat myself in front of the computer and mindlessly farmed for hours on end. I never ran around with the idea of maximizing AP. It was, is, and always will be what does THE COVENANT need on the map at that very moment.

All you "celebrities" in ESO.... You want to rate celebrity? I am Al Pacino and you're a cast member of MTV Real World.

I AND I ALONE MADE THE WORDS BICEPS, FLEX, and GREEK YOGURT ALL HOUSEHOLD HERE IN ALL OF ESO! Alone! ME!!! Without any twitch streams, without any uploads, without going to Gamestop, without getting Taco Bell while on a 10+ hour marathon of ESO for emperorship, etc, etc, etc....

@Publius_Scipio I really have a hard time working out if you trolling or not but have to admit you always make for an entertaining read.

The current meta is @Publius_Scipio, and none of the theorycrafters can find a way to recreate it.

And inbetween those two the map often goes red, like on Monday ...

I always liked you grandpa. You always kept your nose down and there was always a sense of honor about you.
