PC EU, Wich faction is the most zergy? Pls be honest.

olsborg

Just curious what ppls opinion and experience is.

Derra

DC being yellow in the poll is so messed up. Please lock an recreate topic!

Chelos

Honest? LOL! This is the internet...

ToRelax

Well EP is like bringing as many players as possible into one fight vs DC who from my perspective stack up way more and spam heals vs AD who will gank you with a dozen people waiting in stealth...

All different, and yet the same

Maulkin

Depends what you mean zergy and depends on the campaigns.

AD are the most zergy from what I see, in the sense that they have plenty of people but they have the largest numbers of randoms, ungrouped players, gankers, small guilds etc. There are a few medium sized guilds at certain times, but overall not very strong guild presence in large-scale context. So not much organisation. Very large-scale focused in the past but most people that ran those groups/guilds got fed up or quit... or both.

DC bring the largest ball (or not) groups, across almost all campaigns. You can go into a campaign with population bars showing 2,2,2 and while AD and EP will be a zerg of randoms DC will be an organised 40+ man group mowing down people.

EP run very large groups in only a couple of campaigns: Azura and Trueflame. In those campaigns they behave pretty similar to DC but away from those campaigns they have little to no presence and behave more like AD (random zerg). The seem to have the smallest number of players overall.

Imo you just have to look at the buff campaign numbers to see who's more zergy

Soulac

both.

Junipus

No-one.

KenaPKK

If only solo and small group players who play on all factions voted in this poll, then maybe it would hold water. Until then, it's just mindless banter. If you don't play outside the zerg from all factions' perspectives, how could you possibly have an objective and informed opinion?

DC...

RAGUNAnoOne

Depends on the week this week it is DC last week EP. AD has the fewest offenses but when they do zerg they zerg harder than any of the other 2.

Master_Kas

DC has the biggest groups which plays in all campaigns. (PROOTCH, Legio)

Pact gets pretty zergy on Trueflame and Azura aswell. (NL, A8, Elite, Pamelas guild etc)

AD seem to have less zergs who are organized, tough sometimes they can have aloot of players (on azura)
On trueflame I see 3-4 diffrent yellow raids running around aswell. (EDC, Lux, Ronin)

It switches from time to time

Jules

I'm on NA but I voted DC because reasons.

Turelus

All of them.

Apart from Zenimax stealth patched in a feature which means you can only ever see a maximum of 12 people from your own faction on screen at once. As such your faction will never be zerging because you're always 12, no more.

@Jules It's ok it's correct here too

I am NA and voted EP. People go on and on about the big bad DC zerg, but I rarely see more than 48 stacked up in one area and those times I do it's for things like an emperor deposition or a scroll. On the other hand, I see EP happily stacking 48+ (white tabards ... dunno the guild) and moving around just for normal AvA stuff. AD stacks at least as hard as DC and for the same reasons.

A lot of people that whine about other factions' zergs are oblivious to the fact that if they are solo or in a small group fighting in a keep along side a big old zerg they don't get diplomatic immunity for their small team.

eliisra

Since 1.6 and onwards pretty much. DC has the biggest PvP population, most active guilds, communities, biggest hordes and double/triple raid stacks if you look at all campaigns (not just Lagzura).

All factions zergs when possible, so I'm not judging or anything. What I dont get tho is this absurd and self-glorifying underdog attitude a lot of DC prides themselves with lol. There's no common sense to it at all. Where does it come from?

My guess it's somehow related to the fact that DC one upon a time light years away was the weakest faction on a completely different megaserver(NA).

ThyIronFist

DC, one of the trillion reasons why I left.... try and take a resource with a small grp have to bring half their faction to take it back.

Nafirian

I left that faction because of dis.

Where will you go once you leave AD? :P

RinOkumara

i didn't see EU at first and was like, "Are these people ***?"

strikeback1247

DC is in my experience the most zergy and definitely the most hated faction for this and other things. I and most people I know hate DC with a passion.

I should grind out my mag nb and get some anti-DC vicious death.

Right now i just play where ever is fun atm EP DC AD Im working on a EP sorc ATM

NativeJoe

I've only played Azura for the last year. So, I'd say EP...

My reasoning:

DC are individualists... You'll see them in every delve in cyrodil, you'll see them in every corner of imperial city, doing whatever it is we do... Fishing, harvesting, exploring. random crap. BUT once you do something to our core keeps... That is when you sir have stirred the nest and every DC from every corner of the map will combine and you'll see a tide of blue sweep across the land. Leave us alone, and you'll pretty much see gank groups at the most.

EP: Hive mind. I havn't seen a solo EP in a while. if you kill one, there is 30 right behind him. They are unorganized, Zergers by the very definition. I call them the Skyrim kids...because everyday after school gets out the red tide comes in and the flow down to alessia and go to our ancestral battle ground of bleakers. not many of them are skilled from what I've seen, and are easily delt with 1vs5

AD: The min maxers, The elitists. These guys have the hardest hitting, hardest to kill, and straight up most lethal tactics in combat I have seen. The reason they arn't zergy most of the time (unless you touch alessia or take a step on their alessia bridge lol) lies in their very nature. They want to gank and solo and farm ap all the time. So you'll encounter small dedicated squads of them everywhere between keeps and in IC, Soloing, and whatnot. If you do encounter a zerg they are always coordinated BUT they Almost never stock up on siege weaponry..but so many times have I seen 1 sieger, and 15 cloaked nightblades around him. So when they do zerg it's a pretty cut and clear tactic, wipe out their siege and they have nothing to take a keep with.

Don't get me wrong. DC can and will ZERG, but it's only when you push them back you'll see the force actually get really strong. leave us alone and DC is more then happy to go fishing,playing the lute at bleakers, picking flowers, and of course our favorite location to zerg....bruma

Must be EU. On NA, there's a huge disparity between AD's organized groups, whether large or small, and their casuals. AD casuals seem the most casual if that makes sense.

ToRelax

This is an EU thread after all... though I wasn't sure with this comment, DC only zerg when you push into their territory? Maybe, if Chalman and Arrius belong to DC as well.

Jaybe_Mawfaka

never ever seen bigger zergballs of noobs than ep running every day, since 72 man groups is a normal practice tho.
More people => More fun

Aunatar

This morning I logged in and 4 different campaigns had DC emperor and all the scrolls. Like almost every day.
EP zerging can be pretty annoying too, it has a name and that name is Elite 1, 2, 3, 4, 5......

Bashev

On EU definitely DC zerg more than EP. I cannot say anything about AD because I play AD and when you play your faction your mind do not give you correct judgment to the numbers of your faction.
