    Don't join EP unless you like being alone. Many of it's former player's have switched to the other alliances since there are pvp guilds willing to take in new player's and actually use voice chat.

    Idk wtf is wrong with EP but *** it, I'm just going to say it, They really need to L2p in groups.

    EP is doomed! Just check out the population at any given time compared to the other factions. It has nothing to do with "toxic zone chat"

    I recommend u to choose either AD or DC, they are better organized for pvp. Forget the EP, it has little weight even in random grps, only a lil piece of them are worth of.

    As scumbag as this may sound, I'd rather join EP for the zerging fest at least for right now. I always tend to go with the crowd that over-rushes the others, even if there's no skill there is just sheer numbers. If that's the case then I'll just join Ebonheart. Maybe when I become more experienced I'll join the more wise factions.

    So let me get this straight..As a majority, AD are mages/archers/dw thieves? And DC is more warrior-ish than the others? DC has a mage-killer so to speak, a heavy hitter race and a regular warrior race. Where does EP stand? It seems that Nords are heavy warriors, Dunmer are some sort of magic race with destruction and I don't even know that the hell Argonians are supposed to be. Probably the race I know least about.

    I am an Imperial, so technically I could be anything. I am a DK as of now (Stamina), heavy armor and heavy everything. Is EP a good faction to be in? As in does it fit?

    LOLZ; its ok bro N the N and D698XGr.jpg would be happy to have more s_____g zerglings!!

    DC was actually my initial choice, until I heard from literally everybody that they had the lowest player count and they always get rushed. Unfortunately in this game, it's quantity over quality.

    When DC gets highest pop maybe I'll be a traitor and defect :D

    From what I hear they don't appreciate tasty pie. You should have chosen DC-real men who like real pie.

    There used to be a strong alliance pride back when you could not easily switch characters to play on a different faction, before cross alliance grouping, and of course one tamriel. Ever since these updates, many of my friends are only lovely tired to their first faction. Most of my guild mates, like many have said, play the faction that meets theirs needs of the day. Whether it's to play with friends on EP, or farm ap with a guild on AD, it varies from day to day.

    So, you should pick the faction with friends or a faction that meets your role playing needs. At the end of the day, you will most probably make an opposing faction character.

    Meh, EP is starting to get back on track. A lot of guilds where taking a break. Havoc is starting to come back (after a long break XD) Which most EP players are very excited about btw.

    In TS last night we where talking about trying to make EP competitive again rather than spending all day everyday at Alessia bridge.

    We'll see.

    Yeah seeing some havoc players out and about is exciting! I think EP is on the upward trend. However we have a MAJOR deficit in organization during almost all hours of the day besides the US primetime hours. We won't be competitive in a campaign until that is fixed.

    You can only be competitive if you night cap. This has basically been a fact since the game came out. You can't make up in prime time what you lost in the previous 16-20 hours.

    Sadly this is true. EP doesn't have a single guild on during off hours, often 1-2 bar EP vs poplocked DC and AD. both with organized groups, it sucks.

    thus the root problem of why EP spends all their time at the bridge, why bother.

    At least half of AD feels the same way which is why we go to the bridge. Just look at the last week and a half honestly. AD took the lead for what, two days before DC decided to nightcap the entire map and jump ahead 800 points in a day and a half. But, DC is outnumbered guys :smirk:

    BFTP held down the fort during the daytime for EP for awhile. But they aren't running hardly at all anymore. We used to have RAM for the morning hours however they rolled over to AD, helped AD win a couple campaigns then fizzled out. EP needs some new guilds to start up outside of primetime.
