    EP has had both DC's and AD's scrolls for the last 2 weeks and neither faction has really tried getting them back because they don't want to get faction stacked and have the game lag out because 6000 EP have decided to try and stop the group of maybe 10 DC/AD who are trying to get the scroll back. They are actively killing the campaign and I see less and players on DC and AD playing now because, to be honest what is there to play for? To provide EP with AP? If it carries on like this for much longer the only DC or AD, EP will be fighting are the NPCs and that's basically what is happening anyway.

    With faction change tokens and the likes, we all know where it will trend towards :)
    It is only the beginning. It will just become a token campaign to farm transmutes and ap.

    After raids we've been running small groups of 2-6 and having an absolute blast hammering AD and DC's faces in. While you are hiding in Blackreach, we're enjoying PvP while you are too afraid to fight us because you know you can't beat us. Enjoy pvdooring empty campaigns and making excuses for your numerous shortcomings, Twiggie.

    Lol every time we go against just gao we smash your face in. I even have a screenshot of you raging in guild chat after we poned you near drake twice ahtu. Also when we beat you over and over again at sej and the next day you applied to my guild ... lol. Lastly, during the event after enjoying double tel var we decided to go to GH for a bit to find a red map with: you, gao, and a few ep pugs when we took the hammer from you and pushed gao to their tri keeps and got our scroll back. Talk about short comings lol you also raged on one of my guildies for that and he took screenshots to share :) The real problem is you always have a pop locked ep faction stack behind you. And it's not the fact that we cant beat the 24/7 ep locked stack, we left because of the lag. Even during these tests we went to GH late night for a bit only to find ourselves rubberbanding and skills not firing. Plus blackreach has been really fun we fight a massive blue zerg every night with no lag. I'm sure thats why DC had low pop in GH every night before we left. Lol ahtu, bring gao to blackreach on our raid times and you will go back to gh crying because you dont have a pop locked ep faction to carry you in br. Really though if you did that it would probably save both campaigns because GH would be wayyy less laggy without you and BR would get way more fun with an ep zerg their as well. Don't be scared buddy, give it a try. You'll still get to nightcap after we log off, i promise :)

    Keep telling yourself you're the king of the South. Maybe Blackreach is where you belong so you can get some Ws vs an empty server. It's a shame those doors decided to fight back in Grat Host so you couldn't nightcap anyomore.

    Any EP player who thinks they are winning the campaigns of late because they are better players really needs to understand that it is the 3 plus hours of EP faction stack with no opposition from AD and DC that is "winning" the campaigns of late for them. Just as it has done in the past for AD and DC.

    But don't fret people the EP dominance will not last forever it never does, swings and roundabouts people.

    As a person who gets ap by playing, not playing to get ap I find the ego contest amusing. Sure EP is the current nightcapper but it has been AD in the past and DC.

    All fighting in a large blob does is make you a poorer player, I have noticed the standard of EP players has dropped considerably. (With some notable exceptions).

    When the game launched AD won almost every campaign, then many AD players went to EP to even things out, some of those are still there.

    Things always change, sometimes for the better.

    I am not talking about AD as a faction, I'm talking about my zerg vs his zerg. I wasn't gonna say anything until he directly attacked me first. But I disagree with you when you say that large blobs produce bad players. I just find it really fun to play with all my friends. It's like a party everyday sometimes. Discord gets crazy funny and I have to yell for comms a lot lol. I think 4v4 and 1v1 is really fun too.

    The ex EP groups were terrific to bring some health to the campaign. We lost full red map to find pop locked EP to lose 1 scroll and struggling to get 2 keeps by the gates. Med pop AD and DC fought so well that I think this cycle will be the one that is remembered. Good AP to grab, plenty of action and competition.

    Yep the former EP that have come to DC have all been super friendly and really good teammates and allies! Nothing bad to say about them! Apparently according to them DC and AD are much nicer and more welcoming factions, so we got that at least even if we don't win :tongue:

    And show some class & humility, EP. The vast majority of you who bragged about gating when there was no reason to do so are responsible for the demoralization of a lot of people. I was ashamed to be EP during the previous campaign in GH.

    > "How many EP does it take to capture a Keep?"

    < "All of them."

    And now that AD and DC actually have a handful of individuals that can fight hugely outnumbered groups and defend keeps, we're seeing how trash EP really is, and why they needed so many players in the first place to lag the server and cause everyone defending to disconnect.

    That's their new strategy, btw. We held Alessia for well over a half an hour until more and more EP started showing and we started crashing. Ahtu was screaming in zonechat after setting his alarm to wake up at 4am to start nightcapping.

    Atoning for my sins as well. I was ashamed at the way we played last campaign as a faction. It almost completely ruined pvp in the game. It did for the last campaign. I mean let’s face it. We all log in to cyrodil hoping for good fights. Not bullying. Glad we switched brother. Fights have been juicy.
