Hey all,

Just started playing ESO on Xbox... Used to play on PC where EP had a big population for pvp. Curious on what the scenario is on Xbox?

Not looking to go to the best side etc just curious on whose "leading" in pvp on Xbox.

    Lol define "better".

    In Grey Host, best fights right now are on DC. DC used to ultra-dominate and win every campaign. They'd be 3 bars to 1-0 bars EP/AD late at night, and would zerg the whole empty map down like clockwork. These days they're now outnumbered every night and pretty much always end up gated first. If you're looking for better fights and/or to 1vX, small-scale, or ball group, DC is 100% the move.

    EP is in the middle. Last campaign (or maybe the one before that? Cant remember) they completely dominated, but that was the first camp they've won in like a year. Usually EP is in DCs spot in dead last, but they seem to have gotten an infusion of people as of late. When I was EP for a few months about 4-5 months ago they were literally at 0 bars with low pop bonus like every single night, but that's changed now. They tend to put up a really good fight until late into the night, after which they typically end up gated as well.

    AD has historically been all over the place. Either dead last, solid second, or first, just depended on which guilds were playing or taking time off. Last few months, with the exception of the EP month, AD has been dominating. Now they're the ones with a 2-3 bar advantage over everyone else. Up until midyear AD was zerging the map so hard they'd kill PvP every night by about 11pm PST and turn the whole thing yellow.

    This could all change of course, it's just where things stand right now. Everything flipped on its head already, so it's not impossible it won't happen again. I don't even know how it really happened to begin with - I'm assuming a number of guilds must have come over to AD from DC or something, that or all of DC has been on vacation in another campaign for the last few months.

    This is an accurate summary.

    To summarize it at least for last few months:

    DC dominates. Pretty much only alliance that has many ball groups.

    EP: always full bars, but they don’t seem to get anything done. Ppl stand at gates and spin their mouths yelling at each other in zone chat, but when it comes to fighting, not much is happening.
    (Right now with MYM fighting is somewhat revived)

    AD: seems to be very good when ppl are on, but there’s many times when ppl are not. It looks like ad only plays during prime time.

    From what it looks like, is that EP can only do things when there’s Zerg or zergs available. Dc and ad run well with ball groups. Mostly dc. Bombers are everywhere now, but it looks like ep doesn’t have any. Not really true, but ppl who are on ep, they usually switch to their dc or ad toons to do bombing, so it just appears like there’s no ep bombers. Also…I’ve never seen this many bombers everywhere. Good or bad ones. Just seems to be rising up as a preferred play style.
