✭✭Two solutions to fix the balance system :
- Setup only 2 campaigns (one vr12 only and another for the rest). This way, guesting & buffs from another campaign wouldn't exist anymore .
- Add a tenacity buff : increase health and damage of players of the outnumbered faction.

That seems to be a way a lot of people are leaning towards. I find a problem with it though (and I'm DC) that 1 bar vs a lock... how much of an increase is appropriate? And would it be "fair?" Perhaps in the big picture (the scoreboard) this might even things out, but for it to work those increases imo would essentially have to turn 1 bar vs lock pops into emperors, and as frustrating as the Australian Dominion is in its population advantage, imagine this scenario as one of those also paying subscribers trying to go head to head with 24 emperors. Or even running into a 1v1 scenario, and you just get your head kicked in like a boxing match between mike tyson and steven hawking.
Some have suggested, to which I agree is a reasonable solution, since increasing health and/or dmg would cause serious problems, and what ZOS appears to be doing, increasing points gained for under-popped factions, which will prove to be irrelevant since 0 * Y = 0; there should be negative effects to the highest population faction's point accumulation. In that having the highest population as a ratio of your population vs others yields scaling lower point gain per objective (on the scoreboard)
That way an overpopulation can still gain points while they're pvDooring, but doesn't absolutely cripple the other factions' chance at ever winning.

✭✭There is a way to make this better, but most might not like it when guesting it should force you to fight for an enemy faction also this would be good for rp as well so we can rp with each other. with different faction charaeters.PC NA

✭✭✭Nicely played tonight, DC. EP owns only Farragut and Kingscrest while AD owns one of your central keeps along with both of your scrolls. The obvious tactic for your team is to attack the EP keep that protects a gate without a scroll behind it. Nobody will ever mistake you guys for a brain trust that's for sure.1 -

Yeah, I was scratching my head a bit on why they were attacking an EP home keep without a scroll behind it. They pushed Ash pretty hard but was unsuccessful. I wonder if frustration set in and decided to push in a different direction.
On a side note, you guys did a hell of a job defending Farragut.1 -

That was a nice defense. Every time I told my team "we're probably going to wipe, but I want their siege line burned -- even if we have to respawn" the zerg would see us and pinch the bananas hard. We still wiped a few times, but that was due to getting hunted by the Emp's team and flanked a few times.
OTOH, Alessia was a fairly epic battle. Blue cleared the north part of the keep and we backdoored it from the farm and killed all the AD in the southern half of the keep. The keep changed hands between all three factions at least once in a ten minute span, but ended with AD dethroned and all scrolls back in their homes.Agrippa Invisus / Indominus / Inprimis / Inviolatus

I was part of that fun at Kingscrest hehe. There was no other reason behind it then just because. Don't read anything into it. The little group I generally run with just needed a change of scenery from the Batswarm crew that was at Ash the whole night. That crap gets old after a while. AD seriously needs a new Emperor because their current one is a one trick pony. Effective...I'll give it that...but that's because they REALLY need to nerf Batswarm (and yes I'm a Vamp as well).1 -

wllstrt75b14_ESO✭✭✭whats really funny..is after they took kings(DC) and helped AD get an EP scroll..AD turned on kings and attacked it..not sure how many times AD needs to screw over DC before they declare their AD independence but it is funny that they continue to work with AD instead of against.
DC reminds me of the abused house wife that still loves their husband despite the constant abuse.2 -

wllstrt75b14_ESO✭✭✭AD took both scrolls now, after DC helped them take keeps and DC tried to attack chim scroll AD rolled up behind them and helped us wipe them before taking chim..so AD now has both scrolls directly resulting from DC tag teaming EP at the start. Now AD has turned their sites on DC and I say to EP let AD *** over DC now and take their scrolls serves those useless abused spouses of AD right.
as predicted AD turned its attention on DC for their scrolls now..Lmao DC not so smart in their decision to fight EP and not AD oh well DC are very slow learners apparently.Edited by wllstrt75b14_ESO on September 3, 2014 5:01PM2 -

Whenever I see these posts I immediately know this is a new player. Cant remember how many times I have seen EP holding Rayles and Warden while AD is besieging Glade. Factions will go after the weakest link to gain easy points. You're going to have a heart attack if you get angry every time it happens.1 -
bitaken✭✭✭✭✭How weak is DC on Thorn now?
Any DC guilds left on Thorn? I realize the AD night capping happens here - but I have grown accustomed to that playing on Chill against the EP night cappers.
I know NM moved to Chill - and so did EG. Not much quality aside from Alacrity and some other AD - and a few EP that are good players - but generally mediocre play at best.
I miss fighting my friends from Hijinx and that tense moment when you know the face off is coming - and I prefer to be outnumbered and outmanned most of the time - that's just not the case on Chill anymore....

Very bad we haven't broke one bar since the switches, hit 2 bar briefly but think that was a fluke. I am mainly using it has a scout campaign now.0 -

✭✭✭DC reached three bars last night at one point, most likely because the queue for Chillrend was exceptionally long as DC was locked there for pretty much all of prime time.0 -

Yeah. Logged in around 8 pm est. Looked at Thorn (I'm AD BTW). AD Locked, 68 person queue. EP at 2 bars, DC at 1 bar (AD owns the entire map at the time). Looked at Chil. AD 2 Bars, EP 2 Barsm DC locked (DC owned the entire map at the time). I ended up playing on Chil all night.1 -
Rallick71✭✭AD killed Thornblade. I logged on...noticed that AD was locked, EP was at 2 bars and DC at 1 bar. Checked the map and it was totally Yellow. AD was already 2k ahead of everyone as well.
Sighed...logged off and decided I'd rather watch some Netflix
