EU Faction Balance

✭✭✭✭✭
How is EU faction balance these days?
Is there a dominant faction? Is there a "main" campaign? Is the competition well balanced?

✭✭✭✭Quite balanced.
Haderus = Yellow / Red buffs (not been there a while heard Reds took over at one point)
Chill = Blue buffs
Azuras = Red buffs / 2nd biggest campaign getting more popular with Thorn queues and lag
Thornblade = Biggest campaign, well balanced to the most part. maybe lacking Reds if anything (or Reds just sleep earlier than Yellow and Blue)

Lhorion✭✭✭✭✭I cannot remember Haderua being red for months.
EP might be stronger in Azuras Star, but AD/DC have their private buff-campagns. EP players have someone the Azura buffs, but not always. When you attack one keep on Haderus/Chill then thousands of AD/DC come to defend. This has to be mentioned before talking about balance

✭✭✭✭Chillrend and Haderus are complete joke campaigns and will stay that way for as long as PvP buffs are granted for free to PvE players. The only reason EP will go to Chillrend/Haderus is to nightcap and farm Emperor.0 -

✭✭✭✭In terms of competition, AD has won Thorn (the main campaign) for the last 4? campaigns.
The last 2 campaigns were marred by Low Pop bonuses for AD (As we actually had a lower population than the other 2) which skewed the scores and discouraged competition from the other factions. So far the current campaign hasn't had this problem.@Solar_Breeze

It's great to see AD have the lead without broken scoring and the bitterness that comes from it!Izanagi.Xiiib16_ESO wrote: »In terms of competition, AD has won Thorn (the main campaign) for the last 4? campaigns.

It's not really that great, but better than having them lead with broken scoring

At the beginning of the last Haderus cycle we had surprisingly many EP on hile DC and AD had medium population even (EP still low). After Miruku was emp we took over for one day, that rumor must have spread at that point, as we purposely took every buff from AD and indeed got high AD population soon after, wich then lead to dethroning.Izanagi.Xiiib16_ESO wrote: »In terms of competition, AD has won Thorn (the main campaign) for the last 4? campaigns.

Yawn... AD was not underpopulated since the 2? campaigns EP won in the beginning. Who cares about the low pop bonus if AD wouldn't outnumber both other factions together at the same time, nightcapping?DAGON - ALTADOON - CHIM - GHARTOK

Ever thought about the idea that one person's fun may differ from another person's fun? If someone wants to do that, why not?

Isbilen✭✭✭✭✭There is only one faction that can stay at medium population for many hours after the two other drop to low, and that is the Aldmeri Dominion. When EP and DC are on medium they will normally still be locked, sometimes high.3 -
AriBoh✭✭✭✭✭AD pop is not higher, EP can have lock on the 2 main campaigns during prime time, and since EP are rampantly emp swapping near all of them have former bonus.Edited by AriBoh on January 11, 2015 4:28AMkhele23eb17
Agreed. Whoever came up with the design should be shot in the foot and only admitted to hospital when he manages to find 3 other people willing to maim themselves the same way in order to accompany him.

Ultimately, any method of entering an enemy keep without breaking down the door is considered an exploit. Thanks for checking!

All three factions usually lock both campaigns during prime time, but the difference is in how long they are able to keep their population up.
And sure, EP might have a higher population overall, but they are much more spread out between the campaigns than AD is.
Prime time:
3:20 (GMT+1) in the morning:
And here at 5:09 in the morning you can see AD is still going strong:
