I heard the EP who took the DC scroll from Drake and ran it to the front door of Alessia is a former DC player. I personally cannot confirm that, though. Before he made it to Alessia, he allegedly set up a double cross with DC as he ran it directly to the wrecked ship by Alessia bridge where several DC were waiting (and where DC later dropped a camp). Needless to say, DC got wiped as EP farmed the DC that showed up, not to mention the dozens of AD that poured out of nearby Alessia. He even ran up to the front door of Alessia several times before someone finally got him. The scroll soon after reset back to Drake because AD couldn't touch it and EP could not get close enough to it.

Let's not leave out the team orange business of yellow guarding the scroll and protecting it for EP so it would reset in an ep keep. Maybe one day Ep will win a campaign without help from AD.

The campaign is barely a week old and DC already trails EP by 13K points. We don't need AD's help in winning this campaign and one scroll is not going to make much of an immediate difference.

Yay. I didn't think I'd be so happy to lose. NJ DC. try to turn it around and work up your points. The funny thing is that now AD controls a keep with a DC scroll and DC controlls a keep with a AD scroll, but they can't pick up the other. Make the most of it guys. I want to win a campaign because I fought damn hard for it, not because it's being dominated so heavily. I'd take Meteoric Lag over a completely red map 24/7 any day.

And I've personally seen a full AD raid AND a full DC raid ignoring each other in both Arrius and Chalman tonight. So quit with the crying Team Green.

I think the salient point is one would anticipate two losing and outnumbered factions to coordinate against the top cheese who has a 13k point lead. What one scratches their head at is the guy on the bottom a lot helping out that top cheese. To what ends? Why does the top cheese need the bottom guy to hold a scroll for them? This is all rhetorical, of course.

Oh I don't care that they are working together. I'm just tired of the accusation that EP hooks up with another faction on AS when it is obviously the other way around.

If AD and DC want to cut out half of their possible points that's fine with EP.

WHAT?! Oh...those muppets Americans again. Write US server! The world don't know when you talking about small stuff.

Takes 5 seconds to read and know we're talking about NA. If you're too stupid to figure it out then we cant help you there.

So what happened last night? Did we finally get dethroned?

Yeah, we finally got the dethrone last night around midnight/1am CST, if I recall correctly.

Such arrogance. Anyone who was there last night knows who clowned around with that scroll and knows who he was helping and why. My goodness you would have us all live in ep's world of denial?

That doesn't make the whole faction guilty of working with AD, Bro. Quit painting with such a wide brush. But we do know that AD and DC were definitely working as Team Green...

To be frank, the TFL team absconding to Chillrend did DC no favors. I've seen them formed up and running mid days before and that'd help against the EP crew that operates that time of day.

Not sure why they left, but hey, I guess Chillrend needed more DC during off hours. Or something.

They're not entirely to fault, though. There's a lot of EP on Azura's (and Thornblade for that matter) that need to go play on Chillrend and help EP pull themselves out of third there instead of taking the easy win.

Maybe that's just the overarching theme here.

This is likely my last cycle on Azura's until it straightens itself out.

This^

I'm so tired of large group of players merging to another campaign and enjoying an easy win with much much larger numbers without looking elsewhere where their faction needs them the most.

Shameful.

I'm not pointing fingers at anyone, there is a faction in every campaign who seem to enjoy an easy win by dominating the map entirely lately. It's the new trend or something.

How about you bring your guild where your faction needs you the most next cycle ? Do us all a favor. And when you do, please don't bring your best buddy guild with you. One guild at a time, please.

Together we can change EPs mentality!

EP, DC and AD.

Yes, all of the factions can help EP change their zerg mentality.

Yeah i'm not sure why they left, i saw a few of their guys in AS when the campaign started. Not sure how chillrend is even remotely fun for DC.


AS has been pretty fun and lag free for the most part, i'll take that any day over an overpopulated campaign that's unplayable during prime-time.

In a perfect world, the players guilds look at the servers, maybe test the waters with a night or two of casual fighting, and then ask themselves "Where are we needed most?"

Thornblade is definitely not the answer, and it seems Azura's is less so every day.

When Chillrend was turning red every night waaaay back in September-October (I'm getting fuzzy on the timeframe at this point, forgive me), we flipped to Thornblade which had a third place EP team mired in irrelevance that was lucky to show 2-3 bars of population during prime time. We turned it around there, but the wheel keeps spinning and now Thornblade is what it is.

I joined Azura's with EP having fairly similar prospects. My goal was to help where needed and to get the EP zerg and organized teams spread out a bit, so not everyone was slamming down one server, crushing it night after night.

(And Arrius during prime time last night was kinda stupid bad laggy, followed by everyone's favorite Crash to Desktop as it neared the conclusion.)

EP, DC and AD.

The solution to all this talk about imbalance in faction population is to change the number of campaigns. It should be two i.e. one less than the number of factions. You'd also need a big change to the overall scoring system. But of course the caveat to all that is for ZOS to fix the server to handle the load(s). What are the chances of that.
