What benefit is there for AD and DC to be working together in Cyrodiil?

Been doing more PVP over the last few weeks and when I run my EP characters I often come across blues (DC) and yellows (AD) running together. I can understand a few friends in the different factions running around together but when you see 20 or 30 together it looks more like it is more organised.

Is there a particular reason for this or is it their mutual hatred of reds (EP)?

    Only once did I see EP and DC do a cease-fire to work together to try to take a keep from us in AD, but what you describe could very well be a group of miscreants that are working to steal scrolls from keeps...

    You are obviously in a different campaign to me (Scourge) - whenever I am in there EP struggle to work together let alone work with another faction.

    In a three alliance war, it is normal to team up with enemies to defeat a bigger threat. Happened countless times in history. Also, it is wrong to pin it on the whole factions. There are some large guilds who are multi faction and run groups on all alliances at same time with specific goals, that's happening since day 1. Whilst treaties and honor is pretty and the right thing to do, first rule of war in the real world is everything is fair as long you win.

    This ^^^ for me also, I do see a dirty yellow hanging out once in awhile with an enemy, but the collusion overall in the game is just terrible and not healthy, for a three faction WAR !!!...

    They will eventually turn on each other. It's just easier to deal with one opponent, rather than two, so they work together to remove one.

    Actually from my experience red has more animosity toward yellow than the other way around. Could be mutual though.

    Isn't OP talking about EU trueflame?

    Well, in this case I can tell you why. Blues lost their good players to real life and the remaining fews had no honour and joined the new force AD.

    Since they still lose in fights, AD tend to night cap every other night, too.

    Last but not least pact has an issue with organisation ans leading. None of the TS guilds do proper Pug raids, so people often waste time at allessia bridge or chalman gate.

    Since this thread shows the need of it again, let me take the opportunity to ask for separate console forums! All those posters derailing topics without shame needs to stop!

    It would be nice if you checked everything before responding and commenting. My sig has always had PS4 NA in it and my second post states I am talking about Scourge.

    I agree with Grabmoore that we do need separate console forums so that some of you PC PVP elitists can ignore us and move on.

    Every faction complains about getting double teamed on every campaign. This isn't new or surprising.

    a few pvp zerg bads can barely organize a keep attack or scroll defense and yet you attribute the ability for two whole factions full of random people to agree not to attack one another and team up on another and then succeed in this endeavor?

    in 1v1v1 it will probably always look like someone is teaming up with someone else, rarely ever is that actually the case.

    game got too disappointing.
