ESO Population on Xbox EU (?)

I just plan on switching from my PS4 Pro to an Xbox One X and I am curious how populated the game is on the Xbox EU servers.

So dear fellow Xbox players, what would you say? How long are the queueing times for battlegrounds / dungeons, how populated are the zones and what about Cyrodiil?

Hope I can get some insights! Thanks.

    Cyrodiil is dead. 2 bars for each faction is like max it gets. Same fights in same places for the most part. It's 50% straight line zerg and 50% groups who hold up somewhere, tempt other people in and ultimate bomb them.

    DC night cap, get outnumbered in the day usually and EP and AD take most the map back.

    Rinse and repeat for the last year at least.


    PvE... Still a lot of people doing stuff from what I see. Trials seem to always be going, few guilds going for scores, group finder for pledges is usually pretty quick.

    I’d say the population is quite good. Obviously in the EU many of us are in different time zones but I always get big battles and group finder 90% of the time works quickly for battlegrounds and dungeons.

    Mhm the Cyrodiil population sounds a bit disappointing, one of the aspects I might play the most...

    Alot of good pve players have either switches to pc or quit playing. Random group finder only gives you ppl who have no idea about the game. How and when to bash, what sets to wear or generally speaking what to even do in the dungeons. Having some friends is the only way you can complete content if you dont want to spend half a day at the dungeon.

    I'd really think about starting on the NA server it's alot more busy. There are a lot of EU players that have made the switch already.

    But I really don't want to play on NA because of the time differences. When I'm mostly online NA is at school/work/university.

    That's why it's quite important for me to know about EU pop.

    After playing for almost two weeks now I must say the Xbox EU population is absolutely fine. Not really less than on PS4 EU.

    I was going to bring that up too. We have a number of people from Europe in our guild on Xbox NA. It sounds like it’s not necessary, but it’s always an option.

    Xbox EU maybe less packed in Cyrodil but I care more about the quality of the combat than the quantity that I learned from the mayhem event. Pop locked but no difference in experience maybe even less so.

    People that are online on Xbox EU Cyro are determined and group battles are good and due to low population you will always be in the best fights because that is where almost everybody is.

    There is basically no difference (EU). I went from PS4 to Xbox and I see as much people on Xbox as I saw on PS4. There might be a small difference in the endgame community, I don't know - not there yet.
