This. But unfortunately when new players - or any players really - ask questions in an attempt to L2P better, they are mostly met with snark or elitest attitudes. We need to be better gamers towards our fellow gamers if we want AD as a faction to improve. I mean, why would anyone bother trying harder if when they do - and invariably make mistakes during the learning process - they are met with snark and venom?

And yet, despite all the AP farming by EP/DC, and the lack of organisation and tactics by AD, AD still won the last two campaigns in Kaal. Amazing, hm?
If AD wins despite their lack of organisation, what's that saying about what EP and DC are doing?
It says that EP and DC are not night-capping the map against low pops of opposing factions. I'm not complaining, it is what it is.
That said, I see AD running plenty of guild and small groups, at least in primetime.

BRogueNZ✭✭✭✭✭AD has obviously an effective group running frequently at the moment and despite their love of AP and their feats of awesomeness have done a good job of spreading out the population and yes to a degree carried us the lead we have atm.
They aren't the only ones but anyway..
They, our heroes and carriers (I'd use the word mercenaries :P ) eventually leave and all these angry smurfs and barbarians seek vicious revenge on the few remaining solo randoms who are eventually all schooled into fare and farmed X v 1 styles until people get a clue and/or leave.
It remains that way longer than many of you know so while yes we dominate at times, it is not for the entire night.
I may leave an emped map (because If there's not a keep UA or being taken (seriously) IDGAF really) at 10pm; EST+12 and be back at Fare by midnight and the situation is not much better at 7.am. yes i have no life at the moment.
Sometimes there is another group that is on that leaves a little later than our 'Heroes' who also do their own thing generally but please enough with the exaggeration and hypocrisy.

akray21✭✭✭✭✭I don't get to very often, but I try to solo and duo occasionally. What typically happens is that I run into an organized group of 5 or 6 reds/blues and get run over. Small groups that attack solos are worse than zergs.3

Cerotonin✭✭✭I mainly play in AD. I picked the faction based on the lore and story behind it, not really because of how it plays in PvP. When I started, AD was the bottom of the barrel lol. It changed a bit since Elsweyr launched.
Anyways, we barely have any actual small groups. Zone chat IS the group. It seems we don’t have much organization like the other two factions. We don’t really have any streamers like the other two factions so that we can tag along with them. It’s really a toss up on how things will go sometimes lol.
Night cap does lead us to getting “purpled” by the other two factions. AD fights both at the same time, it isn’t easy, but sometimes we come out victorious.1 -
NBrookus✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭✭✭AD actually has more guild groups than the other factions. IDK what EP zone is like lately, but trust me DC's isn't very organized.
The game is pushing people to stack up harder than ever. It's not just the dot meta, but the hammer and the changes to gates and bridges have increasingly pressured players into linear fights. Yes you CAN go around but people rarely do.
I'm all for large scale battles (if the servers could handle it), but it's harder to right-size fights. If a group breaks off to hit a target alone they draw a faction stack... or nothing. It's not small manning if you are tucked inside a faction stack.

Hashtag_✭✭✭✭✭In the time it takes to go around at least for AD, DC will have already taken nikel and have roe flagged.0

SmackNCheese✭✭✭The only good AD group I know of is Enzo’s, the rest of them rely on literally packing so many people into a location they win because the enemy can’t use skills. I can’t list a single true AD 1vXer who has played the game in the last two patches.
The difference between AD and the other alliances is as others have mentioned above, they don’t go out on their own. Before faction lock I would get rewards on my AD Templar and sit at a resource to watch EP Trickle in 1-4 at a time for about 20 minutes then they’d ball up and wipe me. Just yesterday I took an AD resource and waited 15 minutes with no combat. Then a group of 20+ AD set up siege and ran into the flag. For one guy. They had 6 people just stealthed outside the farm waiting. Because they didn’t want to 6v1.NA Mag Player1 -

and back to the null argument due to time zones and to be honest I don't enjoy a yellow map either
I realise the sense it makes, as I said Chalman can sit there quite happily for hrs in US prime time, meanwhile we have to push and defend on two fronts. you bet once we bust out we take it all.

You claim it is a null argument and yet you are trying to make a case defending it. (Not really helping either I might add considering that post from earlier. (4 hours a day isn't a "long time" to dominate at all. GG.))

No, just realise that it's silly to complain about getting double teamed in a 3 faction war. Especially if you're leading with points, have emp and everyone's scrolls.
