Order loses scenarios?

[lairiodd]

Played a bright wizard and a disciple (granted only to level 4 ), but in both cases, the scenarios went 500-250 (or worse) in destruction's favour.

Is this normal? Some were commenting on class imbalances between the sides, and it gets better at later levels. Is this true?

Also, was on US, so maybe different realm/class population balances here.

On a related issue, how do you switch to a different race's homeland ?

playing on a euro server the RvR was heavily in favour of the order so it just must be down to server population.

I've been playing Destruction. Been in 5 scenarios so far. And lost them all.

It depends who you are playing. Not what they are playing.

Playing Order on Karrag Hirn (EU) and Order is kilin destro. We control nearly every region but I think its population issues more than anything.

Destro got it together a cpl of games and it was nasty, line of tanks really works, they pinned us in and their DPS ruined us :S

Karrag Hirn is Low pop for both Order and Destro atm so that plays some part of it.

 

[lairiodd]

Why should population matter? Aren't they auto balanced ? In fact, on the over-pop realm, there should be long waits.

 

[Muylaetrix]

it all depends who you are playing WITH and who you are playing AGAINST.

today i`ve done loads of scenarios and each time we saw 6+ people of a certain guild <cough> moonlapse /waves at ash and Co <cough> in the opposing side and i saw only `randoms` on our side, our side got humiliated.

in the end we won some, we lost some, but any time you`ll find yourself facing guild groups who have been months in the beta, and there are mainly players on your side who just joined in the last 2 days, you can EXPECT to lose.

I have to admit, a lot of people have to drop the WoW mentality of standing in front of the tanks as well as the tanks taking up more of an active role in defending the people around them rather than them thinking they are Rambo.

When everyone does their job it's fantastic. We had one person defending the ramp up to the upper walkway in the T1 stuntie/greenskin scenario while the ranged DPS just emptied on them. But for every time it works. You have another example of a tank standing there brawling with the ranged DPS letting WH run past them and kick seven shades out of the shammy at the back.

Also on Karrag Hirn (EU) and High Elfs are just killing the Dark Elfs. i think i lost 1 game the whole day and i played around 10 scenarios.

Love my white lion so far it is really funny sicking the lion onto someone and watching them run around like a complete fool while the lion tears them to bits.

Pathing still needs fixing thou

OMG ! i was grouped with AAda ..but yea we were top 5 each time in the scenarious

Faya

 

[sloand]

Think our grp lost 1 out of 8 games tonight.

No Probs with Order here.

Karak hirn must be the only server that feels like Order outnumber Dest.

 

[Roo Stercogburn]

Nah, most people I've chatted to are going Order.

 

[xxManiacxx]

Have won every single scenario that I have played as Archmage. This one is the only one that has been close

Mani R9 RR8 Archmage

 

[Succi]

order usually win =]

 

[Kuldiin]

Have won some, lost some gone about 50/50 tbh in both scenarios and RVR.

Thats just how pvp should be, not lose all the time win all the time, that used to piss me off in Warcraft.

Worlds end as Order I am

 

[dee777]

Order wins all matches I was in on Karrag-Hirn so far. That is Greenskin and Darkelf scenarios. Destruction doesnt even answer, when I try consolidate efforts via /sp. Its fun nonetheless and once guilds have settled and groups are setup decently with voicecomms, I hope our performance increases.

On population: As far as I know _everything_ you do in a given map should help conquer it (the little indicator above your map). If thats the case, I dont think order is underpopulated on my server as in every pairing I play the blue bar pwnz the red bar by a landslide. I hope it stays that way once the game hits live (the population part, not the pwning ^^).

 

[Pandemic]

I played for part of a day leveling my bright wizard from 1-11 in both rr and levels doing scenarios only. Order won the first 5 fights easily then moonlapse showed up in sufficient numbers to win some of the scenarios for destruction. fighting organised guild groups is much tougher.
i'd say a pug group scenario for both sides, order will win 2/3 times.

 

[Downanael]

<cough> moonlapse /waves at ash and Co <cough>

Which server they playing on?

 

[Andrilyn]

Which server they playing on?

Worlds Edge Mountain.

 

[wutae]

You are so true, u were 2nd or 3rd in most exp taken in all scenarios i faced u.

As far as concerning the post title, i played 7 games and won 6 as a Sorc

 

[Grimlorn]

The problem is destruction needs healing. People either aren't healing well enough, or there are no healers getting in on those scenrios. There was one scenario where I got some really good healing and My Damage was like 20k in that scenrio. I was chosen also.

Nordenwatch kind of favors Order a bit I think. I've ran alone to Fortress while 10 or 11 stay at barracks to capture it for some dumb reason. Anyways Order captures Lighthouse a couple seconds before Destructiong does Barracks and there are still about 10 people meeting me about the same time as I arrive at Fortress.

Also there's that stupid hill over looking the Barracks area giving Order a good place to attack from and move out of sight if they start getting hit.


I'd also like to know how I can get in on other scenarios(like Nordenwatch as Orc or Dark elf). You can't seem to switch between scenarios for different factions. I'm a bit confused on how it's done. I've also sat in waiting today for 30min to 1 hour waiting on the Dark Elf scenario and never getting in one. I finally logged off.

 

[killfest]

have to say it seems to be pretty even so far on the server im playing

 

[Uara]

i've played a couple of scenario's as Destruction and they've always been won by order. But im not really bothered, its all a load of fun at the moment and thats why i play
