Which side wins more?

[SallySpits]

Damn, so it's essentially 50/50, or at most 52/48

As always when it comes to stats, the devil is in the details, and the whole truth is not obvious. For example - when one side is dominating, the other usually falls away abit, so the dominating side cant get as much kills as it could've. But its a hint to how things are anyways.

So is there anyone here who could just tell me what the general feel of the game is rather than throw a bunch of data my way?

Is one side usually pwning the other?

What realm that dominate seems to be on 2-3 y cycle or smth remember when order PvDorr 24/7 and now dest has had the pop upper hand for 1-2y (much to my own disliking I'd much rather play the "smaller" side).



There are also reoccurring weekly/daily imbalances of population so it isn't b/w

If you play in a guild and in an organised wb you will be likely winning 70/30 regardless if this is important for you. Bottom line organized players win regardless of side or pop or format (SCs, ORvR, small man roaming). Tip ignore SCs entirely if you are new to the game bc it is a poor experience at best.

Focus on finding a class you like, a group of players that work together. There are good play to be found in most situations regardless if you defend retreat or attack. The most boring part is actually being dominant and staring at rams hitting doors. So IMHO order side is more fun atm but this will change.

Thanks, this is exactly what I wanted to know

IMHO is quite balanced these days weekend to

Seems pretty even to me.

And when youre relatively good and you join good organized parties and warbands, you will win more often than not.

Not aimed at OP but more in general but this whiny obsession with who wins more is tiresome. If you lose all the time, play different (either in your own gameplay or in what kind of situations you decide to play in). And if youre in a pug where half is <40 and the average gear is redeye, dont go whining if you lose against BIS orga wbs.

NA destro has been very strong lately. After my buddy hit RR 90 we've now swapped order.

The pop. is very healthy at the moment. There are fights to be had. You'll want at least one properly geared toon on both sides.

Bozzax has it right. With a good guild you can find fun no matter what you are doing anyway.

The following is just my perspective. I've played at all hours of the day in the last 3 months.

The population shifts almost hourly and it heavily affects RVR. The population shifts because of cross realming, demoralization (from losing), and when people log on of course. When one faction has 50% more than the other faction, they tend to win. As the smaller side, can you still get kills, can you still get good renown? Yes you can, but you won't "win" (protect a keep, attack a keep) as often.

Currently, in general destruction has more players. There are times when it's even or when there are slightly more Order players, but those times seem few lately.

Destruction has 50-100% more players in RVR zones during EU times. A few months ago Order had more population during NA times, but now it's even or destruction has more players.

I find one side or the other gets demoralized when they lose.

There are some really amazing fights to be found though, I couldn't ask for a better game.

Does that answer your question? Why are you asking?

[Tisaya]

Destructions 'wins' more in locking zones and winning forts, because they tend to have more people. Order often wins in kills, because an underdog side tends to have better players.

nothing has changed.

War... war never changes.
