"But, we just want to be able to swap sides and balance the game..."
Not ONCE has that ever been the actual case. People will ALWAYS chose the easy win.
We will never have balance until Destro gets nerfed. WE and SH are insane. Well, all the classes are. Just had a solo SH kill a full BiS tank and full BiS SL with a pocket healer, yet the SH killed all 3 (healer last) in less than 1 minute.
No wonder no one wants to play order anymore

Farming destro pugs is not easy enough for you?

Bit of an odd post.
Does Destro have certain classes that are OP? Sure.
Does Order have certain classes that are OP? Sure.
Does Destro generally have more numbers? Yeah.
Does Order typically have more kills. Yeah.
Things aren’t perfect and balancing takes way too long to get fixed, but both sides have outliers, pros and cons, etc

Getting yoinked by GtdC behind keep doors, and then being out of los for rez is an issue for Order. Maybe despawn the doors when they fall, or not block los. It is really punishing for tanks, and severely limits your mobility in heavy seige situations. Destro obviously doesn't have that issue.
I would also like to see pulls in general go on cd to make counter-play more viable. It's not particularly great to taunt off a mara pull, and then have them just cast it immediately again. It takes a decent amount of timing. Both pulls should go on cooldown when cast.
Other than these niche situations balance seems more or less fine. I cannot speak to the concerns around small man and WE in particular. SH is very strong, but there are some SW out there that put up bonkers numbers.

So 1 SH taking out a 3 man is balanced. OK...

Sounds like a skill issue on the side of the order players.

Yes, order is sooooo bad....
This is with a melee DPS
SW and SH are super strong atm, you are not wrong about that. Wait until you fight the premades with a tank that punts you in the air and they all focus you lol, those things are nasty. Once the tank punts you, you are just dead
PS: The two I lost on the bottom where only because of a Russian troll WH who would afk in spawn or not be in the fights at all, I swapped to my DoK after those SCs to let him know how I felt about that

. My winrate should be higher then that, I think the website counts wins as losses since I started playing again

First of all, in RoR, there are no groups tied exclusively to either the Destruction or Order faction.
There are only individual players who play solely on one side.
The real divide lies between guilds, which switch sides based on internal decisions.
Join a large guild, and you will always be happy with the game.

Bit of a strange statement.. When its not even been a month since there was a forum post whining about strong players swapping realm 3 times in Caledor and farming players on both realms, to the both that both realms were afraid to ram.
Can both of these situatins exsist at the same time?
a) noone as you claim are swapping to the lower pop realm with the lockout system currently in play.
b) strong players are swapping and the campaign cant progress via pvd.
Personally ive had to bite the bullet and for the first time probably ever really in my RoR history had to actively swap from one zone I signed my guild group up for on Destro side, to Order side and lose out on the goldinvestment from guildinvolve and contribution. When we internally just need 200k rps on two of our destro main characters to get into their sove and Bis gear from RR 77 to 78. Ive never really played both realms like that before, and I dont like it. But with Order having 100% aao for 3 days in a row when we played last week, we had to do it.
Claiming that noone swaps to the realm in need, is simply just not true.
Debating if enough players are doing it, sure that debate we can have.

Ahh, there it is, the usual destro loving response. Git gud... A full sov snb block tank being melted by ONE player of any class is unacceptable.
