19s31901 Posted June 4, 2023 Share Posted June 4, 2023 Currently, even NCsoft (internal) shown a ratio of 6.2 (elyos) to 3.8 (asmo) at all times. But asmo are more active in seige and more geared player(at the moment). But since NC is planning to hand out free pvp gear to everyone, things would flip soon if elyo's pve hero also comes to seige or open pvp. So any plan from NC on this? LFG on Asmo is much less active then elyos, it would take 50% more time to LFG anytime for asmo (even during peak hours). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zarbi Posted June 4, 2023 Share Posted June 4, 2023 Siege balance is determined by participation rate. Just like voter turn out in an election. It's not something you can control easily. More active, and coordinated Legion leaders, can make a huge difference to siege turnout. Also if players don't think they can win, they wont bother to try.

Zarbi Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 (edited) Today on Nezekan, the leaders started calling many hours earlier, than they have in the past, for people to attend the Temple of Scales siege. That worked, and we finally got enough of a turn out to take the fort for the first time. It wasn't a faction balance issue, just a participation issue.

LFG on Asmo is much less active then elyos, it would take 50% more time to LFG anytime for asmo (even during peak hours). If you mean NZ then the gear statement would be correct. On SL however the Elyos HEAVILY outgear the Asmos right now (Asmos are winning on the stigma front though) But siege results are ALWAYS going to be based on turn out, numbers are pinnacle and will determine siege outcome. 100% of the time. Sadly people show up when they want to and there's no real way to control that outside of heavy advertising and pre-planning. I did however notice an extremely sharp drop off on elyos siege participation on SL since the executor patch. However based on how the last Agent skirmish went it seems that the elyos will show up in droves to things they want still. I dunno if they prefer the buff or what right now, but it's interesting to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You get more plat medals, they didnt nerf they buffed the medal gain. Also you get up to 6 plats from taking the fort. It's why some people have full ABG already.

The emphasis has moved to the camps around the map where you can get 5 plat medal shards daily per quest. So people can still get medals regardless of the forts.

So you do still have the ability to earn without the forts, however you still get more plats by taking the forts. You also get plats from the siege itself. There is still big incentive to take the forts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The daily quests from the camps pay much better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However due to mechanics you have to solo or small group to maximize rewards and contribution. Just the way NC made sieging now. Alliances and league usually get shards the solo and small groups medals. Contribution split among way more players in Alliance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyfur Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 Most of the Asmos on Nezekan have stopped playing. It started when the Elyos went to Gelk to take asmo forts instead of their own Inggison forts. Very strange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zarbi Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 (edited) I checked a few minutes after the siege, today, and there were 23 Elyos 55s onlline, but only 6 Asmo 55s. A couple of weeks ago when I last checked, the number of 55s at siege time were within 10% of each other. Edited June 28, 2023 by Zurl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyfur Posted July 5, 2023 Share Posted July 5, 2023 Someone in LFG ,on the Elyos side, reported that there was only 3 L55 Asmos logged on Nezekan during the siege a little while ago. Is this true? WTF? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I took a screen shot of the Asmos online list as evidence, but I don't know how to upload images to this forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carensell Posted July 7, 2023 Share Posted July 7, 2023 Been on NZ since near its start, it is as dead as the moon. Elys did a great job discouraging we Asmos. As stated earlier if you cant win why play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also happen on Israphael a couple of years ago, not long after Classic launched. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ping Posted July 8, 2023 Share Posted July 8, 2023 I have been playing Asmo on Nezekan for several weeks now, and I saw the massive decline in L55s players, I estimate about 75% stopped playing. It started when the Elyos came over to our side and took the fort we were trying to take. Seems the Elyos siege leaders, in their wisdom (or lack there of), decided it would be better to take Gelk forts instead of the ones in Inggison. You can see atm. both Gelk forts are currently green, whilst both Inggison forts are still pink, so we can't enter Silentra to do quests, or get to Telos and Besh. I see no point in the Elyos taking forts any longer, because they no longer have need for PvP gear. They would be better off doing Besh runs for PvE gear. Nezekan has pretty much come to and end, it's time to merge with Siel. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, it's well past time for a merge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
