Few weeks ago destro was dominating the lakes, last days order seems to rule. my observation: both sides are too powerful and need some nerfs :^)

also this will be an affirmation of the : "Majority of players , play both realms."

Both sides always complain about their side always losing scenarios. Roll a destro toon, read /ad or /3 for a few mins and it'll invariably happen.

The number 3 out of 20, well that isn't Order's success rate - that is your success rate. I manage fairly close to 50% when playing Destro or Order (I almost exclusively queue for PuG scen when soloing though - this could be manage issue for you, other scens you'll hit premades). Maybe consider if there is something you can do to improve your chances of winning. Are you a tank using guard often (including swapping), are you a properly geared DPS, are you running a sub-par spec?

As for RvR, well ya, it's been pretty zergy for both sides depending on time of time.

One great thing about Xrealming, you get to see first hand both sides dropping nearly identical complaints.

IMO sc's are the closest to live. I pretty much pugged 2 toons to 80 rr on live. It was the exact same feast or famine environment as now. If you time things right, you luck into grouping with a premade for a few cycles. Other times the sc gods are against you and you just have to either grind your way through it or ORvR, lvl alt,or work on crafting when you feel your blood pressure begin to rise.

I think these is the same players, Xrealmers, who switching side and complaining about the other side. switching side to many time drive them mad, this is my analysis.
When they play their Orda char : Damn destro char are Op, let's play destro now !
When they play Destro : Damn Orda char are awesome, let's play my WP dps !
...

I play Order, and I get my butt stomped pretty often by mobs of Destro. Sometimes there aren't many on, other times there are tons of them on.

1) no bag reward anymore for defenders, so it flavors the xrealm for the attacker side if already outnumbering, it's a snowball effect
2) doors only hitable by ram, so the outnumbering attacker side has loads of idling ppl, waiting some defenders to show themselves on walls and booooom ! Instead of being busy on doors.
3) range stun on 2 big rdps for order, increasing the 'boooom' effect on 2) and destro non-premade wb/parties feeling helpless, so back to 1) where Mara#932 relogs his SW#1752 to get some fun too.

AAO is right, if you can actually manage to kill someone while defending. Currently the 2) prevents any funny AND a bit effective keep defense if outnumbered.

But seriously... what is going on in T4?

My observations are that theres plenty of destro that could be able to set up a solid defense but there are no proper pug-leaders willing to lead them and fix groups. And when there are, they often rage-quit after one zone-lock rather than preparing for the next zone. Destro usually awakes around 20:00 GMT when other more organized guild WB's joins in and gets something going.

Scenarios are all about having a decent group that you join with or only join the pug scenario solo.
