Nobody can force nobody to go to sieges, and we are bad geared as well, we just dominate for few months, not enough to give the whole Asmodia population a Abyss gear. And no sorry, no buff, as I said , Marchutan/Kaisiniel buff does is unfair.
Because no ely shows up, there is not a population problem, is a assistence problem like you mention before. And yes I am a veteran Asmodian, all 4 years I played as Asmodian so I do know really well how is beeing on the minor faction (funny enough, even admins says that closing elys creation did not fix the issue, elys are more than asmos) . Gameforge, Alquima/Hellion, Asmodia, I know how is beeing on the weaker side, I know how it takes to get a Abyss gear, elys outnumber asmodian population every siege I can remember, they could rush in any fort and take it because of their sheer numbers, even some elys were complaining that Asmos didn't show up on sieges, making hard for them to get ceranium, oh, and Elys did take almost EVERYTHING on the game, even when box event on MKK, Gameforge didn't add doors on Primum a few weeks later because we canno't get a fort.
So yeah, I am splitting out nonsense and I have no facts, despite that I played as the weaker faction (Hard mode beeing Asmodian vs Easy mode of beeing Ely) and I am telling this facts. So yeah.. maybe is time to grow and acept that Ely won't gonna domain for a long time unless they grow up again and lead united.
