In The Elder Scrolls Online (ESO), the "best" alliance depends on your playstyle, preferences, and goals. Each of the three alliancesAldmeri Dominion (AD), Daggerfall Covenant (DC), and Ebonheart Pact (EP)has unique lore, racial bonuses, and PvP strengths. Heres a breakdown to help you decide: Aldmeri Dominion (AD) High Elves, Wood Elves, Khajiit - Strengths: - Strong racial passives for magic DPS (High Elves) and stamina DPS (Khajiit). - Dominates in PvP (Cyrodiil) due to organized guilds and mobility. - Fastest faction for leveling (Auridon is beginner-friendly). - Best For: Magicka users, PvP players, and those who prefer agile, stealthy gameplay. Daggerfall Covenant (DC) Bretons, Redguards, Orcs - Strengths: - Best racial passives for tanks (Bretons) and stamina builds (Redguards/Orcs). - Balanced in PvP, often underdog but with strong teamwork. - Glenumbra (starter zone) is straightforward for new players. - Best For: Tanks, stamina builds, and players who enjoy a "human-centric" faction. Ebonheart Pact (EP) Nords, Dark Elves, Argonians - Strengths: - Versatile racial passives (Dark Elves excel in both magicka and stamina). - Strong in PvP due to high population (often zerg-heavy). - Best for hybrid builds and survivability (Nords tanky, Argonians great healers). - Best For: Hybrid builds, PvP zergs, and players who love "underdog" lore. Which is Best for You? PvE (Dungeons/Trials): Alliance doesnt matter (cross-alliance grouping is possible). PvP (Cyrodiil/Imperial City): - Dominion (AD): Best for organized groups. - Pact (EP): Best for large-scale battles. - Covenant (DC): Best for tactical play (often fewer players but skilled). Lore/RP: Pick based on your favorite races or storylines. Final Recommendation: New Players: Aldmeri Dominion (easy starter zone, strong racial bonuses). Tanks/Healers: Daggerfall Covenant (Bretons/Argonians). PvP Zergs: Ebonheart Pact (high population). Since One Tamriel removed alliance restrictions for PvE, your choice mainly affects PvP and story immersion. Play what feels right! Would you like advice on specific builds or races?

Great raids, some bugs

The new raid content is fantastic with challenging mechanics. However, there are still some bugs that need to be ironed out. Overall a solid expansion that keeps me coming back for more.
