Aldmeri Dominion
The Aldmeri Dominion is arguably the best alliance in eso. Its reputation for being a fun alliance is earned through its fun dialogues, good climate, and diverse races. Its members are dedicated to one campaign, and many of them flock to it for the unique experience. Those who are unsure about the best alliance to choose can select the Explorer’s Pack, which allows you to have any race you want in any alliance. Having your whole character in one alliance earns you respect from the PvP folks, as they know that you can choose the best race and faction to play with.
The Aldmeri Dominion is a small, new alliance that emerged in response to the threat that younger races pose in Tamriel. While the Molag Bal forces were able to take the Imperial City, the High Elves of Summerset reached out to neighboring races, including the Khajiit. Queen Ayrenn, who leads the alliance, aims to restore the Elven rule over Cyrodiil and crush Molag Bal’s forces.
There are three main factions in Elder Scrolls Online: the Ebonheart Covenant, the Ebonheart Pact, and the First Aldmeri Dominion. Players are not required to choose an alliance, but it can help you in the long run. The Alliance system allows you to change your Race, Name, and Allegiance, which can help you in PvE and PvP.
Daggerfall Covenant
The Daggerfall Covenant is an alliance of three races: Bretons, Orcs, and Redguards. The alliance is located in the High Rock and is headed by High King Emeric. Players start their game in Daggerfall. You can change your race, name, and alliance by using the tokens. The alliance will change the name of your character if you want to. One other difference between the three races is the alliance system. Players may not like what the Alliance system has to offer, so it’s a good idea to explore all of the alliance options.
The Daggerfall Covenant was the best alliance in the Second Era. However, it collapsed prior to the formation of the Second Aldmeri Dominion because of infighting. The alliance’s objective is to restore peace to Tamriel. The alliance’s leaders are Bretons, who founded the Aldmeri Dominion in 4E 29. They advocated for the supremacy of Mer over Men and the creation of a new Merethic Era.
The Daggerfall alliance’s storyline starts on Stros M’kai, where you meet Captain Kaleen and Jakarn. Jakarn is recruited by the alliance and you’ll start your journey on Stros M’kai. This island is also the starting area of the Daggerfall Covenant. In addition to being the best alliance in ESO, it’s also one of the most interesting and most rewarding alliances in the game.
Ebonheart Pact
The Ebonheart Pact was formed after the Akaviri invaded the North. This alliance is a union of various races, including the Dunmer, Nords, Argonians, and even the infamous Nightborne. This alliance covers every aspect of combat, from battling the enemies to building their own strongholds. There are many advantages to be had by joining the Ebonheart Pact, but you should know what you’re getting into.
The Ebonheart Pact has the most interesting zones. Two of these zones are familiar from TES5 Skyrim, including the infamous Naryu. While the storylines in EP zones are decent, they lack the cohesiveness of the other Alliances. The good news is that the EP zones are beautiful and offer plenty of lore on Argonians. In addition, the Ebonheart Pact can easily hold its own in PvP campaigns.
While the Alliance War has its advantages, the Ebonheart Pact is still a fragile alliance. This alliance was created out of necessity and will need to overcome divisions to maintain its status. Both Dark Elves and Nords are bitter enemies, while Argonians were once slaves of the Dark Elves. These two groups came together after the invasion of the Akaviri and formed the Ebonheart Pact. This alliance is geared toward fighting the Empire, which is a common enemy of the Alliances.
