Torn between an Engi or a SH so the deciding factor then is which side is losing.

Pretty even actually.  Sometimes Destro pushes, sometimes Order.  You can now have characters from both factions on Gorfang server though there is an 8 hour lockout.  PM me and I'll tell you how to work around it.

WAR gets really old really fast if either side isn't strong enough to put up enough of a challenge, trust me. I played on a destro dominated server and I ended up having to change servers because it was just so boring.

Go for balanced combat, trust me. It's more fun.

Ah, yeah... forgot about that. Someone told me that in the official forums a few days ago! Guess I won't have to worry then about which class to roll! :D

Well right now id say SH is better in the lower tiers, but in T4 they are pretty gimped due to current mitigation of physical damage in the new gear. However, if your ejust starting out with a new SH, by the time you reach T4 they will hopefully have the armor changes on the live servers and SH will be more equal again.

Engi has some issues with getting through physical mitigation, but not as much due to having more non-phys skills.

Recently resubbed myself to check it out and transferred my characters to Gorfang.  Nice server with some great people so far, but too bad the stupid lockout stuck me with playing the side I don't want to play till late late tonight.

Meh.

While I do see both sides push throughout the day. I would say that Order seems to have the numbers during the day time and at night during prime time, destro seems to have the numbers.
