Not sure that the CV his really important (I mean in term of number of publications and/or citations)...
The only think you have to do is to strictly follow the guidelines and to have a sexy proposal and of course a lot of luck !
It is my second attempt and last year I get any comments on my CV.

4th attempt for me! I don't think Cv was crucial any time! Proposal excellence was always the key-factor for my previous rejections! I hope this helps! ;)

It is also my second attempt and last year I got a comment on my cv ... but I'm not sure it was that relevant for the decision as in the guidelines such parameter it is not mentioned...

Cv usually has no impact on outcome. May I ask you to share the comment you have received?

Don't pay attention to the comment you received. The number of publications has no impact. However, there are always reviewers that are stupid and have not read the manual for evaluators.
Getting this fellowship is pure luck (whether or not you get reviewers that like your project and thinks is an excellent one).

I heavily doubt the number of publications has no impact. Everything you include or not include has an impact, you just have to weigh everything, and as you mentioned, he got reviewers (stupid or not) that considered it, so it had (has) an impact.

Additionally, the number of (first or corresponding) author publications is an easy evaluation method to see if the person might be better suited than others. Especially because most reviewers dont read everything in detail and things like this stick out easily

Publish or perish, that is sadly how it goes in science (even if MSCA claims to minimize its impact for the fellowhip)
