Easiest way to get to Mineral Springs? - Guild Wars Forums

Hey I have a lvl20 monk and I want to get the shield of judgement skill at mineral springs. However, I find it impossible to get there!

I started my character in Factions, went to Kryta and reached Beacon Perch. I wanted to run down to Deldrimor war camp - Granite citadel - Mineral springs but I can't even get through Lornar's pass. at Beacon perch, I can only get a small low lvl party of henchmen and my lvl20 heroes. The whole party gets gangbanged by monsters at the middle of the map... I even tried with ranger secondary and used all running skills, but they slow me down and I die.

What should I do? How can I reach Mineral springs easier? Should I restart my monk in Prophecies? That would be a pain in the @ss though x.x I have all 3 games and Eye of the north. Please tell me what's the easiest way to reach Mineral springs! Thanks!

If you use good builds you can travel to Droknar's even with those 2 lvl 10 enchman. I've done it with me as AP caller (necro), 3 Discord heroes and 2 war enchies. Maybe you can do something similar, maybe with Ray of Judgment.

The easiest way, however, is to pay a professional runner who runs you to Droks, and maybe even to Granite Citadel.

Also, you can run to LA, then ToA, then Sanctum Cay, do that mission and complete all the 4 Crystal Desert's missions, do the Dragon's Lair and you'll find yourself at Droknar's. There you can fight your way through the southern shiverpeaks with a group of 8 lvl 20 enchmen, to the mineral springs.

Restarting your monk in prophecies won't make it any easier. You'll end up in beacon's perch if you want to go the quick route.

You can do the 'proper' but longer route with your char too: go to sanctum cay, through the desert and end up in droknar's forge.

Cheapest: Get runner to The Granite Citadel and go to Mineral Springs from there.
Most Expensive: Unlock elite skill and buy an elite monk tome. (recommended)

You're not really meant to reach Granite Citadel through Beacon's Perch. As other have stated it is indeed possible but more complicated than simply following the Prophecies storyline that will get you closer and in outposts with level 20 hench as well as 8 players parties.

As it has been mentioned as well, you can also get a runner for like 2-3k which would take you less time. Also cheaper than buying an Elite Tome.
