Ways to get a cheap run. - Guild Wars Forums

TheGuildWarsPenguin · Nov 29, 2005, 01:03 AM // 01:03

One time in beacons perch with my low-level monk, i said something like 'PAYING 60k FOR A RUN TO AMNOON. Someone pm'd me and said he would do it. I said 'sry another runner offered 10k'(but there was no other runner, i just made it up to get a low price run). Then he said he would do it for 7k and it went on with me lieing and him offering. Finally he agreed on doing it for 5k lol.

runs to droks only cost 2.5k-4k... so you didnt get a cheap run, but other than that it would work. Its how i sell my weapons (except i go higher, not lower =D)

Farthest Point · Nov 29, 2005, 01:07 AM // 01:07

wow you got ripped off dude. 5k for a run lmao

Savio · Nov 29, 2005, 01:09 AM // 01:09

I got a run to Amnoon for 6k... that's nice, you saved 1k.

TheGuildWarsPenguin · Nov 29, 2005, 01:09 AM // 01:09

I edited it to amnoon because sanctum was for my war or ele.
I didn't remember but i think it was amnoon with all outposts.

TheGuildWarsPenguin · Nov 29, 2005, 01:17 AM // 01:17

Yeah but the guild i was in when i was getting that run wasnt active.

E Power · Nov 29, 2005, 01:39 AM // 01:39

Thats horrible, don't spam like that... Just say you will pay 5k for a run and you will get one... You don't deserve a run for just toying with people like that

Wow, 5k? I do Beacons-->Sanctum for only 2k... Shoulda asked me. (But you don't know me, but that's not the point. Hehe)

quickmonty · Nov 29, 2005, 04:08 AM // 04:08

Guess it all depends on who you are dealing with. You try to change a price on me and I'll just tell you to go with the better deal. Goodbye!

Former Ruling · Nov 29, 2005, 04:27 AM // 04:27

Is it just me, or is it weird that I got a FREE run from Beacon's Perch to Droknar's when I first started >_>

He didn't even do it for "tips"..just asked for all the peopel that wanted to go to Droknar's to hop on.

How to get a free run:

1. Look for people at you run only running to the next spot, go for the ones that want tips over a set price.

2. Get run to the next spot, then look for a runner running to a proceeding spot.

3. Repeat.

Example: Beacons -> LA -> ToA -> Sanctum -> Amnoon
Beacons to LA I can usually get for free/tips, LA to ToA might be a bit harder, but I ran my level 12 r/me to bergen with distortion, illusion of haste, escape, and troll unguent. Then I got a tip runner from bergen to ToA, then they either were going to run to sanctum, or other people were. Then sanctum - Amnoon is about 200-500g depending on the deals you find.

You usually can find a tip runner going from Bergen to sanctum though, but if yours leaves at ToA, there still may be a chance you can get someone

This does not work for runs like droknars obviously.

Wow dude, what a waste of time. The ONLY way I'd consider charging 2K for that is if I had a full group (and I would still charge 3-4K probably), because that's like a 30+ minute run, stopping everywhere.
