Weeee!! The Kurzick title track is the last one I need for GWAMM (already maxed Luxon).

Got 6.6million so far.. 3.4 million to go. This weekend should make a nice dent in that number!

Do a lot of the low end P vs P here either in Ft. Aspenwood or JQ. Rule of thumb has always been Luxon side has always been a much shorter wait to get into then the kurzicks. I've also seen way more bots on the Luxon side and an apathetic crowd which doesn't like to report them on that side. I have both titles maxed so I bounce back and forth on either side all things depending but if I want a short wait and fast faction, I always go luxon. This weekend should prove interesting though with people wanting their amber chunks.

Anyone else tend to find these same things ? I'd like to know how others experiences have been. I'm usually in there a few times each day or in the evenings.

Shorter waits on Luxon side and way more bots

Kurzick side much longer waits and sometimes many afkers due to the long waits or ppl just thinking they are going to win anyway and hoping no one will notice. I would have to say though that unless you have folks sync joining in JQ most of the JQ games do go to the kurzicks.

I haven't done any of the luxon or kurzick titles, any ideas which side is the best for this weekend?

Zebideedee · Feb 24, 2010, 04:13 PM // 16:13

Woot, Kurzick is last title I need for GWAMM, then I can semi retire till GW2 comes out!

Ps. Aspi if you're vanq'ing I find that the Kurzick areas have a lot more monsters than Luxon.

This is a great way for me to replace the amber I just merched (1 hr spamming amber 1k vs. 1 min sell sell sell sell for 900 gold) Time is the decider for me. I did make the trader drop down in the 800 range at the end of my selling frenzy

This should be a good weekend for me.

Wyndy · Feb 24, 2010, 05:08 PM // 17:08

I remember from the last event that A-net seemed to open more instances for Fort Aspenwood so the wait times aren't too bad for the Kurzick side, better than usual in fact.

Dark-NighT · Feb 24, 2010, 06:29 PM // 18:29

Ah good, more vanquishing in luxon areas, silent surf here i come.

Amigad!

Im away this weekend

Just when I'm looking to max my title... daaamn!

imnotyourmother · Feb 25, 2010, 04:53 PM // 16:53

No way more bots on the KUR side.. and lechers.

I played a game last night with 4 lechers. I wanted to just map out but then I would be just as bad as them. so, our team just all stood in the fort and waited for the 10-0 score instead of giving half the team faction on our backs.

This has to be changed and I do not care how good 4 people are, your never going to in 4-8.

Ever played Quake 2 Lithium mod? They had a great way for campers(similar a-holes to leechers)to either be killed or start moving. Bots might solve this but it's better than nothing

Solas · Feb 25, 2010, 11:34 PM // 23:34

so the best way to get faction this weekend is vanqing random kurz/lux areas?

SkekSister · Feb 26, 2010, 12:00 PM // 12:00

Both DSC and MQSC seem to be gone, at least until someone comes up with a pug friendly team. So aye grab yer guild or heroes n vanq as fast as you can.

isildorbiafra · Feb 26, 2010, 12:08 PM // 12:08

Lol to all you SF & 600/smite vanquishers afther last nights update. Now if you want to max your titles; head over to pvp and get ready for a good ass whippin. Finaly titles you'll have to earn. ^^

I'm looking forward to collect at least 50 zkeys over the weekend.

Space · Feb 26, 2010, 12:32 PM // 12:32

Looking forward to some fun AB matches, these weekends usually bring out the decent players on both sides.

AB & JQ != pvp

Maxing the titles via vanquishing is earning it just as much as playing 'pvp'. You kill stuff, you get points ... Just because you prefer doing it one way doesn't mean another way is wrong.

Shayne Hawke · Feb 26, 2010, 02:48 PM // 14:48

I can imagine that Seeping Wound sins will be popular in JQ this weekend.

I was thinking that some kind of Demonic Flesh nuker might be successful at taking out shrines, but that would have required the Shadow Form change to leak over into PvP.

heheheh You used "AB" and "decent players" in the same sentence. j/k

I didn't know Faction Weekend was coming but still managed to grab the ZC for JQ on several of my chars.

I've already maxed my Kurz doing JQ almost exclusively. One donate from r10 on Luxon. It appears to me that I'm earning Lux faster than Kurz simply due to the timer. I can get in 2-3 matches on the Lux side in JQ in about the same time I got 1 match on Kurz side. If we lose every match, the faction earned is about equal. If we win at least one in 6, Lux comes out ahead.

Also on the bot thing... I don't see bots very often in JQ anymore. (Maybe it's the time of day that I play) Still lots of nubs and leechers though. Nothing depresses me more than starting a match on my contagion bomber and realizing I have 4 AoE using, quarry scattering elementalists on my team. Oh... and 3 warriors.
