And, big surprise, the people who don't know, and get a run, probably don't give a burnt rats arse about the Shining Blade.

Why cant we go back to the days where it was prophecies only. Slower leveling, better players, hard as hell to play. mm hmmm the good ol days.
Prophecies was and is by far the easiest campaign in terms of difficulty... even with the henchmen who use craptastic skills and are always 3 levels or so behind you (going through at an average leveling pace) there were very few spots I had trouble with in prophecies when I first went through it over 2 years ago. THK was simple, anyone who says otherwise is sad or can't follow instructions and/or called targets. The only place I can remember getting stuck was at Hell's Prepice because most pugs couldn't do it, and that wasn't a huge deal since I could still do everything else throughout Tyria until I got a capable group.

the fastest way would probably be: create char 2ndary as mesmer or warrior if u are a mesmer -> academy ->northern wall-> yaks-> LA -> and so on although i said proph missions are the most boring if your trying to be a title RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GO like i said in the worst missions thread but if your playing for fun is which i try to do prophecies is by far the most enjoyable.

(best war armor in the game is elite charr, fow is over rated and all others are bland, would of been gladiator if they didnt release that gay helm which only looks good if your a elf from lotr)

wow i get off track well really easilly but untill i get home ill be babbling on in these forums.

Factions has 2k+ rewards on the tutorial island, as does Nightfall. Nightfall also has bounties which give you double xp.

The real reason is that people wanted more level 20 content than Prophecies had. So they made it in Factions you leveled to 20 quick, so that nearly all the content was for level 20s. Then people said the leveling was too fast so they eased it up in Nightfall.

If you are going to criticize, at the least use spell check(or were you trying to be ironic?).

I think Factions was why we have a flood of monks who don't know how to heal. People who started out in Proph seem to have a handle of the subtleties in the game. Others tend to see it as c-space-c-space-c-space.......

here's my guess.. as Prophecies is the first campaign they made,
they made it so it's time consuming, hoping that the gaming community will last longer this way.

but after community's input, they decided they shouldn't make each campaign as tedious, instead keep developing new campaign so community will go for long time.. just my guess tho.


NF was my first guildwar campaign I played, so prophecy feels really tedious, but I like the environment so Im still playing it tho..
