Those missions are dead; nobody is there, nobody is doing them. I made a PvP character hoping to jump into the action when I first got Factions, and unfortunately, PvP characters don't have access to the fun missions involving Turtles (the Jade Mines and Fort Aspenwood).

71 Hours later, the Jade Mines are still totally barren of people, and Fort Aspenwood takes a while to get into a mission.

Could you PLEASE improve this somehow? I suggest letting PvP characters dive right in (giving a big shot of warm bodies), but whatever you do, please make things happen. We had a party of four waiting around to do the Jade quest earlier, and couldn't because we couldn't get eight people to stand around.

Those missions are part of the PvE content. There were many discussions about why PvE players are forced to do PvP alike missions. Obviously they are not very eager to play them. Another thing is that many players did not reach the missions yet. The closed gate meganism holds up causual players who don't play many hours a day.

I understand you like to play them. But allowing PvP chr's would be an admittance by Arenanet that those missions are no PvE missions. I think the PvE community would jump into that inmediately to demand replacement by new PvE content

Wonder how they see those as 'PvE missions', they have much nothing to do with Factions storyline (primary quests lead you to believe that you united the Kurzik/Luxon sides).. And of course there is another team of players that try to kill you

Ohwell, if ANet has decided so... Hope they come non-ghost towns sometime soon.

Uhhh.... how in the world are they considered PvE missions?

In the two days I spent beating it(it really didn't take that much time... really)... I spent no time at all PvPing...

They aren't required.... and in fact they don't even give much of a faction reward. You could do the supply run/repeatables for faction.

I'm not currently in a guild at the moment, but I still wanna pvp against some Kurzicks. I go to Fort Aspenwood... and I ALWAYS have trouble getting into the mission due to lack of people, from either end.

Also, I have yet to play Jade Quarry. Why?... NO ONE IS THERE. I mean.. why not? It has yet to relate to the main storyline in any way except for running to it for faction quests.

So in conclusion /signed.
