Default Amatz Basin FFF Guide?

Hey guys,

the other day I found out about the Amatz Basin FFF with Permas and Chargers..
But I didn't find a guide on it, so I'd like to know whether some of you know?
Especially concerning why some have to keep their health low.
Or who has to do that xD

Would be really nice of you

You're thinking of Melandru's Hope HFFF farm. Amatz Basin is the new Kurzick version.

war/para's are better than war/rit's. use a combo of fall back and charge for longer lasting speed boost. use one, run with them until it almost runs out, use the other, run back to shrine, repeat. also, if u are looking for extreme speed runs, consider using a/para's also with fall back (this however requires the use of an essence of celerity to maintain shadowform). this enables the little kurz allies to be under speed boost 100% of the time.

Thread at the bottom of this section:

From my experience W/P's are best for the shrine shouter.
["Charge!"]["Fallback!"]["Make Haste!"]["None Shall Pass!"]

Left side and middle Refugees usually don't make the complete run with Charge, so the shouter at the shrine is extremely helpful. There should be no need for a Rt/Mo with Spirits to reduce damage or block attacks for the refugees as long as you have a good team of 4 perma sins with their health low.

Records from ~340 to 398 (or whatever the highest is) are not much different. It's all a matter of luck of the spawns. I've been on teams where no refugees died, no party members died, no Chargers were AFK, and I ran Shrine shouter, and we hit 340.

This is a nice run. I never got into the orginal HFFF. How many points an hour could you net with that?

I was never an expert but I had always heard that the best could get 400 faction per minute (~50 second run, ~10 seconds to get back to town and back out). That would place it at 24k an hour - the best runs of the new Amatz Basin can get 1.5x that per hour.

However, those people were also getting 150g each minute, which equals 9k an hour - and that's not counting if they were running two people at 100g each, which would add another 12k. Personally I'm not a fan of doing either but if I was going to grind the title I'd rather flag heroes for slightly less faction and buttloads more money.
