Default Fastest Vanq Times

Concentrating on my faction title lately, and along with some alliance mates, I've been vanq'ing different Kurzick areas (Ferndale, Morostov Trail, etc.). To maximize efficiency, both in terms of faction points and time spent, I was curious which area all you title grinders have been concentrating on and how much time it takes you to vanq the area. As a sidenote, I'm curious to see the fastest time to vanq Ferndale so far...with a celerity, me and an alliance mate with a discord team and a sabway team were able to clear Ferndale in 33 minutes. Wondering if there is a faster, more productive vanq in the Kurzick area? Thanks in advance. Btw: if you come up with 28 minutes or something crazy, screenshots would help

30 min for Ferndale with a testbuild and with a good friend of mine. After asking a few of my other friends and guildmates the build we run seems to be more efficent than the typical sabway/discord. I'll post it later after a few more test runs to see if it works out really well.

Ferndale gets me about 25k a run, 10k from the blessing and 15k from the vq.

For those without vq partners, Arborstone is an easy one that gets 23-24k in about 1:10 with H&H. I do it with an RoJ monk, 2 RoJ heroes, minion bomber hero, 2 healer henchies (Danika and Redemptor Karl), and 2 necro henchies (Sheena and Eve). I'm thinking about trying to replace the MB with another RoJ monk and adjust their builds to provide more heal and prot, so I can replace one of the healer henchies with some additional damage/utility. Erys Vasburg, perhaps, since he seems to be a pretty good dominator for a henchie.

Hit r10 Kurz trying to figure out which of these works best for me...(the following times are all for H/H, no cons).

Ferndale: Best Time-30 minutes, Average Time-32 Minutes
Arborstone: Best Time-34 Minutes, Average Time-38 Minutes
Eternal Grove: Best Time-21 Minutes, Average Time-25 Minutes
Morostav Trail: Best Time-29 Minutes, Average Time-32 Minutes

Just me on my VoR mesmer with a variant discordway. All of the times have room for improvement, of course. Take care ^_^

I just built a Discordway team yesterday and did some Luxon vq (strictly H&H) working on the title. Wow. The speed and ease was unbelievable compared to the Sabway I'd been running. I'm going to give it a try on the Arborstone vq, but I'm quite sure I'll cut the time I posted above, with my smite team, by half.

basically a speed clear, multiple 600/smite + supports and runner. They split up and clear different areas separately.
