I see lots of people talking bad about the alliances who have controlled Cavalon. Saying how you have too much of a real life to be able to gain the faction to win Cavalon.

I'm part of the Black Blades, I spend maybe an hour playing each day, sometimes more. This is typical of people in the alliance, sure there are people who are on for 4 or 5 hours at a time some days.......... but I'm sure this isn't specific to our Alliance. All it takes is organization and leadership. Get 10 guild together. Ask each member of that guild to farm for faction for a total of two hours over the week. You know how much faction that is. We didn't hold Cavalon so long because we are glued to our computers, but because we work as a team, have organization, and help each other out.

I personally have not made it to Cavalon, hope to tonight to help the Alliance win Cavalon back. Yes that is correct, the "Evile Black Blade Elitests" allow members who can't even farm faction yet in the alliance.

I can ynderstand people being upset about not being able to do the missionm byt instead of complaining and talking bad about people who do, put that energy towards team building in your own Alliance and put up a challange.

And for those who started flamming because we have guild meetings..... I don't know what to say. I mean, your comming down on people for something they enjoy. We get together on a team speak server and chill, discuss builds. It's just a bunch of friends discussing the game and how to keep the Alliance together and running smoothly. Really, why flame because people like to communicate in a game thats based on teamwork???????

We work toward holding Cavalon because it is a goal we set. Other peoples goal is to finish the game, earn a specific title, earn all titles, be the top in a competitive mission. There are lots of ways to play the game. Yes the deep drops zodiacs..... I have a plagueborn bow that is better than any Zodiac bow I personally have seen a guildie with yet. The Deep is not a place people NEED to have access to. You wont get better weapons, they still have the same max stats as the weapons that drop anywhere else. Cavalon is just our goal. If it is your goal, provide your alliance with leadersjip, create organization, yes.... do that horrible thing called farming for a whole hour or two a week, and have fun

Well, I for one will root for the alliance who tries to banish the whole exclusivity deal. I mean It was bad enough in prophecies w/ the whole Favor thing, but now only the top alliance can have access to a mission >_< That kinda blows. I do hope whoever controls the main cities from here on forth decide to let some outsiders in, I mean not all of us are fortunate enough to have join a top alliance. My guild is actually very strong(well atleast imho) in factions, we have about 1-150k factions to kurzick, unfortunately we dont belong to a top alliance, so being excluded really blows. I want a 15>50 ironwing longbow w/o the vamp >_< and a good Zodiac sword w/o paying out of my ass. I dont really understand the concepts of these being rare anymore, I mean these items are being sold everywhere now.

At least there is some nice guilds out there, i forget the name, was something crusaders who had control of cavalon, were ferrying people to the deep for free for ages today.
Went for a couple of runs with the peeps who were about and got near to the end of room 6 with hardly any organisation

Rank 12 is nothing compared to beating this guy.... we were a group of r6 and r9s... we were obliterated by this boss... mainly because we had 4 boon prots and no heal parties X_X... that -8 degen will own you so bad that it will make you cry!

only glitch that i have found is if you are rezed and you don't move, the area effect never comes on.. so as long as you stand still you wont get -8 degen.... we were so happy then we found out to kill him you have to knock him down..... like if his lvl 30hp wasn't enough... every time you knock him down he summons 6-10 lvl 28 shadow beasts that do eburn and choas storm to drain monks energy some more so they cant heal through the degen X_X... i would seriously bow to anyone who shares their build as to how to beat this guy. Getting to him is the easy part.... beating him is near impossible..

Dear dear Blackies, if you get satisfaction from keeping Elite Mission just by yourself and refuse to give rest of us a chance to experience greatest challenges that Factions has to offer...Then don't be surprised if you're not very popular. Some of your alliance members have already come here to speak with very arrogant way (for example empty accusations)...and therefore making your reputation even worse.

Elite Mission control is very flawed system right now --> agreed by thousands of players. Fact is that there are no really high-end areas in Factions except Elite Areas and everyone paid full money to get challenging gameplay. WHY keep the most challenging areas hidden from majority of players. You already say that missions are so challenging that 'normal' group doesn't survive down there. Well how can you care then if everyone could access them.

IMHO it's a bad design that you don't need skill to control cities, just lots of donators. Therefore there's only handful of alliances that can compete.
