A couple of Balthazar Farming questions - Guild Wars Forums

1. I know you can only collect 6k Balthazar faction per day via Zaishen Elite missions, but is there a specific time where that 6k faction cap resets?

2. Is the 6k balthazar faction cap per character or per account?

it's per account and it resets 24 hours after you earn it (i.e. you start at 10 am, do a full run, then you can start again at 10 am the next day) I usually wait a little bit just to make sure. (nothing is worse than being in zaishen elite and hitting a cap when your group is rolling)

Ok, I wasn't sure if the 24-hour clock started when you reached it, or if it reset every day at 4:00am or something.

hmm can u get 2k from training arenas 3k from zaishen challenge and 6k from zaishen elite each day so the total is 11k? or is 6k max?

also if your a luxon i would take advantage of JQ this weekend( luxons jsut dont seem to be losing lol) to get at least 10k pts a match(less if u somehow lose ;p) and you can get about 3k or so balthazar points a match along w/ being able to farm luxon points.

this bonus weekend has already netted me 4 zkeys( and i played for roughly an hr lol)

The pattern I regularly see when I play JQ is;

If both teams have no Mo/P juggers and N/A bombers, Luxons will win the majority of the time.

If Kurzick have Mo/P juggers and N/A bombers (and Luxon have none), Kurzicks will win nearlly every time.

If both teams have Mo/P juggers and N/A bombers, Kurzicks will win with a slight majority.
