rank 1? - Guild Wars Forums

Count Feanor · Feb 19, 2008, 02:49 PM // 14:49

Sorry, if I seem really ignorant, but I've never been big on PvP. I wanted to get those Kurzick/Luxon skills (we are a Luxon guild and I know the skills are the same for both) but apparently, you need to be at least rank 1 to purchase them. How many points do you need to give to get rank 1? How can you check how many points you currently have?

Proff · Feb 19, 2008, 02:54 PM // 14:54

To be rank 1 you need to have donated 100000 faction to one side, this is really 50000 faction if you donate it to your alliance. You can check your proress by pressing H and looking for the " Friend of the Luxons/Kurizks Title Trank".

Thanks for your help.

Do I need to do that personally, or as a guild?

Artisan Archer · Feb 19, 2008, 03:09 PM // 15:09

You have to do that yourself

Toutatis · Feb 19, 2008, 03:11 PM // 15:11

You have to do it personally, but you can do it with any of your characters. The Kurzick/Luxon allegiance titles are tied to your whole account rather than just a single character

Count Feanor · Feb 19, 2008, 03:42 PM // 15:42

What if you gave like 20k faction when Factions first came out? I heard something a while back that it diminishes over time. Is that true, or would my title still show that?

Kattar · Feb 19, 2008, 03:48 PM // 15:48

Ummmm....you're playing against other people instead of computer AI...

So that's PvP.

I probably shouldn't feed the troll though.

And yes, your title will still show. Factions accrued only decreases when you donate it to the alliance or guild. The alliance or guild's faction decreases, not yours.

Darkobra · Feb 19, 2008, 03:51 PM // 15:51

When you donate faction to your guild, your guild's faction diminishes over time. This stops larger guilds holding outposts for a longer amount of time.

However, once you donate your faction, it still goes towards your rank without diminishing. This means you can pace yourself in getting to rank 1.

Count Feanor · Feb 19, 2008, 03:53 PM // 15:53

Thanks so much for your guys' help! I just have one last quick question that I'm sure many have already asked. Is there a quicker way than AB to accrue faction?

Kattar · Feb 19, 2008, 03:56 PM // 15:56

FFF or HFFF.

May not be quicker per se, I don't know, I haven't done the research (but it seems to be)...and it's definitely boring. It depends on whether you actually want to "play" or not.

The Way Out · Feb 19, 2008, 04:01 PM // 16:01

If you Kurzick hfff you get 10k faction every forty minutes or so (fast runner). When you donate faction to a guild, you get double towards your title (20k when you donate 10k). So, in about four hours of hfff with a fast runner, you get 100k faction donated. Understand?

Count Feanor · Feb 19, 2008, 04:05 PM // 16:05

I feel really dumb for asking this, but what is hfff?

Kattar · Feb 19, 2008, 04:06 PM // 16:06

Hero fast faction farming.

And don't feel dumb, that's why we're here. It's also why the wiki exists.

Sweet, thanks again guys. I'll look up exactly what Hero Fast Faction Farming is on wiki when I get home.

The Way Out · Feb 19, 2008, 04:10 PM // 16:10

If you want, friend me ig and I will do a few runs with you. Most of the members in my guild were from the old fff days. I need to max out my title on this account, so I would more than willing to let you tag along. However, you have to be Kurzick aligned. You could join us until you got your rank one and then leave. If you are interested, I will see if I can get an open slot in the guild for you.

Count Feanor · Feb 19, 2008, 04:13 PM // 16:13

That's cool. What's your IGN? If you want it private you can send me a private message. Thanks.
