Luxon Faction Farming - Guild Wars Forums

Do the Luxons have an easy, repeatable quest for faction farming like the Kurzicks do? (Securing Echovald Forest)

Spike · Jul 05, 2006, 07:22 PM // 19:22

Yes its called the jade arena. Not far from Breaker hollow. Its also good for chesting hunting too as two or even three chests can spawn in the nearby hills.

From guild wiki, all the repeatable quests have the little clockwise arrow after the quest.

Darth Marth · Jul 05, 2006, 08:56 PM // 20:56

Yes, but the Jade Arena doesn't appear to be runnable like Securing Echovald Forest is. Are there any Luxon quests like it?

Swinging Fists · Jul 05, 2006, 09:12 PM // 21:12

The Luxon supply line quest is still "almost" runnable, but you probably need to bring a couple friends along. Also, you will need to kill 2 fish attacking the quest reward NPC at the end. I'm not sure about the "securing" quests, as people don't seem to do them much and I can't really compare them to Securing Echovald Forest, as I'm not sure how that works. Can that quest be run without fighting, and without significant risk of dying ? Is that the one that can be done before taking the quest, then taking and redeeming the quest at the same time, thus avoiding all Luxons ?

That's right. Do the Luxons have anything like that?

This topic came up in a thread not too long ago. Someone mentioned that one of the Luxon quests behaves like this, but I can't personally confirm. It is one of two with a name similar to the Securing Echovald Forest quest.

You mean Scout the Coast?

zzzzzz

the kurzick one can be ran. My assasin ran it without and run skills so im sure other classes could do it. As for luxons i dont know. Never played a luxon

Darth Marth · Jul 06, 2006, 02:31 AM // 02:31

Is no one here a Luxon??

TheMosesPHD · Jul 06, 2006, 08:17 AM // 08:17

Luxons have...ugly armor...I was Luxon at first, but I don't remember anything as easy to repeat as the Kurzick ones.

Kijik Oni Hanryuu · Jul 06, 2006, 08:32 AM // 08:32

hey hey hey Luxon Necro 15K armor FTW Jade arena is about the beast FF quest with a decent group, 3-4 min run including chest running for 400 Faction and some gold. oh and luxon ranger armor aint too shabby either. Oh and ima luxon, look at the guild tag

Darth Marth · Jul 06, 2006, 05:16 PM // 17:16

It seems like there probably is a mission like Securing Echovald Forest, since the top Luxon alliance has about as much Faction as the top Kurzick alliance. Can ANYONE check and see if Scout the Coast is like it?

Darth Marth · Jul 06, 2006, 08:15 PM // 20:15

Since there don't appear to be any helpful Luxons, I managed to reach the quest and test it to confirm that yes, it does work like Securing Echovald Forest. Although it's much harder to run with swarms of Yeti and insane blood-spiking mobs of Rot Wallows...

Vahn Roi · Jul 06, 2006, 08:21 PM // 20:21

I just do aspenwood. I may be slightly slower than the now-nerfed supply runs, but it's a fun way to get 700+ faction

Monkey Blonde · Jul 06, 2006, 09:41 PM // 21:41

I'm a Luxon, and a member of the Keys alliance, also formerly in the TC alliance before reforming into Keys. The easiest faction farming on the Luxon side, at least of the repeatable quests, is the Jade Arena. Nothing easily runnable ahead of time like Securing Echovald Forest.

Darth Marth · Jul 06, 2006, 09:51 PM // 21:51

Actually, I imagine a skilled Warrior probably could run Scout the Coast... Still I don't see any ff groups in Breaker Hollow. Why does no one run this?

Spike · Jul 07, 2006, 01:10 AM // 01:10

Because Jade arena is quicker to do.

Darth Marth · Jul 07, 2006, 02:02 AM // 02:02

Still, the Securing Echovald Forest/Scout the Coast way only requires one person to do anything, which would seem to make it more desirable... Also, it looks like Breaker Hollow is the best place to start both quests from, but I don't see any farmers there. Do the Luxons do challenge/competitive missions for faction or something?
