What is quickest way to get max Armor? - Guild Wars Forums

flapjack · Jul 23, 2008, 08:57 PM // 20:57

I have all the games and expansions etc. I have normally played through from beginning to end but now am starting a survivor.

I have Lions Arch/Kamadan/Kaineng City so where do i hire to run?

Thanks

Umm, max armor is in Kaineng Center....

Everyone think that elite armor got more armor rating, but it's only more expensive and looks better.

start in NF, get a taxi to consulate docks for 500gp. Done. All but 5mins

Thanks,

Doh! didn't even look in Kaineng City.

Hehe, happens

start Prof toon, get to lvl 2 - Run Charr at the gate for 8 hours til lvl 10 go to Borial station in eye of the north. BOOM Max armor

And in Prophecies, there is the run to Droks from Beacon's Perch for max armor.

That about covers all the shortcuts in all the campaigns.

As usual make sure to bring your mats and gold.

Droks run has a rather significant risk of killing a Survivor in Dreadnaughts Drift.

A droks run is extremely unnecessary and so is the Pre-searing suggestion. EotN requires Level 10 and as mentioned Droks is unsafe and more expensive than a run to LA.

If you start a character in Prophecies then the absolutely quickest way is to go to post as soon as possible and buy a run to LA. From there it's a quick hop over to Kaineng and max armor. For someone that owns all campaigns nothing is faster for a prophecies char.

However, I'd add that the quickest and safest option is to start a NF character. You can take the ferry to the docks for instant max armor and you have fully customizable heroes to help you out from the start.

From LA and Kam, you can also just hop over to Boreal in EoTN. Grab some instant lvl20 heroes to boot.

yeah but you cant get max armor in eton until you grind to level 5 faction...so kaineng is the fastest spot to get to if you have factions (or the docks 'run' which isnt really liked by the powers that be).....

[if you are level 11 and in kamadan you can get to boreal anyways]

Jolvor would disagree with you there.

And since op has all "games and expansions" Boreal would be an easier choice then looking for and then paying for runs to Droks/Consulate Docks(provided you're already lvl 10). Factions-wise, you'll have to get to Kaineng first before you can get to Boreal, but then the max lvl armorer is already there.

The guy said he was a survivor, there is a big chance your gonna die on a droks run..Imo stick with kamadan - consulate docks
