What can I do when America doesnt have favor - Guild Wars Forums

!!!nexus!!! · Jul 22, 2006, 04:50 PM // 16:50

Well I waited to long to start PVP so im rank: 0 so finding a decent pvp guild will prolly be impossible.

I have a lvl 20:
MM*
SS*
55*
Healer*
Tank*
Nuker
Assassin*

I've heard rotskale takes 40-45 minutes and a green worth 10k is not even gauranteed...also War Camp and TOMBS greens have seemed to have lost value.
Also I have no server switches left =(

*=Factions and Proph chars

Are you looking to have fun or farm till your eyes melt out? The answer changes depending on that.

Anakin The Paladin · Jul 22, 2006, 05:55 PM // 17:55

I think Rotwing is worth around 20-30k but thats besides the point.

Well you could solo greens in Cantha,ive never had many drops but you might.

You could delete your PvP and make a Story Nuker.

You could explore the map and take screenies of cool stuff.

If you have quests you can do those to get more experience.

Im sure there is plenty of other stuff to do besides UW/FoW.

If you are looking for a guild go here.

Finding a decent pvp guild does not mean joining one that only wants people of Rank blah. Personally, I'd avoid those guilds like the plague. Rank doesn't necessarily mean you're good at pvp, it means you're experienced with TopK (before it got changed) and HA.

This game is about skill, but not just skill with your character(s), you also have to be reasonable good at working with other people. The best player in the world could join any guild, but until the team learns to work together, they will not win. This holds true for all guilds. You can't expect to join guild X and instantly win at GvG or HoH, it takes practice.

The best guilds IMO are those that look past a stupid number and actually look at the person. You could be great at GvG, but inexperienced in HoH, meaning you have a low rank.

make a new char in pre-searing and get as much isis flower as u can and brg it to post. then give it to ppl to spread joy to the world

Arkantos · Jul 22, 2006, 07:18 PM // 19:18

You can do anything in the world except for FoW/UW.

Former Ruling · Jul 22, 2006, 07:22 PM // 19:22

From your suggestions, it seems you want to farm.

Troll/Mino Farm then...(alternate so farming code doesn't strike).

Or if you REALLY want..try to farm some Canthan Greens, you aren't gaurenteed anything, and most have lost value though.

Kook~NBK~ · Jul 22, 2006, 09:59 PM // 21:59

You wouldn't want to party up with rank-happy elitists anyway. It may be harder to get into a HA group with no rank, but there are people out there who won't mind taking you under their wing and showing you the ropes.

Alliance Battles are a fun way to PvP without all the stress that comes with HA.

shardfenix · Jul 22, 2006, 10:39 PM // 22:39

My honest suggestion for anyone trying to get into pvp is to do one of two things.

1: Iway to rank 3, then never do iway ever again. Once you hit rank 3 (which is the hardest to get to), it becomes much easier to join low ranked spikes and balanced groups, and your 180 iway fame will not be too much, so you wont be dependant on playing a mindless build.

2: Practice monking, and only do monking. There is an extreme shortage of good monks in HA, especially when youre pugging. If you become really good at it, it will be much easier to not only find groups, but earn fame.

I think they nerfed red iris it's hard to find alot, I find like 3-4 per zone in area.

jimmy_logic · Jul 23, 2006, 12:03 AM // 00:03

No Favour means you can always go into RA/TA or the new Factions PvP areas to go have fun... instead of farming FoW and the U/W. It will hone your PvP skills as well so you can get a group in HA.
