Help with FoW - Guild Wars Forums

OK I have compiled a bunch of questions to ask about fow and the fow armor.

1. Where do you start when you enter the FoW?
2. Are there any runners doing armor runs?
3. For the 2 quests needed to craft your armor from the Eternal Forgemaster, what difficulty do you give them on a scale of 1-10 (1 being easy 10 being hard)?
4. I want to get FoW armor for my W/Mo, is there a certain build I must follow?
5. Is it possible to solo FoW until you get to the area where you can craft your armor? (W/anything, I have unlocked all secondaries)

That's all I can think of for now...might be back with more questions.

Thanks in advance.

1. Where do you start when you enter the FoW?

Temple of Ages, statue of Balthazar, pay 1k, no henchies, must be ascended

2. Are there any runners doing armor runs?

No. Although there are groups that sometimes advertise in the services section here that help you - for a price, a high one - fight your way to the armor.

3. For the 2 quests needed to craft your armor from the Eternal Forgemaster, what difficulty do you give them on a scale of 1-10 (1 being easy 10 being hard)?

Once you know them, they aren't hard. Until you do, they are.

4. I want to get FoW armor for my W/Mo, is there a certain build I must follow?

All FOW armor looks the same, so you can cherry pick.

5. Is it possible to solo FoW until you get to the area where you can craft your armor? (W/anything, I have unlocked all secondaries)

There are areas that can be soloed - forrest and spider cave - but I do not know of anyone who can solo the quests to get the armor.

With the recent alteration of how items grab aggro, it might be a little harder (but maybe faster) to get the armour. But as a w/mo, your chances of getting a group capable of actually doing it might be quite low indeed.

Also, are you aware of the actual costs of Fissure Armour? If you did not know how to get to the fissure in the first place..

My original question was where do you start when you're in FoW. That means once you get into it (which I do know how) where are you? Forest? Cave? etc. and for #4, I know that they are all the same, I just wanted to know if during the course of fighting inside FoW, should I carry my casual fighting build, or a different build?

Thanks for the responses.

You start in the Tower of Courage (or nearby it).

As for builds, meh, anything will do if the bonder is good.
