BustroQuick · Dec 02, 2006, 11:17 PM // 23:17

Favorite: Raisu Palace

Least Favorite: Any of the Realm of Torment missions (ugly, hard and boring.)

Saraphim · Dec 02, 2006, 11:25 PM // 23:25

Ooh another res sigged thread...

Favourite: Consulate Docks. Felt so very different from any I'd done in the past, frenetic without being irritating.

Least Fave: Vizunah Square. I hate this one so much my assassin is still parked in Kaineng, and will probably never leave. I got my ele through it with no probs but only because we had a good party on the other side.

Easiest: Chahbek Village. Hardly deserves the name 'mission'. In fact all the missions up to Tihark Orchard have been pretty tame. Also found Thunderhead Keep pretty easy, but that's cos we camped the King.

Hardest: Well, Aurora Glade gave me the most issues. But we were playing a two man + hench team with no rangers to cripple the runners.

ideologue · Dec 02, 2006, 11:52 PM // 23:52

Favorite: Ascension. (killing Doppleganger that is. it counts as a mission in tyria protector). It's quick and fun.
Least Fav. hell's precipice.
easiest: Ascension
hardest: Jenur's Horde. i knew exactly what i was doing, still couldn't get master's on my hero/hench team.

Axe Addict · Dec 03, 2006, 12:17 AM // 00:17

Favourite Mission - Thirsty River , its a hoot , me and the guildies have that one down pat , last time we ran it we cleaned the board no deaths and the monk boss was a joke Mesmer power is the key , one of our guildies rocks with his mesmer.

Least Favourite - Any of the Fire Chain Islands , Titans really annoy me and spending nearly a hour just to die at the end rubs me up the wrong way

Cid · Dec 03, 2006, 12:18 AM // 00:18

Fav: Gates of Madness. Just because it felt good to kill Shiro and Lich. Especially as there was only 7 of us, we managed to cap all the God shrines with Shiro hassling us, and when we did turn our attention to THE Shiro. Impossible odds took out almost everyone, he reduced us to two. Me and a monk. Only thing left to do was to run around in a circle from him for 20 minutes whilst the monk rez'd our team. Shortly after we finished him off. Easy as.

Least Fave: Arborstone. Just a crap mission all round really

Easiest: Chakbek Village. Even Great Northern Wall had a boss that could be unkillable to some pugs. Serious.

Hardest: There arnt any really. THK at a stretch, but thats nothing with heros.

MithranArkanere · Dec 03, 2006, 12:37 AM // 00:37

Favourite:
I don't have one, I enjoy most of them.
I love killing charr, Ruins of Surmia and Nolani Academi.
I like using the ballistas a Thunderhead Keep.

Least Favourite:
Arborstone. I keep yelling 'Do not stay in debris areas!!' but they keep camping there... sigh... that gives me the nerves. I don't mind a mission being more or less har as lng as you can actually do it, but I hate people ignoren all those symbols and alerts on screen, they are there for something.

Hardest?
I don't know... I have completed all of them... I think that I must say Domain of Madness. My specialty is dealing high amounts of damage and burning, and that is what Shiro needs to wipe out a team... :P So this is one of the few areas where I need to change my "PvE Eternal Fire" build for another, and I did so only for 3 of them, not including Elite missions.
I only find really annoying the times Bonuses and Masters.

Easiest:
Chackbeck village. You can do it just by walking to the oil pits, then using the flag to make Koss kill the rest.

Malice Black · Dec 03, 2006, 12:50 AM // 00:50

This poor thread must be really disturbed by the cruel awakening its had after being dead sooo long

Fav - THK/Consulate Docks (was manic but fun)
Least Fav - Any Jungle mission (boring)
Easiest - Chackbeck Village (WTF?)
Hardest - swap that for most annoying..Frost Gate..spent hours wandering around lost when I finally got to the end I got slaughtered because henchies decided to agrro everything (this is back when I was a newb to the game)

Count to Potato · Dec 03, 2006, 01:16 AM // 01:16

Favorite: Riverside Province, I always like the way people had to sneak around in one method, or kill everything and have more of a possibilty of dieing, back then of course it was hard for me which increased my desire to play it over and over again.

Least Favorite: Thunderhead Keep, although the mission was fine, the people in it were always annoying, i was never able to use a real monk since i did it during the monk protest thing, so i had to grind with henchies which was very unpleasant and further told me that i had no interest in this mission.

Hardest: Gyala Hacthery, with henchies and only myself i wasn't able to keep the turles alive since i was a ritualist, my spirits died to often and the smoke canisters were to hard to carry three at a time so i only used one, i didn't do the usaly trick so i was stuck to healing the tutrles myself and often dping myself very badly.

Easiest: Great Northern Wall, with any speed booste possible i was able to run by the Charr and enemies, completing the mission wihtout much dmg on me.

SPIRIT OF THE SEA · Dec 03, 2006, 01:43 AM // 01:43

Fav= Imperial Sanctum
least fav= Gate Of Maddness
hardest= Gate Of Maddness
easiest= Great Northen Wall

ValaOfTheFens · Dec 03, 2006, 02:57 AM // 02:57

Favorite: Ruins of Surmia. *lol* I've helped scores of noobs with it and generally have a good time doing it. Though getting them not to aggro the Charr Fire Bearers can be hard sometimes. The whole "Wammo smash!!" thing.

Not Favorite: Tihark Orchard. Its so frigging tedious. You have to do 3 parts of the bonus just to get on with the mission. Grrr. I wish I could skip it. *sigh*

Hardest: Bloodstone Fen. I always get to the end and get owned by the White Mantle. They guard their Monks like maniacs.

Easiest: Nahpui Quarter. Once I knew what order to kill the Celestial's in it was easy.

wilq · Dec 03, 2006, 03:14 AM // 03:14

favourite: thirsty river and raisu palace
least favourite: frost gate
hardest: unwaking waters

Nevin · Dec 03, 2006, 03:19 AM // 03:19

Favorite Mission:
Consulate Docks

Least Favorite Mission:
All Realm of Torment Missions

Hardest Mission:
Grand Court of Selbekh, Masters on that mission is near impossible..

Easiest Mission:
Cahbek Village

mrmango · Dec 03, 2006, 03:38 AM // 03:38

Favorite: THK like all you others, the fort defense just owns. =)
Least favorite: Many good ones have been named, but.... the Wilds, so many twists and turns, worse if you try for bonus
Easiest: Tihark Orchard, so fun too!
Hardest: By far, Dunes of Despair, BUT ONLY if you try bonus. Otherwise it's probably Abbadon's Mouth or Jennur's Horde (Especially w/ bonus)

Spike · Dec 03, 2006, 05:41 AM // 05:41

Favourite Has to be Vizunah Square espicaly as a necro. So much fun to have all most unlitmed energy.

Least Favorite Mission and Hardest Grand Court of Selbekh

Easiest Mission Cahbek Village

Taurucis · Dec 03, 2006, 06:08 AM // 06:08

Favorite: Sunjiang District. I love the Spear of Archie (so much that each time I pick it up I yell "I got the power!") and ViM trapping works wonders. It's also straightforwards, and if you have good aggro management it merely becomes a challenge of how well you can order your team/hench around.

Least Favorite: Vizunah Square. It's a huge turn off to anyone incoming from Elona or Tyria trying the Factions storyline - the first mission you access is half impossible due to the other team. Don't forget that level 14 assassin running around with Frenzy.

Easiest: Dunes of Despair. I don't believe I've ever had ANY trouble doing it before... the siege wurms aren't that bad. I mean, 90 damage compared to a 300+ siege turtle? It's nothing. The monsters come in like they're having a lesiurely stroll through Wal-Mart, so slow that a decent PuG can wipe them out.

Hardest: Raisu Palace. You've got this ticking time-bomb in your face, Emptyhead Kiss-You - I mean Emperor Kisu. It still amazes me how after a buttload of hard missions (Vizunah, Arborstone etc) and you still get the class-confused idiots in Raisu: 1)the "were timed aggro aggro rush rush kill mob frenzy leeeeeeeeroy gogogogo" Wammo, 2)the "My Curses is 12, Hammer warrior with SS LFG" guy, 3)the "heal my pet if u dont i leave" Ranger, 4)the "Pay Me 10k or I'm Out" monk, 5)the glyph-of-sacrifice Fireball flarespamming elementalist, 6)the mesmer who thinks he's an assassin "Me/A LFG! I have Twisting Fangs and Temple Strike!", 7)the MM with level 16 minions, 8)the SS with 9 in Curses, 9)the assassin whose aggro management is no better than the Wammo mentioned above and AoDs precisely into the fattest, juiciest, boss-heaviest mobs, 10)and the ritualist who uses firestorm. All of these I have met while I was dragging my poor ranger through the mission. Not to mention the ele boss who whacks off solid 200+ with his spells.. on a Ranger. Can't hench the mission, it's laggy too. I'm never doing this mission again.

kaheiyeh · Dec 03, 2006, 06:17 AM // 06:17

Favourite: Consulate Docks. I like that warlike feel with all the tactics and such. How you must capture the forward wall and flank enemies etc.

Least Favourite: Ruins of Surmia. God I hate this mission. Whenever i've created a new prophecies character, I find it to be the most boring 30 minutes of my life doing this mission.

Easiest: Chahbek Village. This is the most simple mission I have ever encountered. Tihark Orchard comes close behind.

Hardest: Gate of Madness. Tried this 5 times with PUGs on the first time i got there and failed miserably each time. Tried it 4 times with henchmen and died all 4 times from Shiro's Impossible Odds. Still havn't passed it yet ...

erfweiss · Dec 03, 2006, 06:42 AM // 06:42

Favorite: People will think I'm nuts...Gate of Madness. Reasoning is because it's the first mission in long time that makes you think.

Least Favorite: Naphui Quarter. Lets go left, lets go right. Lets not do this mission

Easiest: Great Northern Wall. It's meant for early characters. It better be easy. Also, ever bring a lvl 20 minion master to beat up the Charr? That's fun.

Hardest: Jennurs Horde. Getting someone other than myself to actually pick up the Light is amazing...especially when final boss needs 3 drops. I had a ritualist, not a sprinter.

Feurin Longcastle · Dec 03, 2006, 06:48 AM // 06:48

Favourite: Aurora Glade. The first GW environment that required capping of some sort, this was great fun splitting up in order to stop the Mantle. A shame the bonus was so easy.

Least Favourite: Tannaki Temple. I needed to do this mission numerous times for the elite skills -- I hated doing it after the first time.

Hardest: Abbadon's Mouth. Hard when I first did it with Prophecies only skills, even harder when I returned mid-Factions to get the elite skill caps with only henchies. The frustration of how craptacular they were was aggravating.

Incidentally, can the people claiming that there were no hard missions drop the pompous pretentiousnous? You weren't pro the day you started playing the game, some mission would have had to be hard for you at some point. Drop the elitism.

Easiest: Tihark Orchard. I wish there were more solo missions!
