Its true you can mix american and euro players in the party and get the game to "think" your in the territory of the majority of your party (assuming it still works, someone grab 2 euro friends when euro has favor and go there).

But I wonder how this could work with 2 man groups (which is seriously mostly all that ever goes to the UW nowadays). would they take the territory of the party leader?

Ok, back to the 50g and 100g issue, the 50g is for a 2% morale boost (I believe) and the 100g is for a +3 health regen "blessing". Hope it helps

hmmm, just a thought but Look at the statues themselfs. Grenth is the god of death so he is in the mountains(cold and unforgiving) Melandru is the god of Earth so she is in Kryta. USing that logic, wouldn't it make more sense for there to be a statue of Balthazar in the Fire Islands?

Sweet. The fact that Balthazar's statue in Majesty's Rest does not provide entrance to the FoW has been mentioned twice on the first page. Apparently, it must be mentioned in every page in order to combat the misinformation.

Just for good measure:

Balthazar's statue in Majesty's Rest does not provide entrance to the FoW.

it works exactly like the statue in ToA. exactly.

and about the X ammount fo people being form the region who has favor, has nothing to do with the ammount of party members.

or, in a way it has, but only indirectly, the explorable areas(anything that is not a town or outpost) are also sharded, so you will play on the shard that fits the majority of the party best, so thats where the 50% come into play. i believe in case of a 50/50 party it will allways select America, atleast it did in the PvP tournament, the euro teams were getting a lot of lag, whereas the American ones barely noticed any. and they were allways playing 8v8

Well the real question is: If I take henchies from the Warcamp (i.e. Mhenlo, Devona, etc), and fight to the statue. Will the henchies be able to enter the UW? I believe the reason they can't at ToA is because they aren't ascended. But Mhenlo, Aiden, Devona and the rest I think are. I could be wrong, which is why I'm asking.

No, not exactly to be exact

One difference is that you can get a morale boost from the statue in Lornar's Pass before going into UW. You cannot enter UW with a morale boost via ToA.

Somebody tried this. They are not allowed there either. And since you can't kick them in there, you have no chance of entering via L'P if you have henchies with you.

[OFFTOPIC EDIT:] Since they seem not be ascended even when they are in the Ring of Fire... HOW the HELL did they get to the Dragon's Lair? They did not search for the single speck of sand that is Glint's lair all over the desert while we were busy doing the ascension missions now, did they?

Same as the Balthazar statue in the Falls, its does not give access to FoW.

I think the logic here is that the Grenth in the shiverpeaks is because people in that are are supposed to be infused and ascended (although the req to be ascended to enter FoW and UW was added after in an update)

I think once they add the other God realms (Lyssa, Dwayna, Melandru), the Lyssa statue in Mineral springs would give access to the Lyssa realm.
