Many people are wondering what Jade Quarry is and never get to see or even map the area. Why not hold an event to boost Faction Points to pull in future players of Jade Quarry? People are hooked on playing Fort Aspenwood andnot knowing that Jade's Quarry gives a maximum of 950(+50 for each Mine taken at the end) and is much quicker to play and to end. The Servers are just rotting with people no clue its there

IMO, not event, permanently :P

Maybe 1.5x Balth and Alliance faction there permanently. Also for Fort Aspenwood, imo.

Factions really needs some love

Yeah, been there, done that, got the t-shirt

All faction rewards need to be boosted. You can FFF and earn 10k in like an hour. You should be able to do the same with PvE missions, Co-ops, and AB.
Then I may actually AB, and other people may actually particpate in missions again.

One weekend of a point boost is not enough! Open up Fort Aspenwood and Jade Quarry again. ._.

EDIT: And to try it of course....pvp is more important than exploring!

Jade Quarry needs a huge faction boost, even if only temporary. Doubling the faction gain there for a few weeks and then cutting it down by a few hundred afterwards might be able to attract a community stable enough to make Jade Quarry an easy place to find a party at.

They should some how combined Aspenwood and JQ. Add 2 forts to aspenwood and add the quarry/amber mines outside. Let the juggernauts and turtles run amber/jade.

BlackSephir · Jul 10, 2008, 03:35 PM // 15:35

JQ and FA need general improvements to get players' attention, not just silly 2x faction weekend.

N1ghtstalker · Jul 10, 2008, 03:59 PM // 15:59

make it active again
want faction in other way then to AB or HFFF

Add some limited time PvP quests that involve FA closing due to the Vengeance of the Gods wtfpwning the Luxon base, the Luxons needing to collect massive amounts of Jade to rebuild it, Kurzicks have to stop them and collect jade for their own purposes, quest requires players to play 3 games of JQ. Also, since we have /report, increase the losing and winning faction and increase the balth and kurz/lux faction for kills during FA and JQ.

Kanyatta · Jul 10, 2008, 05:23 PM // 17:23

Maybe they should have FA and JQ affect the Kurzick/Luxon territory lines? That could spur a little interest from the people hard core into the whole Luxon vs. Kurzick thing.

Unless you have a guild/alliance team, trying to map there is an exercise in futilty.

Also, there was a topic somewhere in the Faction Explorers' League that showed someone who had 100% without JQ mapped.

Skye Marin · Jul 10, 2008, 07:58 PM // 19:58

Triple Faction there, Double it in the Fort, and make it permanent after the weekend.

Jade Quarry needs definitely more love.

How about turning it into something like Team Arena with 8 players?
Let Fort Aspenwood work as usual, but open Jade Quarry for a more organized PvP format (with the obvious PvE influence).

Suggestion B:

Redistribute Reward Points in a different way.

Count the amount of games played in both Missions, the mission with less games played gives participants a faction bonus if they win.

An event would eventually populate JQ, but just for time the event runs. It will be deserted afterwards and I fear it will be abused by cartographers anyway, so normal play should not always be possible (unless you enjoy ganking them :P)
