Faction bounties would really liven up echovald/jade sea, the shrines are already manned by priests - A simple bounty that gives faction

Echovald
between 6-10 faction a kill
Wardens 8
Dredge 8
Plants 6
Kirin 6
Oni 10
Luxon 10

Urgoz (upon entry)
All creaures 10

Jade Sea
Between 8-10 faction
Plants - 8
Outcasts - 8
Oni - 10
"fish" (how are these things classed") - 8

The Deep (upon entry)
All creatures 12

--------
the luxons get better bounties simply beacuse they lack a decent FFF. Asimple idea that just gives the average player a bit of faction while wandering these lands

I like it but I dont think they would do it. Would also make the "Befrending The...." quests much much much easier and that is likely something they dont want.

like the bounties in Elona? Probobly wont be done given ANETs treatment to older games.

You can still do all the quests and stuff from both factions, some of them are Luxon/Kusrik only though.

I think this is a good idea none the less.

I think it is a good idea. Maybe the bounty should be unavailable to people who haven't completed the "Befriending the X" quest and once they have it's open. The only thing though, is that this might make people stop doing alliance battles, and the Kurzicks are already complaining about there not being enough Luxon teams.

I would be for it, but not at those numbers - it would have to be much more to pique my interest.

To TedTheDead: I was farming around 1K of Lightbringer a day before hard mode using the Domain of Secrets area (about 1-2 hours of work, depending on how well it went), which is a good average for a moderate gamer. That's almost two months of work. I bring this up simply for comparison.

If I can kill one creature for 10 Luxon faction, and am able to kill 300 creatures an hour, that's 3K of faction. I'd say that's not quite as good as can be done with good streaks in AB. And certainly a drop in the bucket on your way to 10 million.

In my opinion, this is a quasi-PvP title. They made it maxable, the way PvE titles are, but it's so high as to be out of reach for most gamers, with completion probably around with GW2 comes out.

very good idea

HawkofStorms · May 09, 2007, 10:45 PM // 22:45

Oh baby, I would love this. As if Arborstone wasn't overfarmed enough as is. I don't see it happening and it might cheapen some of the titles (which is really an AB PvP title atm), but still it'd be hard to get.

Maybe for hard mode

have often thought of a similar idea myself, would give another dimension on attaining that 10 million faction to max the title. I like the idea of being linked with hard mode and/or post 'Befriending' quest.

A great idea, but will it be given life? Guess we can only hope.

Good idea, would be nice to get something, it would make hard mode more appealing to if there was increased bounties
