So what's the best vanquishing place to farm for luxon and kurzick points?

wind fire and ice · Nov 14, 2008, 04:59 PM // 16:59

luxon:silent surf id say-its a hard vanq but if you know the right route it takes around 30mins and has quite afew foes be carful to watch for boss patrols,theres quite afew random groups going around,two have bosses-if you run into them in the midle of fighting somthing else you may wipe,also is smart to keep track of where there going as you see them so you can catch up to them and kill them easily so you dont spend five hours looking around the zone to find them.

kurzick..really theres loads of easy and large zones,id say go with morstav trail because it has an okay ammount of foes and is a prety strait shot once you get used to it,Ferndale is also a nice option for a strait and easy vanquish with enough foes to be worth the time.

For the Kurzick side, Ferndale is probably the easiest. Arborstone is an annoying maze, but lots of relatively easy foes, as long as you don't over aggro in the first area. The rest are a bit more challenging.

On the Luxon side, Maishang Hills isn't too tough, Gyala Hatchery has a decent enemy count, and doesn't take too long to get through.

The more bosses the better.

I would think eternal grove for kurzick would be best, there is several bosses all in a close range of each other.

what kind of team are you running for the silent surf? 30min is a pretty good time, would like to try it out myself

I agree. Good size zone with lots of bosses and mobs.

Mr.Kotte · Nov 16, 2008, 03:42 PM // 15:42

Did Morostav Trail in 34 min, got 27k faction from the vanquish bonus and about 8k from the blessing. You could probably shave off a few minutes if you use cons though.

Kabbu · Nov 16, 2008, 04:46 PM // 16:46

how did you manage 35k factions?
8k from blessing is ok there i get the same amount but 50*~300 is 15k or do also factions double with this weekend? because there is no information about that

MoreArrows · Nov 16, 2008, 08:26 PM // 20:26

What team builds did you use for morostov trail??

Its probably bugged. Cause I'm 100% sure I got 27,300 faction from vqing that area.

I myself play AP YMLaD together with Tri discord. Ele, necro, monk and monk as henchies.

Aldric · Nov 16, 2008, 11:06 PM // 23:06

Mt Qinkai is quite easy to do. I'm running it in 20mins and getting 17k faction

matsif · Nov 17, 2008, 12:49 AM // 00:49

my guild leader and I did morostav trail earlier in about 40 minutes or so, and I got over 35k faction from the run also. idk if its bugged but I didn't mind

cause of this update I've already gained 2 levels in the kurzick title cause of vanquishing, fort aspenwood, and the points given from quests and whatnot when the update released.

If that's true, then surely you could tweak this build to be able to do 3 runs/hr and donate. That 17 x 3 = 51. Donating gives double points = ~102k. Let's call it 100k for ease. That means it's possible to be getting ~100k+ faction/hr and just for this coming weekend it'll be ~200k/hr.

Mind sharing your team? I'm guessing this is being done with h/h, but if you make some sort of 2 man 6 hero build it can only make the time shorter, right?

If you got 17k from donating (as in 8,5k in your 20 min run) then this ruins this entire post and should be ignored... If not, maxing Luxon no longer seems quite as impossible

Just my contribution.

Wiki says that each run averages about 8.5k. I'm going to take a wild guess and say that he got 17k during the double weekend.

51k an hour isn't perfect but it's definitely a viable run (especially since it's a very easy zone).

OK so that's 50k+ per hour, which is still more than Kurzick HFFF ever was. That took ~40 mins for 10k faction (20k donated) so a maximum of around 30k/hour. Not sure why people are complaining at this, except that they can't use bots for factions now, in which case they should keep quiet...

50k after donating...
HFFF gave 400 pionts per run while a run took 1min, so 4k in 10min and 24k/hour.
After donating thats 48k/h.
But yes vanquishing is slightly faster and makes more fun/is not so boring, so no QQ for HFFF.

The Amats Basin Point Farm btw gives 30k/h so 60k after donating, but its dead boring and doesnt fit the topic anyway.

well your HFFF calculation isn't completely right. one run is 1 min yes but you forget the fact that you have to rezone and so on according to a statement on the page from the guild [cat], i think thats what they were called, their fastest run was 10k in 37min. so it would be ~16k/hour so donated round about 32k/hour thats very different
