Default Faction abuse in arena

Since faction increase and pvp x i have been abusing faction but its very hard to do.

lets look at faction rewards. 20 per kill (20 points on 1st kill of that character) and 25 for win + 25 if flawless.

60 if you kill all opponents at least once
25
85 faction per battle

this is from a standard dual match but what if you get partied with dumb people or just don't fit in group from the competition arena. you probly die w/o even getting one kill.

why not each party kill each person 1v1 then res and switch out. then battle it out at the end. then you at least 60 faction each battle no matter what. here's the hard part, conviencing the other team to follow along and keeping you mates from being froggy.

with this you can get anything you need from faction fairly quickly. not to mention some GvG with 2 friendly guilds that let each other kill all the henchies and each other and just let the battle last while you all get faction fast.

if btw if you want to do any unrated GvG battles to abuse the faction just msg me

Oh gawd...You are not serious? You can get ~4000 faction in 3 hours on tombs/gvg/team arenas. Just practise playing and don't abuse things like that. :/

GvG is just my point. 2 friendly guilds in unrated farming faction from each other's hechies then going at it.

Cant you pick your enemy?
i thought there was 2 systems...
random and the one where u decide who to fight...

I already have thougt of this idea; but it was for Fame; but GvG doesnt give you fame ; they should really take the word "guild" out of the Fame's popup help window. suposeivly your "fame" goes up when you have guild high on the ladder...

How does this happen? if you join up with a guild... with lets say the #1 spot you gain lots of fame cuz your apart of that guild?

Do you lose this once you leave a guild? Grr they need to fix desriptions about Fame...

GvG only gives faction if it is a random rated.

Random Rated GvG is the only form of GvG that awards faction. Joining a high ranked guild doesn't give fame, but most members of the high ranked guilds HAVE alot of fame since they're good at the game and can win in tombs, hence the reason the guild is high on the ladder.

I think running all or nothing builds designed to either win or lose in 1min or less in the 4v4 team arena's is the most effective way to farm faction if you cant win in tombs or GvG consistantly.

Also, wouldn't it be 20+20+20+20+25=105 faction for each victory in arena's? 130 for flawless?

I find the people abusing the faction are the people using the macros inside the random arena. You see quite afew of them these days, just sitting at the start hoping their team gets some kills or wins with only 3 active players. They'll die, go back to the beach, macro hits enter and off they go again.

Getting faction in GVG is actually much faster than tombs. getting 1k faction per win plus about 500 faction from all npcs and killing the players...
