Well I do know that you can run from Yohlon Haven to Gates of Desolation and pretty much every stop along the way, so there's something.

Other than that, I can't really say I've seen much in the way of running.

Hope it helps!

Sure you can get to several towns, but it's all really pointless in the end. All the main primary areas are locked off and you can't access them without completing the quests/missions in the right order. It's a smart system that won't even let you do the mission if you join a party too. GJ to Anet on this one. Nice to see them opening up map space for those who complained in Factions, but not letting them pursue the story without doing it in order!

its an easy run, we ran it 4 man , 2 D/M balth avatar runners 2 W/Mo D-forge style runners, D/Mo's each take a light, 1 W/Mo grabs a light, and last W/Mo runs backup to absorb dmg from ppl that pull, and to grab light if anyone dies.

Total time ~5mins

Can someone farm me 2500 SS points, its very boring and I hate to do this over and over again for 10 characters.

What I want to point out is that the missions or getting there doesnt take the most time from me. But by the time you can do the harder missions, you should already have some lvl 20 heroes and you yourself are lvl 20 as well. Thus no need for running it, since you should be able to do it yourself.

i got my warrior to elona so i can try out some boss farming.. didnt feel like doing quests and missions to explore more of the map.. i just set a runners build, grabed hench for bait (theres lots of mobs that make running harder) and ran myself to quite a few places..

Last night at dead hour from around 4am EST to 10am EST i did Gates of Madness rushes... got about 8 out of 9 completed... charging 5k each taking 3 people at a time... not everyone pay fully because runners get scammed more than the other way around... in my case anyway...

its around 15k x 8 = should have been 120k in 5hrs but for some reason i only earned 70k total .... i dont get it... maybe i got scammed more than i thought...

each run takes about 30mins to complete

Well i've been working on a theory that u can run from from yohlon haven up through the desolation (on worms) and head into the Vabbi area if it works that sounds like a 60-80k run. . .i've gotten guildies without the ability to ride the worms to basalt grotto

Bawlz, how can you get them to grotto if they can't ride wurms? To me it says so-and-so doesn't have the ability to ride the junundu or whatever.
