my group is allied with the luxons now... i was toying with the idea of gaining faction points for kurzick and get the ritualist armor for kurzick. Is it possible to talk to the kurzick armorers and get them to craft me one?

I currently got zero factions for kurzick so i assume that ones i got some faction points they will talk to me?

BTW: Where is the renewable luxon quest? any maps on it would be nice.

As long as you have more Kurzick Faction than Luxon faction.

Meanwhile...I'll take any free amber.

80 Amber...I can't stomach it.

Will Amber fall from 4k a piece soon? Otherwise I guess I could wait...

It's at about 1.5k now

Well, sadly, I just checked, and prices are still at 3k. It's definately a start.

However, even at 1k apiece, it'll break my bank to buy all the Amber.

I guess I could pass on the Black Dye for the time being...

I did it with my Necro. Change to N/R with all the running skills.

Someone please post a map on the Kurzick's side?

Actually, the best route but 5 seconds slower is to nip in between the gap in the island just below the C in Cavalon, you get way less mobs and NPC support.

Can somebody please tell me how to get to Amatz Basin from Brauer Academy? I tried running there but keep hitting dead ends. Is there i mission i need to get to the next town or something? Thanks guys.

Rumor has it that the Duel method has been nerfed (quest cannot be repeared).

If so...yick. Go-Go Amatz Basin.

mtm · May 10, 2006, 02:13 AM // 02:13

The problem was that quest wasn't giving the reward, not that it couldn't be repeated. It's been fixed now.

NazTH_F · May 12, 2006, 01:42 AM // 01:42

I don't know about you guys but I have a very hard time solo the duelist quest, it's like I could kill the monk but then after that I couldn't touch a thing, and before I know it the whole party was dead... I'm a r/mo BM main, any suggestion?

Traps. Lots of them

Meanwhile, AFK Farming is now inefficient. it's only 300 Faction/12 Minutes now. And that's weak, even if it involves doing nothing.

Duel Farming is tedious, since it's near impossible to Hench.

Fortunally, I'm done with the Armor and can quit this stupid farming.

Only problem with mission towns is that the higher the all time best record, the lower amount of faction you will get. For my group, beating altrumm all time best score earns us each 8k faction in about 20 minutes. Beating daily best currently earns us about 3.6 to 3.7k faction. Only problem is it takes a LONNNNGGGGGGGGGGGG time to get a group together (as much as over an hour); and then people might leave after a round and the process of looking for people begins again. That's why I'm trying to play with PUGS and invite them in guild and show them the way to run altrumm. So that there would be more to play when needed.

Complete Eternal Grove-mission, head south from Vasburg Armory.

Here's a little bit of good news. You can buy Amber at the rare trader for 2k a piece the last time I checked. But it only comes up once in a while since everyone is buying them. 3k an Amber seems to be the standard for now. I've seen a few selling for 2.5k.

Raziel665 · May 17, 2006, 06:08 AM // 06:08

I refuse to buy Amber for any higher then 2k, so I guess for now I have to earn it myself.

It's pretty obvious which one looks more badass, IMO.

Although I could save myself some time and money and take 15k Imperial Arms + Chest and 15k Kurzick Leggings + Shoes. (I'm not too fond of the Kurzick chest anyways...)

Personally I wouldn't waste my time on Ritualist armor sets, they all look like f'ing retards anyway. Farm for something else.

Amatz Basin appears to have been nerfed now.

Huge groups of enemies now spawn after a few minutes, and its impossible to just sit in one area. Eventually the spawns spread far enough that you're fighting enemies from all 3 paths. The enemies also no longer act like normal Wardens. They now are harder to defeat.

I've done it two times today, my scores were so low I only got about 30 faction total.
