* Increased faction gain per kill in Amatz Basin to 5.

But it didnt happen. I just went to see and its still 1 point per save.
Just thought I should get this out there with the hopes of someone else not wasting their time bothering with it. Not that 5 points is all that much. But better then 1.
And on a personal note, yes, 25 points was a bit much, (and yes, i did take advantage of it while it lasted), but I think 10 would have been fair.

Anyway, just thought you all would like to know.

i agree, a measly 10 points on a 10million track is nothing. 1 is not enough. 25 is a bit extensive.

i do think that they should have thought this out better. by taking away hfff, they basically said that you had to regrind vanquishes over...and over...and over for 10 million points.

they have failed at making this title worthwhile to max. either lower the cap, or give increased faction rewards.

this is coming from a player that has 6mil in the title track, so take it for what its worth.

anet fails. again.

Cantha books anyone?

There with uber reading skills you will see that one says save and one says killing refugees are still one point but kills are five. Which means the perma tank and chargers wont be as efficient as they where.

per kill.... im sorry. guess i need to learn to read. back to school for me. lol
sorry for the confusion all.

Yea but still...

even with that... it takes time to kill and well organized team etc... in the long run average player will not max it in 3 years... and if he does it will be the only title hes got... so its not worth doing it... just like other silly stupidly designed titles...

almost all pvp titles... lucky/unlucky... wisdom...

i'm not complaining about my incompetence, i got koabd r6 a year ago... but i stopped playing the game...

titles influence your decisions now... on what and when to play... and for us who like the sense of accomplishment and closure... leaving title at 50% isn't an option and it doesn't provide any satisfaction... so desire to play the game goes away... and playing the game while getting some points that u will never max is just stupid... when i do something it has to have a purpose... playing RA for the pleasure of it... ok it held me for almost 3 months... then it got grindy... and more grindy... and then i just stopped ... maxing it isnt an option... its impossible and just playing isnt fun anymore... i would still play if i knew i could max it in lets say a month or two tops... and move on to the next part of the game... enjoy every aspect of gw and get a satisfaction u beaten it.. got the title, whatever... came to a closure... that way u could still have years ahead of u in maxing pvp/pve titles and having fun with it coz u know its possible...

and maybe if u did all that monumental work... u could then stop and just play for the sake of playing... like in the old days of prophecies... when it was fun... without all the fancy stuff we have now... without the dmg counters either, halls with air spike, trolls in drok, 100k sup abs ...

No thnx Vanqing is much faster.

Morostav is ~22k per vanq and takes anywhere from 35-1hour depending on team setup.

your looking at turn in to the title 40k every hour atm

HM Canthan books takes about ~5 hours to complete and you get 120,000 not doubled.

5*40k=200,000 to the title and that is with doing morostav in 1 hour but you can get it done in ~30 mins so if you do 80k per hour your get 400,000 to your title compared to wasted for a HM book for 120,000.

I havent looked deep into luxon yet but with a small look over Silent Surf looks like it has the largest number of bosses and seems doable in under an hour.
