Firstly,i was wondering how do i earn faction points.(press h and then click faction)The only way i know so far is by winning in the arena.
Secondly,Prince rurik's sword is a specific one or is it an ordinary sword with an improvent??
Prince Rurik's sword is a Fiery Dragon Sword, but the bonuses and damage or even roughly how powerful it is is never revealed to the players.
Balthazar faction comes from any kind of PvP, whether it be in random arenas, team arenas, shiverpeak or ascalon arena, the one when you leave pre-searing, Heroes ascent on any map, GvG, I think 12v12 (alliance battles), 8v8, the training course from the quests from the guy in aisle of the nameless, zaishen battles, zaishen elite battles.... thats all I can think of at the moment.
I know not of what you speak, when you refer to bonuses or damage, but I assure you that Felekazan, for that is my blade's name, burns as hot as an elementalist's inferno, and its balance is unmatched, effortlessly gliding to deflect the hammers of the Grawl that plague our land.
For those students of language, you may recognise the blade's origins in its name - it hearkens back to a covenant between the dwarves of the Shiverpeaks and the men of Ascalon, and means shadow-hewer - a fine name for such a blade. It has been passed down through the royal line for centuries, and is of the finest workmanship - truly a unique weapon.
