Now that factions is "over"...

Will Anet please remove the locked gates?

Unlike power games there are still a few PvE characters that I have yet to play through, and it is getting increasingly hard to get them through in the absence of player characters nowadays.

Case in point: Vizunnah square. Two teams of henchmen are not going to cut it one way or another!

It's quite the opposite for me. Henching Vizunah is the only way for me to complete it. If there's a human party on the other side, it's pretty much certain that they mess it up at some point. Then I just keep trying until I finally get a hench team and get to finish the mission.

They're not going to make the older campaigns easier just cause there's a new one out.

whenever i had to do that mission, i went to internation districts, 99.99% of the times i got henchies at both sides, but i did got some other loner trying to do it the same way i did, and as i had a few guildies with me,well, his henchies ran away from him...

The henchies running to the other party and leaving Togo/Mhenlo on their own was fixed with the upgraded hench control. About time too.

I would say it's less about making it easier and more about "opening" it up so there's a reason to go back there. As is, my Dervish and Paragon will never step foot on Cantha because of the locked gates. There's no reason to go there. I would go for fun and exporing and time killing, but when I step off the ship, I'm traped like a rat in a cage there. No thanks.

I agree, Anet needs to bend here and remove the crap locked gates for good.

If you don't want to play through Factions, don't play through Factions.

I see no reason why people should be run through and skip the whole game now when they couldn't before.

Just cuz there's a new guild wars game doesn't mean no one plays factions. I play it all the time. and they should keeep it the way it is. Sometimes I go back and try for the master's reward. I use henchies in Vizunnah Square too.

Keep it the same.

i had to use hench in vizunah too on both teams, factions mission towns are dying if theres nothing to farm there and even then try getting a team.

luckily my minions got me masters
