Just a quick question about the activity of Cantha: How's the population of willing people sitting around Vizunah Foreign? I never planned to put my Ranger through the boredom of that game, but after getting a Green Bow in Elona I feel the need to cap Broad Head arrow.

From what I've seen (I live in Australia and only get on when Europe just wakes up or is about to sleep), theres a sufficent amount of players to get through the mission. Besides, If you've been to Elona, hench it with an MM hero. It's much easier if you know what you're doing and there's no noobs running around to disrupt you. Also, if you're in foreign, cap it like I did. A boss will be killed by the local team before you reach Master Togo and it might just be the ranger boss that spawned. Easy cap. Also allows you to quickly map back and grab another skill (or siggy, for your secondary) before you waste too much time.

The activity is close to zero.

This is the very reason why ANet added heroes to the game.

Actually, I'd say the activity is so low because Arenanet released heroes.

Cantha is still pretty well populated from my perspective, at least in the later missions. (I'm playing through the campaign now.) For some missions, it's really difficult to find a group and for others, it's really easy.

I did a lot of the missions a couple of weeks before Nightfall was released and the population was already very low. I'd say most of the players aren't in Factions anymore, not because of Heroes, but just because they're now playing through NF storyline instead.

I'm so glad I have Heroes because henching most of the missions just isn't viable and the groups that were there before the update had no monks and too many assassins anyway.
