I dont' remember if I suggested this yet or not, been meaning to for a while but never got a round to it. I also do not remember anyone else mentioning it, and seaches have revealed nothing.

I'm also, somewhat surprised they just haven't done this on thier own yet.

My suggestion is as stated in the title... some sort of NPC that can be added in PvP areas such as the Temple of Balthazar and Heroes Ascent, maybe even in the Guild Hall.

This NPC will let you cash in your hard earned Balthazar Faction for Flames of Balthazar.

I, like many people I know, get everything in game unlocked within a short time of it being added to the game leaving us with a capped amount of Balthazar Faction and nothing to spend it on.

THey did however change it so although you have limited amount to spend you can still earn and add to your Total Faction earned, but it would be nice to have somethign to spend it on.

Even if it costs 2,000 Faction for 1 Flame of Balthazar, users can still stock up use them when needed, give them to teammates if they need a quick 1,000 Balthazar Faction, and so on.

Faction for Flames of Balthazar is useless for yourself. The cost has to be below 1,000 faction for it be worth trading for, but if it is, then it'd be abused by constantly trading for them, then using them, then repeat to UAX.

On the other hand, you can help others gain faction, which would be pointless, as it's supposed to be about YOU gaining faction with Balthazar, and not someone else helping you get there.

it allows them to sell the faction points they earned since people with UAX fill up their bar almost immediately and can't do anything with it.

though now we have the tournament tokens so we have uses for our faction points after UAX. before we had this, i was for exchanging balth points into flames of balthazar but with something to use balth points now i don't see any need for the exchange for flames of balthazar.

This has been suggested millions of times already. Seriously, go search before making another one of these stupid threads. No need for it now that we can blow faction on those shiny tokens that waste massive amounts of inventory space

Do a search, I found nothing. As I said in my first post. Don't bitch about someone not using the search feature when you haven't tested to see if it exists yourself.

Agreed, but it gives others the ability to still earn and stock up on faction for when new content is added. I can think of many people who would use this. Yes, they would be sold, but they are being sold now as well, so whats the difference. The only difference is there would be alot more in circulation. Those who want to stock up can do so, and those who dont' want them can sell/give them away.

As for how much they would cost, Anet could make ti cost 5,000 or even 10,000 faction for one Flame of Balthazar for all I care. The idea is to let people cash them in and stock up if they want, and if they dont' care or want them, sell them. Just as many do with the Halls chest ones.
