This is this weekend.
Hopefully it really means when i donate 5k this weekend I'll get 15k towards alliance title. If this is the case then to get first tier you need to donate 35k ('cause u can only donate 5k each time).
I did Fort Aspenwood yesterday Luxon side, it was kinda fun winning, but when losing the faction points you get sucks (not to mention the "occasional" AFK-ers and leavers). It took me almost 3.5 hours to get 6k. That's bad IMO.
That means I need to look into ways to farm factions faster. ATM I'm not thinking of maximizing the title I just want to have all available skills for my characters. This weekend won't change that, it's not fun to see all those afk-ers and people leaving 'cause they think their side is losing. Honestly it seems like leaving when your team is losing is being "promoted" due to the current faction reward you get when losing.
I haven't left a team yet, but I wonder whether the other team found it fun(ny) when only three of us were left at 50% vengeance... Well the Kurzicks didn't flame us, we lost but we were there till the end. We killed a bunch of them, and we got 80 factions at end (that means 2 gates busted). It just doesn't seem to be worth it to stay when more than half of your team is gone.
TBH I think I could have left if I didn't need the factions (I needed 10k for the befriending luxon for my monk and I was at 9.960k when we started I maxed it by us killing Kurzicks before the battle ended). Since not all of us left I decided to stay as well. Honestly I was hoping they'd kill all of our NPC's befor 100% vengeance.
To Anet Plz change the rewards for the losing teams in Aspenwood to make it worth while playing even though there is hig chance of losing, or make a statement that it is fine to leave when your side is losing.........
PS I am not luxon player per se, I just needed the faction points. I think just before GWEN I'll be running ambers for Kurzick for my Necro and asassin.
