Simple question. How much balth faction do you get per hour (or day) if you play normally? How many total faction have you gained so far?

How much would you be able to get if you went all the way and did everything to maximize faction gain?

Depends, a regular Ha run takes about 40-50 min and will give anywhere between 5-10k balth faction, at the double weekends it's easy to get 20k+ balth faction in less than 1.5 hours.

For gvg, the avarage amount of faction you get for winning in a top 100 guild (might be wrong) is about 2k balth faction, and another .2k (??) for a flawless victory. The duration of those matches varies alot, sometimes you whipe a team within 2 min, and sometimes matches take till VoD. so u basicaly get 2-2.2k faction every 2-24 min (not counting the waiting time to "search for a whorthy opponent").


Btw, im at 4,730,194 Balthazar Faction.

Like most here, about 10k/day.

Had a wierd thing in GvG last night though, GW faced us up against the same guild twice (not in succession). Both times the other team didn't load, and we got flawlesses from it.

However there was nothing on guild status, although it was on observer. Twas damn wierd.

PS (getting better at this game guild xD)

Balth Faction overall: 2.557.000

Faction per Day gaming; rough estimate: 10-15K
Thats mainly HA and a tidbit of RA waiting for more guildies to come online.

how fast i get it really depends on too much for it to be relevent.
but just for reference, a 5 win streak in RA gets u just under 1k in 5-10mins
and a full run of the Zelite takes approx 15-20 min for 6k balth

What's so special about them? Are they pro Zaishen elite farmers? If so I want to know their secrets!

I get about 5k a day I guess? On days I actually play, I get around 20k? I think I got a combined ~200k last double champ weekend.

I don't know my total, and I'm too lazy to sign on and check. Probably around 7-9million.

I do not get any Balthazar Faction, as I hardly PvP and hardly log in anymore.

But I get TRP from the Xunlai Tournament House, around 300-400 per month with 2 accounts.

I have almost 1.3m faction.

According to math that's an average of about 1750 a day over the 2 years I've actively played GW (1 on, 1 off, 1 on since launch).

Here's the breakdown, though:

Some days I play AB with friends -> ~10k+
Some days I play RA -> 5k - 10k
When possible I play event weekend PvP mini-games -> 10k-20k
When possible I abuse double RA/AB faction weekends -> 2-4x above (from more playing)
Some days I PvE -> 0
Some days I don't play -> 0

I'm not a real PVP player so i don't actually get many faction points a day. The only times i play dedicated PVP is during double faction/double fame/... events.
From time to time i play Elite zaishen, not everyday though. Depends on what i'm willing to do atm.

I play 3 years now with a total of 1 560 000 balth points. Roughly 500k a year.
Roughly 1.5K a day

That are 791 keys. Lets assume someone can make 1000 keys a year with actually playing the game. He would then need 20 years to max the title.

Or they could get keys from other accounts. At 6k bot farmable faction a day, it will take 16,667 days for a single bot. A modest army of 100 bots can do it in less than 200 days. Surely the really efficient bot farming companies can have a field day with this.

Im just below 1mill balth, playing for 2 yrs... but im mainly pve, and most of my balth came from AB & RA.

If I want balth, i can get about 4-5k an hr in RA whilst browsing the net etc.

I get 4-5 keys a day when I'm really into it so I guess thats 20k-25k, but, like I don't do that everyday even pvp gets boring after you've stomped so many rangers and assassins day in an day out. I also optimize my gains by switching sides when one side is winning more than the other or the map highly favors that side. I love the Kurzicks last map it's almost impossible to lose that one.

I have around 600k.
You can get 3k a day from the z-challenge pretty easily. 5k or so every 45 miniutes or so (give or take) in RA.
