I respectfully disagree:

1. Urzog's Warren, with a compentent group will net you in excess of 12K faction in about an hour.

2. Vanquishing Ferndale, I netted over 18K faction in 57 minutes!

Yeah, they nerfed HFFF runs. So What? They did it NOT to make getting the titles harder, but to put a crimp in the gold farming bots.

That is what I have said to every thread started about nerfing anything.

While I have raised cane about this change I do like it, I will miss the HFFF because I will no longer have a simple activity I can do for a few minutes a day when I have some time to kill. Unlike spending half and hour to an hour doing missions.

For me this is a plus because I have only taken a few of my characters through Factions and only one all the way through. This will give me a reason to take all of them through now. More of a reward than just a single green item for completing the chapters is a motivator for me to do so now. Not that into greens I like to craft my own weapons to suit my needs. The major improvement to aiding me with Faction, SS and LB titles is a huge plus. Also give me an incentive to vanquish this stuff in hard mode.

Getting Luxon and Kurzick titles after the update became a lot harder.

But it also became a lot less repetitive and stupid.

Considering how the current ways of obtaining the most faction might rely on you actually doing something that tests your skill, those who aren't as good at the game will take longer to complete the title than others, which is probably how it should have been rather than who can button mash and flag the quickest and timeliest.

NOTHING has changed with the update.

With HFFF you needed 400 hours planting flags.

Now, according to the math someone posted, you need 375 hours doing 83 times each Factions mission.
You can also vanquish, but the amount of time is roughly the same.

In conclusion, if you aim at max rank (which maybe you want for your gwamm character), you have to repeat the whole campaign 83 times (LOL) or vanquish the most profitable area hundreds and hundreds of times.

A.net spend a lot of time and work for this update, but they failed to address the real issue of those titles.

(Just to avoid flames, I already have r12 Kurzick, obtained wasting 400 hours in HFFF. Ah, and Gwamm too ... )

i think it's great, it's an opporunity to bring new chars through the mission, or help others (guildies etc) on existing chars and getting rewarded. Plus with the vanquishing bonuses, it's much more varied. do some books, vanq, ab. get a new character through cantha.

personally i'm trying to decide where to vanq this weekend, vabbi or the forest lol! and i usually go "meh" at vanq weekends

No you dont have to. Way to miss the point of the whole thing.

The point of the update is options. You now have many ways to gain faction which makes the process a hell of a lot less tedious. Yes some are more profitable but at least now you can go off and do something else and still being adding to your faction.

I did the hfff runs. But let me tell you, I hated it. For this reason I only got to r5. I would rather nail my p.... to a tree. Or stab my eyes out with a fork than do that hfff run that much to max the title. So I am glad they gave us way more options maxing this title now. I will vanquish again. On another character now. I was gonna do that. But now I have a reason to do it. This is much better than the hfff. Thank you Linsey. The new options are, in the words of the immortal Tony the Tiger, "They're G-r-r-r-eat"!

Yeah, hiring a runner to fill up books requires SO much skill...

Well, assuming anyone actually is running books, at the very least it would require LOTS of money, which would exclude the vast majority of the gw community from doing it this way.

*cough* 10k faction each time you slaughter through urgoz *cough*

Good teams are doing this now in 20mins or under. That comes to alot faster than the old Kurz HFFF.

Would you care to post a pic or link to Urgoz clear done below 20 min or slightly above?

I know Deep can be done 17 min but Urgoz no way in my opinion.

Nooo! It's impossible because they removed all possible ways to get or donate faction!

Wait.... no they didn't, they made more ways to get faction and raised the cap. So I'm confused, what's all the complaining about? Oh yea, no more free money and survivor titles.
