Between Jennur's Horde and Nundu Bay, which one is more difficult? That is, which one is easier to complete, and which one has objectives easier to understand?

id say nundu bay is easier for completion and masters. Just defend for a while til no more mobs attack, and then go kill a few easy targets. Jennurs horde is a bit more tactical and when h/h'ing u need more hero flagging.

Don't know how anything in GW as objectivos hard to understand.

Imo, faster and easier is the Nundu Bay you just have to watch out for mobs who might kill Elder Jonah in the first part of the mission, everything else is pretty straight forward.
Jennur's Horde takes some timing to don't let any of the constantly spawning mobs get through you and kill everything all the way to the Horticultorist if you're going for masters. It can get a little tight. But it's also the more fun to me, so it's really up to you.

agree. You can make nundu two ways - defend the forth OR if you cant hold them dont talk to npc and just clear the map.Jenurs horde is Harder coz of patrols and usual pugs overaggro.

In the end - nundu is boring, jennurs horde is real fun with ppl XD

The objectives are basically the same for both missions: kill the Harbingers.

Nundu Bay is significantly easier than Jennur's Horde, though. Once you've finished defending Ronjok against the waves of attackers, it's fairly easy to go take out the Harbingers for the bonus and the mission. Also, Nundu Bay gives you a skill for dealing with the Harbingers, while Jennur's requires carrying bundles.

Either way, having one or more other players is easier than trying to H&H the missions, particularly for Jennur's. It also helps to have the highest LB rank you can manage.

If you want to try Jennur's, I have found that the complicated strategies on the wiki don't work as well as simply killing everything. Granted, the runner groups will be bigger, but having extra spirits along your trail also provides a backstop in case a runner group slips by you, giving you more time to get to them before they get to the Gardener. Take your time and alternate between stationary and runner groups, and don't get too far from the center area so you can see each runner group as it spawns.

Let me preface by stating I refer to Masters completion, for titles (duh?).

In NM they're both cake (In HM both cake too, sub-Masters).

In HM, Jennur's Horde is *WAY* harder.

The key is that with Jennur's, you can't be patient. You really need R5+ Lightbringer and bring the LB PvE skill(s) plus massive AOE. And even then, you have to be aware, every 2 minutes, where the 6-MOB pack that 125%-speed roams is...

Horde is harder. imo. Nuda is straight forward and simple im happy bringing pugs for a mission like that. Horde however keeps you on your feet and needs the teeniest amount of tactics to get it completed. Nuda is a simple matter of running in and killing the big bad dude and how bunched the foes are at the start when they are besieging the village makes AoE fun to use also not to mention the heroes.... I mean.... who wants Koss??

agree with all the above.
you can use a discord trio to finish both of them though, NM and HM.
and a high lb rank helps.
in Nundu bay you just call targets and watch them go boom.
in horde you have to run from one side to the other and then back and forth...

When by yourself - Nundu Bay 10x easier.

When with at least 2 competent teammates - Jennur's Horde 10x easier.
