Vasburg Armory Question

I was wondering, is it possible to get to Vasburg Armory without doing The Eternal Grove? I've tried it a few times, and I always die on the Afflicted. I refuse to pug as most people are idiots, so it's hard for me.
Any way to get run there?

Not sure that you can get a run there. Mission can be done with H/H. Also minion masters help alot.

I know that.. It's just I really don't want to do the mission.
Although, I might be able to go through Kurzick Unwaking Waters if I'm lucky..

You have to do the mission.

There is no way to run to Vasburg down the Echovald Forest side.

If you complete the Luxon side, the Kurzick Unwaking Waters will also show as completed. You can then go from there to Vasburg Armory through Morostav Trail.

And if you cannot complete Eternal Grove H/H, how much worse could it be with a PuG.

Eternal Grove is much easier with another player then with H/H.

Since you have groups coming on both sides, it helps to have two players with their own set of H/H on both sides. 4 and 4. Find someone to run Discord with you and you'll easily complete that mission.

You need to have done Befriending the Kurzicks too (which the OP has since he's in Eternal Grove. Also, you have to leave from Harvest Temple and talk to an NPC outside the Kurzick Unwaking Waters town to gain entry to it. From there you can run/fight your way to the different cities after Eternal Grove.

It's all good guys, I managed to get there. (Doing the mission, tried a few new approaches first with h/h)
Thanks for the help!
brb, enjoying the best armour in the game <3
