I think that FoW's just been so associated with being tough in the past that a lot of people just fear going in at all, even though current meta teambuilds can easily blow NM mobs away.

Forget current meta builds, anything can /pawnface nm FoW, and HM is even easy enough with a good discord/sab/racway

well on the other side.. some of use would rather just pay for the service if it is provided. After all, if you have the gold you can get what you want. If you have tones of gold you can get what you want....NOW!!!

So if I was to collect my 1.2mil and spend what 10K 50K on a run what the heck do I care.. just get me there...

It depends upon what you consider a "run". In many cases, people mean that they will rush through an area using speed buffs just to get through to the next portal/outpost. In many cases though, people will simply mean that they fight/kill there way through, bringing you along as dead weight. Not really "running" in the speed sense.

For example,when I "run" guildies though CoF, I just do my usual 600/smite "farm" run and bring extra people with me.
So, the "runner" for FoW armor will simply kill the required mobs and do the required quests using less than 8 players and fill the rest of the 8 team slots with "dead weight" (you).

Don't see why people pay for that service unless they are noobs and just bought their ecto/gold from a website. When I gathered enough materials and such I joined the first pug i saw that looked promising. Old school bonder and healer, nukers, a para and of course a tank. Had my armor the first try.

That reminds me - if you are going to join a PUG to do FoW, make sure that the PUG is going to do Forgemaster and knows you want to get your armor.

Back when I got my FoW it happened to be the last day of the buffed SF and so I just rigged a commando bonder hero and had 6 people in the back as dead weight.

Rofl good times.
