Firstly i am after Kurzick faction and so far i have worked out like most people that i can get around 20/25k~ an hour doing steady vanquishes or ~6K an hour afk in Amatz Basin !!

But what other ways do you guys earn your faction? I have no guild any more because i was not active for a period of time so i will probably be going it alone with just hench & heroes

I just basically could do with a few other ideas, something that i can swap between doing on and off so that it makes it a bit more interesting...

You can try doing FA or JQ for Kurzick faction + balth faction.

Besides that, I'd say just find another guild and do that. It's quicker and easier. Or you can just keep vanquishing and work on your title while you're at it.

Yeah, vanquishing is the most efficient way. You can do it with h/h but gets bloody boring. FA and JQ could be a nice way to change things up, but its slow faction. Definitely want a DTSC guild to get the title in a quick amount of time

I'd say Drazach Thicket Speed Clear amounts to 16-17k /10-15mins

So far DTSC, 15min is a good time for that 16k faction. Assuming that 600/smite team gets the nerf-bat I would probably say the best thing is vanqing some place like morostav.

Don't forget Urgoz's Warren. If you can find people to do it with you that is =/

Yeah i heard those speed clears are the best way

I'll have to look into getting a guild for that by the looks of it and urgoz is pretty much out of the question right now for me

like you said it's a case of finding people to do it.

Anyhow good new is i have a like minded partner for vanquishes, so that takes the edge off a little bit

DTSC can get you up to 170k/hour on your title. Go with that if you're serious about getting a high rank.

It's true that the Drazach Thicket speed clear will get you the most faction per time unit, however, I personally find SCs to be unutterably boring. I've gotten to r11 Kurz and am within a couple million faction of maxing out by doing only AB and JQ, no SCs or vanqs at all. I've quit AB and gone solely to JQ now since they raised the faction there. You get 3500 per win, which usually takes less than 10 minutes, and, most importantly, to me anyway, it's FUN! A side benefit is that you also get Balth faction. I've accumulated a stack of zkeys just from AB & JQ.

DTSC teams are more like 12 min runs Kurzick SOF has been know to hit 9 mins on many occasions, if your looking to join a kurzick guild then let me know, I am atm in luxon SOF but can sort out an invite to kurzick if your serious about maxing the kurzick before the "so called 600/smite nerf".

What is the best area to VQ with ONLY H/H for the most faction in the shortest time?

Edit: Right now, I do Drazach Thicket. It takes about 35 minutes with H/H and I get about 17k in faction.

I know of a few people including myself who vanquish Ferndale in spare time but i don't know what the times are any more

Too busy to notice although that being said, i think Drazach Thicket is probably the better one out of the two.

Urgoz giving kurzick faction to ...i don`t remember how much but is good to if you want some drops ( chance for zodiacs from End chest) but the best way is DTSC, everyone saying that.( Best chance to find a team is Europe- french dist or german ). good luck
