Easy Balth Farm Theory

This is a theory, that may have a hole in it. I myself havent tried it but this makes sense:

1.) The Zaishen Combat quest is random arenas sometimes.
2.) The basic reward is 15 bronze coins, 500 gold, 3k faction.
3.) I know you can redo this quest.

This is where my hole comes in. I don't know if you can redo this quest more then once, but if you can, repeatedly winning 3 battles in random arenas isnt very hard if you are a good PvP player. 3k balth everytime and 500g sounds like a steal to me.

Would this work?
Thanks

Yes, it would, every time the quest comes up... :P So you can do it max the times of charrs you got, every day the quest is there... So, that's once every 2 weeks or so, but not the entire time, can only do the quest once..
Oh, btw, don't think this is trader outpost material^^, just saying..

Ignore all of this.

Yes you can get the quest as many times as you can fit into that day. I myself have done todays RA zquest on my ele 3 times today.

Yes this is a decent way to farm balth faction.

Yes people do this all the time theres nothing new about it. It's very popular with some of the other zcombats (HA and GvG) as they give more faction per turn in.

He was right in saying it dosen't belong in the traders outpost.

the mission and bounty were. They made the combat repeatable since all you had to do was just keep remaking PvP chars

Do you have to rezone after you've accepted the reward? Because I tried this recently and the sign wouldn't give me anything, but I didn't try rezoning.

Yes, after turning in the reward, you will have to rezone before you can take the pvp zq again

Not only does this work with RA but all the PVP bounties, HA GvG are also good for the Balth. AB-JQ-FA for faction title.

Any experienced HA or GvG guild can kick the tar out of the RA bounty in 1/2 the time.
9k Balth rinse-repeat.
