This is one thing i ask myself, is there anyone in GW wo actually completed FoW for a 100%, Did Everyone Quest, killed every single Enemy, been in every corner!?!
I'll gues there are only a handfull of people who actually really did this, and ofcourse posts on a forum witch include a simple answer as "yes i did" doesent really convince me

!
I think like 90% of the people only go till the Forgemaster for their armor, and stop after obtaining the FoW Armor !

I do played alot in FoW, and gathered alot of information over it on multiple forums on the internet.
But there is not 1 post i ever seen were you can see someone having completed FoW for 100% !

And examples like : " The Eternal Weaponsmith , Ghost on the beach "
Everyone claims they dont give you quests or dont have a reason at all in the FoW!
I have a different feeling about all these things, there is no way Areanet just putted them im to look pretty

.

I am setting up a Group on saterday to get this 100% completion quest done, i will take screens, maby even some short movies ... and when done i will post a complete article about it with everything inside.

So i got 2 Questions :

1 - Is someone willing here to join and help me in the group, cause getting people randomly is just a neverending cyclus

2 - If someone has proof of this, post it ... please dont post simple answers like, i did it yesterday or something like that, cause that rubbish in my eyes !

Admin Edit: GWOnline.net does not like others taking their maps so I have replaced it with the Guild Wars Guru map. Feel free to distribute and link to it. Also, you had the link to the underworld map and I'm pretty sure you meant FoW but I just replaced the map you had.

Edit : Thx for the fix admin, wasent thinking when posting the picture link, but ermmm ... i think youre wrong cause i had the FoW picture up there, but now the UW picture is up here :S so

The eternal weaponsmith gives you the Forgemaster quest, it is Zurotai the Eternal that gives nothing.

FoW has been cleared before, don't have a screenshot of me finishing it available though... SMS has finished all but 5 or so quests with a 3-man team (not because of incapability, but because we haven't tried yet )

-Blade Wish granted.

The reason we haven't finished all quests is me (thats Nimruzir) and Forth are +8 GMT, meaning our timezone is hard to co-ordinate. We don't use any form of voice chat for the run, all co-ordination is from team channel or from knowledge of the path and our playstyles.

You're welcome to message any of us, just remember me and Forth are on a different time.

Only quests left are wailing, griffons (because we haven't tried the wailing forest yet), tower of strength and khobay (the last time we had time, we did burning instead, but it's not as if those quests are hard) and the hunt (need to clear wailing).

Thats for 3 man... full teams have cleared fow many times in the past, of course.

Funny since that was the first group I had ever been with that cleared the entire forest as well. Our word in FoW is "AGGRO!".

Not sure which admin changed the map but um... how do I put this... Underworld?

Yeah, Avarre, I am going to message you in game soon.

We have got to get together soon and do some FoW (we love it, and I can tell you 3 do as well).

We can discuss builds and such as well (as we are not looking to uncover your 3 man build with this invitation )

Like I said, we run our Forgemaster Service with 4-5 of us for fun, so I am sure we will have some fun together and maybe complete FoW 100%.

Maybe we can set something up for either this weekend or later next weekend?

Talk to you soon,

Well, good luck with that. I've never been through the whole thing myself (mostly due to sheer laziness. Finding a good group is just too time consuming...), but I'd love to see some screenies of the places I haven't been too. So, good luck.

I'd offer to go there with you but I A) don't have enough experience B) work on the European servers and C) I'm a warrior. If that isn't easy to find, I don't know what is

Point you might want to think about

Europeans who reside on the American Servers will find it much harder to find a civilised time when there is favour.

When I first started America frequently had favour when it was peak European time (ie early evenings) however I've noticed that a lot of the time now this isnt the case.

For pretty obvious reasons - as the European Servers get more populated, they are more likely to get favour at the peak european times (which is kinda how it should be - but it's frustrating if you're a european playing on American servers)

In theory I would be interested, in practice, we rarely have favour at the times I am on during the week

Shadowspawn X, I would be really interested in joining you. I am also a monk and while I have been to fow many times, I never found a group that stayed till we cleared all the quests. They always got bored and left before we were done.

Clearing all the quests in fow and uw is the last thing I need to do, after that, I've done every mission, bonus and quests in the game. So your help in clearing fow would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

*edit* Forgot to mention, I am on EST time, I play on American Server and my in game name is Raven Gale.

Avarre, that was a good idea that the original poster had in my opinion.

I can assemble my 4 man crew to handle the first quest and all the forgemaster quests (including the book quest).

While we do this, you and your two can go and handle some of the others like the fiery forest. We can meet back when we are done and finish anything that is less. This should make things go much quicker as we can have those 5 quests knocked out in about 1hour and 15min with the 4 of us.

Talk to you soon,

p.s. Shadowspawn, I may message you as well Gotta love FoW huh?
