Maxed out Faction, now what?
AlienFromBeyond
I've maxed out my Faction, and now am at a loss as to what to do for the rest of this FPE weekend. I could continue to do PvP, but with no rewards it doesn't seem worth it. I'm thinking of just going back on my warrior and farming some ettins. THey should be dropping golds like mad with everyone off at Cantha.

actually there are still crap loads of people doin what they always do farm or sell. most people didnt even know about the FPE.

It seems that you can buy something called jadeite for your armor. I still haent found what its used for. (costs 1k factions for lux)

Farm and UNLOCK!! Anything you unlock here stays unlocked for a PvP char and for your skills bar (you may have to buy it back) if you merge an account with your own prophecies account.

In the middle of the Petrified Sea, below the Gyala Hatchery theirs a place called the Leviathon Pits. You can get 15K armor from there, its like 30 Jadeite per 'vestment' plus other materials (and the 15K).

what do you normally do with faction you have gotten in the past?how about unlocking a few things to make more room in your faction bank account.
i hear there are new skills and stuff
AlienFromBeyond
You don't unlock with Luxon faction, you unlock with Balthazar faction.

"members can spend their points individually"
This means you take it to the [Faction Rewards] people, for every 1k of Faction you get a piece of Amber (Kurzick) or Jade (Luxon)
15k armours require them as crafting materials.

THANK YOU

I don't think the non-Balthazar faction has anything to do with unlocking skills, runes, etc.
I think that later on Anet will just add items for you to purchase through Faction, that's all.

Also, I was wondering if anyone has tried transferring stuff back to Tyria? You can get a guy over to the Alliance Battles through your Guild Hall, and so can your FPE guy. I know that the trade button does appear in the waiting area for the Alliance Battles, so is there anything from preventing one from transferring stuff back to Tyria through a trusted friend/guildmate?

i couldn't acces the guild hall last i tried, wanted to use it for unlocks then sell it for cash
AlienFromBeyond
I'm saying someone goes to the guild hall and uses it to go to the alliance battles. You meet him there and trade him your stuff (perhaps some jadeite/amber) and he ports back to the guild hall. You then log onto your main/storage char, and have him trade back the stuff you gave him.

I tried.

Well, it's probably a good thing they disabled it. It would be a bit unbalancing.

I don't feel your pain buddy, I've been capped on balth faction since August.
I imagine this new faction will have more uses than it does currently when spent on yourself. Since nothing's kept from pve characters this weekend, a lot of that was probably just not put in yet.

PvP gets you more than Balthazar faction, it can also help your guild ranking, get you fame, and cool stuff from the chest in HoH.

-there's nothing at guild hall to redeem with faction side pts...
-Amber use is for the 15k/piece+materials armor that still look like the normal sentinel from merchant window (unless someone's purchased it and is different from the 1.5k sentinel set @House Z.)
Question: Will we be able to save the 10k faction side pts after the fpe? (since it is account based.)

I believe it was said that any faction earned this weekend will stay.

also my impression/understanding.
stands to reason as its shared across your characters and quests exist in Prophecies now for it too

But your faction declines over time so by the time factions is out next month your faction will be nearly nothing or completely nothing.

You can (in full game) either cash in faction for rare material or transfer it to your alliance to help with control of cities. So it'll always have a use.
