The Black Blades.

The BlackBlades - let the blade cut your path to glory.

With that said, we had plenty of reasons to keep it for ourselves apart form the riches it gave us, we earnt that in a time where no one could contest that. But its all done now, most of the guild,and allaince members went to WoW or family things. But again why drag up a thread over a year old? It shoulda imo been locked way back when, meh.

Either way GG, was fun having the missioon to ourselves, and having to spend 3 weeks to come up with a build that worked. And the sentimental value that you have the very first type of that weaponed that dropped in there was absoluetly amazing.

Thread necromancy, or Threadcromany as some call it, is a terrible thing.

am I the only one that remembers that now you can turn in faction for passage scrolls? Taxi not needed now so it really don't matter who owns the towns anymore.

Indeed thats true. This thread needs to be closed, by I'll make 1 point...

The guilds that own the towns I think need another perk to owning it. If they get a discount on lockpicks, then forget I said anything.

Anet fixed this issue way too late.

Almost a year later. The elite missions are dead, because they are poorly designed cookie cutters, and because the acess sucks. It was really awful to not-be-able to leave and come back if you needed to buy a skill.

True story: My secondary account was an officer in [ROAR], one of the [Bkbd] guilds that was excluding everybody for the first month when the alliance singlehandedly owned cavalon all for itself (I joined before months before factions when [ROAR] was a relatively small UW/FoW/GvG/HA guild with a great community not what it became, but this was never my primary account). I wanted to use this to get into the Deep, but my Primary account was not in the alliance and the officer account did not have factions linked to it.

So I had to try (1) try to figure out how to not get kicked [people were getting kicked for leeching and not contributing faction... and I was not contributing faction and wasnt even playing on this secondary account that much], and (2) try to figure out how to get other people to invite a person they didnt know (against the rules, a bannable offense) into the Deep without being able to access any of factions myself (and without revealing that my account was basically a leech).

I was trying to do that while this thread was raging, (alliance chat and cavalon chat was particularly inflamed, because anet's design just made most people angry and should have made others rich) and finally made it to the Deep with my main account (which had factions) just before TC took over and opened it up to everybody... (I decided I didnt like the Deep after all and played Urgoz for a while instead).

They do get a discount on lockpicks. A perk of this bonus is that anybody can buy lockpicks from anybody for 1.3k because the owner of a town can buy as many of them as you need for 1.2k. At 200g saved per lockpick (and 100g of pure profit to the town-controller) it is a great perk going into this weekend's chest farm event.

Well, at least this gave me an excuse to break this out again.

Yet if he made a new topic, he would be told to "use the search feature" and get his topic closed. Looks like he can't win.
