as of last night, Cavalon is now worth 8 million faction.
Nearly double what HzH is worth.
So, any Luxon Alliances who arent completely full in terms of guilds and members... you might aswell stop trying now.

i'm sad BKBd got it back, TC were offering free acess into the elite missions the other day for anyone who want to go. i think an alliance like that should run cavalon.

any guild that prevents other from taking part should be pulled. its a game people, shelve your egos. this isnt a pissing contest. shutting out the smaller guilds is assinine and should never have been put in the game.. its the one thing i do not like and will complain about

i really hope you do manage to take it, your a credit to this game, giving everyone the chance to play. And also do you have any room left in any of your guilds? i'd love to join.

The TC members are very happy for all of the support we get from the GW community. Thanks

Going a little off topic here and i sincerely apologise, but I wouldn't mind donating a little faction to TC if it was possible to do so as a quick temporary guest. If TC are up for being the 'defenders' of the communitys rights to enter elite missions and don't find it too tedious a task to keep ferrying people across, it would be faction well spent .

I suggest people stop making these useless threads which ends up becoming an alliance vs alliance flame war. If TC wants to take back cavalon, let them. If BkBd owns it, let them.
The flaming and hating really needs to stop.
IMO A-Net needs to take a position on elite missions.

Dont worry, Black blades are gunna keep it. (I'm a black balde).
Look at your GW:Factions box.
It says "Only the top alliences will have acsess to elite missions."
So why everyone hates us? We worked out ass off to get faction, to controll the deep, we deserve it...

please stop with the TC vs BLBK threads...this thread started about the faction holding Cavalon, not who is holding it and who is about to and who is cheating and who is paying for faction, etc, etc, etc
STOP IT ALREADY!

a-net wont take a position, mostly because this what i consider a blemish on their design. they could always say they intended for something like this to happen, so as to develop a better community. but that's just bullsh*t. you won't hear Gaile take time away from posting in any thread that supports factions to post in a thread that is criticizing it. she avoids them like the plague.
edit:
haha upon rereading that it's mostly complaining. i guess i've spent too much time in the dev forum and only reading responses from dev's in threads that show support is kind of irritating. gaile has yet to comment on elite missions.
maybe she is taking her time, to allow for things to settle down and for the 'newness' of factions to wear off before they start making changes or commenting on the current system

Go for it, it gives purpose in owning Cavalon, fun fighting over Cavalon with you guys minus all the useless flames...One alliance's beliefs might not be anothers...

if you read the thread 'elite missions available to all' in the riverside inn you will indeed see that gaile DID respond about this (would post the link if I knew how....)

Do remember the devs will devise, discuss, and then test this new means of access. They'll amend, if necessary, or roll out if all is found to be good to go. Basically, nothing is easy, or simple, when you want to do it right. So give us a month or two to finalize this system, and we'll share more with you as it becomes available!
Thanks for your thoughts. To those of you who expressed your concerns so constructively and with such support, an extra-special thanks! Here ya go...

By the time, ANet makes it available to all (per Gaile's reply on the thread), we would have farmed it to our hearts contents

It would be cool if there were civil wars erupting between guild alliances in Cavalon. A civil war to control Cavalon or House zu Heltzer!

So what is a war exactly?
Spies, Propaganda, Subterfuge, Slander, Lies and well.... exactly what appears to be happening ....
Is this the way it was meant to be?
Well if setting up a war between 2 opposing sides was the objective it hasnt really been met...
If it was to generate a very (un)CIVIL war amongst the various Guilds... JOB DONE!!

TC is back in control of Cavalon Deep is back open. Good run Bkbd I'm sure you'll be back I love the competition.

You know, instead of just farming faction to control it, I think it would be better if the two alliances duked it out.
And we all could watch.

If you want to see uncivil, go to Cavalon some time when there are 20+ BkBd members just trashtalking the TC members in public chat.
EDIT: to the above, I also had an idea like that...if we could GvG for faction. That would be awesome

I think this would be an incredible idea to implement.
Top 2 alliances FIGHT it out Alliance v Alliance 5 times a day. 20 v 20. Whoever wins get's control for the next day. Outsiders can watch and make faction wagers on the battles. For instance I wager 10k on TC or BKBD and if they win that battle I double my faction pts...if I lose I lose it all. Also crank up the Faction limit higher so that the risks and thrill of wagering is increased! ex: I bet 100k for TC or BKBD and OMG they lost...1 whole day of FF is gone.
To protect from hiring elite PvP players participants must be a member of the alliance for at least 1 month to participate in the A v A battle.

Keep up the good work Relnor. Hat's off to you guys.
And yes, alliances have every right to do what they want when controlling an elite mission. However, their actions will be judged by the community on how they use the powers given to them.

Yeah 2 minute runs are way to fast...but just don't fix it yet cause I need to open a few more chests for that title...lol.

Well Lets See...The Crusaders alliance currently owns it with 9.6M...9 guilds (Space for 1 more!).
I'd like to see a GvG between the two alliances...as one of our guilds (The Next Chapter [TnC]) is pretty much a guild including 50 members of R3 through R9, and at one time ranked pretty high on the ladder.

Yeah go TC =) I'll have to head over there after work. BTW why don't you guys take Faction donations? I'm sure there are countless people who would be willing to donate Faction points to you. i for one sure would.

Halls rank is irrelevant to GvG? No?
Anyway, hooray for TC taking back Cavalon! It's pretty pathetic that BkBd have to spread lies and spy on TC, but it just makes the win all that much sweeter, no?

So, any Luxon Alliances who arent completely full in terms of guilds and members... you might aswell stop trying now. Um, according to one of the posts above, TC took it over again, with well over 9 million faction, and only 9 guilds. I'm glad they didn't give up. I can't wait to see how high the price of controlling Cavalon will go. It will certainly be 10 million soon, probably today. Considering TC made such a rush this weekend, and they currently only have 9 guilds, I suspect it will hit the 15 million mark soon, with 20 million perhaps not that far into the future either. Yes, I am enjoying watching the fireworks, and not just the ones you can buy.
Pegasux, I don't know where you heard that TC doesn't accept faction donations, but I thought it was very clear that they did. Perhaps your source was someone outside of their alliance, who didn't want you to help them??? There is even a thread in the Q&A section by one of their members explaining how to do it, if you want to.
Kybos - Click 'm' for map, and single click on the city you want to check the ownership of. The pop-up window shows the owning alliance and the amount of faction as of the last update, which occurs every three hours.

When you click on a town (for example Cavalon), you will see a description of that town an how much factions needed to control it. You will also see the alliance currently control that town.
Go TC, you guys are doing a great job.

Yeah we like this competitive state i think that is the idea fo factions what i dislike is how they control the town and restrict the use of it to other members some peolpe dont even have a guild they are solo people and not to have acces is not a good thing they should at least put a fee for other people who will like ot make use of it but i mean a controlled fee were profits are split over all the member of the controling guilds.
that way should be better.
