Maintaining Factions

[walay]

I found a way not to lose factions so much...and that is keep abbing even when we dont have Keys or whatever territory we think we can win all the time.I mean i have played at Grenz/Ancestral lands for this past few days and had almost same percentage of wins from Beach or Keys..even when u lose u still get at least 300 to 600 factions(sometimes its a quick game anyways[average of 5 minutes with score of around 500-100 or less] when u lose ,meaning u still get same amount of factions when u win a 20 minute game.)I guess u just have to get use to losing...:).

AB is a good way to try ur builds so it doesnt matter if u lose or win.i'm just sick of listening to "I hate Grenz!" everytime i ask someone to AB.

This is how [DzK] & [PAIN](11 members btw) maintains thier factions.

This post only concerns ppl in alliance that really wants a Town.

Another thing we should cover is AB strategy.

It almost never helps to fight the kurzicks. The only time you should consider fighting them is if you have both more shrines than them and you have more points than them. The rest of the time it almost always is better to run away and go find an unguarded shrine to capture. I have turned a close loss into a close win many times by staying away from the Kurzicks and just capping unguarded shrines while everyone else was mobbing to battle each other in the middle. Its too late when they notice we somehow have more shrines than them and the score has shifted back to our favor.


Also if you get tired of AB, then you should consider doing the Jade Arena quest just outside of breaker hollow. It is a repeatable quest so everyone in your group can get the same reward. It is 2000xp + 150gold + 400 faction for about a 3 minute quest. You can do it with all heroes and hench and you will still get the reward. If you take the ranger spirit Frozen Soil to prevent the computer guys from Resing each other, it is pretty consistently 3 minutes or less. If you dont have frozen soil or they kill it a couple times, you end up with a 5 minute quest.

when ur i a kurz territory, try helping a group that just capped a shrine .The reason for this is that ur guaranted to cap 2 shrines plus u killed 1 grp then go on and cap the shrine that was just capped by the grp u just whooped giving u 1 shrine ahead.Now just go around capping and u should have at least 80% chance of winning depending on how many leechers u have of course which is pretty common on Kurz maps,thats why its a good thing to have an alliance/guild grp going.

One more evil idea of mine is go on Kurz side as a monk or necro(primary/secondary) and bring Infuse Health or Blood of the Master or BiP,then spam them at the beggining of the match giving ur opponents(Luxon)+3 point everytime you die:).Have a grp and thats 12 points every 15 seconds. Mua ha ha ha ha.

Note:Some of you may not know that u can bring one of the ELITE
Soldiers/Elementalist/Rangers/Dragon to help u .So always bring them with you(just talk to them.)

Have fun!!

Thought not as good as Tahlkora, its nice to have a NPC monk following you around. Got a nice compliment from a Dervish I defeated defending the res shrine at Etnaran once. I dont think he realized I only beat him cause the NPC monk was throwing some healing my way when I got low.

I also remeber one poor sin who warped in to kill me as I was going to kill the monk at a res shrine at Saltspray. I hit Glads defense and my pet dragon rode the lightning in and trashed him in seconds while I kept pounding away at the monk.
