Double Luxon and Kurzick title points

Starting at Noon Pacific (-8 GMT) this Friday, you will receive double points for exchanging 1,000[sic] faction for Jadeite or Amber, for exchanging 3,000 faction for an alliance skill, and for transferring 5,000 faction to raise your alliance's reputation. This bonus will last through 11:59 PM Pacific (-8 GMT) on Sunday.

Interesting way to make up for Nicholas' Amber obsession, but at least it's something.

Nice to see they haven't updated the event description since Amber and Jade started costing 5k faction...

Lol, I didn't even notice that. Well +1 for Anet's copypasta abilities.

With 600/Smite taking a hit and the DTSC and MQSC groups possibly being out of luck, I can't wait to see how full JQ, FA, and AB get in the next few days, and how riddled of bots the first two become.

I've got a feeling that the waiting for JQ/FA/AB won't be a problem on the Luxon side. Hehe

I just vanquished Kurzick and Luxon areas last weekend. Ah well, I'll do a few kurzick areas for the title I guess.

Ugh... Just finished off legendary vanquisher and really don't want to vanq anything again for a good, long while... :-/

Nonetheless, I'll probably still vanq the entire Kurzick side of things a few times over this weekend... Not likely to ever actually max the title, but I futilely try. :-(

If kurz manage to get/keep Vasburg Armory this weekend, I might have to spend most of my time vqing Eternal Grove. I <3 that place.

Suck balls, nerfing 600/smite right before this. For those who dtsc, load up your kurz faction before the update, then you can dump it first thing when this event kicks.

considering that the nerf would come on thursday (CET unknown) and the event starts on friday (CET evening), you would have ~60k faction to spend on the alliance, to accumulate 240k points to your title. that's neat, but those who actually do dtsc for town control can easily get much more than that in the ~24h gap, even by regular vqing morostav if 600/smite gets severely nerfed.
it's a good option for those who occasionally gain faction and focuses mainly on getting their statues in hom.

I just hope DTSC is still viable after the update. I am sitting on 29 titles and only need 4m more Kurz Faction to get my GWAMM. It would be a kick in the teeth to have to revert to some super slow faction farm on a double faction weekend ...

This thread is not about any of the upcoming nerfs/buffs, but about the upcoming weekend event.

You can discuss the upcoming balance update here.

Keep on-topic.

Well I think that's probably the point isn't it? I'm sure there's a lot of people that want a lot of faction quickly and will be willing to work for a new method in the 24 hrs after nerf :P
