That photo was taken today.

With most people moving on from GW, there isnt enough people earning favour to maintain it. To make this game survive just a little longer, remove the favour problem and give scrolls access at all times.

That or just fix the reaper bug so we can pay the 1k, but that wont happen.

There is still plenty of people In game to earn favor...or you know...roll a new char and earn some favor yourself FoW and UW isnt all there is in GW. Plus if there isnt anyone in game as you suggest then why does Fow and UW even matter.

And ya scrolls work regardless

This.
I'm more concerned about losing res shrine blessings when the game is no longer popular enough to maintain favor. (Yeah, we have cons for those buffs too, but I'm cheap. )

you have to remember theres been a big rush to get hom sorted so a lot of titles have been done and its going to take a few days for more titles to be done.
But i do also agree that the favor should be wiped - think we`ve almost had favor for 2 yrs now constantly

make it back to the old way: win hall of heroes 5times to earn the favor.

And that would solve the problem via people actually NEED to do HA :-)

you being serious or are you trolling?

1. ha'ers don't give a shit about favor and haven't since 2005/early 06.
2. serious ha'ers quit years ago
3. the population is decreasing by the day for pve and pvp has literally decreased to so little even RA is getting restarts regularly.
4. nobody gives a shit about UW/FOW just to farm some pixels to begin with
5. use scrolls as suggested

AND what would be the point to winning HA just to farm UW when you are winning HA already? im pretty sure mini ghostly > anything that drops in uw/fow.

unlikey as people complete uw/fow runs they will get their scrolls back from the end chest.

also it will give scrolls some sort of value atleast.

not to mention people are already using scrolls am i not right?

Last I checked, no scrolls at the traders. Was going to make a UW run, but was locked out.

i'm all for removing the need of favor, i mean.... why doing so much work if you wanna do UW or FoW for a change? (or forever, lol)
people like to play the way they want
buying scrolls, or get em with z coins, which they maybe need for other stuff first all the time, gives it even more requirements, and i dont think thats what GW needs

and yes, this was to be expected one day, as we have to count on people, or "buy" our way in, and not just paying money, unless of course you wanna buy z coins with the stupid community prices, which always changes to the bad side, with things like this

nah, just give people the freedom to go from ToA and the other 2 places, the old fashion way
that at least gives us 1 of the oldest options we have "kneel and pay 1k"

i was fan of this idea long ago, but didnt think i could ever do fow or uw (fow can be easy on NM)

even if we should buy z coins for it, that will be rare in the future too, with GW2 coming out for real (not counting beta)

like someone said, "the rush for HoM" is over soon enough

this is an old suggestion, but true in the future
i wouldnt like farming z coins to get just a few enters per day

i would like to see fow and have enough tries when i wanna, as i'm not going to GW2, but still wanna be in GW as far as i can be

Scrolls keep dropping.

They even have increased drop while in FoW and UW.

And scrolls work even in Embark Beach, so you can use them to go there with almost anyone.
