 So I thought that I'd bring a new way of presenting a GameAmp guide for Guild Wars.
ENTER VIDEO-GUIDE!
Enjoy!


Click here if that didn't work.

Extra Tips:
- Assign your hero flagging keys to something like f5,f6,f7,f8 so that you don't have to click on the flag icon every time.
- Download the HFFF Flag Modin order to make flagging much easier. For help on how to use/run the mod, go to: Here.
- Make your Minimap huge so that clicking on the red dots is easier.
-HFFF is very useful for Survivor characters that do not have EoTN because you earn about 2k experience every 1-2 minutes. Also, you never have to risk the danger of dying.

For some reason I feel they should nerf this. The FFF quest is meant for PvE'ers that need to befriend the Kurzicks/Luxons. Getting your title in this way in stead of AB (wich was made for that specific reason) is not fair to the other ppl imo.
Templates  MorveAeris on 03/08/08 11:14

In case you needed them, the templates are:
Zenmai - Og5PPTwUDr8XrzAAAAAA
Margrid - OgcSc5PPTwUDrUn5bAAAAAA
Jin - OgcSc5PPTwUDrUnBAAAAAAA
Have Fun!

Your comment would've made a lot more sense if it weren't for the fact that you have to gain that 10k before you can even get there...

Who said AB was the only way to get that title? There are PvE-skills linked to the title, so isn't it obvious that there should be some way to gain them from doing PvE as well ;-)

Mehh, you need the 10k to get the quest to get to eternal grove. Melandrus hope is the area next to Fort aspenwood and accesable without the 10k. So Beeeep, wrong ;)

Awesome band. =]
  Hardstrike on 03/08/08 12:42

and I don't want to be rude but another related video on the youtube link is kinda more helpfull, showing the run in steps and not all just at the same time. Its really hard to follow all things at the time so one hero at the time would be nicer.. maby a small add?
  Future Man on 03/08/08 12:42

anyone have an extra copy of factions to give me?


  furball on 03/08/08 13:09

For the ones who ain't got those heroes.. you don't need those heroes..

i did it for a long time with Zhed/ Olias and Master of Whispers. all you need is Shadow form and 1 / 2 running skills.

Just as effective (:
  mason717 on 03/08/08 16:35

Nice video.
The guide on wiki was kinda confusing at first. :P



  Ulv on 03/09/08 07:59

Nicely done
But I prefer the 3 Rangers (if you have EOTN)
My fastest run was 10k faction in 27min
  shawnus1 on 03/09/08 11:31

sounds like one of the guys from blink 182 singing, is it by any chance? :)

nice guide ^^
  Chrisworld on 03/09/08 13:09

I think you are the first person to do that, simply amazing, i hope its not some sort of glitch tho lol
  jaffar_al_kahyet on 03/09/08 13:15

Bloody brilliant! Now I can actualy do this myself! Thanks great guide and I love the video guide idea ;)

What would the difference be though, timewise? o_O
  Blazings on 03/09/08 15:06

But why use Shadow Form? It ends pretty fast and than they have almost no health remaining. Why don't they die when they only have 40 hp remaining? =$

+44 is a band with two of the three guys from Blink 182: Travis Barker and Mark Hoppus. The other guy went and created Angels and Airwaves.

Because there are no more mobs until they reach their destination.

As for the guide: Nice one, don't really need Troll Unguent though. Can be done with Shadow Form + running stances that you can keep up.

Margrid will only use Troll Unguent once she reaches her first flag, so I use it to notify me when to flag her to her second dot.
  Itis Me Luigi on 03/10/08 16:13

A good human team is faster. But many people buy HFFF(er) for 150g a run. Double your money. :D
  Evil Geek on 03/11/08 19:00

Nice video guide, good concept would like to see more :)

For those who dont want to use the mod I had an image in my gallery which shows the hero placements




One of the heroes needs to be flagged at point 1a, once your confident they are there you can then flag that hero to point 1b, reason for this is flagging directly to point 1b can mean the hero getting stuck before reaching it. Don't forget you can zoom in on the mission map using your scrollwheel.

I Have EotN so I use three rangers who all have bows with 20% enchant mods- really not needed just means shadow form lasts a little longer.

Faction farming is a grind thats for sure, HFFF at least makes it faster.

thnx for the guide and video nicely done!
  Major Hinata Fan on 03/13/08 01:05

hmm i might try this, thnx. Since i don ab very often as much as i would like, might take a few tries to get this 2 work as good as i saw in vid. If there is better ways meh i'm still gonna try this for awhile 2 get faction haha.
  Major Hinata Fan on 03/13/08 01:11

Just lookin at this "-HFFF is very useful for Survivor characters that do not have EoTN because you earn about 2k experience every 1-2 minutes. Also, you never have to risk the danger of dying."

If i added this up right you would make 2880000xp in 24 hours. But i do not think i added that right how i got it is 2k x 60=120000 x 24=2880000.

But i do not think that is correct, I have forgotten how 2 add stuff with time. Can some1 give an exact calculation as 2 how much xp u would make. Also how much faction do u make doing this?

I can now finish a run before Margrid's Shadow form recharges after using it once, so that means that each run that I do takes less than a minute. I aim to make 10k kurzick faction a day, which is 25 runs and 50,000 experience. To do all 25 runs, it takes me around 35 minutes because of slow zoning. Assuming you're already level 20 when you start HFFF'ing, you would need 1,196,400 more experience, which is about 600 runs. I'm guessing if you got good at it, you could earn 10k faction in 30 minutes, so that's 50 runs an hour, taking you only 12 hours to reach r3 survivor.
  mriswith on 03/14/08 04:37

I often find Margrid running back to me instead of running to her second flag :/ pretty annoying... I use the troll unguent trick to see when she is about to reach point 1; but in about 50% of the runs i see her dying while running back to me >.<
  Major Hinata Fan on 03/16/08 00:29

For this do u have 2 maually pic the skills the heros use? Or do u need 2 do skill binding?
  Major Hinata Fan on 03/16/08 03:29

Nvm I figured it out.

Any1 else notice the some how zenmai is randomly back at starting point every 1nce in awhile?
