| Hey White Mantle Peacekeepers: SCREW YOU!...So I tried to go farm some Fog Nightmares for dust last night. Lo and behold, not only did I have to fight mobs of Mantle Peacekeepers on the way down (aided by Shadow and her assassin-skill-having spider, Carlotta, who for some reason joined my party when I walked out of ToA), but when I reached the Fog Nightmares those Peacekeeper bastards were already killing them off! I guess even Peacekeepers need to make consets. In any case, until this War In Kryta shit gets resolved, there goes the goddamn Fog Nightmare farm.  I'm assuming my Inferno Imp farm in Tahlmark Wilderness is out too. ANet really should've put in a goddamn way to turn this War In Kryta shit 'off' or had it only appear via some sort of triggered instance. To be perfectly honest, I'd rather have the Fog Nightmare farm intact than update notes-only storylines. As it stands now, I'm being penalized because I actually played through Prophecies and beat it. What glory! ______________________  |

| lol, i agree. but oddly where i go to get feathers they were there but not when killian went out there, not sure if its a random spawn or something that may or may not trigger them. |

If your character has beaten Prophecies or EotN you trigger the War In Kryta events. It's the same reason why you can't find the Shining Blade camp without one of those campaigns beat. This is why I mentioned, "As it stands now, I'm being penalized because I actually played through Prophecies and beat it. What glory!" Peacekeepers are freakin' EVERYWHERE in Kryta right now. I didn't realize they were that widespread. Truth be told, if Linsey didn't have back issues delaying the War In Kryta stuff then this part may have been resolved by now. The War In Kryta content unveiling was originally planned for the 5th-Year Anniversary, but I'm sure the 'back issues' are just a convenient excuse for yet another ANet show of incompetence. That's no solace for the current predicament we're in, and that's one-less excellent dust farming location if you actually play through the game.
I guess I'm going to have to hold off on beating either of those two campaigns on my 2nd account with some of my farming characters, at least until I know for sure whether or not this shit is permanent. I hope to god it isn't.______________________  |

| So... how do back issues stop you from doing work that doesn't involve physical labor? That's my question....
I mean, unless she's in the HOSPITAL for a back issue.... she should be able to sit her fat ass at a computer and do her job. |

With the activities added in the May 21, 2010 game update, it now appears that the Peacekeepers are permanent additions to Kryta once you beat Prophecies or EotN on a character. I guess if you want an untarnished land you'll have to avoid doing so.______________________  |

| there's better places to farm dust and feathers anyway
btw for dust, farming amber wands is my favorite... an amber wand with measure to measure on it yields about 70-100 dust. and i usually get like 10-25 wands a run.
also, you could always make a char just for farming dust/feathers and have it never beat eotn or proph like said above, and considering it's normal mode that shouldnt be too hard to do. sucks to make a char just to do it, but if you wanna keep your farm alive thats your best bet. |

| IMO, if you aren't farming FoW for dark remains, Fog Nightmares is/was/can be again! the best drop spot. I don't mind making the extra character. I have an extra slot on my main account that I don't know what to do with right now anyways. Right now, that slot is being used by a Santa Claus Paragon. ______________________  |
