| I'll be down for some vanquishing this weekend. I could use some Kurzick faction on my second account.
As of yet Reave and I haven't had the free time to start informing everyone about [xEYE] and its (peaceful) intentions to co-exist with [meh] in the ECTOs Community as a complimentary guild to [meh]. I'm still a bit busy finishing up my TV shows (TV seasons end over the next couple of weeks) and obviously trying to make sure the community doesn't fall apart due to childish behaviors of the past couple days. Apologies for the empty [xEYE] forums smack-dab in the middle of the forums list. I know it's kind of an eye-sore atm, pun intended. I promise to start breaking them in ASAP (within the next day or two).
Anyways, back to the point... ie. this weekend's bonus. I know [meh] is Luxon allegiance, but [xEYE] is Kurzick with a full hall. If anyone in the community needs a spur-of-the-moment invite to dump faction, or a temporary weekend home, they are welcome an invite to [xEYE] for that. The guild is still new so there's plenty of roster space to accommodate any faction title seekers. Everyone is officer in [xEYE] by default (no politics = no drama, just fun) so there should be a few people around to help with transitions, should they be needed (including any temps). John is currently over in [xEYE] finishing up his Kurzick title before returning to [meh], so if he's around he can aid in that as well. ______________________  |

No worries about eye-soreing. We now have collapsible forums. All you do is click the category bar to collapse or expand the section.
If i'm on, ill join in on some vanquishes.______________________  |

| mmmm. Double Kurz faction.... So glad they didn't wait another year (like they did last time) before doing this again. I'm going to try to fill up before the bonus, then fill up again during the weekend (several times). 2 mil goes quick when it's cut in half by 75%!!! 500k to donate means 20-25 vq's til max. |

| yeah it's 75% if you have 50k in your bar and donate to alliance it counts as 200k towards title as apposed to 100K therefor 75% cheaper. |

| When you donate to a guild on any other weekend, you gain double what you donate. So 50k donated turns into 100k toward your title. During the double weekend, if you donate 50k, that 100k toward your title turns to 200k. 50k is 75% of 200k  |

| And before anyone goes all badass on me, your faction also doubles if you get a kurz/lux skill. 3k turns into 6k toward your title on a normal weekend and into 12k during this weekend.
Nothing else is doubled on any other weekend, though. So for Urgoz scrolls, you'll get 1k normally toward your title, but 2k this weekend. Amber/Jadite Shard is 5k toward title on normal weekends and 10k during this weekend. Hope that helps. |

Which is EXACTLY why I suggest anyone buying Kurz/Lux skills on characters who need them rather than simply donating the faction for your alliance. Get as much use out of your faction first.
And as John wrote, keep in mind that this weekend's double bonus means some things will be 4x the faction rate as they are always 2x (faction skills, alliance faction donations). Everything else is always 1x the donation rate (amber/jade, scrolls) so this weekend it's only 2x with the double bonus. Basically, your best bet for those working on your faction title is to 1) get any Kurz/Luxon skills on characters who don't have them, and 2) donate to the alliance. It's the same amount of faction for each, but don't miss out on the free skills if you need them. You never know what builds may come out requiring them (for any class).
You are in essence throwing away half of what you (could) earn this weekend (and any other day in the year) by getting amber/jade or scrolls. Don't let the double weekend's wording fool you.______________________  |

| Seems like I'm going to have my hands full this weekend with soon-to-be-necessary ectos.darkbb.com forums work and won't have much, if any, free time to actually take advantage of the double Kurz/Lux faction proceedings. Drats. ______________________

Sorry for the correction, but 50k is only 25% of 200k. |

I'm not sure what you mean by this, but I don't think you need to worry about the forums until at least after this weekend. Play the game, Steve. No one will be upset with you if you actually take the time to play the game. Well, maybe a jackass or two, but no one that matters. |

Oh, and I did indeed finish my Rit's drunkard title last night. Time to move on to bigger and better things! ______________________  |
