Guild Wars 2

I know about the strights and the centaur bridge in kessex hills.
Are there any other fast event chains and where do they start?

Northern Gendaren fields you can bounce between the centaur rock hound event, kill 2 veteran event, defend the town(name escapes me but its west of the 2 veterans), and another event to the far west to kill a champion+2 vets.

Norther Harathi centaur event(4 event chain with ~10-15 minute downtime after) absolutely tons of kills for loot and xp. It cannot be soloed.You can then take the southern waypoint and there is a camp there that gets attacked every 5 minutes or so.

Southern Bloodtide there is an event to defend the camp from risen followed by an escort(you need to start it) to get some eggs. ~5 minute downtime iirc after escort then the defend event starts again.

Southern Sparkfly at the dragon area there is a krait event that happens very often and an event to defend a gorge that happens often as well.

Those are the ones I know of off the top of my head. Populations are dwindling though so some might be harder than others depending on a class.

This is what I did on my Guardian, Diamond Rat:

Levels 1-2
Did a few hearts.

Levels 2-18
Mad King Dungeon

Level 18-25
Crafting (Artificing 1-390), some Personal Story.

Level 25 – 45
Harathi Hinterlands events:
Event #1 – Kol The SkullSmasher (Champ giant event in a cave). Event starts when the Shining Guard Kimber is outside the cave. Talk to her and she’ll run inside. She may or may not just run in there anyway and die…sometimes I see her outside, sometimes she’s already dead. You can solo this champ as ranged (with a root/snare/stun), but it is going to take you nearly an hour, and you better have a way to refill endurance (sigils, traits, etc).
Event #2 – Kol dies, revive Kimber, she’ll lead you through the cave to kill some slimes. Easy.
Event #3 – Kimber’s friend opens a secret glowing passage in the back of the cave, which leads to the Centaur “war council”. Kill the 3 veteran centaurs (a melee, a ranged, and a shaman).
Event #4 – Unrelated to the cave, but close to the “war council” anyway, run to the main Centaur camp with the big gate that keeps the humans out. Start that chain, which is for releasing guards (i think).
Event #5 – Guards are released, assault the gate to attack the centaurs.
Event #6 – Kill the centaur warbeasts (champions, if i remember correctly. There are 3).
Event #7 – Kill the Centaur warlord. (I may be missing one event between 6 and 7).

Levels 45-60
Bloodtide risen event:
16 minutes total to run.
12:00 PM – Defend chief from risen.
12:04 PM – Chief defended. Talk to NPC near the armor repair guy.
12:05 PM – Griffon Egg hunt starts.
12:09 PM – Griffon Egg hunt ends. Run back to town.
12:17 PM ~ 12:19 PM Defend the Chief starts again.

Levels 60-70
Personal Story, Crafting, Map Completion.

Levels 70-80
Lonely Post event chain in Orr.

For future characters, I’ll get to level 15 by clearing the first map or two, then run events in the third map until 25 and I can do the rest just as I posted above. I hope it helps.

Is this the centaur king event where you have to defend camos. Kill the giant pets, then kill the earth element and the king?

I did this event 2 times at a lower level and im wondering if its worth returning to?

Do the events in lower level areas drop gear at level 80 stats? And is the karma about 370 per completed event?

Im trying to find an area I can mf rares then break down to ecto while farming karma. I just dont know where to do it. The more the merrier.

Yes it is the centaur king one.

Honestly, I’m not sure with the new rules. You’d probably have to test it. They stated 55+ events should now allow you to get level 80 gear so perhaps level 42 events can still get you level 70 gear? You’re not going to get 300+ karma I don’t think though.

You’re going to be hard pressed to find a chain of events with more mob kills that runs that regularly though. I mean on my ele that I’m leveling I regularly come out with 40-50 centaur bags alone. If level 42 stuff does drop 70+ loot then that’s probably one of the best events for farming rares.

Thanks ill have to try that out.

And hard pressed is an understatement.
