Guild Wars 2

Why are people even complaining about the prenerf Pavilion farming? There are more lucrative areas, and the gauntlet is one of them. If you run a zerker warrior on tier 3 subject 7 with 4 gambits, you can get a run done every minute and get 30s + extra sprockets per run. Compared to the Pavilion farming, which has the downside of diminishing returns, I find it hilarious that people are so whiny.

Proof!

ok.,…………….

Great now that is going to get nerfed……… thanks.

He had two foods, probably about 16 silver. He also used his elite, which has a cooldown. I admit it’s good money though.

First you read 20g/h and think “wow, where?”

Then you see it is a 30s farm done over and over and think “there has got to be better entertainment to be found in this game than doing this run for gold”.

I’ve done this fine without food. The other one was a bandit slaying potion I was using earlier. But what would you really expect if you wanted to get 20g/h. The event farm isn’t that much more fun, really, and requires more attention.

thanks for sharing!
now i gotta try this out before they nerf it!

Great now this farm is going to get nerfed too… People just can’t keep things to themselves can they? This is why we don’t get nice things…

You don’t net 20g/h by this. Then again, sad quaggan is sad if Anet changes anything about this.

I don’t see why they’d nerf it. The tickets are the limiting factor. It is intended to get one box per ticket and that’s what you get. If you’re good or a berserker warrior you can use the tickets faster with gambits. Seems to be working as intended.

Bind it how you want but this is officially nerfed in a few lol

You’d have to be very lucky with lodestones to make 20G/hour, but I did make 16G in the last hour (plus 2 sovereign skins). Would be more if people didn’t steal my arena.

I waited 15 minutes just to get in today and then gave up out of frustration. I don’t see how I make any gold at all by just sitting around.

I have yet to play even one round.

Champ farming is more lucrative I find, especially with the new skins.

There are several champ farm spots that are well known and unknown.

Not going to spill the secrets because I’m somewhat self-fish, but there is one area where you can kill and respawn a champ every minute

Try moving to another server, or find an arena where people are dying as they’ll likely wp out once they die. The reason you make 20 g/h is because each run nets you 5 bags, each bag of which is 10s and 4-6 sprockets each. That’s ~25 sprockets and 50s every run. The tickets are NOT the limiting factor because you can trade in 15 sprockets and 20s for five tickets, which is exactly how much the run costs. If you do the math, you get around 10~ extra sprockets (which are worth some silver too) and 30s profit, which is more than enough if you farm optimally to get 20 g/h. If you calculate only the 30s itself, that is around 18g/h, but like i said this is not counting the sprockets. I go afk a bunch in between and still making far more money than CoF ever has given (it was 7 g/h), while this farm has no DR.
