Faction Scavenger to help Unbalanced teams for Faction weekend
Ahoy. With the upcoming weekend, it would be a great time to have the ability to exchange one type of Faction (Kurzick or Luxon) for another, at a rate of 1:1, for the price of some gold, say ~200g for 5,000 Faction. This would allow people to choose what side to play on in competitive missions, and cut down on waiting times for the Kurzicks. It would also even up any stark Faction Farming advantages one side has over the other, and introduce a not-so-obvious gold sink. It's not much fun to queue up for several minutes, to play and then find your teammates afk due to boredom of queuing up for several minutes :P. I'd hope to imagine this would be easier to implement than pairing teams up against allies, and giving Faction where it is due, calling it a "Training exercise".Thanks!--Skye Marin 06:39, 25 March 2009 (UTC)
 * LOL! It's Wednesday, and you are suggesting this for THIS weekend? HAHAHAHAHA! It's not that tough to spend down your faction either way to be able to change sides. --[[Image:User Wynthyst sig icon.png | Wyn's Talk page]] Wyn 08:06, 25 March 2009 (UTC)

 * I know that, I just don't see a big need for it, and to say it would be nice to have for this weekend is just ridiculous beyond ridiculous. --[[Image:User Wynthyst sig icon.png | Wyn's Talk page]] Wyn 09:01, 25 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Personally, I can't wait for afk weekend to hit! Free fackshuns! -- adrin [[Image:User_adrin_ecto_sig.png]] 10:54, 25 March 2009 (UTC)
 * And how are you expecting to "make sense" of being able to change one faction for another? So, Kurzicks all of a sudden reward you with faction because you brought them some Luxon faction, and vice versa?  It makes no logical sense why the NPC's would want to reward you for allying up with their mortal enemy.  If anything, you should be punished for desertion.

 * You have a Faction Scavenger NPC, with NPC text describing how he could perform this service for you in the interest of his own personal gain. He is not aligned with either side. It's easy and obvious.--64.180.97.243 21:34, 25 March 2009 (UTC)
 * So, a spy then? If you're not "aligned" with either side, then you're not supposed to have any faction, and then no NPC will talk to you from either side, that's how they are.  Only a spy could get by.  But now you have to come up with his story and do most of the work yourself, and maybe, just maybe then they'll consider it, because this is a silly matter for Anet to waste their time on.  Right now, they'll just tell you to make friends with an opposing alliance and swap guilds when you get the itchies to swap factions.  The whole point of making opposing factions was because they are at war and swapping sides isn't supposed to happen, at least not in the scope suggested here.  Respect the lore, at least a little bit.  [[Image:User Rose Of Kali SIG.jpg]]Rose Of Kali  01:36, 26 March 2009 (UTC)
 * *sigh* What really should be done for the Weekend (and even could be done) is to remove the Amount of times an Account can issue a (Leech) Report within 24 hours. Aswell as lowering the amount of ppl needed for Leech Report to take effect to like 2 or max. 3 people reporting someone. So that all the Leechers (like you seem to be too) wont have anything out of the Weekend. The Leecher Problem will be extreme this Weekend in JQ and I wouldnt wonder to see teams with 5 or more Leechbots/Leechers. I fear that I'll get Dishonour from Leech Reports after like an hour of playing on the weekend. And hit the max reports in like 2 hours or less. Those changes are really just a change of variables and shouldnt take any longer then 10 minutes to do. Not to mention it would greatly help. -- Silent Storm  [[Image:User SilentStorm MySig.png|Talk to me|19px]] 02:19, 26 March 2009 (UTC)
