Speed clear
From Guild Wars Wiki
Jump to navigationJump to search
A speed clear is a method of quickly completing a PvE goal using a team build optimized for the task, in order to quickly farm faction or highly-coveted items, such as gemstones or Celestial Compasses. Speed-clearing teams avoid battling foes unless those deaths are required to meet some objective. Teams also commonly divide into groups to perform several tasks simultaneously.
The fast pace and the high value of the rewards allows the efforts to be profitable even after buying consumable sets from other players.
