Jade Arena Luxon Faction Farming[edit]
One day after waiting to get into an alliance battle for almost 5 minutes, I gave up and resorted to look for other options to gain quick factions to unlock allegience skills(luxon) on my newly made PvE Character. That was when I found out Jade Arena. I looked up on Wikis to figure out an optimum build to do it as fast as possible. My aim was to do it within 2 minutes per run so that I can get my needed 3k luxon factions within 15-20 minutes. For farmers it can be almost 9-10k luxon factions per hour. I have done this with heroes and henches only and it takes me always 2 minutes per run. I thought I would share this with the community:

Panaku
Seaguard Eli
Talon Silverwing
Sister Tai
NOTE: The Ursan variant is really for any character to use. I have also tried the ursan version on multiple characters replacing the warrior-only skills by other skills. And the build worked just fine.
Tactics:
- 1. Go out of Breaker Hollow in Normal Mode.
- 2. Take the blessings from Luxon Priest.
- 3. Quickly dispose off Scuttle Fish nearby and follow up by killing one Irukandji and a Creeping Carp.
- 4. Move upto the hilly area where you will get a spwan of Oni. Dispose them off and move down the ledge towards Arena Master Portus and get the quest.
- 5. Now follow the path towards the battle pit. Before engaging make sure you place Frozen Soil (at least level 6) up on the higher ledge. Once Soil is up, make your way down to the pit to start the battle.
- 6. You can identify the monks by tabbing through the enemies to watch what skills they use and/or by looking at their staff skin. Dispose them off quickly. If you notice a few of the opponent fighters are on the upper ledge and are possibly away from the effect of Frozen Soil, make sure you kill them as soon as possible.
- 7. The key to fast runs is to ensure that the enemy can't resurrect their party members.
Good Luck and let me know how this worked out for you. There may be even better builds to do faster runs too.
