explore a bit. Shing Jea offers all major services such as armor, traders
(rune, scroll, dye) Storage, a new type of collector called
Quartermasters, and other services. Quests will reward you will Monastery
credits will you can trade into the Quartermasters for various items such
as Salvage and Identification kits. Merchants still sell them if you have
the gold to buy them of course. The various quests you will receive on
the island will be the next update to this walkthrough.
11b- New Mission Structure
This seems as good of time as any to cover the new mission system present
in Factions. There are a total of 13 missions in which to complete in
Factions. Two of them are on the starter island, and eleven are on the
mainland. If you are used to the mission structure in the first Guild
Wars game, this one will take a little getting used to. Bonus mission
objectives have been done away with completely (much to the cheer of many
a Guild Wars player), and has been replaced with a 3 level system:
Standard, Expert, and Master. Each reward stacks, and achieving a Masters
level reward on a mission will earn you the reward for all three levels.
The rewards are as follows:
===============================================================================
Standard- 1000xp, 100 gold, 1 skill point
Expert: 1500xp, 150 gold, 1 skill point
Master: 2000xp, 200 gold, 1 skill point
===============================================================================
So completing a mission at Masters Level will earn you 4500xp, 450 gold,
and 3 skill points. (To earn the Protectors of Cantha title complete all
13 missions at Masters Level). To achieve the 3 levels, most missions
time you, and each level is based on how quickly the mission is
completed. A few missions base the rewards on how well the objectives are
met: like how many NPCs you kept alive out of 12.
11c. Training Quest Walkthroughs for each Profession
More of these will be added all the time! Some of them might be named
wrong, but the general idea of them will be correct. I am going to
add Monk quests first. The quests are given in order. The person who
gave you the reward from the last quest will offer you the next quest.

11d. Advanced Skills Training
Once you have a Primary and Secondary profession, there will be new
quests available to you from the Trainer from your Primary profession.
To refresh your memory, the trainers are as follows:
Warrior- Headmaster Zhan
Assassin- Headmaster Lee
Monk- Headmaster Amara
Ranger- Headmaster Greico
Necromancer- Headmaster Kuju
Elementalist- Headmaster Vhang
Mesmer- Headmaster Kaa
Ritualist- Headmaster Quin
Based on your primary profession the trainer will give you a quest called
<Your Profession Name Here> Insingia. YOu will have to go to the dojo and
complete quests teaching various skills. If you wait until around level
10 to do these quests, they are pathetically easy. Each quest Ng offers
has the same reward: 500xp, 50g. Below is the list of quests you could be
offered. The reward for all the Insingia quests is the same. 2500xp, 75g,
and a Monastery Credit.
Quest List:
Advanced Defense Techniques (All) (Weng Gha)
Condtion Removal (Monk, Necro, Ritualist) (Weng Gha)
Skill Chanting (All) (Sujun)
Defense Against Hexes (Mesmer, Monk) (Lo Sha)
Disruption (Elementalist, Monk, Ranger, Mesmer, Ritualist) (Talon)
Snaring Course (Assassin, Ranger, Warrior, Ranger) (Kai Ying)
Disenchantment Course (Assassin, Memser, Necromancer) (Mei Ling)
Basically all of these quests work the same. Talk to Ng, and request
access to the Dojo. Once inside talk to the NPC listed above twice
to start the quest. Most involve killing one or more NPCs. All NPCs are
level 10. To defeat one, only 50% of their health must be gone. When
their health bar turns green they are defeated. End each quest by talking
to the same NPC to talked to start, and return to Ng for your reward.
Before each quest Ng will give you skills based on your primary and
secondary class. Equip them if you wish. If you are over level 10
before trying these, its so easy it does not matter what you bring
along skill wise. When done with Ng return your trainer for the
reward and a new quest based on Primary profession.
Warrior: The Kaguchi Brothers
Monk: Port of Plague
Elementalist: The Stone of the Elements
Necromancer: Old Friends, Dark Times
Mesmer: The Box of Illusions
Ritualist: Power Surge
Assassin: Cleansing the Steel
Ranger: The Red Frog
The reward for all the above quests (obviously you can only complete
one) is 2500xp, 100g, and a weapon or armor specific to your class.
The requirement on the item will always be 4.
===============================================================================
Quest Name: The Kaguchi Brothers

west and find the 2 Kaguchi Brother among the Crimson. There are arond
10 Crimson around and they will all attack you. A warrior over level
10 with a monk hench backing them will be fine. Ignore the Crimson
totally and attack the brothers. Once they are defeated map back to
