So, I need my Disruptor Badge...

I will go ahead and brace myself for the insane amount of flames and nasty looks I'm about to get.

I'm a badge collector. On my main toon, I'm sitting at 660 badges, with about 15 more that I can easily achieve. Not bad for someone who's missing half the veteran badges and a few anniversary to boot.

I also don't PvP. My badge toon, a Spines/Dark Scrapper, is perfectly capable of at least putting up a good fight (I cant imagine the defender badgers trying to get PvP badges, my heart goes out to you). However, it's not so much I can't, it's the fact I utterly hate the scene.

So, I tried a bit of cheating. I organized a few "Rep Farms" in Warburg, with mixed results. It's simply too mind numbing to get 400 rep whenever there's only 5 other people, and you're only getting 1 point per kill. It would take many a night and some very devout people.

So now, I put my -literal- reputation on the line, and ask for something so nefarious most people would grab their pitchforks, tie me up and burn me now.

I'm interested in what some people would call "PvP recipe farming." Now hold on there! Despite what you all may think, I --ONLY-- want this to get me my 400 rep badge, which will then earn me my Longbow Warden 2 Badge, which will THEN let me get my 6 healing badges -- something most non-healing toons will never get.

I have no second account, and never will. Im a casual player at heart, and in so, I just wanna get the only toon I play the most badges possible.

NOW TO MY QUESTION!

I got a friend with a self-rez toon, and I got 2 aggro auras to take care of business. What I do not have, is the information that would allow me to go overnight without logging out. I figure with 1 rep every 5 minutes, and with the knowledge that the rez wont occur at the exact 5 minute mark, I'll be generous and say I can get 10 rep every hour. This puts me at abou 80 rep in one night. Ohhh, the sweet sound.

Autoing powers obviously doesnt work. One time, while trying to get the "Time spend in Warburg" badge, I put something to weigh down the 'W' key and let my badger run into the War Wall while I went afk. Thinking that since Im moving via keystroke, It wouldn't log me. It still did.

If this question is considered an exploit, please feel free to lock this. The last thing I want is to get banned for trying to do something like this. I'm really hoping there's a legitimate answer, and not something that would interfere with the terms of service. (I know there's no literal legitimate answer when you're asking for something to cheat the system, but bare with me...) I'm not trying to do anything sneaky here. If the devs didn't want this sort of stuff taking place, they have all the power in the world to make changes to stop it. Least I tell myself that to feel less like a sleaze for trying to do it to get my badge.

I know some may not want to answer here for the fear of people abusing this "sacred art." With that knowledge, PMs are fine. I appreciate any help.

And please, do not tell me just to suck it up and PvP in RV. Just because I'm not into your pre-pubescent vulgar remarks during and after ganks, doesn't mean I'm any less of a player. I pay monthly just like you do, and I'll play how I want thank you.

Never thought of the Arena...Rep still amounts in Arena? Does it need to be Ranked? Unranked? Arena sounds like the way to go so I wont be interrupted, I just need to know if there are any special settings.

And sorry about the crude remark against some PvPers. I just came from a harrowing experience in RV, where there was nothing but ignorant remarks no matter the outcome of the battle. This seems to be the common theme in RV, so I have a very ill disposition of PvPers. This isn't a generalization as much as it is an observation after 2 weeks of constant PvP, and having to put up with high-school name-calling.

My apologies for the legitmate PvPers out there. Albeit, If I didn't take care of that scenario in my OP, I can -guarentee- someone would tell me just to go to RV. Actually, Im sure someone still will :P

I was told by someone that the Arena was nerfed so that this type of scenario wouldn't happen. Sure enough, trying it out, it looks like I didn't get any rep for any of the kills I did. Unless there was some specific setting I needed to use, and Im not sure how to make a neverending arena match.

So my buddy got on their villain and we tried the other way, in a zone. I dunno if that got nerfed too, but he said his self rez would work the first time, and then the second time would TP him to the hospital.

Anyone know about this?

I'm not a PvPer either, but I have all the PvP badges on my blue side badge toon now, partly thanks to playing on Guardian.

A friend and I helped each other get the Disruptor badge by logging on for two hours each evening over the course of about a week and a half.

We each had four lvl 30 toons we would cycle through in Warburg. My badger would kill his four toons, then we'd switch and his badger would kill my four. In this manner I think we each earned about 20 rep an hour, or 40 a night.

Was it tedious? Yeah, but if I played in windowed mode I could have another window open and play on the net while waiting for him to log his toons, which relieved the tedium a bit.

There's only one point I can think of that I don't think's been raised yet - if you defeat a player with higher rep than you, you get more rep out of it yourself.

I'm not certain on the exact numbers, but I think the other player has to be at least 20 rep above you, and you get 5 rep out of it. So in this vein, it would be quicker to get one toon to 400 rep then the next, rather than taking it in turns.

After you get above 200 it gets slow going though. Not many people have capped/near-capped rep, and those that do are people I dont team with often it seems. I know only a handful of PvPers.

best bet is to get on a team and throw down. if you don't like seeing broadcast in zone, then remove broadcast from your channel for now or set it up so that it is on it's own chat tab so you can switch to/from it when you want.

Might have to come to that, sucks though when it's not on a popular PvP server.

At any rate, no one knows about the multiple rez issue in PvP zones?

Unfortunately not. My badger is on Freedom.

That post was directed at Ironblade :P

As my location indicates, I'm on Infinity. I have toons on a number of other servers, including Virtue and Freedom, but none of them are over 25.

If we get another period of free server transfers, contact me.
