What wrong with Eco-War??Follow
People tend to have bad experiences with Eco-War, like, lots of deaths, or the rewards aren't very satisfying. 5k gil and 500-1000 EXP isn't a lot to many people.
To me, any gil and EXP, is good gil and EXP.

Actually I have Windy Eco open and really want to get rid of that damn quest. Anyone want to come do it sometime, maybe hit all 3 at once (if that's possible). How bad can it be ^^
i have one open in windy also that I wanna get rid of. Send me a tell if you're gonna get one together.

I have the windy one open as well. I usually bring my smn along with another smn because 2 Diamond Dust usually kill off the flies with no deaths as long as everyone has been sneaked.
I believe it's like any other large event. Going with a group you know and trust, can work out well, and be a fun event. Going with a pick-up group that you know nothing about, and have never worked with, often ends in death and mayhem. It gives people a bad taste of doing such events.

I had a bad experience with it. 1 WHM. 2 Tanks (that left just before we got started) and complete disorder. I ended up tanking without proper gear and got hit 3-4 times with not one healing from the WHM, I died real fast. I was close to clicking on HP.
I was the one who started ??? and of course had to click on the ??? again. Got raised clicked on the ??? and got nothing. Only myself and a Mithra died everyone else got there item.
This left a real bad taste in my mouth with some former LS members and doing any type of allience.
Since then I have changed LS to what I believe is the LS I was meant to be in and have been in a Garrison with my new LS with success and done 4 BCNM 40's with my static and had great success. I say great success even after dieing once and missing the time limit on the second one. After that we got it down and it was worth the effort.
As for Eco war......I don't know if I will ever do it again.

If you died and got raised, you must go back to the NPC at the entrance to get the ointment reapplied, then go back to touch the ??? again to get the key item for the quest.
I've done 3 Ecowarriors, and died in 2 of them. It's always fun with all the chaos and mayhem!

The only eco-war I ever do is sandy's, and I love it. It's an easy 5k. The only problem is the chaos and confusion, but that's only cause people are dumb. I can't count how many times someone's said "DO NOT TOUCH THE ???" like 10 times along the way and yet some n00b does and dies and wonders what went wrong.
In summery, only the n00bs who didn't follow the rules and the people who are inevitably allianced with said n00bs are angry at eco-war XD

I have done it a couple of times with 2 escorts and it has always been smooth. I would be happy to escort a group from Sandy if needed.
i can escort a group for sandy or windy.
i still have bastok open...

As Ed mentioned the easiest way is to take as few people as possible, use powder and oil to get to the spawn point, have an escort kill anything in that immediate area and then have the 2 or 3 smn stay sneaked and kill it. The NMs won't aggro if you are sneaked and the smn must engage before using astral flow as to avoid aggro.
Other than that I've done at least 10 successful runs with as little as 4 people. Its a nice little exp buffer at lower levels and some extra change. Also, unlike ENM, you can choose which job gets the exp. ^^

Eco-War is great! I do them as often as I can usualy. I think the key is a players patience. If you're going with strangers, people WILL act stupid. Personaly, I dont mind much. Sometimes it's really quite funny. And the exp item has helped me through a few tough spots. A few times now I've died, deleveled, and decided to just wait for the next eco-war to get the lvl back.
Anyways, if you're having troubles getting an eco-war together, just ignore the angry shouts. Usualy its someone with less patience who hates dealing with an alliance full of low levels making silly low lvl mistakes. If they really bother ya, blist em. No one needs that kind of negativity. :)
