Guild Wars guide section will help you. Cant afford anything yet you see so many things you want? Well one guide we offer is how to do chest runs. The best character for running in FoW is Warrior/Monk. The high level of armor u have along with the added ability to self heal out does any other character combination. Chests in FoW spawn randomly, so it is impossible for anyone to tell you where they will be and the keys that you will need are obsidian Keys (1.5k from merchant).. 4 will be enough usually. Note: a good trick is to buy keys from other players that don’t need them (they only get 750g each from merchant, so picking them up for as little as 800g can be done Very cheaply) A Basic Skill Set u will need compiles of:

Charge {E}
Sprint
Balanced Stance
Shields Up
Healing Signet
Endure Pain
Healing breeze
Rebirth

Attribs:

Max out your Tactics and get your heal area to about 100hp, use the rest for strength to increase the sprint time.

Here is an example of Guild Wars Guide GW Guides Information submitted by our community.  (Note this information is not valid and should be considered nerfed)

Anyone who has done the quest "The Deserters" in the far, far north of Beacon's Perch knows that it is a very long irritating walk, and that there are a few chests near the deserters which have some items in them. Most people run this quest with a full party and do not realize exactly what they are missing out on.

These chests, when run solo, USED TO have a tendency to pop (between the four) 1-2 Rare, 1-2 Purple, and 1-4 Blue weapons EACH RUN. However, as of the update on Wednesday, June 29 2005, the run has been nerfed but is still good for its original purpose. Now a run can yeild anything from one blue, to 2 purples and a few blues. I have yet to see a gold in ten runs since the update. Anyone with half a brain can realize that farming these chests would yeild a whole lot of weapon upgrades either for selling, or just for unlocking on your account. Well damn, that sucks, because it's such a long walk to those chests, and if you finished the quest, well crap, you'll never see them again.

Well, I have a solution, and instructions follow.

Requirements:

* Location Requirements:
o Ice Tooth Cave
o Beacon's Perch (to get the quest)
* Quest Requirements:
o You must have the quest "The Deserters" obtained from Master Saberlin in Beacon's Perch UNFINISHED.
o Before you can get this quest from Master Saberlin, you must first do the stupid "Feed Joe" quest in which you have to get a juniper steak and feed it to that dude's devourer outside Beacon's Perch.
* Character Requirements:
First I should mention that I have thought of these builds at the absolute MINIMAL level (2 or 3) that you could do this run at due to the fact that most characters in PvE have already completed the above quest, and thus might create a new character specifically for doing this.
o W/Mo:
The typical warrior monk is good for this build because of their inherently massive armor bonus and abilities to sprint, as well as the ability to heal.
o W/R:
Probably the best build for this specific run at low levels as you will already have lightning reflexes, dodge, and sprint, as well as healing signet, troll unguent, and the massive armor of a warrior.
o R/W:
Basically the same as the above build, just less armor and the ability for more expertise and a greater chance of dodging using skills like escape, lightning reflexes, dodge, and such. Rangers have the widest range of running skills.


Instructions:

1. Step one:
The first thing you need to do is get your character to Ice Tooth Cave and Beacon's Perch and get the quest "The Deserters" from Master Saberlin. If you have already completed the quest with that character, well tough knittings, because you can't do this. However, it can be done with an absolute minimum character using the builds mentioned above if you get so ansy to create a character specifically for this purpose. Once you do that, all you have to do is get a buddy to run you from Ascalon to Beacon's Perch. A good runner can do that in about 30 minutes.
2. Step Two:
Now that you have the quest, take your character to Ice Tooth Cave and walk outside the entrance to this spot:

and have the minotaurs hand your arse back to you on a platter (that means DIE!) This makes our journey much shorter, because when you are resurrected, you end up right here:

where you will sometimes be promptly attacked by some Shiverpeak Warriors. No big deal, just run to the zone directly to the south as soon as you get resurrected.
3. Step Three:
Now you are so close to the chests you can almost smell the Shiverpeak Pine they are made of. This is the path you now need to follow, and this can be the tricky part.

There is a group of three Shiverpeak Warriors and one Shiverpeak Bowmaster which, if you are doing this with a higher level character, can be quickly slaughtered. Lower level characters can sprint/dodge past and wait where the above image shows.
From here you have two options:
* The first option is to wait here for a few seconds, avoiding detection by both groups of enemies. The Deserters will eventually be attacked by Shiverpeak Warriors that are to the Southwest, and their focus will be completely on them, at which point you can run and loot the chests with nearly no fear of being attacked.
* Option two, and sometimes what is called "Plan B" (due to problems that you can run into) is sometimes dangerous, but sometimes absolutely necessary. You can lead the first group of Shiverpeak Warriors into the group of Deserters and they will attack each other, leaving you free to loot the chests unbothered. This may also become the only option when you are detected by one group or the other and must flee or force them to attack each other.
The reason that this is dangerous is that sometimes the group of Shiverpeak Warriors will KILL the group of Deserters, and will COMPLETE THE QUEST for you! This sucks, because now you can't farm these chests anymore. If it looks like they are winning, it's probably a good idea to map out of there. The same thing can happen if too many Shiverpeak start attacking from the Southwest, but it is much more rare.
Here is a small idea of what you will be seeing while looting the chests and the area where they are located at:
4. Step Five:
After you loot all those chests, run all the way back through those red dots straight through the zone you just came in from. Rinse and repeat as much as you would like. I like to take the time after zoning back into the chest area to identify the loot from the previous run to see what kind of upgrades I ended up with =]



Well, Good Luck and Godspeed, or whatever.

This has been resurrected from the nerf, due to Greybok's new information. Please look below to find it!

Once upon a time the deserter chest run produced alot of blue, purple and gold items from the 4 chests that appear after you take the Deserters Quest in Beacons Perch. It was nerfed so the items dropped were only whites. Well, there was a fifth chest during this mission, and it was NOT part of the quest. So it is still there and drops anywhere from 2-5 items, ranging from white, blue and purple. I also got one gold in the 10 runs I did. The items are not max damage but do contain weapon upgrades, so they can be valuable.

The easiest way to reach the area is first go to Beacons and get the quest, then make your way to ice tooth caves. Exit the caves and let the minotaurs kill you. You will spawn right beside the exit to Delmidor Bowl. Take that exit and go to the right. Run past the monsters and run along the right hillside, holding down the alt key to see the chest. Open, get items and run back to the exit, go out and then back in. Here are a couple pics.
