I forget the exact name of the place, something like Lorner's Pass or Loren's Pass, but it's something that gets you to droknars forge or something. I read about it in PC Gamer magazine, and how experts charge 3k a run for safe passage through. ANYWHO... I've never heard of it, have you guys? I figured it's a good way for the guild to make a little moolah :)

EDIT: To Droknars from somewhere very near the beginning of the game so you don't have to spend hours getting through the missions
 
The run originates in Beacon's Perch and culminates at Droknar's Forge. People pay to be run to Droknar's because they can buy top notch armor WAY before they are supposed to. The run is supposed to be most difficult and from what I've read......the difficulty has increased with some of the recent game updates. I don't know of any guildies that can make that run. Anyone?
 
Urm... running is actually a much more expensive occupation than it looks at first glance. "Easy munny" is what you would immediately think, if all someone is doing is getting them from point A to point B...

... I have tried this with my warrior, however, and the only Run i can make successfully is from Ascalon City to Beacon's Perch. The problem is probably lack of correct skills for a running warrior (I have w/e skills, and i would need to acquire some ranger skills or something in order for a running build to work). Needless to say, any of the really expensive runs are too hard to attempt without full knowledge of the territory and what skills to bring, and I bet that run from Lornar's Pass to Droknar's Forge is a very VERRRY long one, and you can make 3k in the same amount of time playing through Thunderhead Keep a few times.
 
american speaks the truth, its a really hard run, i cant even take a party of 6 level 20's 1/3 of the way from beacons to SF
 
I've paid to be run a few times...

I've never tried it on my warrior. I have all the skills just been to lazy to learn it:) Guess I should so I can run guild mates.
 
I am a runner I am a R/W but the run to Droks Takes 2 W/Mo. A W/Mo as far as I know are the only ones that can make. I think a R/W and a W/Mo might be able to make it duel running which is the only way now.
 
Explain dual running. is it just running together and if one dies the other rezzes? First time I've heard that concept.
 
Me and my twinny lil destroyer (my actual twin is his other charry Matthias the Fighter) got a motley group together with only ONE monk out of 6 people, I healed the best I can, but we got PWNED!!!! Stupid imps. (not the people in our group, the ice imps lol)
 
This run can still be done with only 1 W/M. It is much higher percentage running 2, but one can do it even with the recent patches.

There are bottle necks where the mobs can trap a runner. One runner pulls the mobs so the other can run through then tries to run through themselves. Very neat to watch it done properly.
 
I've made the run 3 times. But I've tried dozens of times, so my success rate is terrible.
I get the feeling that I got lucky on those three runs...
