Guide updated with videos of modern tactics. I won't be writing up a detailed walkthrough as I don't have time. But fortunately, a picture is worth a thousand words, and videos are just lots of pictures, so these videos should do the trick for anyone who wants to learn this.
For some reason, I can't change the title. If any mod/admin can change it to the following or something similar, that would be dope: "Nightfall Rush Guide - 5 Accts From Kourna to Abaddon in 2.5 Hours"
I am no longer offering campaign rush services to the public at this time. If you are a previous customer of mine, please reach out to me on discord for my current menu of services.
Interested in running yourself through Nightfall? Here's a document I'm working on with some skips and dialogs: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1A1…dit?usp=sharing
Please close, thank you.
Back up and running after some computer issues. Now offering the Sunspear farming skip as a standalone service as well as a variety of other niche runs.
Hey, i want the Factions Rush.
Hey, hope you saw the update to my post. Can't run at the moment due to technical issues.
Now offering EotN campaign rush. Up to 5 accounts at once.
Yo yo yo, I'm Asdf Trash Runner, the fastest trash you've ever. I started running in early 2024, and over the last year I have:
I have made lots of imaginary video game money from these services, far more than I ever imagined possible just a year ago. Even Osiris is jealous of my immense wealth. And I had lots of fun developing these builds and tactics. The theorycrafting, testing, and refining are what make Guild Wars so alluring to me. It was very enjoyable to rush Nightfall and EotN when there was still optimization to be done... but now I no longer see room for improvement. I've grown quite bored, and perhaps it is a temporary feeling, but I want each rush to be done as soon as I start it. So I've decided it is time to close this thread.
Yo sup, I'm Asdf Trash Runner, the fastest trash you've ever seen. I started running when I returned to Guild Wars in early 2024. After I learned all the outpost runs as well as the Factions rush, I started to realize that there was a market for rushing the Nightfall campaign; while a Desolation/Vabbi tour definitely speeds up the campaign, some customers of mine were willing to pay for a full carry through all of the quests and missions. And so I got to work studying Nightfall, and after a few months I had developed tactics for rushing 5 accounts through the campaign from Yohlon Haven to Abaddon in about 2.5 hours (the title of this thread says 2 hours, and for some reason I can't change the title so just pretend it doesn't say that 
).
I mainly created this guide to help other runners who want to offer this service. That said, you should be an experienced runner before offering this rush. Be experienced in the Kourna/Desolation/Vabbi tour and also be able to do the Factions rush (Kaineng Center to Divine Path) in less than an hour. Here's a great resource for beginner runners: Relative Velocity's beginner guide to running
Here's a run I recorded in May of 2025. Be sure to read the descriptions for some notes. It is not a perfect run, and there are some small changes here and there that I'm thinking about making.
In the rush, I employ a tech that I call cutscene strats:
This tech allows for the customer to simply take primary quests, twiddle their thumbs, and then accept the reward. It is applicable to most primary quests after Consulate Docks. Read the video description for an in-depth explanation. Cutscene strats require an alt account. I use cutscene strats even for very simple quests because I want the customer to do as little work as possible (I want the rush to be as easy for them as possible, and frankly the run is faster when the customer has less to do).
This rush uses anywhere from 75-100e (June 2024 prices) worth of consets, PCons, summoning stones (mainly Guards), and sometimes seals. With the amount people are willing to pay for this rush, you should absolutely be using these wherever they make sense, and often they are required in order for the builds to function as intended. When you are playing in NM with cons up, enemy AI is very "timid" due to the speed boost from the BU. Additionally, you have significant damage reduction to the armor. Therefore, when you have cons up there are a lot of aggressive moves that you and your heroes can get away with in order to complete missions quickly and you can have a team comp that lacks essentially any prot.
Still offering this, but see my new thread for all running services
Hey everyone!
I'm offering a Nightfall campaign rush service starting from Consulate Docks. I can finish the campaign from there in 2 hours - 2 hours 15 minutes. It's handy if you want to get a character to DoA, unlock HM, get Primeval armor, and/or recruit Razah.
This is not an AFK service. There will be times here and there where you can AFK, but for most of the rush you need to present to take quests and accept quest rewards. There's also one quest towards the start of the rush where you'll also need to follow the party around as we kill some enemies.
The goal of this rush is to get to the end as fast as possible. My goal is not to get masters on every mission or unlock every single outpost (I skip Camp Hojanu, Pogahn Passage, Dajkah Inlet, Nundu Bay, Yahnur Market, Mihanu Township, Basalt Grotto, Dasha Vestibule, Lair of the Forgotten, Shadow Nexus, and Gate of Nightfallen Lands).
The rush can be split into shorter parts if needed.
If you want to start the rush from a point in the campaign after Consulate Docks, I can start there too. Or if you have a Proph/Factions character, I can start from the quest Securing Champion's Dawn.
Currently charging 700e/account (or equivalent) for Consulate Docks to the end.
I can run up to three accounts at once. I have to use more cons and it's more difficult the more accounts I take, so pay per account is still the same regardless of how many accounts I'm running.
You can contact me here or in-game (IGN: Asdf Trash Runner).
And to address some questions I've received: Yes, in this rush I complete every quest and mission from Consulate Docks to the end. No secret game-breaking shortcuts, sorry.
Additionally, I offer an Istan rush for Nightfall characters. Chahbek Village -> Consulate Docks mission unlocked in under 90 minutes (maybe even under 75 minutes). Reach out for details.
Also offering most other runs and missions in the game. Ask and I can probably do it.
