30th Title - Guild Wars Forums

Nature Loves Me · Sep 07, 2010, 02:07 AM // 02:07

I've looked at it, and it seems like I'll be stuck at 29 titles unless I do some MAJOR grinding. This was my 2nd character and is my main, but I never knew about survivor back then so I never got it. When I reach 29, I'll have all the Missions/VQ's/EoTN Titles/SKills/Mapping/LB/SS/Sweet/Drunk/Party titles complete.

The only way I could get 30 is if I do some intense Luxon grinding, get 90M for Zaishen title, spend countless hours buying golds, or some of the other seemingly impossible titles. My best bet seems to be Luxon grinding

Do any of you know the best/least boring way to get it maxed besides AB? With heroes/henchmen that is. I don't want to have to depend on the mood of other people. I really don't want to do anything that only gives like 1K faction per run, even if the run is fast, it'd get way too repetitive and drive me crazy.

I've checked the wiki, but it didn't really give me any viable (to me) suggestions.

Well, GL maxing luxon with h/h, you could vq areas, but I would MQSC for it. 10k faction in 10 minutes usually. Team build is up on PvXwiki(a). I've only seen Monkway groups forming, never actually seen a Ritway team.

Carboplatin · Sep 07, 2010, 02:59 AM // 02:59

i find myself JQ'ing and FA'ing more than anything else, they are more enjoyable now that most of the bots are gone. maybe give those a try?

Its more fun that vanquishing over and over again.

Arsalan · Sep 07, 2010, 03:04 AM // 03:04

Join either a Luxon or Kurzick FFF alliance. There are alliances that do FFF all day long. You'll have maxed the title in a few weeks if you keep at it in those alliances.

With the right conditions (Double VQ weekend) you can easily do your Luxon. While it requires a fair amount of grinding, it's really easy. I donated over 3M which counted as over 6M towards my title in one weekend, that's also prior to 600/Smite update, but what I am getting at is if your in the right guild, with the right people it's rather painless.

X Ghoul · Sep 07, 2010, 04:27 AM // 04:27

Join one of those high lux faction guilds, they do msqc all the time and make runs last a constant 7-8mins

Imevil · Sep 07, 2010, 05:33 AM // 05:33

Go for luxon, is the easiest and the cheapest tite amongst all you have left. I recommand doing JQ /MQsc and in a month or two you'll get it max. Good luck.

Masmar · Sep 07, 2010, 06:26 AM // 06:26

luxon is ftw tbh, even if you dont wanna grind it out in mqsc, just one or two VQs of a zone (i liked boreas) a day will get you going well

Aycee · Sep 07, 2010, 06:43 AM // 06:43

Doing MQSC is they way to go. I had R7 after about 5 hours through 2 days. Join EviL they're a really good guild and the alliance normally has a group forming whenever you feel like doing some runs.

SkekSister · Sep 07, 2010, 08:17 AM // 08:17

Wisdom is fastest. I know it may not seem so, but you can pick up unids fairly easy. I was stuck with the same probelm as you - 29 titles, wth to do for 30? .. I started Kurz and Wisdom at the same time and had wisdom 6 months ago, while I still have half a mill Kurz to go.

A few tips for buying unids -

Hit Boreal and ask a few folks chest running if you can buy their unids.
Hang in Rata sum on an event weekend and buy from Raptor farmers.
Hang in Longeyes on the same weekend and ask the Vaettir farmers the same thing.
Anyone who sells you a decent amount of unids is worth adding to your friends list for future contact.
The Chinese farmers generally sell unids in LA US D1 since they all farm outta Bergen Hot Springs with proph accounts.

2 weekends of playing 20 hours DTSC during double Faction rewards made me complete the Kurzick title. I'd rather lock myself up for a few days and be done with it than having to force myself to do 1 hour of farming every day for 6 months.

Dzjudz · Sep 07, 2010, 11:26 AM // 11:26

Kurzick or Luxon is definitely the easiest (and cheapest) and can be done within a couple of weeks of true grinding.

*Darcy* · Sep 07, 2010, 01:50 PM // 13:50

I'm working on my Luxon title now, donating at least 30k a day. I'm vanquishing, doing Zaishen stuff, playing some JQ and just generally using all my characters so it doesn't get too boring. Luckily the faction titles are account wide, so I'm not compelled to use the same character to do the same stuff everyday.

Decide how soon you want to complete the title, then figure out what you need to donate on a daily basis. If you stretch it out, it won't consume as much time per day.

falcon68 · Sep 07, 2010, 02:13 PM // 14:13

You can vanquish Mount Qinkai with h/h in 19-21 minutes for about 12k faction per run. Talk to the NPC in the middle of the zone to activate the quest Return of the Yeti which spawns an extra boss in the yeti cave. I've had fun doing this run, changing up hero builds and trying new routes to make the run faster.

Skyy High · Sep 07, 2010, 03:09 PM // 15:09

Same predicament. I tried Kurz, can't be arsed to go all the way. Chest running gets you (un)lucky points surprisingly quickly, though, so I've decided to focus on that and hopefully get enough that 9 rings can finish it off next time that rolls around.

Quaker · Sep 07, 2010, 03:20 PM // 15:20

Personally, I've been "stuck" at 26 titles for over a year - and frankly Scarlett, I don't give a dam.

I couldn't even be bothered to get sweettooth, or drunkard, let alone waste my life grinding for Luxon/Kurzick - for some useless gew-gaw in GW2.

Just curious, but Bergen Hot Springs is a pretty early area. Exactly what do you farm for when you're around Bergen Hot Springs?
