Much of the grind to hit 16 can be avoided. Some prefer to start deathleveling at 14 instead of grinding up to 16 by doing boss runs.

I **NEVER** SAID ANYTHING ABOUT TITLE BUYING = GOLD BUYING, please DO NOT put words in my mouth I didn't say.

LDoA is not a title that can be done by your friend over a weekend, not even every day for a week, or even every day for a month.

And very good luck in finding an account for sale that has LDoA on it, number 1 it's against A-nets TOS, 2) you won't find many (if any) accounts for sale.

LDoA and Survivor on the same toon can't be done without breaking A-net's TOS. When it was first introduced, there were a couple of exploits including the Guild Hall glitch, that allowed some tomes into pre. A-net has said anyone found with items or skills that shouldn't be in pre will be asked to delete the items or move to post.

There was another bug that involved a quest reward and having a full inventory, both these have now been fixed and are no longer exploitable.

I'm saying title buying doesn't have to be paying a certain amount for xx points/missions/whatever, it can be paying someone to play for the 800 some hours needed to get the title. Since it's obviously not going to be cheap the service isn't offered and not a lot of people are willing to pay however much someone would want for an account with ldoa on it. Doesn't mean it can't or hasn't happened and as for the TOS, it doesn't seem to be doing much good with gold selling.

TH was the last title my monk needed for GWAMM. I managed to max it with four months of 90 chests a day. Worst grind ever, but conversations on Vent and Skype helped kill the boredom. Ele got GWAMM by maxing Lucky, Wisdom and Kurzick. I spiked all three titles but Wisdom failed to show up. Guess the Attention-wh0re Force wasn't strong enough in me. QQ

It doesn't matter if the method used for payment is with legal in-game gold or illegal real-world money.

To get a LDoA title, you have to be in control over the character, and it is pretty much done solo.

So in other words, what you're suggesting is that people are going to voluntarily give out their account information (i.e., login ID and password) to a stranger, because nothing bad could possibly happen with that arrangement. What else are you going to suggest? When you run out of storage space, you can pay a stranger to hold your stacks of ecto for you?

IMHO Unlucky is is awhole lot difficult than GTH. To summarise wiki even with lucky weekends and nine rings the order of completion for these titiles would be GTH then Lucky then Unlucky.

Having spent too much time in PvE, the title that I can respect is Champion. Those guys know so much more about the game than I do.

Hmm... I agree, but only at rank 4+. Too many champ point buyers in guilds like Team Evercape stand in Kamadan and boast their bought title (and cape ) for the world to see.

Besides, GMTH can't be greater then GWAMM because if you have GWAMM most chances are that you also have GMTH...

Seeing as LDoA would cost more than several stacks of ecto I'm pretty sure they have more to gain then deleting a couple of your characters, or how bout this transfer your stuff to another account while the person's doing the work, insane right?

With so many people already having several accounts and being able to get another one for 10$ I can't see how it's a problem. Worst thing that could happen is your toons are deleted, you cant lose your account cause the password can be easily changed and it's a risk people would be willing to take just like the risk of being banned and losing your ecto stacks from buying gold.

In the end GWAMM takes 1600+ hours to get while LDoA takes 700-900 hours most of which is afk, they're both grind and neither requires "skill" and honestly how can you respect something that all you really have to do is follow a simple guide to accomplish.
