I did it for the titles (Got my r3 KoaBD from L. Vanquisher. ) and the drops helped just a tad.

I wanted legendary vanquisher.

Switch button in head, brain on zero. Use fast team setup (raybagon) and use cons to save time.

After each area tell yourself:
- I will never have to do this area again

Take breaks at regular times to prevent throwing pc through window.

Titles aren't enough of a motivation for me, I just can't stand doing it solo... if only there was a way to find teams for that stuff it would be completely different.

I breakup the boredom by alternating campaigns and target. That way I don't spend day after day killing the same foes. One day a mission in Tyria and a vanquish in Nightfall, the next day a dungeon in EotN and a vanquish in Factions.

Why am I doing it? Because, I can. It gives me a sense of satisfaction to see more areas completed.

Used to do them because the Guild did them. Then GW died and so I stopped. I do a VQ once in a blue moon but that is just because either I get bored or a friend wants to play.

Vanquishes are fun first, title second.

Missions were title....and that's it. They sucked.

i did legendary vanquisher because i was tired of noobs having this title and me not having it when i am an extremely exp'ed player. to this very day i don't give a damn about titles but i juat HATE the fact when someone lesser than my own skills has something i do not have. anyways, this isn't to be worried about anymore as i have 35 maxed title atm (only missing cursed by fate (at 269,652 points) and max chest (at 6,246 chests) and once i max those 2 i will have obtained every "obtainable" maxed title in GW.

w00t e-peen? :>

I find little motivation to go through that again after making two gwamm chars. Slowly farming luxon faction is what I do now.

Titles are the worst thing to happen in this game. If the game is going to literally support e-peen I at least demand that there is some indicator on how hard a title is so R10 Luxons/Kurzicks can't continually spam how great they are while they run there flare warrior builds.

Why do the hard mode stuff? Hmmm...

Well, I guess I'm doing the whole "title thing" for the fame and fortune. But ultimately, I'm in it for the hot chicks that flock around GWAMMS.
