First of all, quit whining, lag hits everyone regardless of whether or not you're a survivor. Second, 40 hours is nothing compared to level 90+'s in diablo 2 that die to server lag, so you can whine all you want. Third, get a life, as people shouldn't feel too much sympathy for someone who has nothing to do and plays 6 hours a day for a whole week. Close please.

Well... reading that makes me happy that the three times I did die aiming for survivor were my own stupid fault.

Yup, I know the feeling of loosing the title, it sux and after a while, you start to wonder if the title is worth it at all.

And yeah, you are restricted in your play style, which, I guess, was one of the challenges. How much help can I be to my team with 5 skills rather than 6 skills? (1 res and 2 self-protection skills leaving 5 damage skills)

Good luck with it if you're trying for it again.

I'm surprised so many people even get to the first level.

I think of the phrase "I'm going to get the Survivor title" somewhere along the same lines as "I'm going to be an astronaut when I grow up". As for 3rd level Survivor... thats more along the lines of "I'm going to be the first man on Pluto" ..... coming from a woman.
Its just not something I could ever achieve. I wouldn't even try it.

I only recently got over 1000 deaths with my assassin. I wouldn't mind getting some sort of title for that. Perhaps I could get "Kamikaze" as my title if I die 10,000 times.... =P

To SotiCoto: There was actually a guy who achieved 1 million deaths, I think. It was a monk and, wow, that guy deserves a title.

To the OP: : ( I'm sorry. Sucks much. I had a Dervish and I was going for R3 Survivor. I boosted him with awesome gear and when I died (rather not say how) I just...couldn't bear to see him. He was a failure, in my eyes.

Just realized that that last sentance makes me sound like a bad father...

Maximumraver · Jan 24, 2007, 05:16 PM // 17:16

My Mesmer had 593K xp... and was still going for legendary survivor... until today... I was @ about 80% Health, Dervish boss does two hits on me... 100+ from the first hit 241 from the second, i die, and i'm sad

there goes 60 hours...

ah well... sh*t happens i guess

This forum needs a legendary survivor graveyard like the old diabloii.net forums used to have for hardcore toons.

Sorry for your loss

I know the feeling of dying right after you've gotten survivor. I had just barely gotten survivor 1 when a friend was helping me cap some of the derv avatars and I wasn't really ready for the horde of troops that came at me and killed me in 2 seconds.

If you are playing for survivor and you see the first signs of lag, usually the best option is to quit playing that character for a bit.

My only question is 'How can you be sure it was ANet's fault?' Unless you live right next door to their servers and share the same ISP, your connection to the servers goes through atleast 3 computers, your ISP's, 1 or more between your ISP and ANets servers, and atleast 1 on ANets end that directs the packest to the right machine in their server farm. You say it's ANets fault, I say it's more likely steps 1 or 2.

my survivor title is gone....

CagedinSanity · Jan 24, 2007, 06:29 PM // 18:29

You have the first tier, that's an accomplishment in itself. Quit your whining, seriously. It's not the end of the world.
You have two titles even, there's something even I haven't been able to do on any character in 6 months. BE HAPPY.

Threads about losing survivor are pointless, and don't belong in riverside.
