let me recommend (as my 470k xp ranger who f'd up the pull in the mursaat base in ring of fire (alt-f4 didn't work this time) and apparently died) that you remember to de-pimp your heroes out before deleting your character.

i'll second getting heroes ealry. i made a prophecies ranger and after going post-searing, ran her to la with my second account and got the lvl15 heroes and al 70 armor. ascalon missions go really quick with the lvl 15s (plus they're practically 20 by the time you start getting tired of tyria and start moving to the other campaigns).

i'll be taking my next attempt at ranger out of pre-searing when i get home. i definitely recommend making a character that's the same class as your main. i did a couple of monk attempts before deciding that i'd make another ranger. even though i don't suck with monk, i do much better with ranger (which is my primary class).

I've gotten my R1 Survivor with a newly created Sin (who says Sins die a lot? ). I went to Elona as soon as I could and picked up my Heroes. With them, I went back to Cantha and coasted through a lot of high XP quests. Now, I'll play through Factions and, hopefully, get to R2.

That first post was kind of sad. If you have to get run to beacons then to droks for max armor early on, then you aren't really a survivor.

There is a difference between a survivor and a Coward.

If you wanna cheat your way to a title, go buy some unids, or pay someone to run around and get masters for you in all the missions. This is not the title for you.

I know this may seem like cheating to a lot of you, but I've made numerous attempts at this title and am finally frustrated enough to advertise.

I suffer from a bad connection and a network of four computer sapping my meager download capacity. Because of this I often lag badly, and am sometimes disconnected from the server altogether. The highest rank I've gotten alone is Indomitable, and even then I'd only barely gone past the 580k mark before a massive lag spike finished me off.

I'm looking for a partner who'd be willing to buddy me through Factions (Looking to get a Rit LS) to the point where I could either Faction Farm or continue with the campaigns or Elite Cap the rest of the way.

I'm more than willing to amply compensate the volunteer for their time and efforts. (In-game compensation of course).

If you're willing, the best character to add me under is Selk Dancer.

Thanks guys, and I hope to hear from somebody soon.

Probably the worst comment about Survivors, I completely agree with Duncan over there, and plus, there are tons of parts on the Tyrian map, if your getting run, to die at, so yes, it is a bit cowardly, but getting max armor early is key to achieveing the title.

I need some advice.
I have a para survivor at around 305k xp and in factions i'm at nahpui and in elona at moddok crevice. I'm going to go into Vabbi with her for more para elites etc but is it worth going any further into factions? from previous characters i know it gets a bit rough from then on(like tahnnaki temple with loads of afflicted mobs). so should i go any further in factions or keep going in Elona?

I mean, technically, you don't need max armor, but it helps a ton, and if you end of fighting your way to LA to get max armor, I don't see that as cowardice

Well I'm at 120k XP with my Dervish and 0 deaths... still a long ways to go though -.-

And what is the best way to get XP fast if I don't have factions? There are about 90 elite skills in Prophecies but that won't be enough. There might be another 50 that I will reach in Elona because I don't plan on going past the Desolation (wurms are so pathetically weak -.-). If each elite gives 5k XP then I'll need 267 for 1337k XP, 247 since I already have 100k XP. I'll probably get another 300k XP from missions and stuff, but then I'll still need 180 caps. I don't have enough money nor skill points for that -.-

My Paragon is at Arborstone in Cantha and has finished Tyria with Protector title. Almost to R2. That said, Cantha was still the best place for max exp. I have used special hero builds and played conservatively. I have yet to use F12 or whatever to d/c on purpose. If you are concerned about a mission, take one of your other chars thru it to get familier with it again. Also as a note, I don't play with pick up groups, but party with guildies/alliance members or my own heros and selection of hench. I love Mending Refrain! Good Luck with your title!

Its easy with paragon.

You have ranged attack and the strong armour makes you not much targeted by mobs. Right now im at 250K exp and havent had much difficulty getting there, im just doing all missions/quests in NF and Factions and cap every paragon elite, after that ill see what I do next.

I might do an AB with him as well, because it will make the title more awesome

I have survivor on my most char, The best tip - If your in an area where there is a chance you will die then have your guild screen open in a corner somwhere.

If you go below say 200 hp then click the button to travel to your guild hall, It works MUCH better then ALT+F4 or logging out. Trust me I know

dude theres something even more dumb than forgetting to remove the goodies from your heroes, listen to this guys (yes, i'm a dumbass..)

i started my necro in factions (currently its going much better im already lvl 15 will soon be rank 1) and went to Xunlai to get all my cash out (i thought i would need it for armours/etc) and then he died later for some annoying reason (oh yes it was that lvl 6 kappa that is completely overpowered immo vs lvl 4 chars) and i (in a sudden rage, it was like my 6th or 7th attempt) deleted the char.

so my 46k went with it.

46,000 Gold.

siigghhh

Edit
Is it possible to do Angury Rock (Mission) in Prophecies with a Canthan char and not do any missions before it? If not how many must be done first?

cheers (51,000 xp is no measly amount, especially considering its only for killing one lousy bastard).

Ok, good, I remember that Guild Hall exploit, I used it for one of my monks, then felt bad about cheating, so I deleted her and started again, now I am at 1 mil exp and no deaths
