Curse

Yesterday or the day before, I made a Necro with the intention of it replacing my current necro. Originally(month or two ago) I was gonna do LDoA for a title my account doesn't have yet. Lost interest in that so decided perhaps another survivor. Tried a few builds with my current nec then friend helped me make one for it(ill write it out further down). So I got myself into doing survivor. Hit 476k exp with almost 7 hours played and died. Now I'm left with restarting taking the hit of a leet nec tome and a leet sin tome plus armor and time or just continuing. I don't need survivor for my HoM. Rit has r1, mes r2 and ele is r3.

Do you think I should restart?

If I do restart I will probably Vaettir farm at 42-48k exp in 5 mins. Would you suggest anywhere else that is as fast?

Build
*Deadly Paradox
*Shadow Form
*Shroud of Distress
*Way of Perfection
*Way of the Assassin
*Suffering
*Desecrate Enchantments
*Signet of Corruption

If you can think of any suggestions for the build, please speak up.

I do not believe I am against any rules as I'm not asking for a build, However asking if I should try elsewhere may be wrong and this may be in the wrong section. If so I will kindly fix any problems within my power.
Thank you for your time

Not worth it imo if you already have it for your HoM and this isn't going to be your main character.

If you are correct at 42-48kxp in 5 minutes (not saying ur not, it just seems alot), then ur looking at about 300k xp/hour. If thats the case 5 hours to leg surv + probably another 3 to get it to the farm.

Id say restart, especially since ur only looking at about 20k lost due to leet necro and sin tome, and armor. Unless ur armor was elite, then its a bit more.

My other suggestion would be ignore the leet necro tome, ur using shadow form so its not needed until after u get leg surv. Sin tomes are like 2-3k, and armor u can get for give or take 7k.

If you are not worried bout costs...buying Kath Hammers are by far the fastest way to LS 3....total costs if u buy at 2k per (buy in vlox) ends up being around 90k after rewards. It is possible to obtain this title in a matter of hours on a brand new character.

Vaettirs give 300 exp in HM solo, 250% scroll which is what i used for part of mesmer and all of ele puts you at 700 exp per kill and with LB scrolls it would be 900, assuming math is nice and there is no exp cap. 60 mobs x700=42000. And I guess i was a bit slow or something by thinking LB scroll would give an extra 100 exp per kill so 6k after the 60, but it turns out that 900(300 basex3) would be 54k exp, hmmm i may do that. The build typically takes 5 mins, thats my /age when i start running towards gate and you only have to run to the vaettirs the first time. 420,000 exp an hour with 6 min runs for niceness, errors, running to gate and 540,000/hour with LB. total time from ~20-r3 would be about 2 hours 15 mins.

I guess ill go remake my nec from all this talking about it. I wonder how low of a /age i can get once r3.

There is an EXP cap @ 7x base experience, but with HM (1.5x) & LB Scrolls (3x) you're only at 4.5x experience so you're fine

Wtf.
It's really not hard.
You make a Nightfall character, do the first few quests, and then go to EotN and do midget punch.
Bring henchmen with you at all times.

If you still can't do it, I don't even know what to say.
It's like, the easiest title to get since EotN came out.

Ok so veattrs are nice, but look what happened to you last time. You were doing something you thought was safe, and something happened to end it. Kath Hammers will NEVER kill you, unless you try to swallow them or something.

This, kath hammers are 2k and you get 1500 for the reward so its gonna cost you like 80k to max the title and have no stress or boredom of the aforementioned midget punch or vaetirs

"Midget Punching" (I love the name!) is by far the easiest route. I got L3 on my para in roughly 8 hours. You can knock the 12min HM run at Kilroys down to 7-8 minutes using rock candy. Plus you can plow through the final mob like it were normal mode. But since you already have a L3 Survior, this is all for $h!% and giggles right?

Pretty much, was thinking of going for r1 KoaBD. Meh havent restarted yet so prob won't. Was trying to be DoA ready for the weekend.

I'm neurotic as all get out.

That's the conclusion I've come to from the fact that I've felt compelled to do legendary survivor on around ten characters. Kilroy was the method for all of them. He and I have spent way too much time together...

I'd say if cost isn't an option, definitely opt for the hammer route. If you'd like to work on other titles at the same time, then Kilroy's has the advantage of a locked chest on every run, plus alcohol drops from the dungeon chest. Using sweets while doing the run is just icing on the cake (pun intended).

Using that build bear in mind that damage from Desecrate will be cap'd at ~21
