Sin = Cantha. Cantha = easy to main island if you do all the secondary profession quests (which you should, as a survivor). From there, just 600 the jade brotherhood. It'll be like 10k max for your first set of armor, which you should be able to get just by doing the plot. :P (My new mesmer's not going to open storage until he loses or gains r3 survivor, except to get equipment for the 600ing. :P)

Kitty RawR: Maybe it's just me loving my SoJ :P

I haven't played GW for a couple of months but started again yesterday. I've just got my Rit to the The Marketplace to start the run and will post the vid shortly. I'll pull my finger out and add the rest of the videos in the next few weeks, Para i can post in a couple of days.

I haven't used the Para build in awhile, but i think i was using GftE in conjunction with a Scythe to power Blazing Finale for constant burning. Honesty, you could just stand there and renew Spirit Bond, it's just a bit more fun to stick a few offensive skills on the bar.

Stick to the Short run with a Para, i got creamed by the Mesmer's interrupts due to lag on the Medium run

I used to farm the first 6 Jades with a 55 for gold runes. There's nothing original about the location, it was posted long ago. Mickey gave me the idea that it could be used for the LS title in that thread, so i set out to test it.

In the original version of the guide i mentioned the build is based on the old 600 Troll Farmer (when SB could be kept up indefinitely) and the 600/Smite UW duo - i make no claim to that either. I figured that was obvious. The reference was removed due to excessive wordiness - the original guide disappeared because it exceeded a revised post character limit.

What i did was vary the skills and expand upon them to include up to 3 bonders for my own amusement more than anything. I just wanted to see how high i could push my HP The build worked, so i posted a guide, added templates for all X/Mo classes, took some videos and explored beyond the 6 Jade Knight rune run.

I'm not after recognition, it's my small contribution to give back to the community. If the guide helps someone get the LS title, that's great...happy to help. If you don't like it....meh. I've got better things to do with my time than worry about it.

Theres a quick and safe way for lvl 10s to 20 if you have EotN and its by quiting a quest then repeat involving some knucklers
Also this questing area is a great place to farm for ale and honeycombs ,if you are in no rush to get legendary survivor,for sugar and drunk titles

Yeah there's a couple of spots in GW:EN that are great for XP farming. And with lower level toon access to EotN included in the latest update, it should be easier than ever to farm the LS title. It's worth heading to Eye of the North just to pick up the level 20 heroes - 4 or 5 are available within 10-15 minutes of entering the Far Shiverpeaks.

I reached Legendary Survivor last week with the help of this guide.

22 hours 11 minutes. That includes at least three hours of idling and lots of chatting in alliance chat though.

Would never have started if I hadn't remembered seeing this guide when it was first made. So, thanks a lot.

It's a pretty idiot-proof farm if you have any experience with 600/smite. I'd suggest getting said experience before trying it out on a survivor next time.
