You won't lose money on that run
This is far faster and only takes about 5k to set up with a minor vigor... Maybe less...

Kilroy's doesn't guarantee you an easy LS title farm - if the timer reaches 0 you die. If you lag out, you can die.

That said, Kilroy's and HM snow worm farming are viable EotN LS title farming spots. Particularly the latter as the lvl 28 snow worms have no ranged attacks. RezDogg posted a thread about this, i'll find some time this week to add these and other LS farming spots.

I got to 514k xp and then the first two groups of 3 Jades spawned as a single group of 6 Jades. They took turns, attacking me and then running away to heal as the others attacked me. Eventually Symbiosis went down (as I had not been paying due attention) and I lost the title in the blink of an eye. I was impressed at how quickly I got up to 514k xp though, so I'll be remaking the character to try for it again!

Thanks for the awesome guide!

i just made some calculations, i have found out it can be done within 8 hours.
i have calculated this, 1 jade at hm give 300xp without scrolls, in one run u can kill around 40 jades. thats within a time limit of 10 minutes. thats 12k xp in 10 minutes. So i you are using scrolls that mean u get 36k every 10 minutes.

now the calculations starts assume u have the money and buy a lot of scrolls of lightbringers 3x xp.
300*3*40=36.000 xp
1337/36=37.2 runs
37.2x10=372 minutes
372/60=6.2 hours.
lets say u need at least 1.30 hours too get to the mainland and some hero's be4 u can start farming.
all together u will be done in within 8 hours u will have lets say 10 minutes too fool around xD

Ow yeah the money part now xD:
37.2 runs , i will make it 38
1 scroll cost now? 2.5~3k?
38*2.5= 95k gold
38*3= 114k gold



Guess u can almost buy this title, the power of calculations

btw i tried it and it works, althoug i didnt made it too the end i died sigh...

IF the hero does not maintain the bonds on you, that obviously means you are not disabling the skills.

I also use a wireless keyboard so that is not the reason, are you sure you are holding down the "SHIFT" button and clicking the heroes skills? (You hold shift and don't let go, then click the hero skill it will have a red cross over the skill, once u see the cross let go of the shift button and repeat for the rest of the skills).

Wireless keyboard shouldn't make a difference. If vueytt's suggestion doesn't work (I would highly recommend using the left shift), shift might be bound improperly... difficult to tell if that's the case.

Best bet is to make two tests:
  1. Try typing in something (anything) into the chat box while holding left shift. If it comes out in all caps, good. If not, there's a bigger problem. In that case, try it in something other than Guild Wars (Notepad or Microsoft Word would be ideal).
  2. Hit f11, go to "controls", pick anything, click where you can assign a new hotkey (middle- to lower-left part of the screen), and hit left shift. If it complains that it's already assigned to suppress action or some such, good.

Report back with information for more instructions!

I do the easy run with that one scroll where you have to kill an enemy every 30 seconds. The only problem I'm having is that my scroll usually expires just before I kill a jade in the second group...Anyone have any tips to help me out so I can maximize the experience I get in each run?

Oh yeah, I'm running a single bonder

Run in aggro 2 groups, beware tho whilst pulling the second group you will lose the symbiosis. Aggro the second group then quickly run in the symbiosis range keeping protective spirit + spirit bond on you at all times.

Hmmm well I've decided that if I do die, no way I'm restarting because I hate this grind...

Your method sounds awfully risky and I'm being a huge pansy in doing this farm , so I guess I'll just stick with the scrolls that give 175%. Thanks for the help though

Thanks guys, apparently, i had to go into controls to find that the supress action hotkey was deleted, so easy but frustrating fix.

Thanks again

Not having suppress action bound stops you from disabling hero skills? Didn't know that. Thanks.

I've sort of come up with my own setup using similar skills here. basically i have two bonders and I myself use VwK. My only problem is when I get to the boss group, that lousy ritualist keeps healing. I can manage to kill everyone but the rit and the boss. Any suggestions? Yes, I am using both holy wrath and retribution.
