Thats what me and my friends are thinking that he did. We just need to know what location...Its a smart idea none the less.

i know one spot but its much slower than 200 per hour ( i got ~200 in 4 hours heh ) but really it's useless unless your leaving for a week heh... plus ANet has banned people before for exploiting things like this

since they are going to nerf it anyway (wonder how) here it is what u do.
u go to the gate of the nightfallen lands. grab 2 healer heroes, 2 hench heroes, a warrior hero and a paragon (or something that wont do an overwhelming amout of dmg at one time) then head out the portal. get the monster hunt from the forgotten warden and pull the torment to the res shrine. flag the heroes there and there u have it. the torment should duplicate themselves and u should have enough healing to keep ur party alive while u go do something else.
sort of a cheap way to get ur rank up, so if u dont want the satisfaction of earning the rank do this, otherwise do the quests like your suppose to.

It's an exploit. It's not a trick, it's not clever. Being in a position to just be able to go afk and rack up the points while doing nothing is exploiting (lucky/unlucky title notwithstanding as that has no effect ingame whatsoever)

I don't see that as an exploit. A cheap trick perhaps, but totally within the limits of the game.

Makes me want to go do that now >_>.

Uh, hench hero?

Also, it does indeed work as advertised. It's because when the creature does Call to Torment all your henchies and heroes stop attacking (if you are, as in this case). It's best to leave an Arm of Insanity left as the one to repeatedly kill as Barrage poses no threat to you, and their Lightning Reflexes and Troll Unguent ensure that they will spawn another monster.

Well if their playing together its much faster. None of my guildies seem into which blows so i get stuck soloing though I must say use both echos and run this LB gaze-->LB Gaze-->LB Gaze-->Spirtual Pain and 2 searing flame heros clears things quite fast.

You could never get it that fast by "cheating" which apparently gets only about 200 points per hour. Doing it the real way gets closer to 1000 points per hour, especially if you have a team full of people.

Even at 1000 points an hour...26000 points? 26 hours of Lightbringer farming?

Wow....

I just picked up after a few days of slack but farming is pretty fast if you do it outside gate of shadows... did 7.5k-12.3k in about 3 hours.

would be able to do it even faster if I had a R2+ partner *hint* *hint*

in turais procession you can agro about 3 of these creatures called tormented land and kill them. they respawn after a period of time. just get you thing from whispers dude and afk=easy title while your at school,work,whatever. when i just had 1 i was getting about 100 every 3 hours so with 3 thats 100 every hour not bad for being afk. earning points as i am at school typing. when i get home i give my henchies a bonus i take them questing

I'd be willing to join up as well. Currently r4, IGN: Farroh Beldan. The more human players you can get with Lighbringer's Gaze, the faster it goes.

if you know how to use flags well you can maintain 2 groups 4 at once and pull in 200 an hour.

200 points an hour is a lot slower than actual active farming. Then again, if you're getting points while you're asleep that work too I guess.... for a good 8 hours of sleep you get 1.6k LB points. :O

Yeah, that's pretty much the point.
