Which title should i use my dungeon books on?
Hi I have a full version of the dungeon handbook in both NM and HM but i don't know which title it would be smartest to use it on. I plan on eventually maxing out all of them.
Right now my progress for the titles are Dwarf: 112,335 Norn: 96,998 Ebon Vangaurd: 83,137 Asuran: 76,858 For anybody that doesn't know max to the title is 160k rep and a NM book gives 40k and a HM book gives 60k. I guess my main question is if any of the reps are easier to farm than the others? Do any of them have a method faster than speedbooking? I'm on a monk so i can't really do dungeon sc's for rep. |

Well iirc you will have to use the NM book for Asuran as once it gets to 80k you cannot hand in NM books. Then personally i would put the HM book on Norn as the rest have very easy farmable options, so does Norn tbh but i prefer the others.

Norn is the easiest to farm (via the Path to Revelations quest); Followed by Dwarven which you'll get anyway by doing all dungeons in EotN in both NM and HM for your Master of the North title in your HoM.
So I'd use it on Asuran or Ebon Vanguard. Ebon Vanguard is only easy to farm at Winter's Day or April Fools, and as it is limited to just three explorable areas you aren't going to get it with your basic vanquishing duties. Asuran has more areas and (much) bigger and more populated areas for you to gather up a bit more through the vanquishing that you are going to be doing anyway (assuming you are aiming for that Legendary Master of the North at some point), but there's no fast way to farm it really; Raptor farming helps if you are into that but the gain isn't really too great on it TBH.

You're a monk so I wouldn't use it on the Asuran because you can easily play the RoJ role in SoOsc which give you and easy 1,250K Asuran points and a fair amount of cash. (http://www.gwpvx.com/Build:Team_-_SoO_Snoway)
You can also try Speedbooking with your heroes if you want to, if you do i'd suggest you add Assault on the Stronghold with it. (http://www.gwpvx.com/Archive:Team_-_Hero_Speedbook) I'd say use it on the norn since i think it's the most painful to farm, you can also use it on Vanguard but you might be able to find some Kathsc's where you can leech if you pay your (and maybe others') BU. Or you can round up some friends and do Kath Manly way.(http://www.gwpvx.com/Build:Team_-_Ka...ax_Manly_Spike) If you wait for a double rep weekend there are usually quite some people VQ'ing Sacnoth Valley (I thought it was) for roundabout ~20k Vanguard points, if im not mistaken. There are always spots open for monks ^^ I hoped this helped |

Ebon Vanguard can be done pretty easily by doing stuff for Hearts in the North (do Keiran's solo quests repeatedly), but if you have a hard time doing those you should probably spend it on Ebon Vanguard, since there are fewer opportunities to get faction for them.
Dwarven is easily done in a variety of ways. Norn has some nice farms, as do asuran, so its really just a matter of you figuring out which farms you like the least and applying the books towards that faction. |

Just pick what you find least interesting:
All are relative easy to do, it depends a bit where your interest lies. if you hate farming I would go Norn. If you don't like the heart of the north I would go ebon. if you don't like SC's I would go asuran. And if you don't like killing snowman then go for the dwarfen points. |

Hi Ryman75:
Since you have both books, its best to use the nm for the Asuran title, cuase once you reach 80k rank 8 you cannot turn in nm book for that title so since you have 76,858k on asuran, you should go for that one. About the hm one for me, its best to use it for vanguard points. But that is just up to you, which title you would like to max right away. Dwarf you get points on every dungeon or you can just do the snowman dungeon over and over its fun hehe. Asuran you can do froggy runs, who knows you might end up with a r9 scepter. Norn with the Path of Revelations quest you can easily max it, even if you dont vanquish all the area. |

thanks for the advice guys i used the NM book on asura and the HM book on norn. Apparently EV is really fast to max through the kierans bow miniquest so i'll just do that. Also i already have LMOTN for those of you mentioning it.
