Does anyone know a way to get Very fast points in GWEN i am trying to get those titles and would like to know a fast way

pamelf · Nov 09, 2008, 10:05 PM // 22:05

Books. Keep re-doing the books and submitting them. You can also farm points, but I think that books is a faster and ultimately more rewarding way of doing it.

i have heard about people Doing only the first norn bear, a time for heros and the first charr mission over and over... then truning in book when u have 10 done

Raptor Farming, Snowman cave, certain areas being cleared for bounty in HM.

Icy The Mage · Nov 09, 2008, 10:17 PM // 22:17

Raptor Cave Farm = Asuran
Secret Lair of the Snowmen/CoF/VS Farm = Dwarven
HM NPF / Spectral Vaettir Farm = Norn

For Vanguard I'd hand in the rep books though, there's not really a fast way to farm ebon vanguard reputation points that I currently know about

michelle vanwinkle · Nov 09, 2008, 10:38 PM // 22:38

ughh raptor is so slow haha,

Raptor Farming = About the only good way to farm points. Certain classes can farm them solo, so I'd check to see if your class can.

Snowman Cave, CoF, VS Farm = Dwarven points. For snowman, I'd bring some lockpicks there are a couple of chests in there. Also the run can be done with henchmen (I'm pretty sure). For CoF, 600/Smite is the fastest way to go there. Or you can just pay 2k for a run (the runs are profitable). For VS Farm, Frozen Soil ranger, Perma Sin, Healers Boon monk and cryers (they echo the Sunspear skill "Cry Of Pain").

HM Farming outside of Olafstead is good for Norn. People usually go ursan for this. Farming spectral vaettirs are also a good spot to farm golds/glacial stones.

For Vanguard, doing vanquishes works good.

As for books...I've never tried :P

I had gr8 fun re doing the Snowman dungeon over and over again /endsarcasm
but i did get to rank 5 in about 7 runs which is for me 15 min run.

parlin_meynholt · Nov 10, 2008, 12:46 AM // 00:46

I'd recommend looking at the various rep guides on the wiki's. Most of those recommend doing a certain quest over and over with the bounties and not turning it in, just killing the mobs. However, I've decided to do the multiple books, doing each quest in sequence method. That is, get the number of books I need figured out, in my case 3-4 per rep to get to hard mode only rep, and do each quest over and over until I've got it in each book then move on. Of course I forgot that I hadn't done any real dungeon other than Heart of the Shiverpeaks, so I need to go run the others, turn in the NM Dungeon book and then figure up how many full and partial NM Hero books I still need.

Zen1331 · Nov 10, 2008, 02:19 AM // 02:19

Books is a good way of earning points. I read on the forums of how someone did all the norn missions over and over again w/ a time for heroes and would hand in the books.

What I did was I'd fill up w/ hero 5 hero books in my belt pack and do curse of the norn bear, blood washes blood, a gate too far, and time for hero's. Then I would move that book to the 5th position and re-do the missions over and keep moving the books back to the last position because if you don't you won't get credit for re-doing the mission (learned that the hard way...).

Your standard discord team should destroy all of those norn missions w/ the exception of blood washes blood, should take gwen as an interruptor instead of a n/rt healer, imho.

Luminarus · Nov 10, 2008, 02:37 AM // 02:37

For dwarven snowmans dungeon is the fastest. Can get up to 7k from one run, with an average of about 2k i think. Cant really remember, did it like 5 months ago now.

Asuran I find fastest way is to repeatedly vanq Magus in HM on a double weekend, or HM heroes books on non double weekends.
Norn... back when the NPF was done it was pretty good and I would recommend that, but I dunno how efficient it is now.
Vanguard is definately books, even on a double weekend imo.

Should be an update this month reducing the grind associated with titles, so methods for reputation point gain might be different quite soon. I usually do HM hero books for my charas; sometimes vanquishing during double eotn rep weekends.

HM books are the best, but dont forget your buffs when your farming, questing, ect.

boarderx · Nov 10, 2008, 01:05 PM // 13:05

i agree with doing the books, you can bang out some of those real quick, for example curse of the nornbear can be done in 5 mins, just do the quick missions and turn the book in for 3-4k rep points and if you get some freinds around do more of the quests

gl and hf!

imnotyourmother · Nov 10, 2008, 02:06 PM // 14:06

Solo farming has nothing to do with farming the rep points. one kill = one point either way solo or not.

I would load up my toon and my Heros and take henchman 8 in all and go out there and mow them down.

Once in the explorable area take the shrine bonus and then kill everything and I mean everything. Once everything is dead go around to the different shrines and collect your bounty.

More on your team = faster kills = title faster.

I for example wanted to be able to craft charrslaying weapons so I used the seige devourer and just wasted the charr for my lvl 5. Took me a weekend. I went with hero's and henchies.

Books are the best way. But there so boriiing i can bring myself to do it.

Quaker · Nov 12, 2008, 02:58 PM // 14:58

Maybe they'll make a "Title pack" in the in-game store, so you can just buy titles and not have to play anything. That way, you can have all the neet-o titles and they can have less load on their servers. Win-win I'd say.

Asguard · Nov 12, 2008, 04:19 PM // 16:19

Vanquishing sacnoth vally <saving all bosses till after 250 kills> can net between 10 and 40k points PER run. more on double/triple rep weekends (also gather quests that ADD bosses to the zone, such as the titan in the forest
