i have though out what i am going to do and determined that i must make a MM in NF for the highest chance of get the Survivor Title fastest.

all i need is the your opinion about it and suggestions; if it will work i am at lvl 5 now.
i use scrolls, bountys, and i am going to Prophies when i get the right lvl so i can get even faster.

If you have EoTN you can just do the dwarf boxing dungeon (Forgot it's exact name)
In HM over and over, with scrolls used it's probably much faster then any other place, and it's safe because you wont die unless you spam ''8'' to slow after you get knocked out.
(You can get knocked out 15+ times before it gets hard for the average person, so don't worry about that.)

Not sure if MM might be the easiest thing to keep yourself alive in. Blood of the Master, most the commonly used minion-healing spell, usually takes a good chunk out of your health. It might be a good idea to just get yourself a MM hero.

The Punch-Out Extravaganza or whatever is pretty much the fastest way to earn this title. However, this takes many hours of grinding. I personally prefer to work through all the chapters to try and get my character this title. If you want to do this too, you should be prepared to fail couple of times.

Also, you'll level faster in Nightfall than you will in Prophecies unless you Ascent in Prophecies before completing "Hunted" in Nightfall.

I'm currently going for the Legendary survivor, I am halfway to the second level of the title, with no farming just being careful in missions and elite captures, but if you have factions then use that, the rewards for the quests are alot higher

Just got r3 Legendary Survivor on my Rit this weekend!!

The 2x xp for Elite capping helped, and I just relentlessly pursued getting them while they were worth twice as much.

I feel a sense of accomplishment with this because I didn't do any faction farming or punch-out repetition. I got it by playing thru the game, doing quests (across 3 campaigns) and then the 2x xp elites weekend.

Any character can become a Survivor. A Necro MM isn't necessarily the best choice, it simply a choice. (From other posts, most people say that, for PvE, your best bet is a Monk, or /Monk character.)

On a sad note: my other character I was going for this title on got killed when the program locked up on me. By the time I got reconnected to the server, she had a DP!! Argh!! 850k xp, and I was going for a simple boss in the Marga Coast, and I got killed! Not even party wiped! But the stupid AI H&H let me get killed while I was "afk" trying to get the program back up and running! ::sigh:: Well, that's why this is also the other "Lucky" title I guess...

Good luck to you! The title means so much more if you do it legit. Plus, my game play improved dramatically once I started pursuing this title. I really learned a lot about being a better PvE player by: learning how to pull; watch aggro; learn when to recognize that things are going south and when to retreat/run away. It keeps you on your toes when you know that death matters!

Anything that stands at the back of the party ,anything with self healing skills,once you get to lvl 20 cap some elites for 5K a pop , use guildies to run you through missions and if that fails get to Lutgardis and faction farm!(if you have factions) also ask around for lightbringer scrolls which give you x3 XP points.

MM isn't too bad of an idea, as long as you understand the Life Sacrifice skills, and use them wisely, or not at all. The minions will provide a good source of protection, but you have to find ways to kill the monsters before you get them. Dark Bond is a VERY nice defensive skill, and Vampiric Horrors do nicely to help keep your health up. Infuse Condition is another skill that can save you when dealing with Burning, Poison, Disease, and Bleeding, but especially Daze.

Nightfall and Factions will provide quests with more experience for the rewards, so I'd go to those 2 spots before Prophecies. If you can complete the missions in Factions and Nightfall with Masters, you also get more XP and skill points. The best reason to go to Prophecies is for the quests that provide skills as a reward.
