Lutgardis Survivor runs? - Guild Wars Forums

So I hear that people are using the Lutgardis FFF run to quickly get legendary survivor. What I'm asking is that how do you get there without dying? Simply play the game? Or can you be ran (I don't see how that's possible as Arborstone and HzH are in the way)?

Please enlighten me

All you have to do is get to Lutgardis then use heroes to do the run. As far as getting to Lutgardis yes you have to play the game. Or do what people in my guild do and have guildies run missions/quests for you.
Once there you go to Melandrus Hope Zone.
You stand at the start out of harms way and it takes about a minute for heroes to finish the run for you.
Then all you do is take the quest AFTER they run and accept it. 2k xp some faction and cash.
My guild does it all the time. I personally dont like it though. Its not a true survivor if you dont do it yourself.

It's not a true survivor if they don't use the heroes themselves or if they don't actually do the run themselves?

If you mean the former, then well, imoh that still doesn't make you a true survivor as you have other people or heroes doing all the work. If it's the latter then you'd be stupid. Either way, the survivor title doesn't really mean anything to me.

@OP Yes, you'll have to play the game to get there. It shouldn't be too much of a problem. If you have your doubts then get guildies to become your personal meat shields.

You are correct in that you can't be "run" to Lutgardis - you have to get there the normal way, by doing the missions and quests leading up to HzH. (Technically, once you get to HzH, you can get run from there to Lutgardis.)

Just follow the standard Survivor advice - play carefully, know the areas/missions (practice on another char if you are able to do that), etc.

If you are the "avoid PUGs" type, rest assured that all of the missions are solo-able with heroes and hench; you probably won't get Masters on them if you're playing cautiously but you can get through them.

Once you get to Lutgardis, you can pay for HFF runs but, depending on the prof you're playing, you might want to just actually do the repeatable quest over and over til you get the title. It certainly will take a while longer that way - ~5k XP without scrolls in ~25 mins vs 2k XP in 1 minute - but you'll make a little money while doing it, around 800-1000g, plus you get the chance at 5 green drops.

The farm itself is fairly "safe". There's a priest at the shrine right outside, good for +3H regen while you're on the map. That first shrine is Mehlandru, +50H & +20AL/elem (and +1 to ranger skills, if you're a ranger) and there's a 2nd shrine about 1/2 way around, Dwayna, +1H regen & +10AL. The mobs are all fairly small, except for the big crowd around Chekkr at the beginning but even that one is manageable.

It does get boring after a while but at least you do get the satisfaction of having earned the XP yourself.
