Default SD Whats your goal

With Snowball Dominance giving out such a good reward, what's every ones goal for the end of Wintersday?

Mines personally is 2 or 3 stacks a day, not a heavy farmer.

My goal was to max vanguard on my necro using only SD. Only barely had r8 on it before SD.

That's a lot of stacks.

I farmed 350 Tonics a day, then bought the same amount using the money I earned from the quest.

Stopped as soon as I maxed Party, that run is so boring.

I have R8 Vanguard on six mule characters. I plan on maxing them

Then I'll be working on getting enough XP across my playable toons to get UAS on each. I've completed UAS on four, and I'm pretty far on a few others, who only need 20-40 skill points each. I should easily get this far. The others are 200-300 away, and out of reach for now.

took 3.5 hours to get r8 to r10. That's with bathroom breaks, rangers not expert.

EDIT: it's about 55 seconds (I timed it) per run with the zoning on average, 2.25-3 mins with zoning if your team is not expert.

I'll probably farm a stack per day. I'm not bothering with the consumable titles -- I'm just going to sell everything so I can buy the stuff I need to get to 30 in my HoM.

I just hope there is still a market for gifts as time goes on.

Is it really faster than SD? I might give it a shot later. Any tips?

I would be farming and maxing party title if I remembered to bring my laptop charger home for the holidays. Stuck with my netbook and playing guildwars is really crappy on it. At least I can do strength of snow and afk the last part and grab chest.

Just enough tonics/gifts to max out my drunkard and party title. Currently about 67% through with my PP title. Also currently about 6.5% through my drunkard title. Haha.

With 2 accounts I can generate 3 stacks of gifts in about 40 minutes.

Well a good run takes ~3 minutes in Crush for 15 gifts, 15 tonics, and 750g. Erratic AI makes it hard to give an average time on SD so I can't really do the math with it.

The best advice I can give for Crush is USE YOUR SNOWCONE. People seem to forget they have that. It's especially helpful if you use it right before a Champion dies to get the heal without the skill disable. Other than that, watch your positioning when hitting Beacons so you don't aggro a mob that spawns.

This, I am double accounting so i am maxing both accts with vanguard then moving on to my survivor ranger which i just got to Eotn.

I can max it in like 250ish runs so it will take a decent amount of time but each full round takes me about 2 minutes so thats about 500 minutes which is about 8.5 hours without any breaks. So i could probably do it in 2-3 days. I really dont care about how many stacks of anything i get but i already have about 10 stacks of gifts and 5 stacks of tonics.

I am too lazy to bother with crush since I already have a routine with SD although i will eventually do them just to try them out.

I assume this is on SD?
Are those gifts purely from the rewards?
How long Does each run take from accepting reward to accepting reward?

I can get about 1 stack total in 30 minutes but thats about it (including the other rewards ofc and with double accs)

how do you get 55 seconds? The dialogues alone at the beginning take 30-40 seconds, how can u get the reward/change dists in 15-25 seconds?


EDIT: Today i found out how to delete a double post

Thats complete BS unless your buying a stack or something. 3 Stacks in 40 minutes is more than 37 runs in 40 minutes. That means it takes you 64 seconds to accept reward, redistrict, retake quest, complete quest? Yeah not buying it.

I get around 450 presents, 240 tonics and 24k an hour with my two accounts. Could probably get it to 2 stacks an hour if i focused, but im always watching a movie or tv show or something at same time.


---- On topic: Since i get almost 2 stacks an hour, my goal was 6-8 prezi stacks a day, but i keep getting distracted with polar bear quest. Promised myself if i didnt get one by 200 runs id stop, but well see >_>
