Big deal. Anyone can not die when they just sit at the very beginning.

Sorry, but I wasn't sitting anywhere. If you want I can make a video where it will be seen that all of the main storyboard maps are complete.

Ok, here it is, hope that's enough to proof it wasn't a run:

I think he also meant that someone/people can run you through ther missions without you doing anything. Maybe you participated in some of the missions, but not all.

But congrats if you did it by fighting through yourself, and not being babysitted.

I can easly believe he did it all without being ran. The last time I made my necromancer (currently remaking again - dont like the name much, and on the rong account...), at the 40 hour mark, I had completed all missions, quests, and bonus' (exepting dunes and iron mines bonus - were completed later) up to ember light camp, as well as had all necromancer and mesmer skills, exepting about 10 elites.

I was not ran anywhere, and I was level 20 half-way through the jungle.

Yes, you probably did it legitimately. But someone pointed out, if you check his earlier screen shots, he was ONLY lvl 19 when he reach Ring of Fire. Like you said, you got to lvl 20 in the jungle... and he is ONLY lvl 19 at Ring of Fire!?

Oh and I just checked, he was only lvl 10 at Amnoon Oasis..

Smoke Nightvogue · Apr 28, 2006, 04:44 AM // 04:44

That means only one thing - I wasn't repeating every mission 2-3 times, like it usually happens.

Whether it's an interesting experiment, this is a team project on making a character that survives through all the missions in the game without dying. He was in a party that was working for him, i think. It's still an impressive team achievement, but not much to be proud for the char itself :P

A small example: You posted a picture showing you in Dragon's Lair at lvl 17, let's assume at the beggining of the quest. (So let's assume that you ascended and raised to level 17).
A lvl 17 character has between 104.000 and 115.599 experience.
Ascension itself gives 50k exp. This means that this character, just before ascension, had minimum 54k and max 65k exp, which mean you were lvl 12-14 just before ascending.
A character who went "normally" through the missions, would: a. Have a higher level.
b. Had lots of difficulties getting in ANY party in the post-ascension missions being lvl lower than 20. Try to enter Iron Mines or Ice Caves missions with a lvl 18 char: noone will take you (and they would be right in most cases).
So this is a very difficult thing, but "Guild Wars God" is a baby-sitted character throughout the game missions, which is very different than what the expression "a character who finished the game without dying" implies.

Wacky · Apr 28, 2006, 04:58 AM // 04:58

Give the guy a break.

And in any case, getting into a group for Ice Caves or Iron Mines at a low level is easy - just take henchies.

Toally mad...

If you did it through the legitimate way fighting your way through all the missions and getting from point A to B, you won't be lvl 10 in Amnoon Oasis. And I doubt you quested much with henchies.

Smoke Nightvogue · Apr 28, 2006, 05:47 AM // 05:47

I used the henchies alot, especially prior to Aurora Glade, but I wasn't doing additional quests that aren't needed to complete the game. You can see the second video I posted to see what exactly was passed and what's not.

Diablo™ · Apr 28, 2006, 05:50 AM // 05:50

Wicked sick, I tried that once... but damn lag screwed everything up.

Yogi's Pain · Apr 28, 2006, 05:55 AM // 05:55

Say what you want about the guy, and you have. But none of you have the screen shots to show how easy it is other than him. I have no doubts that being ran through the game and doing nothing can be done. However I do have doubts that most of you don't have the friends capable of running you through the game.

However he did it, this seems to be an original post. Nobody else has stepped up saying they did it. So give him the credit he deserves.

Congrats

Denshoni · Apr 28, 2006, 06:02 AM // 06:02

Screw the naysayers, that's quite an achievement. On the 3rd attempt was it? If I died the first 2 times trying to do this, I would most likely give up. You'd be crazy not to accept some help. He even said he was ran at certain points so being blatantly negative just makes you look silly.

And even if you went and did it the long way, completed all quests/missions, etc, you'd more than likely still get negative feedback regardless.

You sir, win. Everyone else, including myself, will continue failing now.

Smoke Nightvogue · Apr 29, 2006, 07:35 PM // 19:35

Thanks for the compliment, Den, here's the long awaited reward that I've got today - a brand new Survivor title =) I believe that I'm the first player in Guild Wars to ever get this thing so I'd say the whole quest was worth the efforts

**cheers & thanks to ANet**

n1k · Apr 29, 2006, 07:59 PM // 19:59

Sick title! Thats awesome

ThunderStruck · Apr 29, 2006, 08:58 PM // 20:58

Wow, is it even POSSIBLE to make it to the next level of that title????

Maxiemonster · Apr 29, 2006, 09:58 PM // 21:58

If you're an experienced farmer, you can easily get that second title. Be farming trolls outside of Droknar's for example, you can get a 250K experience a day or something.

Smoke Nightvogue · May 07, 2006, 08:09 PM // 20:09

I'd say I'm ok with farming, and therefore... here we go with the next title:

Btw, I don't think it's a good idea to farm Trolls in the ice cave, there's a chance you might get killed because they're surrounding you from all sides. The best place to do "Survivor" farm in Prophecies for W/Mo is Diviner's Ascent (don't forget to put Scrolls of Slayer's Insight on =)
