About the method I posted earlier.
It seems that "Sunspear Great Hall->Warrior's Isle" isn't working as efficient as it worked the first few days for me (too many single minutes).

So I went exploring for other "starting outposts" and it seems (actulally it was obvious) that the same method works everywhere.

So if you find your current "starting outpost" not efficent, there is nothing wrong with the method, just try starting at another outpost

Currently I'm starting at the Lair of the Forgotten and I get my 2 minutes much faster

Working on Kurzic/ Luxon titles in jade Quarry and Aspenwood have good synergy with Drunkard title.

Here's how it works:
Open the title window and scroll down to the drunkard title. Drink a lvl5 drink and enter battle. Just keep an eye on the time and drink a lvl1 drink every minuten while your w8ing for the match to start. When you find yourself at the start of the match 2 minutes will automatically be added to you title. Drink 2 lvl1 drinks. And w8 for the countdown ( 50 seconds) to run out. Drink another lvl1 drink directly afther spawning at the quarry of your choice. Play the match......win......and repeat afther rezoning.

The system automaticly clears you of 3lvls of drunkenness (2 upon spawning and 1 by the time the countdown has run out) before the match starts as not to set you at a disadvantage by the effects of being drunk during the match!

This method clearly has three advantages:
1. Maxing the title costs less cause you can use lots of lvl1 drinks.
2. By the time u max Kurzic or Luxon title you will have maxed drunkard aswell.
3. It always works. No if, why, and or buts about it!

Have fun an enjoy!

I have found that the drink / zone twice / repeat system does not work for me. I am keeping in mind that you believe this could be different for everyone.

I am finding on this both from Iron Mines of Moladune and Hell's Precipice to the Imperial Isle, i have to zone 5 times to get all three of my drunkard credits for my level 5 drunk. Also, doing this, it takes me almost two full minutes to get my 3 drunkard minutes. So i am saving only 1/3 of the time...

I will continue to test the theory at different times, but i lost some minutes doing the drink/zone twice/repeat. It would be my suggestion to everyone to pay attention to their minutes when testing this procedure.

works for me perfectly.
Sunspear Hall (eur eng dist1) -> Isle of meditation
takes about 1min 20secs per 3 drunkard minutes

tried in a few other places around about the same. give or take 5secs.

Sweet Mystery · Jan 26, 2009, 09:24 AM // 09:24

I found to NOT zone as soon as the minute ticks in but maybe 10 seconds later.... then get full 3 mins.... but got me like 4000 points now from drunk vanquishing and mappings tricks

3600 to go... yay...

You know you can disable the drunken effects by unticking the 'enable post process effects' in your options screen, do you?

Ok, he said "I also want to clear up one point of confusion that a couple people have mailed me about: This method is only more expensive if you use regular alcohol. There is no extra cost when using spiked eggnog!"
What did he mean by that? How is it expensive, what extra cost?

I have a 3 stacks of lvl 1 alcohol to spend. Whole thing with zoning (some gh->some outpost) didnt worked at all, until i found gap betwen Hell's Precipe and ember light camp. So i drinked lvl 5 alc, w8ed 1 min in Hells Precipe, drinked lvl 1 alc, zoned to ember camp (got 1 min), then swiched to hells again, drinked lvl 1 alc, zoned to ember light camp (got 1 min drunk there), zoned to hells , drinked lvl 1 , zoned to ember and so on... - So it's 1 min of drunkard while zoning lasts (5 sec or so). I dont have much lvl 3 or 5 alc to try gaining 3 mins of drunkard so this works fine for me as long as i save time. Now...it doesn't work all the time, so did you figured out what impacts (time of day, district,continent, connection speed,lag

) cause to me it seems like its a random thing. Didnt have time to read all 20 posts, only first 3, so would you be kind to answer.

Hello,
I am new to Guild Wars Guru. I like the forums here, they are very helpful.
I wanted to point out that last night after reading Dragou De Porzan's initial post about this topic, that it worked for me so it clearly has not been "nerfed" entirely by ANET as some people have stated.
I think what Dragou did for the research of this was very detailed and complete. I am sorry that there are those out there who are not having success.
I used the recommendation he made of starting in Kamaden and zoning to Wizards Isle. It worked for me every time and will really help in reducing the time I spend achieving this title. I had allready logged 782 hard earned minutes before I read about this topic.
The only suggestion I can make is that if you have lots of lvl 1 alcohol items, cosider using them the way that wiki recommends and that is to drink a lvl 5, once 1 minute has been added to your title, start drinking the lvl 1's but only drink one lvl 1 drink after another minute has been added to your title. And do it in blocks of time, dont try to do a couple hundred minutes in one sitting. I found doing this for me was much easier especially with zoning back and forth and after aquiring 832 regular Egg Nogs from collectors over Wintersday this past year. I just zone to my guild hall, then put on some music (bladeraido works good), sit back and do a 30 minute sessions of drinking lvl 1 drinks. But again, thats just my opinion.
I hope everyone has a great weekend. Happy Easter.

beaverlegions · Jun 05, 2009, 02:59 PM // 14:59

Only the screen effect and the icon in your inventory.

Warrior's Isle isn't working for me either. I've tried a few different outposts and districts. The best I get is one minute for zoning to the GH, but I never get the other two upon zoning back

same here with me... I usually just get the 1 minute.
I have tried it with Drok -> GH (Isle of Meditation), Quarrel's Falls -> GH and Gunnar's Hold -> GH

not sure why this is happening, maybe just my luck
I'll try the other towns and see what happens

gw_poster · Jul 14, 2009, 05:13 PM // 17:13

i was able to do 1000's of my minutes while vanq'ing and other pve stuff by using [Dwarven Stability] and/or [Drunken Master] depending upon the situation....constant IMS/IAS (when [Dwarven Stability] used with [Lightning Reflexes] or [Stormchaser], anti-kd)...As a ranger using stances, [dwarven stability] really helps and the added benefits from activating while drunk are that much more incentive to drink...plus you're not wasting time standing around in GH, or other places, or trying to zone in/out to maximize effectiveness of drunk minutes.....just play the game while drunk

(note* turn off post-processing effects though

) hth

The windows seem tricky in some places. It's like you have to wait a few seconds before you map elsewhere because if you do it too soon you don't get anything.

I've only been able to get 1minutes so far.

Ember Light Camp -> Frozen Isle
Sunspear Great Hall -> Frozen Isle
Fort Ranik -> Frozen Isle
The Great Northern Wall -> Frozen Isle

All of them seem to only work when I get high (lvl5) in an outpost and wait for the first minute to pass, then drink a lvl1 drink and zone to GH.

Any ideas where to get 3min with Frozen Isle GH?

b3rt_d4ni3l · Aug 15, 2009, 07:25 AM // 07:25

I have been trying this for a while and this is what I can confirm.
So far I can only get the 1 minute (nv the full 3mins) what I did is that I take a lvl 5 drink and go to GH and then back to original place. Here I get the full one minute.

After that I take a lvl 1 drink and go to GH and back. This will get me another minute and of course my drunken lvl drop by one as well. I can repeat this as many times as my stock of lvl 1 drink last. So it seems that we can only do one minute and nv the full 3 minutes now.

Any other ppl with different outcome?

This procedure works the past few hours I try it

1) Start at Sunspear Great Hall (Europe districts for me)
2) Open the Hero window and have the Drunkard title on sight.
3) Open the Guild window.
4) Drink up to level 5.
5) Wait for the first minute to be added to the title.
6) Press the "Guild Hall" button. (Our GH is Warrior's Isle)
7) Check the title and 2 more minutes should be added to the title.
8) I press "Leave Guild Hall"
9) I repeat the procedure.

If for some reason at (7) only one minute is added, then I do (8) (6) (7) (8)
and I get the last minute.

Don't rush from (6) to (8) cause the procedure might fail (fail = take the whole 3 minutes)

Instead of traveling to Guild Hall you can go out of the outpost and get back in. Just a variation.

So, for about 1 minute and 10 seconds you can get 3 minutes on the title.

this still works but i have slow loading time so my time is 20 sec extra but still saves some time

i travel from ember light camp still the fastest loading time for me. than anywhere elese
