Where/how to farm for alcohol, party animal, and sweet tooth?
I recently got my legendary survivor vaettir farming, bringing me up to 27 max titles, and I only need 3 more, my options are drunkard, party animal, and sweet tooth.
I was wondering if there are any good farming spots for those items, i'm slightly familiar with gifts of the traveler and the pre equivalent. I'm wondering if there's anything else. I also know I can do the above mentioned vaettir farm on weekend events, but is there any way to farm the above items more consistently throughout the week.
ps: also wondering if it maybe just more profitable/easier to farm uw, fow, or doa and sell the drops for the title items i need still.

well this is my 2 cents.
i says stick with vaettir. i'll do a few snowman to break up the runs. then just regular feather farming to mix it all up.
for uw/fow i just Con my self or BU+Armor and farm Fow T1 path burning forest ( aka practice) then anywhere else i go. For UW T-2 then T3, then some wailing lords after clearing the chambers.
i don't DoA but i hear it's better profit then Fow/UW.
again my 2 cents. Gl on your titles.

thanks, i used to solo farm uw a lot, and used to farm doa on hm before ursanway/cryway back in the day, but I've been out of the game for a while (a few years) so all these new speed clears are new and foreign to me.
i'm guessing you meant vaettirs on weekend events?
also what's feather farming? are you talking about farming feathers for consets and then just selling those? or do they drop the alcohol, sweets and party items too?

Well personally id go this route -
Stick with vaetires and snowmen but get rdy to do them at easter event and 6th bday event - you will get the following drops - choc bunnies ( sweet tooth ) / cupcakes ( sweet tooth ) and golden eggs ( +1 atts for 10 mins ).
So you can farm the 2/3 titles easily.Drunkard you cant really farm this way as no alcho is due to drop for a few months.
Id hazard a guess and alcho can only be farmed for now via - dwarf boxing/snowmen - slow as hell - eg as rewards and 1 every 10 or so mins , and via pre sear doing the bear quest ( its on wiki i believe ).

thanks, i will probably do this and my kurzick for my 3rd title, as i'm very close to r11
though i'm wondering if i should be doing uwsc's and just sell the ectos/rare drops to help buy some of the items too until those weekend events

Yeah. Poor Vaettirs. Oh i was just saying to change out runs do some feathers runs. and Yes sell them off or keep. The drop rate for feather farming (in my experience) is small for weekend drops. I just like to mix up the runs.
loving this build. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QpUq6Dg9lYA !!

Never farmed vaettirs but arent they a huge source of golds? Selling them for 7/5k will get you a fair whack of cash to buy consumables

yeah they are... sadly i didn't know how much you could sell them for unid, so I id'ed them all, salvaged the good mods, and merchanted the trashy ones. gave me a pretty big boost on the gold items title track, but, that's almost impossible to max nwayz so not really worth it.
ps: so the general opinion is there are no real good spots to farm those title items, except during weekend events, so during normal times it would be best to do other farms correct just for money?

If you can be patient and wait for the festivals, those are the most economical sweet/party/alcohol drop times

Yeah, I'd wait for the festivals to farm the items. The time it would take to get all the items you would need through boxing/snowman dungeon would be MUCH larger that the time it would take to just farm the gold via vaettirs and buy the points off of players.

DoA is the steadiest income in GW imho.
Join a guild that's good at it and just do it 24/7 when you've got a week holiday/on weekends. (Okay maybe 15/7 is a better idea if you wanna stay sorta healthy)
You'll have enough for atleast 1 of them. Repeat, or use your wealth to acquire more wealth by powertrading. Which, if you're like me, takes longer then DoA.
Hope I helped.

Doa would as said be the big income but that itself takes time to learn a new build and get in a team if guild/alliance doesnt do it.
Vaetires are gd for golds as said and if you do take the road of conset making - iron and dust ( salv glacial stones ) can be got easily.
UWSC - thats a gray area for me , yes plenty of ppl do it but i dont think they get a huge amount of ectos from it - tho it states sc i dont think they actually do a full foe clearance - sc opposed to vq , just clear whats needed to get quests done.In my eyes if it gave high ectos then the price of ectos would have decreased and stayed low ( same when anet buffed sf years ago and a huge influx of sins went ecto farming and the prices plummited ) and same with rare drops from uw.

imo, the best time to get points for the $$ titles are Halloween and Wintersday, when you can farm Every bit helps & Snowball dominance. But those two just passed so I suggest you go farm raptor in coming Easter, vaettir is good too but it's 60mob/4mins, raptor is 34mobs/min. For the normal weekdays, feather farming is easy money.

For consistent farming of these 3 items, the only one that will allow you to collect them is through completion of Zashen Quests/Missions where you get quite a bit of Zaishen Copper Coins to trade with the NPC for them. Zaishen VQ gives considerable amount of coins plus the quests and missions also a decent amount everyday. Doing these, you earn some golds as rewards plus drops which can be put to use to buy more of those items you need.

This is what I do. Its not the fastest way, but it's certainly the least boring and the most varied. You get to see a lot of different areas, fight different enemies and face different challenges and all the time earning quite a bit of dough (and zoins to trade in for firewaters/party items).
I'm in a similar boat to you, once I reach survivor I'll be at 28 titles with a choice of Drunkard, Party and Sweet. I'll be going for drunkard (6.7k) and party (3.5k) to max it out.
