Hi there!

Many of you farm for gold to buy everything you want. Although some of you need experience to get your Skill Hunter Title or get your Legendary Survivor Title. There is already a nice guide for Cantha to get your Legendary Survivor Title written by Antithesis which can be found here This one is for Tyria.

The original build is from Dogma Blutlust which can be find here so thanks for the idea and stuff

The Start
Although I have only tried it with my Warrior I'm pretty sure it's possible with any other character as long as it is N/X or X/N. I use a W/N. You'll also need a Hero Bonder.

"Once in Kaineng Center or Lions Arch, take the quest Sunspears in Cantha from Imperial Guardsman Linro or Sunspears in Kryta from Lionguard Figo in Lion's Arch. You need to be somewhat careful during the mission to avoid lvl24 ele Wrathful Storm meteor showers (just flag your henchies out of the way when they cast), it's pretty straightforward and reasonably low risk with a party full of lvl20 henchies.

Once in Kamadan, head to the Plains of Jarin to meet with Kormir and pick up your lvl15 monk heroes. That's all we need to do in Nightfall. If you need to pick up any required Prophecies skills, jump back to Kaineng, take the Chaos in Kryta quest and head to Lion's Arch. All skills are accessible (assuming you've unlocked them) from Kamadan, Lion's Arch and Kaineng Center. If not, go unlock them in PvP, splash out and buy the PvP editions to unlock all skills, use tomes, or get them however you normally get them."

The Location

Outside Thirsty River [Mission]

The Grind

Once you're in The Thirsty River, buy yourself some Scrolls of Rampager's Insight (250 gold each) and Make sure Hardmode is activated! Set your skills and attributes and start the mission.

Make sure to Shift + Left Click on all the enchants on your hero so she won't cast them on herself. Now let your hero cast all the 6 Enchantments. Flag your Hero away when fighting.

Walk forward and take the right way. You'll see 1 Sand Giant. Kill him with Spiteful Spirit and Insidious Parasite. Now lure first group of 5-6 Rockshots Devourers and go right, walk some circles so you'll have about 15-20 Rockshots around you. (15 if you don't have the first group, 20 if you have). Now comes to funny part: hide behind one of the rocks like this:

Note: I've not lured the first group so you'll only see 15 of them.

Now cast Spiteful Spirit on one of them. As soon as you can cast it again, cast it on another one. They should in about 15-20 seconds. Make sure to use your Scroll when you've cast the second Spiteful Spirit.

As soon as they're dead, cast Animate Bone Horror to trigger the traps.

There's always a different amount of Rockshots. There are 3 groups total. One if you walk straight on (4-6 Rockshots). One between the 2 big rocks. (4-6 rockshots. And one at the right side. (12-14 including pop-ups) I kill the second and third group with a scroll. Sometimes I leave the first group.

A/N
Dogma Blutlust
ive made some with my sin <3

no hero+easy
not for survivior i guess needs some practice

4. steps:

--------------------
1. Avoid the Giant

--------------------
2. Pull Them by Using paradox+neutrality (only 1sec down time)

--------------------
3. Kill them *hrhrhr* 2 times SS

--------------------
4. Run through Traps Dark Escape+Neutrality...wont kill u though^^

Template: OwRTcYP+1JPwjSzNQAAAAAAAAA

Weapons:

Total Experience
20 Rockshots Devourers killed with a 200% Scroll = 20 x 600 = 12.000 experience
1 Sand Giant killed without a scroll = 1 x 420 = 420 experience
Total: 12.420 exp

Time
One run takes 3 minutes to complete.

So lets say you get 12000 experience every 3-5 minutes (selling your loot, buying your scrolls, casting enchantments and killing the foes).
12-20 runs in 1 hour (20 if you're experienced)
12.000 x 20 = 240.000 experience in 1 hour

Legendary Survivor = 1,337,500 XP

1.337.500 / 240.000 = 5,57 hours.

Take care!

Very nice, I was just going to go for Legendary Survivor. Do You think a mesmer could do this?

Witte Was · Jun 03, 2007, 03:47 PM // 15:47

Sure

Take Physical Resistance to get some extra Armor. If you're behind a rock, cast something like Mantra of Resolve so they won't disrupt you

dies like fish · Jun 03, 2007, 03:49 PM // 15:49

That's what I was thinking. I'll have to try this out.

Witte Was · Jun 03, 2007, 03:50 PM // 15:50

Just try several things..you won't die instantly since you've +5 health regen and 2 bonds. Tell me if it works so I can update this thread

Across The Battle · Jun 03, 2007, 03:54 PM // 15:54

I think Im going to try to do this with my paragon, so i can get legendary, it should work the same way basically. Looks very good, another good guide from witte!

Tarkin · Jun 03, 2007, 04:00 PM // 16:00

Behind the rock rockshots cant attack, send monk away from radar and get 1200xp.

bog boy · Jun 03, 2007, 04:04 PM // 16:04

may have to have a go at this with my ranger ;D

You already get the full (600 XP) when your monk is not in your agro circle

kicks66 · Jun 03, 2007, 04:10 PM // 16:10

Surely this would work 55 for aggroing them all up?

unless the distracting shot is enough to interupt you?

Xe Maul · Jun 03, 2007, 04:12 PM // 16:12

I dont have access to Nightfall, which means no Hero's for me. Can this be done with a Healer Henchman?

Ietwat · Jun 03, 2007, 04:13 PM // 16:13

i dont think u need rebirth on ure monk if ure going for survivor :P better bring succor

A Leprechaun · Jun 03, 2007, 04:14 PM // 16:14

Nice guide, my warrior/necro can pretty much solo this Hm with the exeption of killing the sand giant. Also it might not be quite as safe for those wanting the survivor title.

tuna-fish_sushi · Jun 03, 2007, 04:36 PM // 16:36

onerabbit · Jun 03, 2007, 04:45 PM // 16:45

seen this on youtube, but solo W/N

wasnt in HM though, tried it, but kept dieing rounding them up.

didnt think of a bonder.

Why does your hero monk need Rebirth?
Make him Mo/Me and take Mantra of Inscriptions and take some points in Inspiration that will help you with energy upkeep if needed.

Well..since I'm not going for Survivor and I don't want to do the run again if I die half-way..
