Talking Elite Armor in under 50 days?!?

I wonder if anyone has ever done this, to try to get Elite (15K) armor as fast as possible, with no handouts. I just got a full set of 15K armor, dyed white/silver, in only 47 days of playtime. Has anyone done it faster? BTW, this is not playtime just for that character, but TOTAL playtime.

In the past, i believed people obtained their 15k amour in about 1-3 days of playtime? (Pure farmer before the 2006 nerf)
I obtained my first 100k in less than 1 days of playtime before the 2006 nerfed. I believed there are people who are faster. (Using a max lv-ed character with all the required items/amour to farm. Starting from 0gold coin to 100k)

In the past, you can easily gain 10k in ~1hr.

Ok...so that excludes 99.999% of the population that regularly posts here. Should I give you a cookie, since my first created character still doesn't have a full set of 15k armor, and she's had her 2nd bday already...

uumm.. to get the money? maybe 1-2 hours.. to actually get 15k armor with a new char? I guess for proph 15k armors that'd be a few hours :P

edit: ah.. with no help? i'd say a few days in proph and 8 hours at most in fac/nf (those two are so easy to finish)

Sorry but you're not qualified ^^

Seriously, his post has absolutely no meaning but to brag that he can get elite armor as a first-timer in under 50 days. Maybe close?

47days of gametime to obtain 1 set of 15k amour. . .

It takes less than 2 hours to learn how to play.
1 hour to learn about fan site (GWG) Visit guildwars.com and they promote fansite
1 hour to seek for farming guide
10 hours to finish the game
10 hours to farm the money needed
60 seconds to craft them

Or

1 hour to learn the game
10 hours to complete
Accidentally obtained a rare item that worth 100k++
1hour of spamming in district with WTS
60 seconds to craft them

meh.... Fine.. You know everything....


Seriously though. I used NO guides, this is my first online game, and I'm a monk. Using a fansite or other source out of in game is considered extra help.

Meh, whatever... I know I cant farm 100K in 10 hours, on NM. How you got those stats are beyond me.

Eventually you'll find making money in this game is considerably easy, but if it makes you happier have this shiny medal as a reward.

Jfyi, Monk is the ultimate farming of all of the professions.

I don't think buying gold counts dude... :P

I can farm 10K per hour event after the loot changes, hard mode does wonders and my 55 loves it...

So yeah, I reckon if I REAAAALLLYYY wanted 15K Armor (personally think it's a waste) I could get it in about 10 hours of play...
