What does assing stand for? I can figure out what it means but don't understand the abbreviation. More importantly, how do you do it?

I believe he means "assign", as in go into the key configuration in the options and assign the #8 skill slot to three different buttons, so that you can mash all of them in quick succession. I've also had good luck pressing 8 and clicking on the skill repeatedly at the same time.

Spamming 8 and mouse clicking on the skill at the same time means you can carry on up to over 100 energy. I tend to watch tv as I do this dungeon so suffer quite a few knockdowns at times lol.

The "easiest" farm is now the wurms outside boreal station in hard mode. Because their is 0 chance to die unless you go in melee range. So just use any degen and skills you got and stay at range.

That is only if you have a bad connection or lag or don't feel like you trust it in boxing.

Any tips how to repeatedly beat the Punch-Out Extravaganza in HM?

No problem with NM, I get there usually to the end boss without any or just 1-2 KDs (solo, without Kilroy), but HM seems to be a real hurdle. Kilroy goes down too fast, especially in the passage with rangers who fell him down in a few seconds; summit carvers use Disrupting Chop and disable my block for 20 sec (how on earth can they interrupt and disable a STANCE?!), I get lots of damage, and when I get on my feet again, I'm already down to half bar before I can even hit "run". The same with the groups of three melee fighters in the large chamber with Mahgma: Kilroy isn't of any help, and they kill me as soon as I get up -- they start hitting me even before I get up, and I'm dead after 2-3 blows.

This is getting increasingly frustrating. I had 1-2 successful runs in HM but now I suspect that it was just a streak of very good luck

(Yes, I have fully modded gold knuckles, with 12 in daggers).

You can pull the melee fighters away from the archers and Killroy should follow. It's not disrupting chop that disables your blocking skills, it's broadhead arrow. Just retreat and wait for the daze to wear off.

Sometimes it does all go wrong and when you have a risky amount of energy to recover just map back to town and start again.

I think the mods and dagger mastery are a waste of time tbh.

Or someday ANet slips in a secret update that makes knockdowns count as deaths and screws everyone farming in here over.

NM/HM is easy. If you don't get Daze spam Block Skill and if you have exp take on 3 HM Summit and not take much dmg. I did this Dungeon on HM with 4 Summit on my butt they never land a hit. I saw 0 from them and they got smoked. So if you get knockout it doesn't count as a Death so you can do it again until you get max Survivor Title. Key to this Dungeon is that Block Skill use it wisly it be your best friend.

Got survivor on my Ranger doing Dwarven Boxing. Spent about 35k on Lightbringer Scrolls along with the money you get from all those runs. Been playing on and off for a month doing it and in total, came to about a little over 12 hours (/age). I have another survivor doing hFFF and it comes nowhere as fast as this. Although if you lag and die while boxing, then....x_x. Hfff is still probably the safer way but dwarven boxing is quick if you want the title.

I've done this to level all of my chars since I bought GW:EN. No survivor yet, I always seem to screw up and die running there, on my newest char (Warrior, trying to get GWAMM) I think I'll just fight through everything until I get to the outpost -.-
Oh, btw, set up both 8's on your keyboard to use Skill 8 and spam them both at the same time, I have been at the max energy and haven't failed to stand up once being KD.

The 8, 9, i, o combo works excellent as well. Other than the fact I had a heck of a time remembering I remapped i to 8 and needed to remap my open bag key to something else lol.

I'm overly frustrated with this. NM is fine but HM... Well i can't get past the area with the second boss. Hell i can't even get to the second boss. I try to attack with Kilroy. And have everything set up correctly. Custom knuckles, and 12 dagger mastery. what am i missing here?

By the way if anyone can point me at some free video capturing software I'd be willing to record a run and post it on youtube for illustration.

This can be solved by getting a guildie or Friend to run you there. My Friend Ran my Necro from Gunner's Hold to next Norn Mission. So have a friend run you there and you should have no problems and you wont die.

New info on Fronis Irontoe's lair here http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/s...php?t=10256116

Its not horrible for survivors but definately not good.

Edit: Regardless of whether you can still do it in the same amount of time the information is still accurate and equiping weapon upgrades to the gold daggers does nothing for you anymore. Why that thread got closed I have no clue.
