Currently, during the weekend event, Ive been solo trapping stygian on hard mode, just the first group of demons when you take the quest- the whisperer's informant is right beisde the quest guy... 16 LB points per kill, 4 runs = over 1,000 LB points

Sunspear is easy to get if you go south of Remains of Saldejarah into The Sulfurous Wastes to Alem the Unclean. It's 1000 Points/ 5 minutes if done correctly.

Lightbringer...I'll have to keep that a secret, but I can get 200-300 Points every 2-3 minutes. But I'll give a hint; notice how the Mesmer boss outside the Mirror of Lyzz exit of Dzagoniur Bastion is missing? This prevents players exploiting the boss bonus points. There, however, is another area...

Clearing the Domain of Secrets will net you a god 350 LB points per run in normal mode. Double that for this weekend event and its 700. Do it in HM and your at 1,400 points per run (HM is double right?) Takes about 20 minutes in normal mode, havent tried it in HM yet.

I've been using that exact same run. Its pretty smooth really, shame the boss is so far away though.

I still need a quick LB farming area. I'm currently using the Bastion area; it's about 400 LB points every 7 minutes or so

HM is 6/kill, so about 2.1k, bosses net 300 points usually, so around 3k per run during this weekend.

I tried doing Domain of Secrets with a few PUGS but they always have incompetences that make them die constantly and waste a ton of time. Hence although the potential gain is good, the actual gain/time ratio achieved is not.

I find it much faster to simply farm NF Garden. That's what I'll be doing since the chances of finding a PUG who can farm Domain of Secrets properly is slim to none, and even if it was found chances are it would disband after one or two runs like all the other PUGs do.

NF Garden, killing first two mobs of Menzies, then rezone. Fast and efficient.

If you have a 130/105 monk or a famine ranger, get in a 2man titan farm. 3-4 minutes a run and ~240 LB points with the added bonus of titan gems. ;-)

As for Sunspear. The Desolation loop mentioned early is good. I clear an extra group before i kill the Derv boss. Its 5 minutes a run and you wind up with about ~1.2k SS points.

Way to stop that is to zone out right away if you see Margonites. If you can see 'em, they're gonna fight the Menzies for sure. So just zone out and go back in til ya can't see any Margonites.

I hate secret spots so odds are it is mapping between Resplendent Makuun and Wilderness of Bahdza to kill the bosses fast.
