Using well of silence + poison arrow, enfeebling blood and shadow of fear now.

Using master of whispers n/r and have his curses at 14 so i get -4 degen from well of silence and they are dropping pretty quick, and at that degen he only has 4 maximum spears on him because pretty much as soon as they call to the torment they die straight after.
Magrid has curses at 12 so -3 degen with well of silence and has 6 sometimes 7 spears on her as they arent dropping as quick.

So maybe olias and whispers with 14 curses should speed the points up a bit as -4 seems to be a good degen amount.
I dont have olias so cant test this and im trying to get rank 8 so dont want to spend time testing whispers on his own to see how much points he gets.

Im also getting error 59 after about 10 hours every time im doing this, any ideas how to stop it?

Anyway.....up to 30k....should be able to get the 20K points I need by early tomorrow.

8 Gigs of Ram and i just got "error 059" for my computer (not the game, how odd). Ran out of memory. Haha. Btw, you can pass 10 hours if you come back and walk around a little bit. It's what I do. Mess with your characters a little bit. Manage 'em for 5 minutes then go afk again. I can go 15 hours... or 20... but be careful, this is a little hard on the compy, apparently.

Edit: No it's not nerfed. You don't get experience but the LB points are fine. They should change the title to "1337 Hero Commander" though. It's more fitting! :P

I've heard much talk about the AFK point farming, but no actual description of how to do it. Could some kind soul explain it to me?

Reading from 16 on wasn't that helpful. There's no straight up description of the basics of the build, only it's intricacies. I even paged a couple back and only found details, not basics. Could someone just give me a simple description?

i would flip if they nerf this title before i max it. i have no clue how i would get 25,000 points...i guess hours upon hours of killing margonites in domain of secr.

err=059 is listed on guildwiki; it happens when you stay in one zone for more than 10 hours.

thats not what it has for err59m directly from gwiki:

If the account has been logged in for more then 24 hours it will be disconnected. Also, if the account is logged in and is inactive for more then 10 hours with no game play occurring, it will be disconnected.

Setting up a group of spears by the shrine is relatively easy. Here is another safe spot:

I was thinking, if you set up the R/Ns with a self heal, you could take a D/N or something and farm 3 groups. You shouldn't have any energy problems with Essence Bond + Life Bond/Balthazar's Spirit.

I was thinking Taste of Pain or Soul Feast for a heal.

Hehe once again another tweak to reach max title without any effort. I guess if there was a GMC title bot ... ^^ Btw, ANet could nerf it pretty easily : by granting 0 lightbringer pts if the monster has been 'created' or rezed.

It's quite frustrating for people like me who want to make their way to the max title by spending time on it to see that others do it while sleeping, yet gg for the thinking ^^

"no game play occurring" apparently means no zoning...I tried random running around after 6 hrs, but still got knocked out at 10.

My Tahlkora does not keep the bonds on people. Or do I apply them after I aggro? I am not sure how you do it.

A nerf to that, which would also help to make The Realm of Torment easier(Which is needed IMO): Make the duplicated Torment not able to use Call To The Torment, but still give LB points for a kill. That would be the best "nerf".

Shift + Click the skill, and it will be disabled. If you dont want it to be disabled, just Shift + Click again. It have nothing to do with which hero you use.

I tried the R/N thing and it worked for a while, but failed, maybe just not positioned right, but just doing the easier slow method now - 2 groups 1 spear each as Sedna posted. Had them overspawn before this way but got it so they don't now.

i have been doing this alright, im already 20k away from my tier 8, and if you neeed help with the setups, I will gladly help if I am not afking :P

btw I use aohige healing method, using 1 group with talkhora and a n/r and the other hench group healing olias. it has been netting ~ 850-900 points per hour for me (enough for me :P)

I will even take people to afk with me if You find me before i get going

I think this pic shows everything that needs to be shown:



(btw mending was just used while pulling and settnig up, no need of it later)

Sure bleeding isnt really a problem, but it does make it a little easier for the monk, as I have a single monk bonder bonding and healing both of my rangers. When she uses shield of absorbtion, the hero's take no dmg because they bleeding it canceled out.

1k-1.2k/Hour One Man Setup

Your Role: Bonder /w...
Balthazar's Spirit, Essence Bond, Life Bond, Life Barrier(e), Mending, Watchful Spirit

Tankers:
Devona: Life Bond, Life Barrier
Goren/Koss: Life Bond, Life Barrier, Essence Bond, Mending, Watchful Spirit, Balthazar's Spirit (yes, this goes on him)
R/N or N/R: Life Bond, Life Barrier, Essence Bond

Place Balthazar's Spirit, Mending, and Watchful Spirit on yourself. Warriors and Paragons can't do this (Mending and Watchful); Rangers should use Mending Only (and Balthazar's Spirit).

I know the picture isn't the clearest buuuuut, the henchies are using the Res Shrine (the typical Monk/Caster hiding procedure that has been explained a million times in here). They will be fighting spears, make sure to get three duplicated before letting them alone. Sometimes they will wipe if the numbers don't start higher.

The R/N or N/R and the Monk Hero will be at the shrine. Their setup should look something like this. Lure the Scythe in by flagging the monk inside. Kite and let your R/N or N/R follow you. The scythe will aggro onto your monk, trapping her, or so they think! Flag the ranger into the middle of the "doorway". Flag the monk to stand next to you (away from the door) and have her use return on you. She'll teleport out, trapping the Scythes inside. Easy, Flawless farm here. Murphy's Law couldn't beat this one.

Goren/Koss will be farming spears anywhere that is NOT close to the other locations. He can farm all by himself as long as he hes your enchantments. The skill on the far right of his bar is Dwayna's Touch (Dervish Wind Prayers Skill). Make sure they are a few up before your Warrior begins mowing them down, or he may clear them.

There ya have it. Easier and 100% safe. You can leave this baby on without ever worrying about wiping (for either side). PM me ingame for help!

Plenty of games been ruined when developers don't follow their audience in natural evolution of a game but instead continually constrain game on players because, after all, they know how you enjoy yourself more then you do.

Nice idea on the above post, but it looks much more complicated to setup than 2 groups of spears. Besides, I get about 936/h with only 2 groups going, which is fine for me.

Plus I dont have factions so the monk using return is not an option for me.(which possibly eliminates one of those groups, for me at least)

EDIT: On another note, i'll have my r8 title by tomorrow.....less than 7K points to go(and I sleep long enough for those 7K points to accumulate).
