It often takes a long time before you find the right spawn, I remember rezoning for half an hour before succesfully getting 3 Striders attack me at Ashford Abbey.

Have you tried this? last time I checked when the necro leaves, the minions will attack you if your in range, I havent tried it so i wouldnt know at the moment.

personally, im not a fan of the survivor title as to few just take body guards with them where ever they go...a few solo only and get legendary survivor, those are the true masters of the pve world
and once again, choose one or other...only one can be displayed at a time
the guide will be finished in due time, i post there to say i have not forgotten about it, i am just currently visiting family in israel
for all of you deciding on d/l or wintersday, do winterday...have some fun...this title is only fun once you can wear it(and lvl 1-7 imo)
when i get back i will
1st-do a little catch up in wow
2nd-finish charr section
3rd-broaden the spectrum of characters at which this targets(the charr section is to focused on how to do it with a mesmer, i will make it more general...i have 4 lvl 11 character, a 13 and a 14 so i ended up spending more time on this guide then reaching lvl 20, i hope my sacrifice was worth it and gl)

all i have to say for the time being,
gl from a jew,

Wait, wait... do minions give you exp if you kill them?

At 12 death magic, animate bone horror gives you level 14 minion. If they do give exp, having a necro leave and join for your and kill its level 14 minions would be quicker than dleveling. Not to mention you could do it and get survivor!

I was able to get a newly formed guild into champ pt range in 2 nights of gvging before the double champ range weekend to farm. Without blood spiking either, which is even faster. It wasn't difficult...

Tried it a couple of months ago, and they didn't give xp. Haven't bothered trying it again, because I know that ANet wouldn't change something like that. You can try of course, but I doubt it'll work.

just to clear up any misunderstanding, when i said dth lvl by charr, i did mean luring them to the res shrine and going afk, lol i wouldnt bother with any death lvling if i had to sit there the whole time.

pulling charr to the res shrine is fairly simple once u figure it out and only takes on average 15-20 mins for me.

Although maybe i havent been a fan of lvling striders and spiders cause i can usually only have one lvling at a time even though there are 2-3 there at the shrine and im just too lazy to figure it out lol.

In any case, this has been a interesting thread, kinda helped me get back into guild wars. gl to everyone goin for title and congratz to everyone who had the dedication to get it done already!

I know this might be a old post, but I was skim reading thought everything and Im just wondering to myself. Im not quite registering when you say "everyone who does actually get the title be prepared to get dissrespect from everyone else" like getting it is a bad thing? Dissrespect from who? People who say "you have no life to get lvl 20 in pre" or "you have to much time on your hands" You might get dissrespect from other players but im shure that not everyone else that gets the title gets a bad remark from someone else.

As you look through the pages, all you see is..."This title is fake, just a bunch of hackers...." or.... "Heck I've seen better video footage and proved that the LDoA title didn't exist." Just wanted to say in THEIR FACE.

Currently Ive been testing death leveling to see if i can get it to work... im level 13 atm

However, when I get a good spawn outside barradin(2 striders/spiders), i aggro them and then go afk ... when I get back one has reached max level, and the other is still at its original level.

Am I doing something wrong, why arent both leveling?

if i understand what u asking, you get charm animal, confort animal, and troll unguent at same time. whether a rank 0 troll unguent helps alot depends on how you use it. pre cast before engaging charr and if u running away from a couple casters it can also save you.

Oh despite the picture being small to see name of the LDoA guy congrats

Its a braging title so brag on

In regards to your question, regardless how many spiders and striders go lure near the shrine, only one of them levels up. Its a slow pace if you're considering to use striders/spiders for death leveling. However, charr death leveling is still on going and that's your best option since you can level up more than 1 charr. The charrs level up by group, the first charr group you pulled to the shrine will get the most xp.

in reply to how i use troll ungent i use it as anti degen, since im standing behind a wall only damage i recieve is bane, burn and degen, i got ether for bane and burn, then ungent takes care of degen...i rarely die when i charr hunt as i hate the run back to them so i just make sure my health is never below 50%, if it gets to like 100health ill do one last ungent cast, ether, turn my ass and run

i find it quite useful...plus i like my bear

http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/s...24#post1116824

just found my old post from ages ago, man takes me back... the title doesn't really mean anything to me, I did it to accomplish something else and that was to further go where only one or two had gone before, when I made 20 was the most Rare of the Rare now I go to pre for calm areas visitation with friends, I had about 20 players there to wittness and it was a great celebration, and most of them are still in pre loving every minute of it like me

They can nerf the title all they want I won't care, I love to come to Pre--great scenery, good music, fight charr with friends, it's way more enjoyable of a game then post.....we all know what i'm talking about with the crying griping and namecalling on ts/vent/ect. pvp pve it's all good but some a-hole allways messes things up. In pre everything is perfect nice and calm a place where anyone can come to hang out chit chat and enjoy the atmosphere

I hope everyone can take my adivce and come here to relax, and feel free to drop me a line, i'll be one of the future many with the LDOA title

AARGRGRG!!!!
im very angry atm, I just spent 30 mins trying to pull a patrol group back to the the res shrine...groups from the first set of charr and then trying the 3 that patrol in front of the shrine...however i quit after getting frustrated.

They will pull a little ways then will aggro back ..so I shoot my longbow and re aggro them . repeat once or twice and they will follow without too much hassle....then the groups will get to some point and will simply not go beyond on. Ill reaggro over and over and they will never pull beyond a point...i try tons of different things, let them wail on me for a bit but nothing will work.
I was talking to a level 20 earlier today and he showed me how to do it ... and he had no problem doing it ... he pulled, they chased , if they lost aggro he shot his bow and they reaggroed , and he only had to do it 4-5 times to get it all the way back to the res shrine ... no problems. He didnt do anything odd that i noticed so i have no idea why the charr are not aggroing well for me.
This may sound bleak but i did manage to get one group back to the shrine earlier today. took about 15 mins of pulling and re pulling to try to get them beyond some points, then about 30 more mins to get them to attack the NPCs at the shrine(they kept running away once they took some dmg from NPCs) ... so I got to death level 1 charr group. But it took a ton of effort and annoyance.

Please help me out, how did the level 20 pull with ease and i am having so much trouble.

Feel free to pm me

One reason why i dont level the charr

Its too much hassle for me, and I dont have the time to keep rearggroing a group of charr back to the rez portal. Eh Ill think about it someday..maybe when I turn lvl 18 ill turn to lvling charr

You can get an easy 15%+ per day from Charr, it's well worth the hassle IMO.

Okay I have 1 question. Does the patrol depend on the spawn? Meaning you may have to re-zone many times untill you get a good spawn? Cuz I've been waiting around for like over an hour and no patrol or anything has come. Closest char are the ones by the broken down house which I've tried over and over with no sucsess in pulling....

I guess I might as well tell. The patrols around the Boss area will follow you but you have to follow them when they break away. It's a kind of one step forward, 2 steps back thing

well u can do survivor but unless u have people that will help u then ur pretty much henching everything. Also if u die, thats it, you have to start all over. With LDOA it just takes more time but u can't really lose it. Plus u meet alot of cool people

If you tend to stay in pre, get the LDoA title. If you're going to the post then get the Survivor title. If you get lucky, you might hit the next level of survivor titles which are the following:

Survivor Title
Survivor - 140,600 experience gained without dying.
Indomitable Survivor - 587,500 experience gained without dying.
Legendary Survivor - 1,337,500 experience gained without dying.

Good Luck
