You are doing way better than I am - congrats

After about 1/2 way through HM I decided to take a break.

I have been playing LotR while waiting for EotN to come out. I log on GW now only every couple of days to see if anyone needs help here or there or visit some place nice from the past.

I burnt myself out doing HM so a break is long over due.

I meant, he didn't answer how many other players he had helping him. Inquiring minds want to know, especially since he asked that question to other players.

that's rather impressive. Congradulations.

I'm just starting to pick up titles on my first character, but it's not easy. Got the Sunspear maxed and up to R6 for LB during the weekend. Got the Protector titles and I'm working on the Cartographer titles, just need Tyria now. After that I'm going to go plunge into Hard Mode and work on Guardian and Vanquisher. It'll probably take me alot longer then 6 weeks though. I'm just aiming to have it done around the time GW:EN comes out.

u ignore how many hours are actualy played and how many are afked. a lot of people leave their accounts logged in without playing. the other day i have been logged in from 8am to 11pm, and i believe i actualy played 90minutes because i spent the day studying/working/being out buying 2 books i needed etc...
u'd be surprised to know how many people stay logged without playing.

as for the titles, playing hard those can be achieved in 1600-1800hours, over 2 years that's at least 3 hours a day for titles.

@op: congratulations for your HM achievements i got bored not being able to vanquish lornar pass so i aborted HM and picked up another game

I finished all the mish's on HM last week. Tyria took the longest to do but I was able to hero/hench about 18 of the 25 missions.

Went to factions next and was lucky to find a small group of people (4) doing the missions so in 2 days we cleared all of the hard ones and then I hero/henched the rest.

With some of those people from my factions group we were able to finish up Elona in about 4 days. We had 5 people one night so we did about 5 hours of non-stop missions starting with Ruins of Morah and ending with Abbadon.

The key to finishing up the mish's is finding a small group of people for the hard missions and getting a small HM friends list going. You really only need 1 or 2 other human players with good hero's to do most of the mish's. I was surprised how easy some of them were.

Wow...that's a lot of time. Nice job on all those titles though. I'm nowhere close to being done with HM. Finished Tyria over the last weekend and I think I've got 4 left in Cantha so maybe finish that this weekend. Having a heck of a time finding groups but it was fun to hero/hench Vizunah. But the vanquishing part I am no where close, barely even started.

I'm curious if you have used different hero builds then some of the other forum posts to move through so quickly.

Tbh the part of his title bar that took the longest is the Treasure Hunter.

Guardian/Protector and Vanquisher are quite easy once you get down to it. Cartographers require alot of effort. But Treasure Hunter takes so damn long to max. I've been chest running alot these last 2 weeks and i've only gained about 500 chests. I just need that and Wisdom to be at 25 Titles, but getting there will take a long time.

If only I got some real support instead of heroes and henchies, than I would get close to some of these titles.

R O Y may have all those titles, but he has no fame or Champion points. So it doesn't even matter.

Also, there's a couple other people with that many titles in the SCREENSHOT SECTION. Where this belongs.

Nah, even Alesia/Lina did me proud when i vanquished Dreadnoughts/Lornars. Aslong as you cover for the henchmans weakness (the fact Alesia is the dumbest kiter on the planet and that they like to ball up) they're useable.

Nothing quite beats Alesia kiting a foe... away from all Wards and Traps... then getting herself stuck against a wall and killed. Think that happens at least 5 times everytime i do a zone with Centaur.

Wow i can do that to, Leeloof has 60,000 fame so you must not matter either? gg.. *sarcasm* pvp elitists go to hell.

Congrats to the titles, haven't started hard mode and never will, and someone in the post your titles section has 25 maxed titles i believe with 27 million xp, so its really close.

lol, you took offense to that, that's so cute. This is just a +epeen thread, so shouldn't even exist. So he has PvE titles, others do too, it isn't hard. He played 6 hours a day since release, if he didn't have those titles he's bad. But taking 6 hours a day for 2 years JUST to get 24 titles and 30 mill exp is pretty poor. That must have been a lot of afking.

Of course Leeloof has more fame than me. Leeloof has more fame than anyone. Your comparison is terrible.

Why flame then? Others have high rank in PvP to, It isn't hard. I bet this guy has more titles then you do aswell.. i really don't see the problem with the comparison. I didn't take offence to it, I just thought it was annoying. Hmm..

Thats it clearly Strength needs to be nerfed, it should only have armor penetration once every 5 seconds.

Ok. Seriously though congrats ROY thats a hell of an accomplishment! I thought I was doing good when I hit 12 titles haha.

You might want to keep the whole time thing under wraps though...I mean HM being what it is and how it was supposed to soak up time yada yada you did soundly clobber it. This would certainly be incentive for ANET to give us Hell mode...possibly a Horadric Cube.

You should write a guide up or at least consider it for the harder areas. Surely you've got plenty of tricks and tips.

Yes seeing as titles came when Guild Wars started, beautiful math man. *clap*

6.3 Hours/Day is quite impressive in a game which doesn't encourage grind. But in World of Warcraft, the leading guilds require 16 Hours/Day for end-game raids. WoW is the type of game which creates the stereotype of the 40 year old virgin who lives in his mother's basement, not Guild Wars. Just an interesting juxtaposition.

Wow, look what he said in his OP:''I'm sure that many players did it in a shorter period of time and I would like to know how long it took for you.'' Gwg mods ftw? Thanks and goodnight!

Sorry, but adding a couple extra words to a SCREENSHOT to try to pass off a redundant e-peen +1 thread as a discussion doesnt make it any less redundant.

Thinking of how threads relate to the forums and knowing when threads should be shut down ftw.

Hate to say it but this is not a +e-peen thread or whatever you want to call it. He was just simply stating some facts, and asking some questions, I don't see the problem .. It just seems that alot of people here are jealous in some way.
