honestly, even if it wherent for upcoming weekend, NF is a must have for a lot of reasons.

Kinda sucks that I have to work Fri, Sat, and Sun. Might only get a couple of hours in between work and sleep. Ah well.. Maybe next time. Would like to get at least one or two more SS ranks on my Mes, since she uses the Cry of Pain a lot.

A dream come true. My monk will get Holy Lightbringer and Legendary Spearmarshal now, just a shame this didn't come around when I was doing it on my Ele (duh).

I'm R6 now but still have a way to go til R7.

hmm you mean theres a spot where you can farm LB and SS at the same time or? <3 to Anet. I've been meaning to try and max out these titles. I'm hoping maybe for a double points weekend for Asura, Vanguard, Norn, and Dwarven points weekend sometime.

Yay yay yay!!!!

I lack ~20k for each to be max (they are both one rank off max) and this is a perfect opportunity to do both. Given the amount of PvP double rewards titles they have ran it's about time they finally did a PvP one.

To foxworthy21 - you can LB farm there if you haven't completed "A Show of Force". It allows you to kill 25 Margonites before spawning several bosses that give you a nice final bounty. If you still have "Requiem for a Brain" it is even faster (personally I do not have this quest on my main title hunter so I have to put up with it). If you don't at least have "A Show of Force" then you are mostly out of luck as the boss's it spawns are integral to the farm.

Lovely, right when I start the new monk that I was planning on using for title hunts and no hope of reaching it in time... I might finish up SS r10 on my Ele, probably not though.

For those who haven't reached the Desolation yet, I recommend you use the next few days to power into NF.

Even in NM H+H you could finish it within 3 days if you really work for it. And you won't need to get the quests for the SS/LB runs, plenty of people have them already.

You will of course need to have Hard Mode unlocked in NF.

I spent the past few days trying ranking up my Sunspear Title for hours each day.
Strangely though during that time I was thinking to myself when are they going to do another double SS and LB weekend.

I guess I got what I wanted + I can also build up my Lightbringer title as well.

But the classic SS/Lb runs are still much much faster.

Finally will be able to finish SS/LB (at 31k SS, 18k LB) on my paragon. That would put me one title away from R3 KoaBD.

Don't know about Lightbringer, but you definitely could do Sunspear. Even without the extras this weekend.

So, I'd do Lightbringer first. Get it while the getting's good.

Faster yes. But not as redunant if you already have SS and are just working on LB like I am. Also, the loot in the RoT is better. That... and playing HM in Gate of Fear is actually challenging... unlike c-spacing in the desolation with wurms, which can get kind of boring.

Good weekend for the folks that need it or to help others get it, I haven't managed to max out the SS/LB titles yet, But i'm not much of a grinder. Although weekend like this does let the non grinders wanna come out. BUT... only problam as like every weekend i can never attend them because of work. So once again i'm not able to take avantage of this. Really would wish Anet could do something to let players set there accounts up to what 2 days they wanna do stuff. Or something...

ANet should give better and more diverse quests and other things to make maxing this title enjoyable.

That the best and less painful way to max it is just dumb wurm farming shows that this title track is flawed to the core.

I hate LB farming with worms, sooo boring. Will be trying to break at least lvl 5 LB this weekend in the RoT...if the XP bonus helps enough maybe the next level too. Could try to beat NF so I could start HM and farm some SS too, but that might be too far out.

Aww, I've already done that quest. It's not always about time. The SS/LB run is soo boring I find myself after about three runs going afk for an hour to put it off. So, it actually takes me longer to do with the fast route rather than the slower route.
