Just one more title...

Very shortly I will gain my 29th max title, thanks to all the consumables I farmed over Wintersday.

Now I need to work on my last title to get to GWAMM, but I'm not sure where I should concentrate my efforts. I am strictly a PvE player, never had any desire to compete with others for fame and such. All mission titles are complete, all vanquishing, all cartography, EotN titles, NF titles, & Elite Caps. Survivor is out (I have had this toon before the title was even available), no LDoA (LOL), Zaishen - forget it - I sell my keys.

Here is what I have left that I can work on:

Lucky (4) at 750K
Unlucky (4) at 56K
Wisdom (4) at 2300
Treasure Hunter (4) at 1700
Kurzick (3) at 580K
Luxon (1) at 100K

I have a fair amount of gold, but no-where the amount it would take to buy the Wisdom title at 5K per 7 unid's. (about 5.5 mill 0.0).

Shall I just begin chest running (Southern Shiverpeaks, Vabbi, EotN) and hopefully combine the first 4 titles in my list and eventually one of them will get to max?

Or shall I dedicate time and farm one of the faction titles?

Any thoughts, techniques, or sage bits of wisdom are welcome. Thanks.

Why not just farm your own Unids? You can get an ele and farm vaiettirs and get about 35 unids in 1-2 hours.

Kurz/Lux titles are the easiest, so Kurz since you've already advanced to rank 3. Just go vanq'ing in Echovald. You'll be working on the first 4 titles as well that way.

I like the chest running idea. That's what I did. Now I'm near max on lucky, maxed treasure hunter, and so on for the related titles. You can decide from there if you want to max them or not. Plus it doesn't take as long as you think, and it starts paying for itself by selling the mods you get.

Id do the Kurz title. You can alternate between AB and JQ to keep yourself from dying of boredom.

Kurzick with vanquishes, do Luxon as you want as well. Since all that remains are account based, you don't need to stick to your main, so run the Canthan Vanquisher (the K/L parts that is) on all your characters - Faction missions as well (Guardian or not, books give cash, faction, and if you keep a good supply of Lockpicks, you can increase the other 4 titles).

All the titles you have left go with each other - aside from K/L, so work on Kurzick or Luxon and you can advance 5 titles, if you end up maxing them all, auto KoaBD on all characters.

438 retained opened chest = max lucky (from 750k). Go buy lockpicks and start chest running in noob areas for it.



Or, of course, you could go for max kurzick like everyone else is saying.

I think there is something very wrong in your calculations.....

Kurzick, if you want it quick (like others have mentioned)...

I went for treasure hunter (it took 3 months) since I wanted a more satisfying title to be my last.

I herd Wisdom pays can actually make you money if you sell all the mods and stuff. its like 700g/gold, and they sell to the merchant for 200+, plus mods and stuff, idk

I Would guess kurz is fastest, but the gain from it is terrible imo (advancement in certain skills). Personally I would advise you to do treasure, but unless you got enough cash to afford identifying your unids, you would have to sell those to get money to buy more lockpicks.

EDIT: Just wanna through it in there, keep in mind that opening 8300 more chests (which you need) would take roughly 166 hours.

Let's try this again using the math I know.

2,500,000 (max lucky points) - 750,000 (current level in this post) = 1,750,000 (points needed) / 250 (points per lockpick retention) = 7000 (retained lockpicks needed)

Whoops. My bad. Shows me to do math at 2am - I made two fundamental errors (at least). I was thinking that was a fairly small amount of chests to do for max lucky. >.<

I went for the wisdom title, buy unid armors in zos chivos channel AD1. I bought 8000 in a week, and it is easy to sell runes and insignias to the rune trader, buying normal unid's fills up your inventrory with mods which you have to sell. Runes make a nice money back. I think the total title cost me 1.2 mil. you can buy the unidéd armors for 1k each.
