Okay so umm, I basically bought the whole Guild Wars Trilogy and EotN purely for the sake of achieving points for GW2. I played Prophecies when it first came out but never really liked it and quit, although I must say Nightfall and Factions is way more interesting than Prophecies.
Anyway, my main goal is to get 30 HoM points. So I'll probably be doing a ton of stuff like getting all the Protector titles, possibly vanquisher and explorer titles too. Doing all the challenge quests in order to upgrade my heroes armor. Farming a ton of gold to get armor and minipets and a whole bunch of other stuff.
Would it be a wise idea to stick with my Elementalist to farm all these points, or would I be better off using another class such as maybe an Assasin or a Warrior and save more time with them?
Should I stick with my Elementalist for farming HoM points?

If you like playing your ele you should continue using it !

Well I do like my Elementalist. She's all pretty and wears pretty clothes. But I do feel she's very weak at times, especially against single and spread out targets, and dies very easily.
Ultimately though, my main goal is simply to earn HoM points. If another class has an easier and faster time killing mobs, running around, farming and completing quests, then I'd much rather play it. The only reason I'm playing the game is solely for HoM points.

Yeah go for a rit if you wanna do things fast and easy. Its really powerful against bosses.
You can also use multiple characters to fill you're HoM since it's account wide.
Sins are often used in elite areas where you can get lots of title points or filling HM books.

Well I do enjoy the game, but the main driving force is HoM points. I've got a Ritualist Hero in my party, planning to get a second one as soon as I aquire the next one. Would that be sufficient?

4 Spawning Power
Signet of Spirits | Bloodsong | Ancestor’s Rage | Painful Bond | Spirit Light | Mend Body And Soul | Spirit Siphon | Protective Was Kaolai

16 Communing

Signet of Ghostly Might | Pain | Boon of Creation | Shadowsong | Disenchantment | Dissonance | Anguish | Death Pact Signet

10 Soul Reaping
9 Protection Prayers
3 Curses
Aura of the Lich | Death Nova | Blood of the Master | Animate Bone Minions | Protective Spirit | Aegis | Masochism | Putrid Bile Also yes, I know they are account wide, but wouldn't it be more efficient to finish it on one character? Especially for title quests like Vanquisher, Explorer and Protector. I'm afraid my Elementalist won't be strong enough to finish these and would keep dying.
Furthermore a lot of HoM points require you to do quests or be in places which requires you to have reached a certain point in the storyline, and it's a bit time consuming to go through the storyline quests again on a new character.

A. Your ele probably isn't running Assassin's Promise or ER
B. You haven't seen the necro and mesmer armors (mesmers have the most variety of armors). Ritualist armor is meh.
C. HoM is accountwide.
D. You can easily get to 30/50 with an ele. Guardian, Vanquish, Reputation titles and etc.

Like everyone said, its completely up to you. You can have one title character, and have other characters to do other things on. My Warrior is my primary, hes r3 max titles, but i have a rit, sin, mes, ele, and monk i use to farm with. You DONT have to stick to one class for everything. You have plenty of time till the release GW2, so dont feel like you only have a limited ammount of time. Pick a class you enjoy playing. Ele's are very capable of doing PvE. It gets better when you run AP

I got 50/50 solely with my ele, she's gwamm and everything, if you want to roll your ele, do it, they're not the BOOOM everything explodes nukers they used to be, and other profs are WAY overpowering Ele's (I've said this like 50 times now lol) and they NEED a buff, but other ppl are saying they don't, but they're bunch of tossers anyway...
But yeah, with AP and some PvE skills you can roll through pretty much everything easily.. Depends on the bar, you can spam high damage air magic spells or something..
And, if you hape AP unlocked on your account, you can get it with an elite tome, which for assassins go anywhere between 2 and 3k so that shouldn't be a problem...

Even though the HoM is account wide, you NEED to complete some of the things on one character. The Cartographer, Vanquisher, and Protector/Guardian have a title for each campaign and a bonus one for having all three done on one character. You won't get Legendary Carto/etc unless you've got all three continents mapped on the one character. |
