Challenge to all the hardcore Pre-Searing people
Bristlebane
So now that you soon will be able to achieve Survivor in Pre-Searing... who will be the first player in history (or first to post proof on GWG1) to achieve Rank 1, Rank 2, and Rank 3 survivor?

And so it seems that it has become the true 'challenge'.
No hammers exploits, exp scrolls and Kilroys in pre, guys.

I'll try to do this, but doubt I'll be first. :P

Still to early to say how even such a challenge would be, there's a number of factors involved:
1. Total quest reward, which is probably the main source of xp.
2. The mobs you encounter spawned by the quests.
3. How hard the quests will be, some might be easy, some near impossible.
4. When to risk your survivor attempt for a high xp reward that might kill you.

eventually a gimmick will be found
as for "risking" survivor..... considering it seems your exp counter will just reset, there really isnt much of a risk to take anymore

Back in 2009 I leveled a pre character to 17 without dying. It took a lot of planning and not accepting any quest rewards until level 16 (so this means I had an empty skill bar until level 17)

Oh this is nifty

not gunna lie there was a player back along that had both legendary survivor and LDOA title
A11Eur0
And that player has since been banned for use of an exploit.
Ascended Furling
Its posible to get LS now in pre so im going for it. Only sad that i cant use my imp anymore then.
IoneB
Well I for one I'm going for "People know me" in pre-searing. I'm 6/10 so far
It was doable before but with 6 account titles and LDoA and the 3 money titles it should be fun. LS just adds now to the mix.

Very cool to know that people have such good head starts.
I probably won't do this if I make an Ldoa character.

LS will take forever in pre, lol. unless the daily quests end up having more the 1k exp a day 
dagrdagaz
Tried a pre-vanguard quest.
Gave up after a few minutes.
As they r now, i wont do them again.
The bounty today was a Grawl boss.
It turned out ALL Grawl in the same area are lvl10+
Also, the bounty boss has several spawn locations.
I can't be bothered to vanquish the entire area killing all these other high lvl Grawl to find the boss.
Also, the drops from these lvl10+ Grawl looked they were drops from near-lvl-zero foes.
Sure it may be easier then deathleveling to get XP.
But still.

I believe the only ones who will go for LS with a pre character are those who have nothing left to do in GW.......or are just really bored. Also, as someone else has said, unless the quests give out a decent amount of xp LS is going to take a looooooooooooooooooooong time to do in pre.

can any1 confirm wether vanguard still gives out quests when u reach level 20?

Also can you keep getting quest after quest (Stackable?) or do you have to finish one before you can get another?

Seems like you could be farming the spawns from the daily quest, no? Accept quest, kill spawns, abandon quest. Wash, rinse, repeat.
Or is there a mechanism in place to prevent players from doing this?
It's certainly not going to go quickly... but it would be faster than just relying on the quest reward XP alone.

Sorry for necroing this thread, figured it might be better than making a new topic about same subject.
Survivor(1) is rather easy, but did anyone actually managed rank 2 or 3 yet?

I have seen a survivor R2 or R3 around but I can't remember the names I'm sure if people look and ask around then someone will pop up with the title showing!

ACWhammy
Sorry but I don't believe it. And yes I have looked, and yes I have asked around. I have yet to see an r2 or r3 survivor
Wise Watchman
Vaguely recall seeing a rank 2 awhile back, not seen any rank 3 but I don't spend much time in pre these days.
Kolinahr
To my knowledge, I am the first, and only, rank 2 survivor in Pre-Searing with my mesmer Pre Sentiment.

I died several days later at 652,395 xp due to my computer freezing/locking up.

Borat was the first player to have both titles, its been 5y+ now since he got them.
