I'm used to people "spiking" a few titles at one to flood the chat in certain outposts, I did it myself with 4 titles leading up to GWAMM but I haven't seen anything like this before.

Saw this in Kamadan a while ago, just rediscovered it in my screenshot folder. It appears to be 9 characters owned by the same person (they all had the same surname with different forenames) earned GWAMM one after another, iirc there was around a 15 second delay between each one. I tried to PM them but the character changes were going too quickly.

A few thoughts

-Photoshopped?
-More than one person with -"Du Pont", a guild of friends?
-Olympic Level Geek, manifestation on the mortal plain of the god of virginity
-Are you this du pont?

She's been playing for 12 months 11 hours every day! (mathematically)

Those ppl have GW and nothing else.

-Possibly, but then i'd've expected all the characters online at once and synced at exactly the same time rather then every 15 or so seconds.
-Possibly.
-No

I wonder if the spike would work for all your characters at once if you got your 30th title with an account wide title? Or would you still need to log on to each of them?

its either a server spas moment or a group of friends with same name end cause its just the same titles over and over. Or as someone else has said photoshoped image

Or as someone else has said photoshoped image Like I said, if it was a group surely they'd all have got the title at the exact same time, there was a delay which implies one guy changing characters to use an Elite Tome on each to me.

I have no way of proving it isn't shopped, I have the original, uncropped and uncensored screenshot but that's not really going to prove anything.

Not a photoshop,
and you can see the names are slightly misaligned so it's a group of people (or characters)

I dont think its a group of people down to the fact that "they all where in range of the GWAMM", don't think I could dedicate myself to that point with a group of ppl and stick to the plan, not to mention the names, but who knows? Either way its realy nice spike Good Game and Well Played!!1!!1!

Makes me wonder...what boss was he able to kill and cap an elite off of every 15 seconds?
To my knowledge there are no bosses that close to any town.

I used this screenshot as an example to my daughter. She thinks I play GW too much. I was able to give her a comparison.

People are so judgmental. If the person with the 8 characters had a terminal illness and couldn't do anything but play GW, you'd feel like shit for hating. I've played stuff where some players I've met literally play just because they can't do anything else (wheelchair bound or whatever).

It's quite an achievement. Would I kill myself to do the same? No. Am I going to be like "this person has no life"? No.

Elite Tome..... You do know that regardless of that, I did still say at the same time. That you cannot be logged into 2 or more character on the same. That was just my point, to those who would think somebody could do such.
