What I did for the lulz, I stood next to Wynn in the training circle of the Zaishen Menagerie, don't put any self heals on your bar and see how many waves of aggressive ravens you can fight off before you're dead.

This is how my survivor died a long time ago. I should've checked the /age before I was Decapitated but it seems I forgot to. But it's enough that I, my executioner and my audience knew it was my first death.

Epic deaths usually include things like:
- Self-sacrifice. You die, the rest of the party survives.
- Giant Enemy (Crab). Against an extremely big or dangerous enemy, you die, but you also defeat the enemy with your last breath.
- Crowds. You die after surviving for a while when massively outnumbered.

So, epic deaths would be things like:
- Join a PUG for Great Northern Wall in HM, and stay behind to hold the Charr. Suvive just until the very end, and die right before a party member reaches the end.
- Prevent Saidra's death at the cost of your own life.
- Hold the White Mantle attack at the end of Sanctum Key, when the boat is summoned and the party rides it, instead riding it too, stay behind and hold the enemies, dying in the process.
- Distract the enemy party during the portal races in Aurora Glade, and get killed by the combined forces of all enemy parties, while the rest of the party defeats the Demagogue.
- Tag along Brechnar Ironhammer when he runs to distract the Mursaat.
- Defeat a Monstruous Afflicted by yourself, but get killed by the soul explosion.
- Land a Final Blow that kills Glint, but get killed by her Jagged Crystal Skin at the same time.

Epic deaths:

1) Reach survivor then as about to leave the outpost and die get dhummed
2) Auction off your death
3) /dance at Abbadon (

I highly suggest this one)
4) High end dungeon chest (ie eotn chest), open and get a rare weapon. Everyone else leaves and you can't get drop
5) Die while defending Kurz or Lux (Eternal grove vs gayla hatchery)
6) Die asap after entering UW
7) Having a vengeful aaxte kill you in the underworld
8) Grab as much aggro in dwarven boxing dungeon and hold out until you can't anymore
9) Go DoA, have a tank ball everything. Run on in

10) Try to navigate the desolation
11) try to hold off the destroyer horde in the quest that gets you to eotn
12) BfLA

Those remind me of the first times I went through missions, and they felt so much more epic before I knew every game mechanic by heart.

Many of the suggestions involve some active play, or could cause some experience gain that would defeat the purpose...

some preparations needed

-55hp set
-a drink from the chalice of corruption
-a dual vamp wep
-sprint

Plan: join a heroes ascent group, just before you go in, switch bar to one that only has sprint. equip dual vamp and 55hp armor.
-> you enter the area where you have to kill the group of zaishen enemies asap. Start sprinting immediately to die just before you reach the enemies.

Those calculations are calculatory.

As stated previously, deaths due to Quickening Terrain thankfully do not count against the Survivor title.

It doesn't only if death occurs while in an outpost.

Fair enough, but the poster said to die in the guild hall, so my original post stands

I have also gotten Legendary Survivor (on two characters) to exactly 1,337,500

Unfortunately, I didn't plan on dying in an sort of 'epic' way :/

I haven't killed my survivor yet, but I always liked the idea of going to some quiet explorable area (I would personally use Augury Rock section before the doppelganger) and sitting down with a vampiric weapon until it's done.

This wasnt a survivor, but I still laughed when it happened: I was solofarming, a snow wurm popped up. I defeated it and afterwards died from wurm bile and poison.
This is actually how the nordic god Thor is supposed to die in Ragnarok, when the world ends, according to the myth. Battle the giant wurm, defeat it and then die from it's poison.

If I was going to do it, I'd like to finish THK then stand in one of the impact craters and get a friend to use the appropriate catapult.......

Actually it was a serpent, Jormugand (AND I DON'T CARE IF THERE IS A WURM BOSS OF THE SAME NAME, IN GAME).

You have shamed your ancestors to the point that I think this is the reason they set their wives on fire along with their boats carrying their corpses.

That's right, you mass murderer!

1) Bring Mo/ and /Mo heroes.
2) Apply every bond in the game.
3) Gather aggro, muchly.
4) Flag heroes off map and watch horde of monsters plough you into the soil as bonds drop.
5) Post screenshots and / or video.

I will bring the popcorn.
