Getting My Monk To Lvl 20, No Dying..
Arkantos
I created my monk in cantha, and I wanna know what the best way to get him to lvl 20 without dying is. I always seem to die, no matter what I do. Any tips?
moko
well, as a monk, you should obviously, try to get a team for every single quest you do. obviously, do your best there, else, if they die, you will too. :P if you want to use henchies..make sure to have the rit and monk with you, and some random damage dealer. most stuff will fall, its just gonna take a bit longer, but it will get the job done.
for a start, you can also level up to 4-5 from simple killing mantids outside of shing jae. then do all second profession quests. dont hesitate to buy new skills that will make it easier for you. then do the quests after, plus missions, and you'll be 18-19 when you get off shing jae. if you actually have prophecies, you can take the quest trouble in kryta for easy xp. for the last levels, the kaineng quests should give you more than enough. (dont finish those that will make the am fah unfriendly to you, thats only a bigger risk) - best to do is probably asking guildies for help at those quests, or taking hench and being careful, you are a monk, they shouldnt have too much trouble if you dont send them into suicide. :P
pretty easy, i got my monk to level 17, henched zen daijun, got a 5 minute lag and was dead after, lol. :P
gl with your survivor. hope you'll reach it the fair way without 55ing/SBing/PLing/whatever else

Always hold your standard up high. Do not accept people in your party who have lower than average level, for that particular quest. It is not impossible to have a party of all 15+ for the Zen Daijun mission. It is a tough one for a monk. There are still many monks there who think that breeze is enough.

Once you're level 20 with Survivor, are you able to die after that or do you still have to stay alive? I would find it rather difficult to beat the game without dying (jeez, my monk has died over 600 times in his career... A lot of that was probably from farming though)

I'm planning on going to the 2nd survivor title, or legendary. At lvl 20 im probably gonna just farm mino's though.
arcanemacabre
Oh boy. I was working on my monk for a while yesterday, having just gotten to Zen Daijun when I noticed that I hadn't died yet. I was just over halfway to Survivor (1). Well, now I wish I hadn't noticed that, cause I started playing extra cautious. Unfortunately, I made some bad decisions, and decided that my wife and I go ahead and try "The Captured Son"...
Yeah, I just suggest trying that when you're a much higher level. So, now I'm trying it with my new Ranger... We shall see! Nexium
just buy the letter much easier..
Jerich
I have done this three times now with a monk (died twice working on higher titles). Here is a pretty straight forward way to getting to level 20 on Shing Jae. I think it is pretty safe as long as you are decent with hench.
Getting to Suvivor 1 on Shing Jae Do you second proffessions quests, ignoring all other quests like belt pouch or Wulk Cragfist (you will be level 10 when you are done). (The second and first elementalist ones are the only dangerous ones) Do Minister Cho's estate. Do not get xp from the quest guy in minister Chos Do the two quests that get you to the next area and buy the 45 ac armor. Do the quest line that gets you to Zen Daijan. (Do not get the final xp reward at Zen Daijan). Grab Talon, Mai and Taja and farm Dragon Lilies till you are level 14. (Be carefull with the second afflicted pull until you are used to it. It can kill a level 11 if you screw it up) Go back to the monestary lands and finish all the quests you skipped. For the last part of Last Stand, go from the Gardens.... make sure to use a long bow for pulling The key is pull with the bow then immediately run away and let the mobs come to you. (check down below for Silent Kitties elaboration on this. She is the one that actually gave me this idea in a previous thread) Finish all the quests up to Zen Daijun. Two things to watch out for...The one where you get the box of trinkets from the naga. That guys spirit rift is terrible. Captured Son. Take it easy an use your bow to pull them away. I would take all ranged hench so it is easier to seprate them into small groups. You should be level 19 by the time you do Zen Daijun. At this point you should be able to do it without dying fairly easily, with hench. The two most dangerous things in Zen Daijun are the elementalist boss near the front and the ritualist boss near the end. The elementalist boss you can avoid by hugging the corner and taking the north path. The ritualist boss is ok as long as you clear his area fully and kill him before the ranger boss. Just run from spirit rift when you see it. Once you finish the attribute point quest you will be level 20. Congratulations! General Tips: Keep healing touch and orison and healing breeze memmed. Use touch on yourself if you start to take damage. Play with hench only unless you have friends you trust. PUGs are not playing the same game that you are, so they will not be as careful. Learn how to pull with hench and a long bow. and know when to take all range henched to an area. Picking ranger as your secondary can be nice early on. The pet helps with Tyrian Ascencion. After I got ascended armor I got acolytes (I plan to boon prot later on) and then used mending on myself. The extra 10 ac actually made a noticible difference on my survival margin in some places. Later on: if you plan to farm, you still need to cap some skills. The desert can all be done with hench (thirsty is hard, but possible). You might want to take a group for thirsty though. Hench dragon's lair because you don't want to do the bonus. If you are going to farm, don't do 55, do a spirit bond / protective spirit build It is much easier. A sample build for trolls woudl be: Protective Spirit, Spirit bond, Zealot's Fire, Shield of Judgement, Blessed Sig, Blessed Aura, Retribution and Balth Spirit. For minos, save your newbie armor, for trolls get 15 AC Shing Jae Ascetics. If you are caping SOJ, the safest route (I have done this twice with not dying), is to do the first mission then go to copper mines from iron mines. Then go to granite citidal and finally cap SOJ. An alternative to farming is to play factions normaly (with hench where possible) and cap every elite skill on the way. By the time you are near done, you will be close to max survivor. All you have to do then is go to Tyria, do the missions and cap skills. Dangerous Spots on the Way to Capping SOJ: DesertGetting to Dunes... make sure to take the eastern path around the zone. Watch out for the sand elementals and take them slow. Go from augry to Elona then Elona to Seekers, not Seekers to Elona. It is easier. Going from Seekers to Thirsty, watch out after the first teleporter. You can die easily if you do not pull the centaurs right. Northern Shiverpeaks Getting to the Granite Citidal, there are two nasty groups. One a hero groups of rock ice and another right outside of Grenth's footprint. Sometimes a third nasty group spawns outside of the citidal but you can engage your hench and run to zone to avoid this one. Be careful with the two first mentioned groups! In tasca's demise the first group can be kind of rough, take it slow. Also there is one group that could mean instant death if you do not split it. In Mineral Springs, the only real danger asides from overpulling are the groups of seven aviak fierce. Be exceedingly carefull with these and get ready to retreat if necessary. They can take down 3/4 your life in one volley if they decide to target you. Anyway, Good luck! I hoped this helped some. - Jerich Edit - Edited to make point number one more clear (thanks Silent Kitty) Edit - Edited to give Silent Kitty Credit for the bow part since I originaly learned the technique from one of her posts.

Why not do all other profession quests as well. You miss a whole lot of exp if you skip all these other profession quests. Also, the best way to pull with a bow, is to run away before the arrow hits.

I meant that you skip things like belt pouch and Wulk Cragfist so that you can do them later after you are already level 14. The reason for this is that it is hard to get to level 19 by Zen Daijun unless you save this experience for later. It is the same principal that people used to get to level 10 or 11 in presearing.

Don't put too many runes on, and use good AL armour (rather than energy set), and health or armour weapon/offhand. This is because the mobs target low armour and health. It's obvious that they target people with DP, but I noticed that in a group with 3 monks and various other casters, I didn't get hit once. Not once. Apparently I wasn't a priority, even though I was healing everyone, and standing in the middle of the group, they all ran past me to get to someone else.
The other monks were all wearing tats with 2 sup runes on them, so the mobs saw them as more squishy. As an experiment I changed armour set to some tats with more sup runes on, and the enemy warriors all ran straight for me. Also, if you were doing it in Prophecies I would say get a run to Drok's and get Drok's armour straight away, you'll be the very last on the priorities list, even the warriors will be more squishy. But doesn't work in Cantha.

If you want to make sure you don't die, your internet connection has to be super good. or james bond (007) will get you sooner or later. do this as soon as u know u are going to die, or the slightest hint that you are going to die, QUIT!
how to target an enemy without u running into them first, use tab to select the next enemy or \ to select the clocest enemy then target them, but half way cast a non-attack spell, this will make the hench run pass u to tank. i know u can use bow to pull them but if you are the first one they sees and there are enemy assassin around you will be the target even if u pull and run away, so far i've use the above method nicely. but needs practice if u haven't try it before. word of advice stop doing survivor title after u get lvl 1 which is easy, or the games becomes not fun. cos u spend lots of time running away instead of enjoying it.

Yeah, I just suggest trying that when you're a much higher level. So, now I'm trying it with my new Ranger... We shall see! Sentimental Treasure is also one to skip (spiking Ritualist) until a bit buffer. Uber Nostrum '2', with a second dragon mask will attest to that. Only good thing is now I have his starter armor for trying SB/Prot monk. 
Maxiemonster
You can also start in Tyria, especially if you'll get a powerlevel eventually.
Get out of Pre-Searing, get a run to Lion's Arch, go to Kaineng City and you already have 1.5K armor. Then get a run from Lion's Arch to Sanctum Cay and get a powerlevel in Elona Reach. After that, ascend and start capping Elite skills, get powerleveled even more (you can also go to Droknar's Forge now), or make yourself a SB/PS or 55 Health Monk and start powerleveling yourself (in this case, I advice solo'ing Minotaurs with a SB/PS build with Spiteful Spirit, which you can cap after getting to Droknar's Forge). Tve
Do everything with henches, human groups are generally a bad choice especially so early in the game. Even the most simple things can become a nightmare with them. Stay back like you would normally do as a monk, always call targets, and hench do the rest.
I did it with my Ritualist, with an average prot spirit build (Union, Shelter, ...), so maybe prot monk would be the best choice for you too. It was pretty simple, I was never in real danger. Just dont get spiked by 2 or more simultaneously exploding afflicted in Zen Daijun. This can kill you off quickly. Always try to get the best possible armor to reduce that risk. Just don't be lame and get powerleveled or farm or stuff. This way you may get the title, but you haven't earned it and can't say "yay I did it".  Those people that farm to get the title also look for a runner from Marketplace to Kaineng, you don't want to be one of them!
Maxiemonster
Getting the Legendary Survivor title is something else though. I'm pretty close to Survivor now, but I'm going to kill Minotaurs for the last 1,2 million experience

Better idea: F11 to go to options, make it so a single click only targets an enemy. Alternately, you can use C + Tab. Then when you want your henchmen to attack a mob, click a monster, and press Ctrl+Shift+Space. No spells, bows, or attacks needed.

Yes just call a target and henchmen will attack, you never need to fire a shot or begin to fire a shot.

Monkey Blonde
Back when I was collecting amulets, I rolled a few survivor monks, plus I've gotten my ele to Legendary Survivor, and am working on getting my survivor mesmer up to Legendary status. I always do it the same way.
On Shing Jae, I do all profession skill quests for all professions. As stated above, be very careful with the first ele duel quest. You will find it easiest to go to Tsumei and use the lvl 6 henches for all your questing needs, instead of the level 3's, from Shing Jae. Do the easier miscellaneous quests, except Seige at Tsumei (save for later). I've never bothered with Naga Source. Once I get my second profession, usually about level 9, I do the Minister Cho's estate mission. Take the henches (lvl 10) for the next 2 primary quests. I also do the quest where you escort the farmer or whoever back to Aerie at this time. Then, back to Togo, and go with Brother Pe Wan to Seitung Harbor. Don't let him get much ahead of you because he won't cause some mobs to spawn, and you will be left behind with your henches while he is attacked further ahead. Get armor at Seitung. Go back for Togo's Ultimatum. Clear up any other easy quests you haven't done yet, including the first 15 attribute point quest. Do the Insignia and the followup quest. Do Looking for Trouble and the primary quests to get to the second mission, Zen Daijun. Be careful with the quest where you have to fight off the onslaught. Stay with the NPC's and let them come to you. Everything to this point I always do with henches. If you go for a PUG for the mission, be particular with your group. Have they bought armor ? Hopefully, you can get at least 1 lvl 20 in the group who is there for the Protector title, although not necessary. This mission is also possible with henchies, especially if you either leave the melee out of the party, or know how to pull without them running to engage. Always pull mobs out of the miasma. Just be careful of the last 2 bosses, and do the Rit or whatever first. I don't remember the name, but it's the shorter name of the two. After the mission, get to Kaineng, get max armor, go to LA for a little more xp, and pick up any prophecies only skills you want. Take "The Search for a Cure" quest from Imperial Agent Hanjo in Kaineng. Leave from the marketplace and kill the first 3 Jade Brotherhood Knights and map back to Kaineng. Finish that quest, pick up the "Seeking out Brother Tosai", but just leave it active and do not complete it. Now, you can do enough quests outside of Kaineng and Marketplace that you can get level 20, without fighting hardly anything. There is a quest to kill 5 flesh golems in the undercity, which is easy. There is a quest to kill an assassin, which is easy. Other than that, if you find yourself having to go through red dots, there is an easier way to get where you are going. At some point, after levelling up to or near 20, go back and do the second 15 attribute point quest. Welcome to the ranks of Survivordom.

What does Tsunami Rain say about power leveling everyone dies and the one with most /deaths are Warriors.
Maxiemonster Got my first Survivor rank today Now it's time for the endless capping.. Let's hope I'll make it all the way!I got a run to and through the dessert (picked up 1.5K Acolyte's armor in Kaineng City on the way), then I got a run through Elona Reach and did Thirsty River and Dunes of Despair with Henchmen. Then I ascended and got myself to Droknar's Forge. Then I did some quests in Cantha and capped 6 Elite skills and got my first rank Well.. It's time for me to cap some Elites!

GJ I got my assassin to survivor, but then he died from major degen and lag in the undercity...

Got my Ranger to Survivor (1) yesterday. I'm so proud
. Still hasn't died and I just keep going. Did everything with henchies so far, except Zen Daijun, which I did with my wife because she hadn't gotten Masters yet. I must say, though, it seems the Ranger is one of the easiest to -not die- with. I've net even lost half my life due to anything. Having long range sure helps, as I don't seem to ever be the target of any foes. I was even able to use starter armor up till Seitung, then used that armor till Kaineng.I think as long as I keep Storm Chaser and Lightning Reflexes on my skillbar, I can always back out of a fight if need be. So I don't see myself dieing anytime soon, either.
