With the help of XP scrolls, the Legendary Survivor title may be gained within 10 hours from character creation. Considering Guildwiki states the average time to reach Legendary Survivor while questing is 104 hours, the numbers look pretty good.

The bulk of the guide pre-dates the release of the Eye of the North expansion pack and Wajjun Bazaar is no longer the safest or easiest way to farm the title. The best spot to do it now is Kilroy Stonekin's Punch-Out Extravaganza. I've left the Wajjun Bazaar Legendary Survivor Team information intact because the XP gain is still right up there (up to 72,000XP per run) and if nothing else, the guide can be used as an introduction to the principles of 600 / Smite farming with a hero.

Hands down the easiest way to gain the Legendary Survivor title is to level your character to Level 10 and complete the EoTN intro quest from Lion's Arch, Kamadan or Kaineng Center (Nightfall is the easiest, Factions is the hardest). Any class & campaign will do. Once you accept the quest you gain the Journey to the North buff which boosts your health and attributes temporarily to that of a Level 20 character. Simply complete the quest & run your character with Heroes/Henchies to Eye of the North, you should encounter only two or three mobs which are easily dispatched. Then run north to Gunnar's Hold, again only one or two mobs will cross your path. Speak with Kilroy, accept the quest and get ready to rumble. All up, it should take about 30 mins to reach the spot after accepting the intro quest.

The quest is tailor made for Legendary Survivor farming - it's solo, repeatable, has great XP (20,000XP per 7 min run in HM, more with scrolls) and is difficult to fail - you get knocked out instead of dying so as long as you spam Stand Up! before the timer runs out, you'll farm the title with ease. If you fail to stand up in time, you will die and you'll lose your shot at the LS title. There is also a small risk of lag robbing you of your title, besides that it's completely idiot proof. To speed things along, buy max armor and wear customised Thunderfist's Brass Knuckles (received after completing the Kilroy Stonekin quest chain) and do the quest in Hard Mode. To access Hard Mode, complete EoTN with another character on your account. Read Mickey's tips to get the most out of the run, he's made 6 Legendary Survivors farming Kilroy and knows his stuff.

---------------------------------------------------------------

Prior to EoTN, farming Jade Brotherhood in Wajjun Bazaar was in my view the safest, quickest, most flexible and easiest way to farm the Survivor title. The Wajjun Bazaar run is easy to get to from any campaign, is easy to do with any Mo/X or X/Mo (other classes can do the run with alternate bonders, see Part Three) and the build is safe as a bank. There are other locations in Nightfall, Prophecies and GW:EN that may be XP farmed relatively easily, i'ved added those spots to Part Three of the guide.

This guide assumes you have all three campaigns on a linked account for all required skills, have Nightfall for the Heroes and have completed Factions with at least one character to unlock Hard Mode at lvl20. All skills are accessible (assuming you've unlocked them) from Kamadan, Lion's Arch and Kaineng Center. If not, unlock them in PvP, buy the PvP editions to unlock all skills, use tomes, or get them however you normally get them.

Part One, The Legendary Survivor Team Build is outlined below.
Part Two, Where and How to use the Legendary Survivor Build continues in the third post of the thread.
Part Three, Other Classes and XP Farming Locations is the fifth post of the thread.
=================================== ==============

The Build

Only 6 skills are essential across two characters. The Recommended and Optional skills provide extra HP and regen, making the run substantially safer. At a minimum take Spirit Bond, Protective Spirit, Balthazar's Spirit and Essence Bond on your character, and Holy Wrath + Retribution on your Hero. Protective Spirit may appear obsolete at 2000+ HP, but if you drift out of Symbiosis you're in world of hurt without it.

Heroes

=================================== ==============

How it Works

The build is based on a simple concept - the more damage you receive, the more you heal, the more pain you return and the faster you complete the run. These same principles are seen to good effect in the 600/Smiter builds, so the concept is nothing new.

The LS team is built upon the following game mechanics -

* Jade Knights in Hard Mode hit for up to 256 damage at 0AL. To reduce it to a manageable level, use Life Barrier for up to 52% damage reduction. At 122 per hit received, this is well above the threshold to trigger max damage from Holy Wrath & Retribution as wel as max Spirit Bond heals.
* Spirit Bond combined with Life Attunement and Aura of Faith heals up to 187HP multiple times per second, easily outhealing all damage. SB won't trigger on all hits, but will always trigger on Triple Chop, Cyclone Axe and Furious Axe hits from the Jade Knights (about 2 or 3 hits per second).
* Holy Wrath and Retribution returns up up to 99% of the damage, to a maximum of 71 damage per hit received.
* Jade Knights hit 50% faster in Hard Mode - you'll receive plenty of hits triggering Spirit Bond heals, and return plenty of damage via Holy Wrath and Retribution. This kills the Jades in 10-15 seconds and keeps your health maxed out.
* Symbiosis combined with up to 15 enchantments on your character provides a massive health buffer of over 2000 HP. High HP compensates for poor timing, miscasts and lag, making the Easy Run incredibly easy.
* Jades give up to 750XP each with scrolls in HM. Your heroes are flagged out of your agro circle, so you get all XP.

=================================== ==============

Your Character

Attributes (at level 20)

Protection: 12
Attribute of your elite / damage line: 12

At levels lower than 20 max out Protection before putting points into other attributes. Drop leftovers into energy management - Divine Favor, Soul Reaping, Energy Storage, Expertise, Critical Strikes, Leadership etc.

Equipment

Armour - To get the most damage and healing out of the build wear starter armour. Ascalon City / Shing Jea / Kamadan armour will do just fine if you destroyed your starter kit. The build will work with max AL however it's better to take no more than AL35 +20 vs physical for Warriors, no more than AL35 for Paragon and no more than AL30 for other classes. Wear starter armour or up to AL15 in Normal Mode.

Weapons - +15 energy, 20%/+1 skill or +20% enchantments are a plus but not required. Paragon and Dervish consider taking an Icy Soulbreaker of Enchanting. Assassins take Sundering or Zealous daggers if you have them. Other classes should consider the Totem Axe, Insightful Spiritbinder or the Hourglass Staff.

Runes - Minor/Major/Superior head runes of damage line if desired. Use HP boosting Vigor, Vitae and Survivor runes, or Radiants and Attunements on all other armour pieces.

Scrolls - Rampager's Insight scrolls (double XP, must kill an enemy every 30 secs) or for the less foolhardy, Hunter's Insight scrolls (175% XP, kill boss every 5 mins). For the wealthy, take Slayer's Insight scrolls (250% XP, kill boss every 5 mins).

Hot Tip - If you find yourself short on cash, consider farming Factions bosses like Byzzr Wingmender with another character in HM for scrolls. You need to complete Factions to enable HM so should already have another character on your account to farm scrolls for your survivor. Use a N/X or X/N

Skillbar

All Mo/X and X/Mo skillbars have the following skills in common -

If running the Single Hero Bonder (see below), Warriors and Paragons will need to drop Vital Blessing. All classes may drop Vital Blessing in favour of a +27 energy / -1 regen offhand.

On the Easy Run (see Part Two below) you can get away with just the skills listed above on your character, and




Prophecies Holy Wrath

* 2
* 10
* -1

Enchantment Spell. While you maintain this Enchantment, whenever target ally takes attack damage, this Spell deals 66% of the damage back to the source (maximum of 5..41..53 damage), and you lose 10 Energy. (Attrib: Smiting Prayers)


and




Core Retribution

* 2
* 10
* -1

Enchantment Spell. While you maintain this Enchantment, whenever target ally takes attack damage, this Spell deals 33% of the damage back to the source (maximum 5..17..21 damage). (Attrib: Smiting Prayers)


on one Hero. The smite bonds will inflict enough damage to take down the Jade Knights within 10-15 seconds. You'll spend most of your time concentrating on recasting Spirit Bond, therefore attacks and elites are optional. Only use attack skills once you're used to the run, or just stick to recasting Protective Spirit and Spirit Bond as needed. There's no need for additional defensive skills to block, increase armour or reduce damage - they will only slow down your run.

This skillbar works well for all X/Mo classes -





Core Protective Spirit

If you're running a Nightfall toon with low-level Heroes, dump at least 10 points into Protection then distribute the rest into Smiting (for Holy Wrath & Retribution) and Beast Mastery (for Symbiosis).

Equip your heroes with Kepkhet's Refuge, Hourglass Staff or Insightful Spiritbinder and superior runes if you have them.

Location

The run takes place just outside The Marketplace in Wajjun Bazaar. This is how to get there safely from all three campaigns -

Prophecies

Create your character, any primary will do. Quest in Pre-searing until you can take a secondary profession and choose Monk. Leave Pre-searing and hitch a run from Ascalon City to Lion's Arch, Complete Sunspears in Kryta to get to Kamadan, head to the Plains of Jarin to meet with Kormir and pick up your lvl 15 monk heroes. Triple Bonders are recommended for the Hard Run so Grab Acolyte Jin on the quest Zaishen Elite - it can be done straight after picking up your monks, just head up the hill to get the quest. You get Sousuke after completing Nightfall so the loss is only temporary, Olias makes a great backup Searing Flamer. That's all we need to do in Nightfall.

Complete Mhenlo's Request to get to Kaineng Centre. It can take as little as 3 to 4 hours from character creation to reach The Marketplace. You can potentially get there at very low levels but it's advisable to be at least lvl 5 to have enough skillpoints available to pick up required skills. For low levels, add another hour or two to the time it'll take to get the title.

Risky bits -

1. Avoid the PvP battle when leaving Pre-searing by logging out before battle begins, then logging back in.
2. Beware of two patrolling mobs of Charr outside Grendich Courthouse on the run to Lion's Arch.
3. Don't agro the mobs of Minotaurs near the entrance to Anvil Rock on the run to Lion's Arch.
4. Trolls can pass through the portal at Deldrimor Bowl / Griffin's Mouth on the run to Lion's Arch.
5. The Mergoyle patrols can cause problems in Scoundrel's Rise on the run to Lion's Arch.
6. Sunspears in Kryta quest is potentially nasty without help. Have a lvl 20 friend complete the quest for you while you avoid agro. It's an easy quest for a 20 + Heroes, but not easy if you choose to do it with the crappy henchies in LA.
7. Running from Kaineng Centre to The Marketplace can be problematic - don't accept any quests in Kaineng and it's a clear run if soloing with Henchies. Otherwise, get a runner.


Factions -

Create your character, any primary will do. Shing Jea Island offers the most XP up front and you want to end up in The Marketplace anyway, so it's a logical starting point. Do all secondary profession missions straight away - they're a piece of cake and only take 90 mins. Take Monk as your secondary profession. From this point on, just do the main missions and you'll arrive safely at The Marketplace within 4 hours from character creation.

Run to Kaineng Centre and take Chaos in Kryta to get to Lion's Arch and buy any required Prophecies skills. Complete Sunspears In Kryta to get to Kamadan, head to the Plains of Jarin to meet with Kormir and pick up your lvl 15 monk heroes. Triple Bonders are recommended for the Hard Run so Grab Acolyte Jin on the quest Zaishen Elite - it can be done straight after picking up your monks, just head up the hill to get the quest. You get Sousuke after completing Nightfall so the loss is only temporary, Olias makes a great backup Searing Flamer. That's all we need to do in Nightfall and Prophecies. You'll be about lvl 13 and 5 hours old when ready to start the run back at The Marketplace.

Risky bits -

1. Bone Collector spikes during the Necromancer mission, Track Down Su.
2. The Captured Son quest is best avoided.
3. The Afflicted Senku assassin boss can spike you during the quest To Zen Daijun.
4. The Afflicted Yijo ritualist boss can spike you during the mission Zen Daijun.
5. DO NOT take the Sunspears in Cantha quest! Head to Lion's Arch and do the much easier Sunspears in Kryta quest instead. Have a lvl 20 friend with Heroes complete the quest for you while you avoid agro. It's an easy quest for a 20 + Heroes, but not easy if you choose to do it with the crappy henchies in LA.
6. Run straight past the afflicted mob near Kaineng Center on the run from The Marketplace. Load up on henchies and flag them into the mob while you Robby Rocketpants it outta there!


Nightfall -

Create your character, any primary will do. Quest until lvl 5 and take Monk as your secondary profession. At this point there are two ways to go -

1. Do the quests to pick up Dunkoro and Koss, get a ferry to Consulate Docks, then tag along to Lion's Arch if you're lucky enough to find someone with an active Terror in Tyria quest. From Lion's Arch, take Mhenlo's Request to get to Cantha. Map jump to Kaineng Centre and get a run to The Marketplace. Getting to The Marketplace early will leave you with low level heroes (less than the lvl 15 heroes that Prophecies and Factions characters receive) and potentially only one monk, making it risky to complete even the easy run.
2. Get a ferry to Consulate Docks and purchase max armour, keep your starter set for use at The Marketplace. Complete all quests up to and including The Time is Nigh to pick up Koss, Dunkoro, Melonni and Tahlkora along the way. Triple Bonders are recommended for the Hard Run, so Grab Acolyte Jin on the quest Zaishen Elite - it can be done after Bad Tide Rising. You get Sousuke after completing Nightfall so the loss is only temporary, Olias makes a great backup Searing Flamer. Take a full party at all times - it's easy to stay alive in Istan with max AL, two monks and the motivation henchmen. You'll be finished in 8 to 10 hours and you, Dunkoro and Tahlkora will be lvl 14 or 15 by the time you get to The Marketplace. The quests to get to Lion's Gate and Kaineng Center are passive so it's probably the safest way to get to the run, despite taking the longest time.


Risky bits -

1. The blocks dropping from the ceiling in Jokanur Diggings will not affect your Survivor title, but just beware of them.
2. The quest A Decayed Monument is best avoided.
3. Agroing more than one Frigid Skale, Skale Blighter or Stoneflesh Mandragor. Take them down first and quickly - a low level party can be wiped by their AoE attacks.
4. Running from Kaineng Centre to The Marketplace can be problematic - don't accept any quests in Kaineng and it's a clear run if soloing with Henchies. Otherwise, get a runner.

=================================== ===============

The Run

Rules of Engagement

To do the run successfully and with a minimum risk of dying it's important to understand a few things -

1. Keep Spirit Bond up at all time but do not spam - Spirit Bond will drop after 10 hits. Wait until the icon blinks or the spell has ended before recasting.
2. Set your Heroes to Passive and flag them away from battle and out of your agro circle - this keeps them safe which keeps you alive and ensures you don't share any XP with them. Beware if heroes are too far away and no longer visible on your radar screen, all bonds will break.
3. Stay within Symbiosis' area of effect - if you sustain a lot of damage from the first mob you could find yourself running to the second mob with 1HP. After killing the first mob move the heroes to you, reflag, recast Symbiosis, then attack the second mob.
4. Keep Symbiosis up at all times - If you take damage and Symbiosis drops while you're still in battle, you're dead on the next hit.
5. Do not attack while heroes are in your agro circle - the Jade Knights will run past you and kill your bonders. If they drop, you're as good as dead so log out if your heroes are attacked.
6. Shift-click to disable all bonding skills on your heroes- Cast all enchantments on yourself manually, otherwise Heroes drop the bonds.
7. Lag is your enemy - if your ping is 400+ms it can be a hairy ride. To lower your ping try International Districts. Avoid major event weekends when farming the LS title, they cause major lag and may result in your death.
8. Map 'Log Out' to the Spacebar for a quick double-tap escape - don't hesitate to abort a run if you head near 25% health or you get any signs of lag - hesitating will get you killed. This is by far the quickest and easiest way to get out of Dodge - mash your keyboard twice and you're out. Spacebar is the biggest and easiest key to find so it's the best key for the job.
9. Practice with a non-Survivor character - get used to the run and the skillbars without risking your title.

----------------------------------------------------------------

Easy Run- Very safe for Survivor.

Start off in The Marketplace, zone into Wajjun Bazaar, use Berserker's or Hunter's Insight Scrolls and farm only the first 6 Jade Brotherhood Knights, rinse and repeat. If your HP drops to 25% log out.

As soon as you warp to Wajjun Bazaar, drop Symbiosis (don't leave its area of effect) and cast all enchants on yourself. Make sure you Shift-clicked your Hero/es bonding skills to disable them, then cast them on yourself. Plant the Hero/es flag near the warp to The Marketplace, out of your agro circle away from battle, but not off your radar. Use your scroll of choice, and prepare to Leeroy Jenkins your way to Legendary Survivor within 8 to 9 hours.

In battle focus on recasting Spirit Bond and Protective Spirit. Once the first mob drops, move your Heroes to your location and re-flag. This is to ensure you don't run to the next mob with 1hp, which can happen if you've taken a lot of damage.

** View the Easy Run on YouTube using an early testing build. **

XP Gain: 70 - 90 secs per run for 3600XP with Rampager's Insight scrolls, giving up to 144,000 XP / hour. Without scrolls - 1800 XP per run for up to 72000 XP per hour.
----------------------------------------------------------------

Moderate Run- Dangerous to Survivors with high pings due to Mesmers - 3 interrupts in a row will kill you.

Once your comfortable with the easy run, graduate to the moderate run for a more rewarding challenge - better XP and the chance of a green or elite Ele tome drop. A Mo/Me or Me/Mo does the Moderate run with have few problems - take Mantra of Resolve to avoid interrupts, Backfire and Empathy and to own the Rits. If your HP drops to 25% log out.

Use Hunter's Insight scrolls, take Dual Bonders and farm the first 20 Jade Brotherhood including the ele boss Lian, Dragon's Petal
Lian, Dragon's Petal

Location(s)
- Wajjun Bazaar

Green Item(s)

. Take out the first 6 Knight's as above then run down the path towards the next mob. Care needs to be taken about placement of Symbiosis - flag heroes them at the bottom of the rise before you get to Lian. Any further may get them killed by a Jade Mage patrol, take them out before attacking Lian's group.

In battle focus on recasting Spirit Bond and Protective Spirit. A Mesmer is the biggest threat and will interrupt Spirit Bond, so stay within Symbiosis' area of effect. Once the mob drops, attack the Ritualist. It can be tough to kill and can take a minute, unless running a Domination Me/Mo or Mo/Me (they drop in seconds).

** View the Moderate Run on YouTube (first 3.5 mins of video is the Moderate Run). **

XP Gain: 3 - 5 mins per run for 11361 XP with Hunter's Insight scrolls, giving up to 227,220 XP / hour. Without scrolls - 6492 XP per run for up to 129840 XP per hour.
----------------------------------------------------------------

Hard Run- Very risky for Survivors due to large mobs with multiple Mesmers and 1500HP spikes. Best done as Mo/Me or Me/Mo.

Unless you're a Me/Mo or Mo/Me consider sticking with the Moderate Run and leave the Hard Run to skill point farmers. It's not overly difficult, but things get tougher against multiple Mesmers. You'll often need to spam Spirit Bond against 1500HP spikes so a Mo/Me or Me/Mo with Mantra of Resolve is the best choice for the run. If you have a green ping you should be ok, just don't over-agro or rush to beat the clock. If your HP drops to 25% log out.

Use Hunter's Insight scrolls, take Dual or Triple Bonders and farm the first 36 Jade Brotherhood. Do the first 6 Knights then take out Lian and the surrounding mobs as outlined above. The final target is the large mob just across the first bridge to the island in the north-west. Flag the heroes near the entrance to the bridge and recast Symbiosis. Don't park them right at the bridge entrance - depending on the spawn you'll face up to 15 Jades at once. The Knights may scatter along the bridge and will head for your bonders if they're too close.

In battle focus on recasting Spirit Bond and Protective Spirit. Two Ritualists can take up to 2 mins to kill (unless packing Backfire and Empathy) - if you're having trouble, it's quicker to zone back to The Marketplace with less than 36 kills to complete more runs in the same time.

** View the Hard Run on YouTube. **

XP Gain: 5 - 7 minutes per run for 19761 XP with Hunter's Insight scrolls, giving up to 237,132 XP / hour. Without scrolls - 11262 XP per run for up to 135144 XP per hour.
=================================== ===============

The Grind

The title can be completed in 19 runs using 38 Slayer's scrolls in 5 hours.

A Mo/Me or Me/Mo and Triple Bonders can easily farm all 95-100 Jade Brotherhood in the area in 20 mins for 72,000XP using two or three Slayer's Insight scrolls per run. It takes 10-12 mins for the first 60 (about 44500XP) and 15-17 mins for the first 80 (about 58500XP). You average 220,000 to 240,000XP / hr with less zoning, less merching, less outlay on scrolls, less repetition and less boredom.

The calculations below take into account that most people cannot afford gold scrolls like Lightbringer's and Slayer's, but can afford the cheap blue scrolls available in The Marketplace. Numbers are also calculated without the XP bonus from scrolls for the less affluent among us.

Keep in mind you do not share XP with Heroes and Henchies if they are not within your agro circle, which is why there is no penalty using this build (other than lower drops...we're farming XP so that shouldn't matter).
