Geting Started
First of all I would like to wellcome everyone who is seriously interested in learning uses for the Paragon profession. Ok, first off we will want to choose our 30 titles to be, so that we get a clear course of what to do and where. Since we start off in Nightfall I think the most appropriate first title is Survivor, because you are unable to get Legendary Defender of Ascalon title. As of now, our primary and only objective would be not to die for 100~ levels, obviously.

Life of a Survivor
In this section I am going to try to recommend the best blends of skills to survive certain areas, mind you, I would like to express the need to have at least a few thousand points of Balthazar's Faction freed up and ready to use.

Surviving until you can get to a good farming spot will be undoubtably hard, in some cases ascension can be forgotten until after the title. Ok, you start in Chahbek Village, I recommend you try not to die during the shortcut path (do not take the tutorial because you can not be sure about the death count in the forced death mechanic). Chahbek Village mission is pretty straightforward, take some henchmen and Koss and just go run wild (If you die during this mission, I think you can give up on this section). Now you are in the Sunspear Encampment, try to grab a hold over all skills offered. Here comes the tricky part, you must be very carefull not to agro too many mobs when leveling to level 5, Popup mobs such as the mandragor and the higher level mobs can be quite a pain, so explore Plains of Jarin before you go there with the Paragon. Asuming you have honed your skilles and are ready to choose the secondary Profession I will go ahead and force you to the only presumably obvious choice: Paragon/Monk. This way you can map to the guild hall in time before death ocurs (Use rapid heal skills such as Restfull breeze, There is Nothing to Fear, Mending Reffrain, Healing Touch, etc.)

Here is the build that got me trough my first 20 levels (only 10 for you guys)

When you have reached level 10 without dying grab "Godspeed" and mending and go make the short but deadly trip into the north. I havent used more than this combo and I got (with dunkoro to maintain mending on everybody) to the asuran gate without even getting hit once. Yust spam godspeed and be on your way, the destroyers will not catch up...

Now in the boreal station grab a runner to the Eye of the North (the run is prety harmless so you shouldnt die if you have 2 monk heroes flaged near you). Once in the eye of the north, grab a Searing Flames elementalist team from the aliiance or just use Vekk and some henchmen (I'd recommend mehnlo and cynn, tahlkora if you have her and Dunkoro or Ogden. And then there is Lina and the others who provide usefull).

Here is the build that got me to Gunnar's hold alive and well.

Once in Gunnars Hold you can hardly fail the mission. Grab Lightbringer scrolls from the scroll trader and go do quest chains from Killroy Stonekin (I recommend getting to Fronis Irontoe's Dungeon and just repeat it). This method should get you to legendary survivor in about 1 week of constant EXP farming... (I recommend you kids get HM for Eye of the North, wich will speed things up and get a key bind for skill No.8 to another place on the keyboard, like 9, so that you can tripple hit "Stand UP!" (8,9,mouse click). This way i got up to 110 energy without dying.) Dont know waht I'm Talking about? See HERE<-link.

Way of the God
This is the part when people usually say:"Mister Muscolo, you ARE crazy, Paragons CAN'T run chest runs, this will take forever to open! I usually cry right afterwards and go chest running... with my paragon....

This is the build that can easily run Witman's Folly Southward of Dronkar's Forge:

This way you get gold drops and chest opener points.

Now decide for the other 27 titles, and how you will finish them: I recommend:

-Sweet Tooth

-Drunkard

-Sunspear

-Lightbringer

-Protector of Cantha

-Protector of Elona

-Protector of Tyria

-Cartographer of Cantha

-Cartographer of Elona

-Cartographer of Tyria

-Guradian of Tyria

-Guardian of Elona

-Guardian of Cantha

-Skill Hunter in Elona

-Skill Hunter in Cantha

-Skill Hunter in Tyria

-Vanquisher of Elona

-Vanquisher of Tyria

-Vanquisher of Cantha

-Legendary vanquisher

-Legendary skill hunter

-Legendary cartographer

-Legendary Guardian

-Master of the North

-Three allegiances you choose:
 * Dwarf
 * Asura
 * Norn
 * Ebon Vanguard

I recommend the skipping of Ebon Vanguard since you can farm dwarf rep points in killroy's quest and repeatable dungeons, asura points in the raptor cave near rata sum (take a 55 monk ferry or something), and you can and will farm points for the norn just outside olafstead) I didnt really bother with the ebon vanguard...
