Earning Lightbringer points
There are multiple ways to earn Lightbringer points:
 * quest and mission rewards (see here)
 * killing certain monsters while under the effect of a bounty given by a Whispers Informant
 * turning in certain books (Night Falls or Young Heroes of Tyria) to the Source of Whispers
 * vanquishing areas in Vabbi and The Desolation.

Lightbringer effect
You obtain this status effect from this title after earning Lightbringer rank 1 and then talking to the Seeker of Whispers in the Chantry of Secrets. It is recommended you display this title when fighting demon types (see Lightbringer skills below).

Notes:
 * If you equipped the title before obtaining the status effect from the Seeker of Whispers, you can't benefit from it until you un-check it and then check-mark it again.
 * The damage bonus does apply to certain armor-ignoring damage types (such as that dealt by Energy Surge, Chaos Storm, and Pain Inverter).
 * Displaying this title confers its effects on your character and your Heroes. The bonus effect is applied at the end of skill activation, so if you change your title during an activation, the resulting effect will be related to your new title status.

Lightbringer skills
The following PVE-only skills can be acquired from the Seeker of Whispers:


 * (requires Lightbringer rank 2)
 * (rank 3)

These skills are used to combat "Abaddon and his demonic servants" in the Nightfall campaign and increase in effectiveness along with the Lightbringer rank. The skills (and the Lightbringer effect available when displaying the title) work against the following:


 * Margonites
 * All Shadow Army units in the Nightfall campaign (but not in the Fissure of Woe)
 * Stygians
 * The Blasphemy and Unbound Energies
 * All Nightfall-exclusive Titans (but not Prophecies-exclusive Titans or Titans in both Prophecies and Nightfall).
 * Torment creatures (with the exception of Grasps of Insanity, Wrathful Storms, and Scythe of Chaos Mesmers)
 * Tortureweb Dryders and the Emissaries of Dhuum, but not Terrorweb Dryders or other Dryders
 * Abaddon himself

Hero skill points
Rising in Lightbringer ranks awards Hero skill points. With these, skills can be bought from Hero skill trainers for the character and will be unlocked for all heroes and PvP characters.
