Talk:Norn Title Track

"Defeating each Norn in an area for the first time results in 25 Norn reputation points. (This can only be done once per Norn per area. This can however be repeated if you are with a player who hasn't fought that Norn yet.)" Just tested this with a friend who bought GWEN today. While you will get the message that says your reputation improved, the bar will make no progress. Going to remove the notice. RavenValcone 00:38, 17 September 2007 (CDT)

easy way to get it to talk at shrine for one,fight,rezone and repeat!


 * This doesn't work. Once you beat a Norn warrior, they will simply hand out the Blessing instead of fighting you again.Cyruis 16:11, 24 August 2007 (CDT)

There is one missing - Slayer of Wurms - Darko

How do people know all the way up to the final rank already? If this title is THAT eaisly farmed, let me know, I didn't preorder. 75.45.81.201 13:20, 24 August 2007 (CDT)


 * I knew because one of the people wouldn't offer their services to me unless I had "slayer of wurms", It wasn't up here so that's why i said - Darko

Slayer of Heroes?
Ok, so trying to talk to the armor guy and he says you must be Slayer of Heroes to talk to him... Anyone made it there yet lol? --Cvmyawg 16:23, 24 August 2007 (CDT)

Let's hope it follows Demons, for a mere 80000-1000000 reputation. I'm expecting elite armour, and it had better look cool.
 * It doesnt - Yellow Monkey 19:32, 24 August 2007 (CDT)


 * Displaying the title raises your maximum health according to Tyr the Skald in Gunnar's Hold -Enkil

Slayer of Beasts is +60hp 65.41.245.139 23:57, 24 August 2007 (CDT)


 * theres a bug with this health boost...my guildie and I currently do not have the health boost, and 2 other guildies do have it, i have the highest rank among them as well and yet no boost to health. on a slightly odd note we have noticed the 2 guildies having the health bonus are female chars, and the two that dont have the health bonus are male chars O.o gender bias?
 * Talk to the norn storyteller. It's like lightbringer.  Getting the points isn't enough, you need to be given the effect. --24.179.151.252 06:04, 25 August 2007 (CDT)
 * And where is the Norn Storyteller ? Foo 07:14, 25 August 2007 (CDT)
 * Gunnar's Hold Jebus 07:27, 25 August 2007 (CDT)
 * Thanks, already found him. Foo 10:44, 25 August 2007 (CDT)
 * And you have to wear that tittle to get bonus too! Jope16 18:22, 1 September 2007 (CDT)

R8 is 80k!
Someone in my guild hit rank 7. She took this screenshot (allowed me to post it) http://i144.photobucket.com/albums/r177/ember01010/yayayayayaa.jpg As you can see, r8 is 80k. She says it's "Slayer of Champions". Added it to the wiki page - Yellow Monkey 17:24, 25 August 2007 (CDT)
 * I'm just being curious, but any way you could find out what materials she needed to craft her Norn armor? (and how much it cost per piece?) Solis 14:02, 26 August 2007 (CDT)

Farm Location
Currently the only viable farm is Curse of the Nornbear yields 500/15 minutes to all profession, however if you're the lucky proffession (soloable) go tourny with invinciable build and you can earn more. Those prof only includes: Mostly you cant always beat it such as Mesmer usually troubles the build above except SF sin Kullwarrior
 * 55 Monk
 * 55 Necro
 * 130 Derv or any Mystic Regen Derv
 * Critical Defense Sin or SF Sin
 * I must disagree with this, I was able to beat nearly every opponent (bison included) with a Mesmer. The build I used is my secret though ^.^. --71.98.100.170 14:03, 27 August 2007 (CDT)

i can beat everyone in the tournament with the same build on my ele. &mdash;The preceding awesome-sauce comment was added by Skakid9090 (contribs). 00:38, 27 August 2007 (CDT)

-Easiest thing I found is just kill everything in Drakkar Lake...yeah, kill it all. Once you get the blessing, just start killing, if you get to 100 kills and haven't reacked Hunting Rank 2, talk to another Norn, the key is trying to wait until the very end to talk to the rest of the Norn. The more kills you have when talking to them, the more points they will give you. There is also a chance of getting a double points blessing along the way, and a blessing where is you kill 10 enemies within 60 seconde you get a bonus 200 Norn points. Also, every 25 kills you will recieve a random bonus, such as the blessings or bonus Norn points (I recieved a bonus of 300 points when i had about 200 or so kills). This is much faster than Nornbear farming.
 * I like the idea, but could you sound a little less evil? =P "Just kill everything in drakkar lake...yeah, kill it all...just start killing". I'll take your advice because judging from what i've seen, the only good armor for rangers in the Norn stuff!--Darksyde Never Again 16:55, 1 September 2007 (CDT)

Alt Farm Location
The best farm location is the Falls just outside Oalfstead. Going around the map in a big loop you can get 425+ kills easily, I got to slayer of wurms in about 4 hours just by doing this, with a few points off from Slayer of Demons. The only rough patch is the undead circle but that can be dealt with by careful pulling.

Yeah I just completly cleared Varajar Falls for a total of 487 kills and almost 6k norn reputation, took me about an hour. 70.247.245.236 19:22, 4 September 2007 (CDT)

listing each "form"s skills
I don't think that all of the skills for each "form" - Ursan, Raven, Volfen - should be listed here, since they don't appear in your skill list and can't be equipped directly on your skill bar. At the very least, they should be put in a subsection with a note stating that. &mdash;Dr Ishmael 18:20, 29 August 2007 (CDT)
 * I agree. Foo 19:24, 29 August 2007 (CDT)
 * No, you can earn those skills by a quest giver who's out on Drakkar Lake. They are earnable skills. 150.135.23.31 13:23, 2 September 2007 (CDT)
 * They're not talking about the Blessings themselves, but the skills those blessings give you. Yes, list the Blessings, but their skillsets should be on the pages for the Blessings, not here. --Shattered Self 19:47, 2 September 2007 (CDT)
 * Shatter speaks truth.--Darksyde Never Again 23:01, 2 September 2007 (CDT)

Slayer of Chuck Norris
Are you freaking kidding me? If that's true then this title is THE title to max. --Blue.rellik 23:41, 3 September 2007 (CDT)
 * Official Wiki has it as "Slayer of Immortals", which would make it another Highlander reference. It can't be Slayer of Chuck Norris, Anet would get sued into the ground. :P Arshay Duskbrow 23:54, 3 September 2007 (CDT)
 * Nuts :( --Blue.rellik 23:55, 3 September 2007 (CDT)
 * so I herd u leik putting their name to the test. [|Immortals] Pushbiscuit 23:02, 17 September 2007 (CDT)

Rank 9/10 Names
There's a bit of a revert war going on: sometimes r9 says "Slayer of Gods" and r10 says "Slayer of Immortals"; other times, r9 is "Slayer of Hordes" and r10 is "???". Can we get a screenshot, preferably from someone who's r9 so we get both titles? --Shattered Self 09:10, 5 September 2007 (CDT)
 * No one can get r9 until Hard Mode comes out for EotN, r8 is currently the highest you can get it
 * You could get R9 theoretically R10, Completeing Quests still add points to the title when the blessings stop and repeatedly completing the Dungeon guide will get you upto rank 9 eventually, wouldnt recomend anyone do it though.

Rampage Bonus
Something not brought up here that I could find is the other effects of the rampage bonus... it doubles the norn points given to you by the shine npc's, as well as doubling boss kill points. As an R6 right now, farming ~The Path to Revelations~ quest, if I manage to trigger a rampage and kill the facets, I'm making 3k for the facets alone. Hope they don't take a nerf bat to that... ;) Devon Wylde 18:31, 14 September 2007 (CDT)

The possible horror of no hard mode
Now i'm not saying it is gonna end up like this, but what if the only way to advance to rank 9/10 was to continually complete Hero's Handbooks/Master Dungeon Guides and turn them in for rep o.O 4.253.79.108 21:19, 15 September 2007 (CDT)Nate Xplosion
 * You cant turn them in after you hit rank 8. Gandorf 21:20, 15 September 2007 (CDT)

Bold text

This is sad
I have done every norn quest. And the dungeons that give norn points. And every possible way of getting points short of farming. And I'm still thousands of points away from R5 and Norn armor. The thing I loved about guild wars originally was that it was a cool, fun online RPG without the huge flaw so many rpgs have, the need for farming for access to things. Yes, in the original games 15k armor was expensive, but that could be earned by just playing the game. I know from experience. But slowly as more campaigns have been released, a need for farming was more and more emphesised. And now with the addition of these title tracks, this is taken to a new extreme. Norn/Asura/Dwarven/Vanguard Armor shouldn't have to be farmed for. I could understand if you could only get armor at lvl 3 or even 4, because those are achevable by going through the norn lands and doing all quests and no/minimal farming. But upon reaching 16,000 norn points you are still 10,000 points away, with no way of getting more points short of handing in a hero's handbook (7.5k left) and then turning to farming dungeons or clearing areas over and over again. You can't get points further than this by simply playing through the game.--Annonymous
