The Aspiring Drunkard's Guide to Binge Drinking

I just did the ember light one with witche's brews and got about 140 mins worth in i think 35 real mins... But there are lapses when you don't get points.. So I wasted about 15-20 mins worth but id much rather lose 1.5k of drinks than spend and extra hour and a half sitting nowhere doing nothing

Great guide btw

I am sorry to open this threat again, but is this still acurate?

Frozen Isle>Ember light camp>Frozen>etc doesn't seem to work anymore.

You can try the remains of sahalja (wrongly spelled it's a place in desolation of nightfall where the challenge mission is). You go out the zone to the ss/lb run part. Supposedly if you drink1 spiked eggnog go out the zone, drink another go back to town you'll get like 6 minutes each and every time.

I'd also like to ask if this is still accurate. Perhaps an update fixed it?

From the looks of it, anet has fixed this completely. I took a fire water and drank it went outside of remains of sahalja came back in town (1 minute). Then a minute later I got my drunk effect in town (2 minutes).

So now it keeps tracks of your drunkard rank even if you zone out and back in so it takes 3 minutes to get 3 minutes of drunkard title.

I've also noticed that firewater dosnt give me 3mins per zoning, i suspect they updated it.

The only stupid thing is the official wiki links to this guide on how to speed up drunkard title. Yet they fixed it or messed it up or something. I wish we could get gaile to comment on this.

The whole "Window" thing sounds like a made up theory which came out of the misunderstanding of the drinking mechanics. it might be related to the seconds dial on the Anet's server's clock, but believing that every outpost has a different "window" assigned to it, is in my opinion, just forcing your random subjective experience into a this made up theory.

I can't get this method to work any more, however I did manage to find a new way with 100% success. No guild halls needed. I gained about 500 minutes in 2 hours (however I wasn't doing it nonstop). I am not saying this method doesn't work, but to me I tried in several areas and couldn't get one that was reliable enough to gain minutes fast.

Started my own service thread about it here http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/s...php?t=10230810

Note, I looked through all the rules and don't think it's breaking any. If it is then I can easily edit all of this out.

Just downed a stack of firewater this week, there's nothing wrong with zoning to speed up the process. I tried between an outpost and an explorable, and between two explorables and both worked reliably once you found a good pair. Seemed to be unidirectional, so drinking then zoning from A to B worked, but drinking then zoning from B to A didn't. Worked for one district but not for another. The same pair worked 100% reliably on 2 different sessions, but didn't work at all on the third, then worked again on the rest (I usually do 50 rounds max per one session to avoid lapses in concentration and subsequently wasted booze).

MercenaryKnight, this place you found, does it let you take one flask or firewater, zone, take another firewater and u got 6mins?.. or you gotta do it 3/1?

My place is always 3/1 then repeat. Of course, their is nothing wrong with this other method. It just takes a lot longer to find zones that you can get to reliably work. My method has been available all day long nonstop.

Since it seems like my method has been fixed might as well let anyone try it out.

Go to american district of whatever town, drink to level 5 and zone to europe district. I was able to get 800 minutes in a few hours in gunnar's hold. However, ever since then it was unreliable and seems to of stopped working. Maybe try messing around with different towns.

Since it's Christmas...

On this past Sunday Olafstead's Europe district had a 3 minute window that lasted 24 hours, so keep an eye on that zone this coming Sunday. Sifhalla's Europe district had an amazing 48 hour window that has lasted since Monday to today (Tuesday) and is still going strong. I zoned from my GH, Uncharted Isle, to said zones and gained 3 minutes 100% every time. Dec. 23rd I started with 850 minutes, Dec. 25th I am now 10,001 minutes. Credit for finding Sifhalla goes to a friend of mine, happy drinking.

Just a quick question.

Will you lose the drunk level if you zone outside the window of opportunity? I'm very stingy with my money and would rather not "test" this out.

You don't lose your drunkard level. It just means you have to wait out the time normally.

An easier way to do it is to go around in weird towns. Zin ku corridor, cavalon, kurzick towns, imperial sanctum, gunnar's hold and go to american district. Drink to level 5 then zone to europe district. Some times it'll work and you'll keep getting 3 minutes every time you go to europe.

However it doesn't follow a schedule. So 1 monday at 5 it may work, another monday it won't work in the same spot. So all you have to do is try various towns until you find one that works.

Great guide. I'll have to try it out.

I've tried multiple towns, districts (international, europe, america) and have seen no jump in minutes at all. Spent about 3 hrs trying different combinations. The only time my counter changed on the "H" screen was when one full minute was up regardless of towns/zoning etc. For me at least, none of these approaches are valid or working. Bummer.

Ok, i've found a good one here if any of you have the frozen isle guild hall. It seems to me after about 3 days (on and off) of warping, if you drink your spiked in the guild hall, and warp to Shing Jea monastery of all places, this almost every single time gives you 3 minutes - one way of course.

i'm working on accurate times, (GMT) as the window does shut - doesn't seem to work 24 hours a day to my knowledge.

at 11am GMT (euro servers) the window shuts and doesn't work - but just now (12noon) it's restarted again, so there may be other times of day where it's hit and miss, but it's been very successful for me so far.

Last night at 12:00am EST, Amnoon Oasis to Prophets Path in Europe d1 gave me 3 minutes while zoning. Unfortunately, it doesn't work today.
