Guide to God Walking Amongst Mere Mortals (2024)

This guide describes the optimized way to get the title God Walking Amongst Mere Mortals.

General suggestions[edit]

• If trying to get only one gwamm, it is best to ignore account-wide titles as those are usually extremely long to get and therefore ineffective for one gwamm. On the opposite, if hoping to have several gwamm characters, account wide titles can become interesting.
  • Increasing treasure hunter, kurzick/luxon or lucky rank a bit can still provide some small benefits (most importantly stronger allegiance skills)
• Try to combine several titles at once when possible.
  • Avoid specifically farming reputation titles (Savior of the Kurzicks and/or Luxons, Lightbringer, sunspear, Asuran, Deldrimor, Ebon Vanguard, and Norn) until all missions (NM and HM) and vanquishes are done in the related campaign, since many of those reward reputation points. Storybooks further strengthen this point.
    • Farming can still be a good thing to increase the effectiveness of skills.
    • Characters starting in Nightfall campaign are forced to improve their sunspear title to progress anyway.
    • You might not have to farm at all for sunspear and lightbringer
• Always check the Daily Zaishen Missions, Bounties, Vanquishes, weekly bonuses and active Festivals to take advantage of the increased rewards:
  • The double-points weekly bonuses can halve the amount of required farming.
  • It is easier to find other players who have the same goals (making farming more fun and often faster).
  • Festival are particularly interesting:
    • They are the primary source of consumable items, which are required for three titles, and can provide good bonus effects in PvE.
    • They can also provide a quantity of money (through quests and drops) for various purposes.
    • Festivals provide a way to improve certain other titles, like ebon vanguard (wintersday), survivor (wintersday, Halloween), treasure hunter (Easter) or lucky/unlucky (Canthan new year and dragon festival). Festival are also the only opportunity to increase the gamer title.
• Remember to pick bounties at shrines, capture elite skills from bosses, and explore remote areas with wall hugging whenever possible.

Reaching rank 6 (GWAMM) quickly[edit]

The following priority order takes advantage of synergies to reach God Walking Amongst Mere Mortals "quickly":

Prophecies characters only

1. If possible, start with Legendary Defender of Ascalon before leaving Ascalon (pre-Searing); that will reduce the total number of titles needed by one. Usually you will be spared from having to do Master of the North, but you'll still have to complete legendary vanquisher, legendary skill hunter, legendary cartographer and legendary guardian (and all the titles they require) unless you have an account-wide title. The LDoA title, which was really tedious to get before, has been made significantly easier since the introduction of daily Vanguard quests.
   • Ranger and necromancer have a small advantage over the other professions if completing LDoA not long before Wintersday, as both can go for the Ebon Vanguard Title rather easily thanks to Snowball Dominance.
   • Note that GWAMM is however a very long title, requiring several months of playtime, so you should stick to a character (professions, customization options) you like, even if it means relinquishing on the possibility to do LDoA, instead of forcing yourself to go through the whole GWAMM title with a character you will not like. Note also that Factions characters can vanquish the Factions campaign with one less area (Zen Daijun).

Any character

1. Survivor (+1; total: 1): Since you will have to do all other campaign story-related titles for GWAMM anyway, you should take storybooks and fill them in the process, store the completed books and fill new additional ones (Hero's Handbooks are especially interesting) again in order to meet the 1337kxp requirement from cumulated experience reward (+your current experience), and return all of them at the same time. If possible, refrain from taking experience rewards from quests, since those can also add up the title; e.g. several primary quests in Factions yield ~4kxp/ea and the rewards don't need to be taken to continue. Other ways do exist to get the title, see the Survivor page for details.
2. Protector and Guardian (+3 +3 +1; total: 8). Aims for master on first try as much as possible, although bonus objectives in Prophecies missions can sometimes be done separately.
3. The 4 EotN reputation titles, followed by Master of the North (+4 +1; total: 13).
4. Vanquisher, Cartography, and Skill Hunter (+4 +4 +4; total: 25).
5. Sunspear and Lightbringer (which should already be maxed) (+2; total: 27)
6. Drunkard, Party Animal, and Sweet Tooth (+3; total: 30). Those three titles do require farming consumables during events and/or buying them from other players. Drunkard invariably seems to be the easiest to get, whereas Party Animal can prove to be the most difficult, since festive items that provide Party Animal points cannot be bought from merchants (unlike Dwarven Ales and Red Bean Cakes that provide points for drunkard and sweet tooth titles respectively) and most cannot be spammed (Crates of Fireworks, Disco Balls and tonics). Sweets that cannot be spammed can be exchanged to Kazuma for ones that can.

Title requirement evaluation[edit]

This table compares the difficulty of reaching the maximum rank in each of the title tracks.

¹ Duration: generally assumes that players progress the various campaigns with reasonable efficiency; it is not meant to reflect the total spent by any particular player, which can vary substantially.

• Short: the title can be easily acquired; there are substantial shortcuts available to everyone, no grind or resources are necessary, or it can be done easily while playing through the game (without too many other considerations). These titles require days (if not weeks) of effort. Some casual players will need more time to acquire these titles, e.g. Drunkard can take a while unless one buys alcohol from others.
• Medium: requires some grind and consumes resources; there are shortcuts that a lot of people can manage. These titles require weeks (if not months) of effort. Some veteran players will manage these titles as fast as short (such as Survivor).
• Long: requires substantial grind; few true shortcuts are available. These titles require months (if not years) of effort and/or significant investment of long-term resource.
