With the help of XP scrolls, the Legendary Survivor title may be gained within 10 hours from character creation. Considering Guildwiki states the average time to reach Legendary Survivor while questing is 104 hours, the numbers look pretty good.
The bulk of the guide pre-dates the release of the Eye of the North expansion pack and Wajjun Bazaar is no longer the safest or easiest way to farm the title. The best spot to do it now is Kilroy Stonekin's Punch-Out Extravaganza.
Hands down the easiest way to gain the Legendary Survivor title is to level your character to Level 10 and complete the EoTN intro quest from Lion's Arch, Kamadan or Kaineng Center (Nightfall is the easiest, Factions is the hardest). Any class & campaign will do. Once you accept the quest you gain the Journey to the North buff which boosts your health and attributes temporarily to that of a Level 20 character. Simply complete the quest & run your character with Heroes/Henchies to Eye of the North, you should encounter only two or three mobs which are easily dispatched. Then run north to Gunnar's Hold, again only one or two mobs will cross your path. Speak with Kilroy, accept the quest and get ready to rumble. All up, it should take about 30 mins to reach the spot after accepting the intro quest.
The quest is tailor made for Legendary Survivor farming - it's solo, repeatable, has great XP (20,000XP per 7 min run in HM, more with scrolls) and is difficult to fail - you get knocked out instead of dying so as long as you spam Stand Up! before the timer runs out, you'll farm the title with ease. If you fail to stand up in time, you will die and you'll lose your shot at the LS title. There is also a small risk of lag robbing you of your title, besides that it's completely idiot proof. To speed things along, buy max armor and wear customised Thunderfist's Brass Knuckles (received after completing the Kilroy Stonekin quest chain) and do the quest in Hard Mode. To access Hard Mode, complete EoTN with another character on your account.
When doing the quest, its wise to take Gold scrolls such as Lightbringers and Slayers, but if you cannot afford them just go for the cheap blue scrolls available at the merchant.
