For the hold one, Sappers do very little damage but long duration stun.

Hi Guys
After much fun milking a cluster of Master Illusionists for their pets and getting the Archmage accolade I noticed I was 19000000 damage into the 100000000 damange badge. Bearing in mind it too me the best part of 30 months to get 19000000 dmg what is the best (quickest) way of getting the rmaining 81000000 needed for the badge??? As much as I love the badge list feature that shows progress I think in this case ignorance was bliss 
Same goes for the hold ones too really - as a lvl 50 fire tank what is best was of doing these with minimal death?

Damage taken badges? Rest + a minion pounding on you for hours on end.
Also known a AFK farming, I believe.
hang on a sec...

Read this thread for quite possibly far more info than you may want on the subject.
For the time mezzed badges, your best bet is likely to be a map with only one Malta Sapper left on it, as they do next to zero damage, but lots of mez if you get them in melee.
Personally, I've never had the inclination to AFK farm for badges, but if that's what floats your boat, then good luck.
Warning:
The above post may contain Cynicism, sarcasm and/or pessimism. If you object to the quantities contained, then tough.
I tend to use various different Rikti mobs for damage taken badge, depending on AT.
If you can have a second character healing you then a Rikti Chief Soldier with round shoulders is the way to go, they just use their sword attack once every 9.5 seconds or so. If you do it via Ouro on invincible with buffed enemies then a level 53 boss can get you near to 2 mil damage per hour at level 50 (this is all based on pre-i13 but I don't think anything has changed since, all the damage from the sword attack should still count).

Cool thanks guys - much as I would prefer to get it 'honestly?' it would take years and that is just kinda silly

That's a little out of date. Forget about using the CoT pain crystals for instance, they stop affecting you after a short time.
Yeah, Sappers are very good for the holding badges - I got mine by spending several nights with a pair of them - but use /ghide, otherwise, you'll find there are lots of unanswered Tells when you check back

The way for damage that works for pretty much any alt is to find a CoT mission, kill off anything in a mob except a single guide, get him close so he use his knife..
then you have to get down to rest position to get über damage. He takes a long pause between hits so with the über rest healing you're up to full health before next hit and the no-one-hit-kills prevents that single hit from killing you.
Many alts can improve on this by using other foes that do more damage or more foes, but this works for everyone.
Of course it's so stupid that you'll have to be in that mission for several months 24/7 before you get that last badge. It is... after all... Epic! (just another word for rediculously silly)
