Well to get to KOBD all you really need to do is get 3 Protector titles + 2 elite skill cap titles.

The skill caps are easy on any char, and to get protector rather simple as well.

If you PUG then the War will get into teams much faster than the sin, but otherwise there are about equal.

Doesn't really matter what profession you are. Pick what you like playing more. And for the skill hunter, the one with the most outposts/exploration, so you don't have to run to new areas for skills.

Whichever profession you like playing the most.

I thinks its stupid the way people think that all tht is just "SO" easy it just makes the more beginner players nt even feel pleased wen they do acheive this.

Any title should be looked at as a pretty good GW acheivment as its something they have worked on even if some are easier than others.

Sure, by you and only you since you earned it. For other's it may be vieed as trivial as it was easy for them. Don't get a title to impress anyone else, you'll just be dissapointed.

It depends on who you play with. If you can do it with guildies or heroes/henches, then use either profession. If you're going to use a PUG then warrior would probably be a better choice. It also depends on whether or not you're going to fight(protector, guardian titles, etc.) or "purchase" (sweet tooth, drunkard, treasure hunter, etc.) titles.

Quentin.Sheley · Nov 28, 2007, 09:04 PM // 21:04

You should get 5 account based titles! That'll mean that all your chars get KOBD and then you can work @ 'People Know Me' for your favorite char.

But you want to get the title on the char that you use the most because title are designed to show off your accomplishments in the game and if you get KOBD on 1 char and don't use that char that much then it's just a waste of your time. So my final suggestion is to get the title on your most used char.

Do they even have 5 account based titles? I mean... Luxon... Kurzick... but other PvP titles don't really have max levels to my knowledge... do they?

xx luna xx · Nov 28, 2007, 09:18 PM // 21:18

I am hitting max title #9 right now, the easiest to start with are definately the Protector titles, Skill Hunter I found easiest in Factions. Tyria is huge and that one took some time. Skill hunter however will cost you roughly 90k and up per campaign. Sunspear and Lightbringer are super easy to max out if you've managed to make it to Remains of Sehlahjah in Nightfall, and since they go hand in hand you'll be maxing 2 titles simultaneously.

Good Luck!

Reminds me of when I hard-mode vanquished Nutsack... I mean Sacnoth Valley.

It took my warrior three hours to do with an all heros & henchmen team, but when I bragged about it I immediately got shot down by another guy who'd vanquished sacnoth valley in first try, in under an hour, and thought it was easy. He was a bonder monk and they'd used a bonded siege devourer.

In other words: your mileage may vary.

The title I'm most proud of personally is still Protector of Tyria. It was the first I got, I had actually qualified for it before the title even existed, and it was all my own doing.

Dutch Masterr · Nov 28, 2007, 09:29 PM // 21:29

I got Kind of a Big Deal on my warrior by getting the 3 protector titles and grandmaster cartographer of Elona and Cantha. It really isnt that hard to do, it just takes some time, patience and dedication.

Dont expect to get the title overnight, if you starting from scratch it may take a few months (unless you buy your titles like drunkard or sweet tooth). After i got the title though, i got pretty bored with the game.

RPGmaniac · Nov 28, 2007, 10:32 PM // 22:32

Protector, Elite Skill Hunter, and Cartographer and the best titles to go for if you're just starting out on getting Kind of a big Deal. If you own all three campaigns and get the protector/cartographer/etc titles, you get a 4th one (which counts towards the title count). The title is "Legendary (put achievement here)".

Well, compared to the other titles what would you call them?

They are easy. And if you don't know, then read up on them. Some of those missions are so easy I purposely put myself at a disadvantage just to see if something will happen.

They do. Nobody's reached them to my knowledge though.

sagilltwins · Nov 28, 2007, 10:52 PM // 22:52

When I got kind of a big deal... I got 3 prots and sunspear/lightbringer

RPGmaniac · Nov 28, 2007, 10:54 PM // 22:54

There's Luxon/Kurzick, Gamer, and Lucky/Unlucky. This isn't counting the pvp titles like Gladiator, Hero, Commander, etc.

Mortal Amongst Mere Gods · Nov 28, 2007, 10:57 PM // 22:57

My warrior had a much easier time maxing out titles because people were more willing to let a war in their group, rather than the sin. (Which is my main character right now.) But, I like playing my assassin much, much more so I'm getting KoaBD on him.

yeh it might be easy for ppl hu have been playing the game for a long time but tht dont mean its easy for the newer players is what im saying. It just makes the newer players feel like there getting no where.

quickmonty · Nov 29, 2007, 11:24 AM // 11:24

On the Skill Hunter title .... If you get it for each campaign then you get a fourth title .... Legendary Skill Hunter. Then you just need one more for KOBD. Protector, Sunspear and Lightbringer are relatively easy. (9 maxed and working on 10th right now).
