Just get rid of the title. That will stop people from leaving mid-battle before they die. Stupid idea to begin with.

I'd like to see the title gone too. Some people will just get a feeling of imperfection if they don't have it. People will be jerks and quit on other people. One even admitted it right here.
Either get rid of it or make the last death reset the XP count to the title. Not the XP amount of course, but the XP count to the title on the Titles tab. That way if you lose it, it's possible to gain it back. |

Fiery has the right idea. Enforce a logout time. Personally I like the idea of the titles it actually gives someone something to achieve. This title is no more meaningless than any of the other titles. Look at fame. Some people who have earned their fame are skilled at pvp, while others just i-farmed their way there and have little idea how to do anything else. The same can be said about the other titles. Some people fight the arena till they get their gladiator title and quit on their group while other people are still trying for their wins.
I think it has nothing to do with the title and everything to do with a certain amount of our game community that is very selfish and has fairly low character. |

I read somewhere that presearing deaths and deaths during missions don't count against you getting the title, but any others (quests,farming, etc) do. Hope that's right because my new tank is almost lvl 17 and has not died SINCE presearing, where she got a little RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GOy too early.

I know cinematic deaths don't count. But you will know if the death counts because the title track progression will no longer be available to you. I haven't heard anything about some deaths not counting except cinematics and that one at the very beginning of factions where the tutorial master kills you at the rez shrine.

If the death is game forced, it does not count.
ie; death required for storyline [cutscene deaths]. if you die DURING a mission it counts against you, yes, but NOT if it was FORCED by the game. If you get wooped by an afflicted whatever yer gunna get a death count yeah! But if you get wiped at the end of the mission along with your party during the less than amazing cinematic, naah, no /death . |

And I like the idea of titles too. It gives something for PvE ppl to work towards, for those who prefer to do something other than just farming. Fine if you have it, fine if you don't. Quote:

To me, the survivor titles basically means you're good at running at the first sign of danger. The ones I respect are the Protector titles (missions) as that usually means you know how to play PvE, which is what I play exclusively.

There are skilled respectable ways to earn each title and their are cheap back doors too. I don't think the quality of a player should be judged on their titles. |

Yea, I won't tell people with the survivor title in my party either. There is no way of telling who did and did not earn it. It is bad enough that it can take a good half hour to form a team. I aint taking a chance on getting people who leave in my group and wasting even more time.

1. Create a new char and have guildies help with pre-searing quests. 2. Hide when searing your char. 3. Get a run to Droks 4. Have someone PL you to 1,337,337xp. Quote:
I know there are people that get that title honestly and they have my respect. However there's ways around it and no way to tell how they got the title. |
