On characters with low rentention (= low treasure title) unlucky ramps up faster

YAY~

I can get koabd on all my characters now. Unlucky title was a snore to get... X__x it was taking too long to max out.

Sweet - I REALLY hate that 1 in Wisdom on my mesmer when I IDed something by mistake ...
I was like:

when it happened.
(Just in a better outfit of course! ^.^)

Like they say - less is more.
Unless we are talking about manly parts.
Then you are just kidding yourself.

Javeron · Oct 28, 2008, 07:50 AM // 07:50

Huh, that kinda sucks. I have deleted several characters in the past that had points on them. Too bad, oh well.

.defekt · Oct 28, 2008, 07:56 AM // 07:56

sorry, I don't know what this "teasure hunter" title is

LOL
LOL

Magic Wut Huh Asdf · Oct 28, 2008, 07:58 AM // 07:58

I deleted a character last week with ~ 600 IDs on it. Shame, that.

KoaBD means nothing since the release of NF.

I can't help but lol @ all of the people saying this affects getting GWAMM.

The amount of work for max TH/W is the same still, people.

Just now you can chest run decent chests with your perma, which is still slower than chest running Fronis for TH, and you can ID for Wis without WTB Carpal Tunnel from swapping hundreds of unids at a time over to your main.

QQ moar.

Ten times Bravo to Linsey and the few people working on GW1. Excellent decision and very happy to know you could implement it. At a time where people are talking about the "downfall" of GW, this is really good news.

YEY Best update in many months!

Faer · Oct 28, 2008, 09:09 AM // 09:09

I approve of this update. Less grind is key. When I want to grind for fun stuff, I play WoW (which is quite a good game, contrary to popular GWG opinion!). When I want to hop into a game every now and then, pick it up and go, and get fun stuff, I play Guild Wars (hurk durk in case some of you forgot, that was sort of the original vision for the game). Screw all this catering to the hardcore time wasting carebear demographic, seriously.

Because titles ever meant anything to begin with.

Joke post: A much needed change that will further balance the stale PvP metagame.

Srs bsns: finally we're going back to the original vision piece by piece. Kinda sad it took GW2 to happen for this to happen huh.

Yol · Oct 28, 2008, 09:39 AM // 09:39

Brilliant news and much needed

As for the update to the unlucky title in a few days time, I'm guessing we'll get unlucky points for when we break an item while trying to salvage something from it.

Jecht Scye · Oct 28, 2008, 09:49 AM // 09:49

This will be an excellent update. Thank you Anet for making things less annoying.

Mangione · Oct 28, 2008, 09:54 AM // 09:54

I really like this.

I will open chests on characters other than my main.

tmakinen · Oct 28, 2008, 10:03 AM // 10:03

I have both titles maxed on one character, random points up to first or second rank on 9 others. Cannot be anything but happy to be able to display my favorite title (Source of Wisdom) on any character. I'm quite interested to see the revision of the title system. Although I'm already past GWAMM the update might be just enough of an incentive to complete those titles that are still underway (though dunno about Unlucky, that one is directly from the Twilight Zone).

N1ghtstalker · Oct 28, 2008, 10:07 AM // 10:07

time i get my sin to RoF then

*raises paw*

I won't be maxing either title when the update rolls around, but I was favoring three characters before we were pretty much forced to pick one for title hunting. The best I can expect when the numbers from those three are combined is a one (maybe two) tier boost... good enough for me!

I don't think many people will be noticing an epic boost with the update, but every little bit helps... right? At least we can start playing other characters again without kicking ourselves every time we dive for a chest or ID something with them.

I haven't been this excited about an update in a really long time!

komma · Oct 28, 2008, 10:19 AM // 10:19

10,000 chests is still a hell of alot of running.
