Did anyone even notice the amount of keys you will now get from the MAT? talking 15x the amount of keys. Thats a lot of extra keys about to get dropped into the economy. I doubt high prices of keys will stay for long. I just wish the randomness of the chest was better. with so many firewaters and brulee's comming out its usualy not worth it to open the chest when you can get 3k for the key

Gold for PvP players is necessary for things like Guild Hall NPCs, sigils, invites, or just buying things for your PvE characters.

Lets face it, every title in the game outside of Champion is farmable/buyable, and this one really is no worse. Unlike most of them it kills two birds with one stone.

PvE players have been asking for a title with rank emotes for a long time, and now they have one.

How is this an emote for PvE players?

Unless you consider paying PvPers gold for keys a PvE activity of course. I know I don't.

I don't mind this at all. Inflating the price of zkeys works to my advantage.

Yes.

Snype · May 08, 2008, 07:34 PM // 19:34

WOWOWOW is this your incentive for people to PvP?? Why should I spend 3 hours doing a tournament when I can just farm for 3 hours and get even more keys??

PvE emotes? Screw that.

kobey · May 08, 2008, 07:34 PM // 19:34

Well, looking at the bright side, at least, its account wide and not character based

Tamuril elansar · May 08, 2008, 07:35 PM // 19:35

why do people that don't like titles WHINE about this? none is forcing you to get this title.

I forgot to add "They should be working on GW2/GW1/hairdressers to the list of complaints. My bad.

PvP isn't inaccessible at all. Go to RA and click enter mission. Go to AB, tab+add, and enter mission. Find some friends and learn to HA/GvG. It's perfectly possible, I've just recently started GvG and HA again with a group who's never done it before. It enhances PvP because it's fun, it gives a reward for PvP, something it has typically lacked. Many players only play games for the carrot on the end of the rope, this is for them.

You could PvP, or you could farm gold for Zkeys. If that's boring, go outside.

It doesn't, they're gone. However, fun new toys keep people playing. I'll bet you everything in my storage the RA population explodes in the coming weeks.

Longasc · May 08, 2008, 07:36 PM // 19:36

This is hilarious

This clearly shows: ANet does listen!

... but it seems they do not understand...^^

Not really funny. If this is the new and amazing, refreshing and unique flavor that we can expect in GW2, the best they can offer, I wish I could turn back time 2 years and just add content to GW:Prophecies, without their continued efforts to make the game worse and worse.

X Tigercat X · May 08, 2008, 07:36 PM // 19:36

This is epic fail srsly. For those of us that actually partake in mats are being cheated. The only reward to the mat now are just extra reward pts. Their is no gurantee these rps will lead to these new rare items or anything good in general. Anet should have at least reward the top players in mats the tonics in addition to rps. I saw the new title and new tonic and I think its kind of kool. Just doing well in the mats are very difficult and those that do well should b given better rewards

Because PvP is more fun than PvE sometimes?

Rocky Raccoon · May 08, 2008, 07:39 PM // 19:39

Who owns GW? I believe ANET does. As they own the game they may do whatever they want with it. If people don't like what they do they have the choice to play or not to play. When will "the community" aka "the vocal minority" realize they have no entitlement with regards to GW. You can QQ all you want on the forums, but you should realize you are a minority of GW players, most whom have never heard of Guru. Nothing that happens with GW is life threatening or devastating, it is just a game you can choose to play or not to play. Now please try and reply with intelligent responses and not just the typical you are a #$%&&*@(*^^$&.

As already stated by others, at the cost of keys this title is not for PvEers.

For people who are complaining its a money > skill title, You get keys from doing pvp related tasks. unless your admitting yourself that pvp takes no skill this title is in no way catering to time or money consumption for rewards.

People buy alcohol for the Drunkard, Sweet Tooth and Party Animal title tracks. Are they not considered PvE titles?

People grind reputation for titles, is that much different than grinding gold to purchase keys for a title?

etc...

All titles are grind based. This one just superficially seems like a PvP title because you get keys through PvP. Let me hit you with a news flash; PvP players do not give two shits about this title, because it has nothing to do with PvP achievments. They just want to sell keys and make gold.

The Meth · May 08, 2008, 07:42 PM // 19:42

This would be a almost an ok title for me if Zaishen keys were made unsellable. PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD MAKE THEM UNSELLABLE. We don't need ebay ranks and emotes. Whats the point of adding a title that would only mean someone can amass money?

Jumping Is Uselss · May 08, 2008, 07:44 PM // 19:44

OH WOW..........................new emotes

Just more useless stuff for people to show off e-peen. Of all the things to improve and implement into GW, Anet chose something to make its players grind more.
