Since everyone always likes to blame the pvp players for "Whining" so much, this is why.

In this thread ive seen multiple times that "OMG they are finally giving us info and addressing this, shame its only 5 months late..." comments. so as i said, now the pve and pvp communities have something in common.

I will still bet you money they address the precious LB/Sunspear titles before the AT's come into play....

Ah, k I see what you mean...Sorry for my previous post.

But yes, I agree. At least we can cry together, oy?

They need to specify timezones when it comes to dates.

Gaile did say evening time GMT 0 (i.e. London etc). In case anyone hasn't noticed - there is a lot of the evening left to go yet.

Well, if my calculations are correct, it must be roughly 20h40 at GMT 0. However, even if they don't announce anything today, one more day isn't gonna make a world of difference imho.

I just seem to be missing a lot of things today...But I'm not alone, given the people who've already said that ANet's late.

Oh sorry, i should've said 'This title isn't possible to max without afking or while actually playing the game'. Having to mass farm an area 10000 times doesn't come to close to been sensible or not hard to get.

Why would they specifiy a timezone? It gives them till midnight at GMT -12 hours. They're probably trying to find more ingenius ways to completely screw up the Euro server again.

I only have two Elonian characters, a paragon and a mesmer. Didn't do any grind or farming for points at all with either and never had any problem with sunspear points. Guess it might be a pain if you're doing your nth elonian character and don't want to do all the quests.

I did have problems having to grind for sunspear general for canthan and tyrian characters to qualify to do "And a Hero Shall Lead Them", but Anet has since fixed that.

Hey, guys,

As it turns out, information about Hard Mode will be forthcoming tomorrow. We had a couple of amendments to make that involved providing an expansion of the lead designer's comments about this future update, so we need to hold the notes until tomorrow.

Sorry for the delay and thanks for your understanding!

Goldenboy · Mar 19, 2007, 10:50 PM // 22:50

Ahh, thanks for breaking silence anyway - Some of us can go to bed now :-p

Hard Mode?! I thought it was about Sunspear/Lightbringer!

So they are related!

Oh boy.

Bryant Again · Mar 19, 2007, 10:52 PM // 22:52

Aw. Some. HERE WE GOES!

Orphan Anthem · Mar 19, 2007, 11:22 PM // 23:22

Compared to, say:
- 1 million gold + 10k minutes for drunkard
- 1 million gold + a few hours of solid clicking for sweet tooth
- 10 million faction donated for the Luxon/Kurzick titles
- 60k fame for rank14 (we don't even know how much rank 15 requires)
- 10k chests or gold items identified for max treasure hunter / wisdom titles
- 1 million tickets won for Golden
- 100k games lost for Wretched

Seems like a title that can actually be maxed by playing the game, albeit only in certain areas. Time wise, it probably is only less time consuming than the protector and cartographer titles to max.

And don't say that it should be easier to max because it gives gameplay advantages. Gaining rank 3 (and even rank4 ) is quite easy, and once you're hitting 4 or 5 enemies per mob, you're probably not going to be missing many, if any at all.

[edit]Ooh, I was so excited to hear about it today...ah well, I waited a week, I can wait another day.

Drunkard, You can chat with friends while just standing aroung. really can't do that when you're killing mobs over and over eh?

Sweet tooth, Well, Few mins of clicking...

Well, Personally, AB is fun for me, but zoning and constantly killing some monsters isn't.

The Fame title if probably unmaxable.

10K golds are easy. so are 10k chests. one of the easiest titles ever.

Luck and unlucky can be AFK'd. Easiest title ever.

Um, But where the hell can you max EITHER title by playing the game? Sunspear title is unmaxable as of now, and I've got to kill over 5000 baddies to beat the game? Wow...

I think that LB is the only title with an in-game effect that directly assists in beating the final killer lv28 mobs.

Thx!

Note these key words. Don't be upset if there's no big download tomorrow with the changes that are being discussed. (I can tell by some of the posts that that's what some are expecting.)
