On topic...

So we cannot change secondary professions to the campaign specific professions until we have purchased said campaign...True?

If so, how can we earn the titles if you don't own the specific campaigns?

Its possible that I may have the timeline wrong, that you can't become secondary rit or sin without Factions. I remember he had either JUST bought factions, or hadnt bought it yet... I guess its a critical difference. heh. I'll ask tonight when I see him.
As far as how to earn skill hunter titles, I'd say not every title is attainable or desireable for every person. I think in general it's safe to say the serious skill hunter either already has all chapers or will get them to pursue the titles.

It is indeed a tricky situation. They could maybe filter it based on which campaigns you own, and max the title when you've gotten all the skill caps for that specific campaign.

For example. You have Nightfall, but you do not have Factions. You have captured all possible elites for the core professions and the Nightfall professions. Even though there are elites for Factions professions, you do not have access to those, therefore the title is as complete as is possible for you and it maxes. If you were to purchase Factions, the title would be reopened until you capped all of the Factions elites found in Nightfall.

The point being is if they separate the Skill Hunter title track by campaign, how would someone without Factions be able to cap the Assasin/Ritualist skills? These are supposed to be stand-alone campaigns....

That does pose quite a problem, and that is a very good find on your part. Hopefully we can get an answer for that (for those who don't own all the campaigns).

ok, I checked with the guildy in question, he WAS able to change secondary prior to owning factions, but only on a pvp character and only able the use nightfall rit and sin skills. apparently there is a mismatch in ability to unlock the classes even though there are unlockable skills in pve. In short all of the sin and Rt elites are uncappable unless you own Factions, they can be unlocked, just not capped precluding any title. Presumably this would be corrected when skill titles become chapter specific.

I like that idea yes, but it might be easier just letting people change their secondary profession to Assassin or Ritualist regardless of owning factions or not.

I don't want it to be easier to get KOABD... not after I worked hard for it (I chose to go the "all work and no pay" way and went after all GMC and Protector titles).

Actually you could. Just get two computers -- one to die and level up the monsters and the other to kill it afterwards.
