The survivor title is flawed. Yes, it is flawed and for one reason alone- it counts toward the "Kind of a Big Deal" title. All characters should have equal right to obtain the "the best accomplishment" title.

There are 3 solutions to this problem.
1) Remove Legenary Suvivor from the KoaBD system. Simple enough, eh?

2) Remove the "Your death count must be zero" requirement. Just make it so you can't die or the title will stop and must you repeat the process to advance.

3) Allow a way to reset your death count. A possible idea to, let's say, exchange an Ambulance of Truth for your death count reset. If someone wants to keep their character so much as to pay a million gold, let them.

So that's my post. A lot of grammar errors here, and I apologise, but I've been up all day amd I can't concentrate. Though honestly you shouldn't care as long as you can read it.

um....
1 word....

NA!

Dude! Whats the points in crying ova this... its a gr8 titles and to get Ledgendary is pretty dam hard...just leave it as it is

Ledgendary is not hard, all it takes is careful pulling. Besides, thats not the point. The title is still there for you to show around, the problem is:

I take it Legendary Defender of Ascalon gives you fits.

I don't see the problem here. Just spent your time and effort with the other titles.

survivor = fastest finger f12

Ranell · Dec 31, 2006, 04:32 PM // 16:32

Yes, Leg. Defender of Ascalon should not count toward KoABD as well. Though there are so few of them compared to the max survivors.

Yeah, I could always work on other titles, but there will always be an advantage to the survivor. I'm don't know how to explain this well, but like say the skill hunter titiles are broken down to 3 maxable titles. With, x3 Cartographer, Protector, and skill hunter, thats 9/10 to PKM. Somone with Leg. Survivor however, will make it 10/10. Yet if you don't have the survivor, then its going to be really hard and expensive to get another titile.

they do? last i checked, anyone can get legendary survivor.

Ranell · Dec 31, 2006, 04:43 PM // 16:43

Not the characters they existed before titles came out. Most likely they were killed sometime or another.

Anyways it's just not right that if you die, you can never obtain it again. New players would probably not know about the title when they start. Fastfoward a few months in, and they would be in the same old predicament.

I have yet to see any proof that a character created before the survivor title was introduced that hasn't died is unable to get the title.

Yes it is. That's what the title is for: not dying.

Why this certainly couldn't be the point oh wait YES IT IS

Changing the requirements from "never ever dying" to "not dying in this amount of time" would defeat the entire purpose of the title.

The only potential change that would be fair would be to allow all characters made prior to the title a ONE-TIME chance to start the Survivor counter.

so by your thinking then also get rid of elite titles etc etc since elites captured before the titles were available dont count and you cant cap them twice on one character

just relax, the game isnt about titles and as far as im concerned the only one i think is any good is protector of tyria

trashbasket, players had no reason to NOT die before the titles, which means alot was and will never be able to get the title, on their main char.

Did you even read the next sentence after that?

Then they should fix it according to solution #2.

If survivors the way it is right now, then they should make it so you have only one chance to to complete masters or one chance to map an area you zone into. It's just not right.

except for, you know, the challenge of it? not everyone needs public recognition to feel good about their accomplishments
