Skill hunter aint that hard. I have 50 elites capped on every sinlge one of my chars, one of each class. If i didnt bother to cap them all on seperate chars, i would have lvl 3 skill hunter as i capped every singel elite (no unlocking)

Id say KOABD is biggest in pve, as it inlucdes map unlock and prot and one other.

I think r4 or 5 champion is the highest right now and is most impressive, followed by high rank (u still put lots of time into it), and not really gladiator, as i can get 10 consec easily wit my nub pve water warrior + a monk in RA.

I'd like to point out that capping 60 elites each on three characters is different from capping all 180 elites on one character.

Legendary Survivor draws a lot of flak on the forums, but I've never gotten any negativity for it in-game.

There are some r13s floating around, though half the time I'm not sure whether to be impressed or to be disgusted.

KoaBD will be good up until Nightfall comes out, after which it will be worthless.

Well if u can cap 60 on each char of each class, im pretty sure if u have the time u can cap all 180 cuz most bosses are in similar places so if u capped one of one area, u basically expeireinced them all.

- Brehon, Deangjang and Leeloof's r13 titles (Emperor's Hero)
- Champion 3+
- 180 Elites (can't be farmed)
- 100% Exploration, as it's FREAKING HUGE on screen

I personally like the title Legendary Survivor, as it looks cool, but I also despise people who stand in Kaineng Centre with FoW armor and Legendary Survivor. Yes you have that title with FoW armor, but it's so obvious you ebay'd the money and farmed the title.

talon, you make me sad. I have a legenday survivor walkin around in 15k kurzic. The FOW armor doesn't suit her, so I'm not going to bother farming for materials for that.

Did I ebay the money? No.. did I farm the title? Well.. I farmed the money/materials for the armor WITH the survivor, so in a way, yes, the title was partially farmed.

Started in Factions, made my way through Vizuna and Napuhi mission, walked over to Matu Keep, then made my way over to Lions Arch, walked to beacons, got a run to droks, got a run to warcamp, got a run to citatle, capped a skill in minerals, then walked from LA to toa, from there to sanctum cay (via fishermans haven) and played through the desert missions to ascention. Continued farming outside Matu whenever I had only 5-10 mins spare with xp scroll.

By the time I had the title, I had gotten to unawaking waters and had done most quests in factions (prior to gayela hatchery, I still haven't done that mission).

I died to Shiro, and to top it off.. 3 times

Currently, I'm slowly making my way towards the 180 elites with her, but after reading your post, maybe I'll put one of the 60% explorer titels up next time I'm in Keineng, don't really want people to look down on me due to the fact that I used xp rolles while farming for money.

If you stand in Kaineng Centre, you'll understand what I'm talking about. There are ALWAYS a couple of people that stand there with FoW + Legendary Survivor, but when you question them about it, they get defensive and say that they didn't farm any of it. Sure, this is possible, but not likely based on the responses I get.

Hmmm. perhaps. At least with me, I promised my ele I would buy her fow if she made it to survivor 3. My war survivor3 doesn't have fow.

I was gonna do the exact same thing, make a Survivor 3 Ele and get him FoW, but I PvP 99% of the time, so I figured that it'd be a waste of time getting survivor. It does look cool having that title though, just some people got it the cheap way.

capping 60 easy elites takes 5-6 hours. done it this weekend
capping 60 easy elites 3 times takes 15-18 hours
capping every single elite with a character including feast or corruption and all the time consuming ones = A LOT

respect the max skill hunter title a lot

There isn't a single title worthy of much respect. All can be either bought or ground out with little real skill needed. Hell, just capping elites this past weekend with the double XP crap could advance a survivor title.

IMO I would have to say skill cap title and protector titles, heres why:

ally of X: you can leech the faction
Survivor: you can get P-leveled
Drunkard: e-bay FTW
Basically everything else is just time consuming, these can not be bought, ( i guess protector=runs but thats not for that many missions)

I'm goin for skill cap title right now (59 elites woot woot)

I've been putting good work into the elite cap title, have 107. The number of times you have to take full hench teams deep into the Ring of Fire missions to find that one boss......it can be pretty tough (and repetitive).

From a PvP Standpoint:

Higher Tier Gladiator and Champion titles. I'd say that everyone who's a Rank 4+ Gladiator, or Rank 2-3+ Champion probably didn't have the time to grind it out by doing Random Arenas or PUG GvG.


From a PvE Standpoint:

Tryian Grand Master Cartographer. Takes alot of dedecation to grind it out.

Canthan Grand Master Cartographer. Not as hard as Tyrian, but it still takes alot of time and effort to grind it.

Ledgendary Survivor (Survivor 3). Takes a good bit of dedecation, if you do it
right and don't just get your 55 friend to power level you from level two.



I find it very sad that every single title in the game can be gained with minimal skill, as long as you have either alot of gold, or free time. How about some PvP and PvE titles that actually require skill to get the first level?

I wish you could have titles based on completing high end areas, such as Fow,UW, Urgoz and the Deep. It may encourage people to do more there than just farm..

Sounds good, but is it possible to make these kind of titles?
