It annoys me when I do a DoA or a vanquish and then half way through I realise i've forgotten my reputation title the whole run, while I have my useless "I have many leather bound books" title on.

My idea is the while you have your GWAMM of any rank on, all title effects stand.

For example, if I was raptor farming with my GWAMM title on, I would gain the additional +5...15 energy the asura title would normaly give. The same would apply to the LB, Norn, Ebon Vanguard and Deld.

I know this addition isnt exactly needed, but its a simple solution for a frustrating problem.

It's not a frustrating problem, it's you forgetting about three clicks. Also, when fighting the Charr in the Norn areas (a few quests involve that), you'd effectively have both Norn and Ebon titles displayed.
/unsigned, silly silly

e:
Also, kinda agreed with Akelarumi down there - the only GWAMM-track title worth showing is, well, GWAMM.

/unsigned as well cause it gives you an advantage.

You would get bonuses from multiple titles at one time. Such as the example above and even Deldrimor title combined with any of the others giving you double/triple bonuses.

GWAMM is just a title to show how many titles you have. Nothing more, nothing less. It doesn't need to give you any benefits.

This is all it is and nothing more it is a title that keeps track how much max titles you have. At the most give it an emote for the added
E-peen value.

Why do you have your useless "I have many leatherbound books"-title on in the first place?

davehall · Oct 04, 2011, 12:31 PM // 12:31

A better remedy/solution would be to have an option in-game that auto-selects your LB/Asura/Norn/Ebon Vanguard/Deld title when you in one of those areas. Alternately and more attune to the game atmosphere: a title buff should automatically kick-in when in said area, much like an environment effect.

That said: I'm perfectly happy with the way the current "three-click" system works to enable a title buff for said area.

If anything, the higher your GWAMM is the more lag you should have. If you have GWAMM, then you already play this game too well and lag would make it harder.

This is similar to my forgetfulness when doing anything in HM, but forgetting the HM.

Here's an idea! If you plan on farming, why not leave the title on? That will save all the QQ.

This. Right here. Yes. Please. (Have I hit 12 chars yet?)

I don't need to have my Luxon title on to use Luxon skills, why do I need to put my EotN titles on? If it's simply a matter of being able to use, say, the Ebon Vanguard title in Ascalon HM (which is pretty much mandatory), then add the option to have the title auto-swap when I'm in EotN areas, and continue to let me manually select titles as I see fit.

Aint that hard to click 3 times to get your title on, and if you got a good team, the buffs wont make that big of a difference

You don't. You can use skills regardless, you just miss the title effect. Faction titles don't offer any, or you'd need to have the title on as well.

Anyway, /notsigned. There are multiple situations where the choice of the allegiance title isn't that obvious (as mentioned, missions in the Norn/Asura areas that involve Destroyers, for example, or Charrs in Norn areas), so I'd rather choose as I please.

You hardly even need to use the EotN title buffs on the respective zones if you're teams strong. The only time i ever needed this was running 2 people through vanquishes at the same time as i'm only running 5 heros not 7 mate. The only thing you just can't be stupid about is not forgetting shrines if you aren't maxed.

Reverend Dr · Oct 04, 2011, 06:58 PM // 18:58

I only ever have my drunkard (1) title on, can I get this same effect with my drunkard title?

Onyx Blindbow · Oct 04, 2011, 07:36 PM // 19:36

meh GWAMM is so easy now it has lost it's lustre

It's a shame for all those who got it more than 3 years ago before easymode really set in (don't even get me started on the LDoA title!!!!!)

Just wonder when they will give the original Collectors edition aura to ppl for a cash shop transaction to stop them QQing about something they don't currently have

Venganza · Oct 04, 2011, 09:05 PM // 21:05

No, just no!

God forbid we pander to more laziness in the game.

MithranArkanere · Oct 05, 2011, 01:17 AM // 01:17

GWAMM already has an unique effect: You add it to the HoM, you get in GW2.

I'd rather have what davehall said, since you can get those titles way before GWAMM.

But then we have places where both Delver and any other may work, yet you are supposed to pick just one. So we can't have that either.

Soulfire Ninja · Oct 05, 2011, 07:28 AM // 07:28

I don't have it, but I'm not going to jump on the hate bandwagon.
/signed.

I do think for taking all that time to get that title it should come it more benefits rather than just showing it off. It would be anet showing appreciation for the time you took to achieve the title anyway.

The title really means nothing. I have one on my ele, have 5 maxed titles on every character I create (almost 6 once I can be bothered to max lucky) and I can make a GWAMM on all my characters if I could be arsed to do it, but I won't because it's not worth the effort and there isn't any prestige in it left since it's such a cakewalk to get it nowadays...

How about you not be lazy and give a real reason to not sign. I play this game to relax, not to have a second job. Stop using this as an excuse to put down other peoples ideas.

Small things such as this are easy to forget when your dealing with builds, equipment and other sorts. I would be for it but it clashes with the fact you can face Destroyers and Charr in asuran/norn areas.
