I've been suggesting this for years as this is the obvious way the title should have worked from the beginning. It's an achievement aggregation mechanic and as such it should reward the player, not extreme dedication to one character.

HoM going account based was a great move (also the way it should have been from the beginning), for the same reason - achievement aggregation mechanic. But HoM has no relevance in GW1 at all, only an unknown relevance in GW2 but that's a distant future. We need something that would matter here in GW1.

Since now a significant number of players have more than 1 GWAMM it's too late to turn it account based

So the only thing to do is to introduce something new instead. My idea was to make a NEW title - a new Account title that counts the number of total Unlocks on your "Honor" monument in your Account-HoM!
Totally in the spirit of the HoM update and a way to give it a meaning here in GW1.
It's a different approach than just counting unique maxed titles on the account as some of them don't need to be max'ed to unlock a "Honor" statue and there are statues for
Oh, and full 52/52 would be more leet than GWAMM yet it would be equally as accessible to players sticking to just one character and everyone who likes playing more of them equally. It would also bring some extra interest in PvP. In fact because of PvP and Legendary Defender of Ascalon, this new title could have highest rank at 50/52.

Though /not signed to the original idea for the reasons proberly already stated somewhere amongst the flames in this thread.

2 different tracks...

1 character = God Walking Amongst Mere Mortals (6)
account wide = *Gods Walking Amongst Mere Mortals (6*)* being sure to insert the asterisks noting that it wasnt done on that character

Not fair to those with multiple GWAMMs, no matter how you want to word it.

Above suggestion should be applied to those with multiple GWAMM on same account, not one.

Why? · Jul 04, 2010, 03:51 PM // 15:51

i think an account wide gwamm title would be ok if it was like max 120 titles on your char, or something crazy like that.

otherwise no reason for it.

Beluga · Jul 04, 2010, 10:20 PM // 22:20

i think rather than it being title wide, an there shud be a super awsome emote for the whole account, so that other players can at least see that u have achieved gwamm on some other character

Champion is a PvP title , no diff , they always are account wide because its PLAYER vs PLAYER , not char vs char.
Same with the others bla bla.

........

Example ?
"Hey , TH title gives lockpick retain chance , the whole account should benefit of it like it does with Faction (skills) title"
- Response from Anet : Fair enough , TH is now account wide.

See ? try stuff like that.

Why unlucky and zaishen are account wide? They don't seem to match any of the criteria you provided...

Lets see GWAMM account wide that will mean the new character you make would be lvl 1 and VQ all areas did all missions NM and HM got 10,000 drunkard min while being Less then 1 min old

Each class plays differently. GWAMM is (if you exclude those that bought some/all of their titles) an indication that the player has done all of PvE on that class, and thus knows a fair amount about that class's strengths, weaknesses, playstyle, builds, etc in all parts of the game. Having the title on a class that you haven't played through the game with makes no sense to me.

My 1st Gwamm (Warrior) has now 35 titles maxed without survivor titel or LDoA. My 2nd Gwamm (Ele) has 32 titles maxed with survivor, my 3rd Gwamm (Mesmer) has 31 titlles maxed without survivor. I'm curently working on (P,N,Mo,R,Rt,A) simoultanously to get 6 more Gwamm's. They all have PKM with 6 accountwide titles (Wisdom,Treasure,Lucky,Unlucky,both Saviors).

Why make Gwamm accountwide? People like me would have nothing to do anymore , no thank you i like it the way it is at least it keeps me and my partner who has the same amount of Gwamm's busy until GW2 comes out.

I would say that allegiance were meant to be PvP Titels and thats why they Prob. made them account wide. Same goes for Zaishen.
Now we all know how that turned out. Meh.
I think that also the Titles which are insane to achieve on 1 Char aka Treasure Hunter and Wisdom, were made account wide, well to reward the players who played alot (I mean come on who the Hell gets 10k chest from playing 2 years,exept Scers.)
As too the fact that the other Titles are more based on the campaigns and the stories. As your Character gains the Titles in the storyline.
I think u get what I mean.

@Topic: notsigned, I think the people on the other pages, said all there is 2 say.

Really ? i mean , did you spent at least 1min thinking the answer ?
Give it another try ; keyword "time". Also SS and LB are not in the same category pal , they dramatically affect to NF Missions ( hi , bloody lots of dmg to abbadon servants ? ) and mission titles areeeeeeee ? yeeeees , per character !.

Seriously , i explained it like 4 times ?. Unlucky is tied to Lucky , therefore 2+2=4 and ZTitle is gained through keys that are obtained doing whaaaaat ? yeah , i think you know the answer.

Beside the reasons that have been mentioned by dozens of people already, this is just an idea from and for people who are too lazy to get the title. GWAMM is a prestige title, doesnt give you any gameplay benefits and above all it's a title meant for the 'most dedicated players'. Also note that once you get any accountwide title maxed (luxon, kurzick, wisdom, treasure, lucky or unlucky), attaining GWAMM wont take more then 2-3 months.

If you want the title on multiple characters, just play.

drkn · Nov 02, 2010, 10:03 PM // 22:03

Big no for making GWAMM account-wide.

BUT...
A few more titles should be account-wide. This includes LDoA and Survivor for sure.

Mireles · Nov 03, 2010, 12:54 AM // 00:54

They already have several account wide titles...there just harder to get because there account wide... and why play more if all your characters have gwamm for one completion.

Remove titles from the game.

I was extatic when I saw the HoM rewards calculator. To me it looked like ANet completely sidestepped the whole GWAMM issue and just created an awesome vehicle for commemorating a wide range of experiences.

Only 4 days later did I find out about the faq entry that stated that the f****** title is still transferring. Why even have it in GW2 as a title if we're already getting a special title for 50/50?

/facepalm
