emotes and recognition of pve related titles are good as it is with the title alone. skill vs grinding, pvp vs pve, grinding through pve shouldn't be recognized to teh point near a bambie or wolf or any sorts. only pvp should have such recognitions b/c it actually involves a great amount of skills. not ebay gold and buy unid items, drinks, sugars, bot at aspenwood and donate faction should be considered to be worthy of a emote.

I don't really understand the point being made here. There are plenty of skilled PvE players out there that go and complete titles because the players enjoy it. I don't see why one would consider it a grind (as if all titles aren't?). Most players don't bot or ebay. I've gained KoBD and higher on all but 2 of my 9 characters because I enjoy it.

I do understand the point that KoBD is easier to attain now, but if an emote were placed it wouldn't have to be at the first tier, but rather could be at the second or third (or higher if more are added).

Personally I don't see why it shouldn't be added. PvPers shouldn't be offended or "jealous" that PvE players gain an emote. It wouldn't take anything away from /rank because it would be distinctly different.

A good solution would be to allow /rank only to be used in PvP outposts, and the PvE emote in PvE outposts. This way neither side would have to deal with "jealousy" of the other's emote.

If one is never added PvEr's might just have to get R3. It might be the easiest solution if one wants an emote that badly.

PvPers just got all the weapon/armor skins.. so why not something from PvP to PvE?

KamikazeChicken · Jun 20, 2007, 07:42 AM // 07:42

I'd settle on them adding the last 2 tiers to the title track, but some entirely worthless but entertaining emote wouldn't hurt. >.>

If you aren't good enough to make it in PvP you don't get an emote, simple as that.

Be moar pve scrubbish plz

But then again, you don't REALLY have to be GOOD in PvP to get shiny emotes, do you? Besides, we all know there's a lot of high-rank account that were ebayed. And we all know there's a common practice of pvp players playing pve players accounts and getting payed for each fame they earn them.

Furthermore, what skill - other than a reflex to push a button upon hearing "3 2 1 spike" - do you have after few months of pvp? None.

Pvp was given an option on unlock all pve armor/item skins. Isn't it only fair to give something new and shiny to pve also?

I think that the whenever a players uses the drunkard title they should get same vision as when your a little drunk and when you use alehound titles that you make you max drunk at a random type of boose. Using these titles should not count twoards the title track but I still think that they should shout out the drunken quotes.

As for the KoaBD emote I agree maybe like adding a divine glow to the character or something whenever the title is used.

I have Kind of a Big Deal for my primary character, but I personally don't see a point in having a special emote for the rank. Just toting it around with you is rewarding enough.

MithranArkanere · Jun 21, 2007, 12:42 PM // 12:42

Instead of emotes there should be any 'character ID' you cound see right-clicking in characters...

Hm... I'll think on a suggestion about that...

Div · Jun 21, 2007, 01:10 PM // 13:10

Rank emotes were there before titles came out. Now that titles are out, there's no point. No need to have an even bigger epeen...

Totally agree, we need the next 2 tiers of this title track and probably the next ones after those as well.
Am tired of only having the level 3 tier when I should be on the level 5 one.

Oh and /signed for the emotes they would be cool, but as good as my tiger, prob not.

I'd love to have an emote. Took me so many months to get r6 koabd an emote would be a nice bonus for all the time u spend on getting 30 max titles.
Or other koabd ranks.

Tantra Existantance · Feb 18, 2008, 08:38 PM // 20:38

Yes, or a unique title only available to r6 KoaBD, like...

"Life?(1)"

Champion title is what gw is all about, and there's no emote for that. Lots of pseudo-logic in this thread.

For every primary pve player it would make happy, I imagine it would seriously annoy 10 primary pvp players.

(Speaking as a title RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GO)

Jecht Scye · Feb 18, 2008, 08:53 PM // 20:53

/signed but at God Walking Amongst Mere Mortals. Otherwise it would be overspammed. I don't care how many PvP elitists it would piss off, fair is fair.

I'm not GWAMM yet, but hopefully before GW2

Only 4 titles to go...

Randvek · Feb 18, 2008, 08:55 PM // 20:55

I've got 22 maxed titles (soon to be 26), and I don't like this idea at all. Gladiator and Champ deserve emotes much more than PvE titles. Want to show off your PvE abilities? Wear your armor and you crystalline swords and whatnot.

Keep the emotes in pvp. They are annoying enough as it is, let's not make it worse!

MithranArkanere · Feb 18, 2008, 08:57 PM // 20:57

I will agree with this ONLY if the emote animation is BLUE as opposed to the orange of the PvP one.

Cathode_Reborn · Feb 18, 2008, 09:02 PM // 21:02

Honestly, you could probably say max KoaBD is equivalent to r3 Hero. The main difference is that maxing KoaBD takes way longer. One thing they have in common - both of them don't really show how skilled a player is.

I say it because I've met people with KoaBD nearly maxed who still happen to suck at the game. Besides the HM titles, a majority of them involve grind, money sinks, and pointless time-consuming tasks. You can max the title and still be clueless about true skill, thanks to consumables, pve skills, and the lack of real challenges in pve.

Btw, I happen to be a PvE'er.

get rid of emotes all together

howz that for a good suggestion

quickmonty · Feb 18, 2008, 09:14 PM // 21:14

Since this phoenix decided to fly up from the ashes ....

I would like to see all emotes removed from the game.

Please the GWAMM title immensely more impressive than the PvP title tracks are, so that we can put a stop to PvPers coming to PvE and then flashing their titles. Well, we won't be able to stop them, but the KoaBD title-hunters will step forth and flash their own emote back at the PvPers.
