I just maxed my title out.

I'd say leave it the way it is but add an icon in corner like the rest showing u your level drunkness (like carrying the urn around does)

I want to bump this up in hopes people will change this. I don't care I want them to keep the amount you would normally nead to use to get 10k minutes. Just let us do it points wise and not afk wise. They just allegedly nerfed the 3 minute zoning process which was the only way for legit people to get it without spending 10k minutes worth of game time afk clicking away.

the other "consume" titles are point based, why not make drunkard drink based?

The only reason stated so far is "Because I had to make the title with the old system".

But... look at the other titles. Most, if not all of them, can be made with WAY easier ways than just drinking.

I say double the points to the max, give one point for each consume alcoholic beverage, 3 for the 'strong' beverages and keep the 'stay drunk' point system, so people can get the title both ways: either slow or expensive.

Actually - doing it this way you technically are wasting alcohol.

When I was maxing the title, I'd first down a lvl 5 drink (spiked eggnog) - wait 3 minutes - and then drink 1 lvl 3 drink (firewater; or I believe you can also click 3 1-minute drinks) every 3 minutes thereafter.

1 level 5 drink is the same as 2 firewaters. So by drinking a lvl 5 drink each time, you're basically wasting the equivalent of 1 firewater each time you click the next lvl 5 drink...

First of all, Firewater was upgraded to a level 5 drink a while of go.

Also, using a level 5 drink in place of three level 1's isn't really wasting, as the most points you can get out of a level 5 is three. I guess level 5 drinks are slightly more expensive than level 3s, but I would consider the storage benefits and other minor conveniences to outweigh the slight difference in price.

See, this is why the prices for level 5's are so screwed up...people think they're the same as 3 level 1's, just because they only give 3 minutes when used alone.

Plain and simple, if you want to use level 1's in the same manner as you'd use level 5's, you'd have to use 5 level 1's to get the same amount of minutes as one level 5 if you stop drinking right after. The first two don't count towards the title, only the 3rd, 4th and 5th because you're not "drunk" until your 3rd level.

Therefore, level 5's should be worth 5x the amount as a level 1. It's people cheating the system by mapping in and out of their gh that pull the price down, and ignorant dumbasses who think "3 minutes = 300g noob!"

I think Sweet Tooth and Party Animal should have behaved the same way as Drunkard when they were added much later after the Drunkard title was put in. I guess why this is now, there aren't many Party/ Sweet drops as alcohols.

This was changed a long time ago. There are no level 3 alcohols anymore. People should know what they're talking about before they post.


As for the level 5 vs level 1 alcohols....it is way easier to drink one level 5 alcohol and play (i.e. vanquish, missions, cartography, etc....) watching your drunk minutes in your hero panel off and on then sitting around in a town or outpost mindlessly clicking. They also take up way less inventory room. They should be worth more then 3 level 1 alcohols.

People should stop QQing and either use their alcohol or sell it to someone who will.

P.S.
Please don't try to sell to me as I have already finished my Incorrigible Ale-Hound Title

Well excuuu-uuuuuse me . People should just nicely point out other's mistakes without having to be tards in the process - the world would be a much better place!

I maxed out the drunkard title over a year ago - so I honestly didn't realize this was changed. My bad...

If I had maxed this title the long and painful way and A-net suddenly decided to make it easier, I'd be pissed.

They should make it like sweet tooth/party animal, but change the name, e.i. make it another title and remove the currently existing one. That way the ones who already achieved IAH get recognized for their work if they display the title, and the ones who just clicked 10k times in a row get a separate title which will have lower prestige. (the ones who already have IAS won't be able to gain the other title, and vice versa)

Since all I care about is getting another maxed title for GWAMM title track, but don't really play this game enough to obtain it anytime soon, i'll /sign this.

However just making the current title easier would be unfair to the ones who put alot of time into it, I don't think it'll ever happen.

They already made titles easier to get. Treasure hunter and wisdom being account wide (when some people spent a lot of time chest running on harder chars). Not to mention kurzick faction which people spent months getting through boring hff.

Just because some people (let's face it, a lot of people have used auto clickers and been afk while getting their drunkard title but a few actually did it the right way and I commend them for that) got their title maxed doesn't mean everyone should have been forced to do 10k minutes afk. The title was flawed to begin with, I am sure if you could only use one sweet tooth item every minute/ 3 minutes that people would be complaining for a change just like drunkard.

Many sweets and most party items have no duration at all. They are instant.

For example, the moral recover sweets and the fireworks.

So, making sweets and party items work like drunkard would be even more senseless than how the drunkard works already.

The title was meant to treat those that used to drink while in parties and such and stay drunk, but now is a title that treats keeping the hero panel open with the title list tab selected and looking at a bar.

It must be changed so people no longer have to look at a bar, just drink all the time as much as they want. Whatever the way it is, it must be a 'Fire and forget' way.

the point of the title is time spent being drunk, not number of alcoholic beverages consumed. if they made this change, people would just scream about how much more expensive drunkard will become since so much of the booze ingame is worth more than 1 minute/point towards the title.
