Sure why not. Such a hassle to log out and log back in to ID stuff on another character. I'm up to rank 5 Font Of Wisdom on my warrior and have no problem having this title or any others displayed on other characters. Really don't see the harm in it.

Voted yes, anything with in game benefits should be account wide to remove the advantage single character players have over multi-tooned players.

For sure! It takes forever to get these titles and it sucks even worse doing it across multiple characters. Now granted I can see why it's useful to show your achievements for one character, but still. I think it should still be account-based.

I will say yes because....I will be closer to R4 Wisdom and T hunter Lol.


But no also because some people are incredable rich and have no lifes and we have to accept that

people like that have alredy spent millions of gold on these titles its too late to change

This one should be most obvious.

Character based Treasure Hunter strongly encourages single character playstyle and practically punishes those who want to play with multiple different ones - your lockpicks/keys used don't count to your title you work on and you don't get retention bonuses.
Character based Wisdom doesn't cause that problems (you can just move your golds to your wisdom char, minor annoyance) but with changing TH there's no reason not to change this one aswell.

Don't underestimate the +20-40% gold/hr advantage given to a 7/7 toon due to the 92% salvage chance that they have.

Considering the benifits of the title and the cost of getting it there, it should be the same as Lucky.

yes

Off course they should. I know some people who have actually left GW because they got angry about having to tranfer gold drops arroun each time to id them on the same character.

personally I'm not into either tittle, I don't open chests (unless in specific area's) and I id on each character I play with, but the it makes perfect sense to make them account wide imo.

wow, never tire of the new threads for what is essentially the same question?

make it simple - the only title's that shouldn't be account based are:

protector/guardian
skill hunter
survivor
legendary defender

they're the only titles that require anything of the player to achieve, beyond simply time. logically then, they're the only titles that shouldn't go account wide.

oh, and to put some effort back into survivor - make a KO in the tournament count as a death.

Its as annoying to move stuff to id char as is passing chests unopened with non-title char.

Besides, chests were supposedly goldsink. I ain't sinking much gold if only one character is opening them.

These two titles should be account based. The amount of time it takes to get these titles is far longer than any other title.

The Treasure hunter title affects lockpick retention rate (as does Lucky title, which is account based) and having the same retention rate across all characters would help to encourage people who like to play multiple characters to do so.

The Wisdom title should be account based because it would make playing on multiple characters less of a burden. No more putting unid's in storage then switching characters just to ID the stuff. Since A-Net seems to want to facilitate the use of multiple characters, making these to titles account based would be a very good way to do that.

u know this is the exact reason i refuse to use lockpicks atm. I play many different characters, and yet if i were to use lockpicks whilst out and about, i'd never get a single title for years. If it were account based, i'd have a chance since they'd all be working towards the same goal. However, as it stands, i only use lockpicks i happen to find, which is a shame, but then they made really important titles like these character based. Isn't that the biggest shame of them all for a game that promotes multi-character use by gving players 8 character slots to begin with and a way to buy more?

they're finally making the HoM account based now, so they know full well people use more than 1 character, so why do they insist on grindy, rediculouse titles to still be character based?

in the one hand they're saying with the HoM, we know u feel cheated with multi characters, yet at the same time promote single character use with these titles.

granted some should be character based, such as protector/guardian and the like. But since accounts SHOULD only be 1 player (it says in the EULA somewhere, account sharing it against the rules) why they think the same person is gonna spend another year and a half grinding the same title to have it an another character that are both HIS/HERS???
