Oh, that's already implemented. It's called female elementalist Vabbian Armor, the only genuinely bare bottom armor set in the game

Um....nope, I don't have to admit that. In fact, it's just not true. The title is the reward; no one else gets an in-game reward for their fantastic expenditures of time and money, why should this title?

The title is enough of an reward.

What have they done to earn awesome things ?
They just played the game, filled in their time with getting the titles (While title-hunting you also earn a lot of money & items)

So there is absolutely NO need for extra rewards.

Unless you get Gwamm in pre-searing , then you should get all items available in game =]

/notsigned for skills. Because skills should be reasonably accessible for anyone without too much grinding etc.

/signed for an emote. The KoaBD deserves a series of emotes.

Giving actual game benefits to title grinders is a terrible idea. This game wasn't meant to be about who spent the most time on mindless tasks.

Wrong. Anet has departed from that original premise a long, long time ago. Grind titles are just a natural evolution of that departure.

No. 30 titles is making players dedicate a vast amount of time into a single char already. I liked it in the olden days when one could play about with 6 different chars.

Hmmm...I keep hearing the same stuff over and over, but nobody actually giving a completely valid reason for stating it:

1) "Titles are for e-peen only" - Nobody has ever said anything to me about my title(s), and frankly I would be surprised if they did. Family and friends will congratulate me when I get a new one, because I enjoy pursuing goals. I don't go around telling everyone, but I enjoy having it displayed because I do take pride in achieving the goal. I don't care if anyone notices. I would be willing to bet that it is true for the majority of players. Of course, the only ones you will ever hear say anything are the ones for whom this is not true. A loud 1% will always be more noticed than a mute 99%. Whenever I see a high-rank in the KoaBD displayed, I whisper to tell them congrats, or to show respect. I have never once gotten a reply. The majority just don't seem to care if you recognize them or not.

2) "Titles make this a grind/time-based game rather than skill-based" - Simply untrue. There are certain things that I just cannot do yet because I have not gotten good enough. I can do most things. Eventually, everyone should be able to do everything (who cannot mimic a skill bar and punch keys on a keyboard?) but it takes time to develop those skills. Not everyone starts out being the greatest, but with any game like this there will be a plateau. It does not mean the game is now grind-based, it is simply that the max skill required has been reached. Let me provide an example. Currently I am vanquishing (heroes and hench only). There are certain areas in each campaign that I have not been able to vanquish, and I know I am still not ready for them. But as I vanquish other areas, I keep learning more effective ways to choose my skill setup and orders to use my skills. As I get better, I come across areas that are similar to others that I had abandoned, but find I can now handle them. I return to the old area and knock it out. This has happened several times. Frequently I go into an area and get wiped within ten minutes. I now know where the popups are and the patrols and I do it smarter the next time. So it may be grind to those that have already reached the max-skill required, but for the rest of us it is still very much skill-based - and fun to boot!

On topic, I do not know how much I think someone should benefit for reaching GWAMM. I guess personally, I am ambivolent. I might make it....but I expect r5 to be the highest for me. And even if I did make it, I still don't think I would care. It's just a game. Just please quit throwing out the poorly formed ideas concerning your disdain for titles. They are not as much of a grind as many people think (but you can definitely make it a grind by copying cookie-cutter builds if that is fun to you!), and the majority of title possessors don't care whether or not you notice their title.

On topic-we have enough PvE skills. I wouldn't mind seeing either an emote based on KoaBD, or maybe once you reached GWAMM you get a special mini or something.

Even though i have the title.../notsigned
There are already enough PvE-skills. I'd like a bonus...but not a +armor bonus.

Uhmm no? U know why?

Under that tittle, there are many benefits from all other tittles already

Beside, it's the best sounding tittle in the game!

Bear with it!
