I'd prefer for the title to be renamed "avoider of combat".

Truth in advertising, and all that...

I just re-read it and it does make sense, give everyone an equal chance at this title on their main char. It doesn't take a ton of skill after all, just scrolls and boxing

Doesn't seem like it has downsides for anyone really and a chance to get another max title is nice.

I may have missed something, but I want to make clear that I don't believe it would be fair to utilize this option multiple times with the same character (as if someone would want to anyways). Once a character makes a Heart of Transference, their Survivor options should be gone again.

I agree with the idea, but think it should be for all non-account wide titles.

I REALLY like this idea.

There's just one problem...

What if your character already has the death leveled Defender of Ascalon title?

Then you'd give that character a Survivor's Heart.

That character would get both titles?

Yes he would, but LDoA and LS were not always mutually exclusive. At least one person has both titles, a quick forum search would display this screen shot of both title, and how he did it.
I suggested doing the same treatment to LDoA, mb call it the "Shield of Tranferance" because it being a Defender title.
Mostly my drive for this is the fact that HoM is nto account based, and it seem benefits will only be gotten through one character feats. I, and i'm sure many others, have their first character that they teasured and have most achievements on, and then made a secondary characters to get survivor seeing how their Main couldn't. I would like this achievement on my alt to count for something when GW2 comes along, and this solution allows that to happen.

mostly because this is a very important issue - fairness for everyone, so old players don't get disadvantaged.

For even more fairness I'd add additional requirememt - the heart has to come from a character of the same Profession and continent of birth - so the player has to actually replay the beginning of life of the gimped char and not create a farming monkey to farm survivors for all other chars. Yes, the character giving his/her heart should DIE (have the surv bar removed, not just emptied)

The same could apply to LDoA but with keeping the restriction of LDoA and Survivor being mutually exclusive (a character with LDoA shouldn't be able to use the Survivor Heart, and a Survivor(1+) shouldn't be able to use the LDoA one)

But there is need and room for improvement - the achievements of LDoA and Survivor should matter, even if it's on an odd char that has no other titles. Which is why I'd rather see improvements to the general achievement aggregation mechanics - Kind of a Big Deal title track should count unique max'ed titles on the account, so a character that's not LDoA can't display it but the title still counts. And obviously HoM should undebatably be account based, so even if your favorite character has never been able to achieve one of those titles, and won't display them, he can still see the monuments in the common HoM belonging to the whole 'family'.

WEll I really hope anet would make this posible but this probably isnt coiming to be true because this would take alot of time and anet only cares about gw2.

BUT I REALLY WISH THIS WOULD COME TRUE

Or perhaps 'Legendary dwarvern Boxer'?

At first when I read this, I said to myself, "Well that sucks. The purpose of the two titles was to be mutually exclusive, I thought." I was going to post that this was a bad idea because of that.

But now that I think about it, this isn't a problem. If they willingly put into the game a way of making LDoA and LS not exclusive from each other, other people can't complain if they don't have Prophecies. That would be the same as someone that only have Factions and Prophecies complaining that they can't have SS and LB.

Transfer of the LDoA title might break the whole meaning of the title, but I don't suppose you can have transfer of LS without transfer of LDoA.

/Signed. Nice idea.

I do however have 1 additional limitation I'd like to see implemented along with this. Survivor can only be transferred from "like" characters. For example my survivor experience heart can only be transferred from Warrior to Warrior or from Assassin to Assassin, etc.

I've seen other threads where people complain, "well sure, you earned survivor on your backline Elementalist, now try earning it on a frontline warrior"
