i don't think wisdom title is a sink, necessarily. I'm 1/2 way, and that's from doing very, very light chest runs (Raisu Pavilion on hard mode about 10x) plus anytime i come across a high end chest, zchest drops, and just random gold drops. had i spent every gold piece i've ever owned, yes i could have had the title "Selling XXX unid'd GOLD weps 200g a peice!!!!______***_____****" can get you there pretty quick. :P

i am running chest now for like 2 years and i still get some nice items
these items sell then for 80-100K+

i think a weekend with double the points wil do great
the title is something personal so if you grinded it in 3 weeks non stop or so
i think is givs not the satisfaction thn you get it with normal chest runs and picking the chest along the way

just my opinion..

There were times when chestrunning was actually fun (not solo) AND profitable (untill hard mode uber gold item drop rates devastated the market)!

Please no double gold item drop rate from chests weekends, this won't help.
Fix the economy instead, tbh.
Not possible? At least add some new potentially valuable drops to chests! More of the same (double gold drop rates) can make things only worse.

As for Wisdom, it's now easier than ever thanks to HardMode insane gold item drop rates. Solo farm 10-15 golds per hour wasn't possible before HM and people still had this title maxed.
I think you are misunderstanding what I'm suggesting. I just want a weekend where the points is doubled from identifying one gold unid not two dropping from one chest. This would certainly help reduce the amount of money needed to be spent. As for those who are saying that it will be too easy to max treasure hunter in this weekend, it takes weeks to max it maybe even a month or so if you grind endlessly.

Im all for the Hard things to do keeping the game intresting over a long time.

But just look at the Hero Title Track, its all fun but sometimes people just want a push,Thats why when its a double fame event the HA turnout is so high.

I think hes trying to say it would be nice to make some of the titles hard but can be attained in this lifetime/year/month, how ever you look at it.

and so /signed

Exactly, I'm not looking for an event that you can easily max treasure hunter with. This weekend just gives a nice little boost to those trying to make it to 10,000 chests which is a pretty high number.

Yeah i agree...

Treasure Hunter and Wisdom both need a weekend bonus. 10 000 of each are crazy long grinds to get. For all of you who have tried to get lets say even rank 4 ort 5 in this title you know its a LONG grind. A weekend with 2 points for 1 chest or ID would be great in the fact that it would give a bonus to people currently going for this title. This weekend is NOT going to let people get the title in 1 weekend. I mean c'mon it is currently a 3 week title to grind... maybe more or less depending on how much you play. And also, the current weekend evernts are getting boring. Almost as boring as all the reskined armour.

Why couse the only thing Anet is thinking about, is how to make more
titels..so they make people grinding.. GuildWars has not mutch to offer
when you play it from the beginning, so instead of inplant a new drop system
or making new quest with spelical things ( and no not just the solo bonus missions.) Couse that is a stupid thing to in a mmorpg.

They should make treasure hunter and wisdom acount based. How many core
players where there who spend a huge amount of keys even before the
treasure title was born.

Anet is killing the game with this stupid passive grinding instead of giving a
real boost for this great game.

for 2 for 1 points

because then it will definativly would make it appear a grind based title, although some people get enjoyment out of it.

/signed for the X3 chance to get gold

not sure what the deal with all the /notsigneds is. It's just the exact same concept as the double anything weekends.

/signed, because it has no more positive or negative effect than the other double weekends. Not that I'd start running chests for the weekend or anything since the extent of my chest opening is taking a lockpick or 2 while going vanquishing.

I don't see how this would let you get a maxed title in a single day just like 2x SS/LB does. As I said before, all it does is reduce the grind and help all PvE players even if they don't grind chests because they can just help their title along as they vanquish and do missions.
