Default New BMP Title, "Historian"

I enjoy the BMP, but what really is the point of dsicovery mode? I think it would be nice to make a title track for the Discoveries. Honestly the extra books when books are unlimited is not a reward IMO. So in addition to the new skin, that look better than the GWEN skins, I think there should be a title or a statue at least.
Of course people will say that this isn't fair to those who didn't get the bonus, well guess what, TITLES ARE NOT FAIR. Look at survivor or LDoA.

yeah HM BMP would be fun, might need to tweak some things, keeping talon alive the whole mission would be hard. Mostly the discovery mode seem to scream title to me.

I do like the idea. At least an Statue in the Hall once you have completed them all with discoveries.

I actually kept him alive the whole mission my first try, XD

The hard part is when all those lvl10 tag along. Timing with the healing skill and the rage crucial. Just lucky, I guess.

The game keeps track of the discoveries you do, so a title or statue would be nice. However, giving an account-wide title or statue for the BMP isn't something Anet would do.

I don't like the idea of giving a title for content that you currently can't get anymore. I have the BMP and I still don't like the idea. Statue maybe, but not a title.

this would be a great addition! what does a title really have to do with gameplay anyway? just like the bmp weapon skins. it would just be a fun thing to have a Historian title for completing all 12 discoveries. A monument would be outstanding as well!

Titles are suppose to show real accomplishments that are worth noting, having been able to buy stuff on NCstore and just doing some discoveries would add no value to a title like that

Yeah, I think a title would be the wrong way to go, since not everyone can get it. But I think a statue for the HoM would be nice. Or allow us to place the weapons in the HoM. That would make the extra books worth it.

/notsigned. Hey! Why not just add a max title for completing SF, one for DoA, one for Urgoz, one for Deep, etc. etc. That way we can get the KoaBD title inflation!

HM BMP? Are you crazy guys? You can't customize your skillbars and it's a solo thing.

/notsigned, if you thought the "OMG PLZ GIB ME BMP EVEN THOUGH I DIDN'T BUY ANYTHING IN STORE" threads are bad now, just try tacking a pointless title onto it.

This is incredibly unfair to the population of Guild wars that could not purchase the BMP because of lack of credit cards or simple lack of cash to throw at a game for minimal content.

First, you're correct in saying it's not fair. However, considering that the GW:EN titles are "buyable" titles practically, that's not much of a point.

But more to the point, and the reason for the quote selection, titles like Survivor that takes time and some degree of concentration and LDoA that's just a long haul (I'm still hanging out in pre on one of my characters) are prestigious because of the work involved. PvP max titles are ridiculous in how long they take to get max. PvE grind titles might not require as much/any skill, but take the time to at least do the work.

As yourself - how long does it take to get all 12 discoveries? Yeah. It's a weak title.

/Point to Drunkard, Sweettooth, and Survivor, yeah survivor is the easiest title there is with tomes, ferries and all the gimmicks.
And why not a least a statue, there are 48 unique weapon skins, which look better than the gwen skins. I don't care for weapon skin.

Neither was losing the opportunity to getting Survivor or the ascalon title.

I think if a title were to be added, it would need a harder task than just the discoveries. After a few hours, I got all the discoveries in three missions, and I haven't bothered with Saul. That was with little effort, too. The only one I tried was getting Talon to survive the entire mission.

A statue, I can understand though. I'd rather a statue for each mission. Saul needs to be rememebred.

/signed but for a statue in the HoM not a title, they're worth more than a few simple bonuses.
