Default Title: Experience Title Track - Master

Would you please consider an experience title track, maybe maxing out at 10,000,000 xp.

Of all the titles, the most important track of how much experience a character has earned doesnt have a title track, and it makes no sense.

I would call the experience title track, Master with the following approximate values.
10,000,000 Grand Master
5,000,000 Master
2,500,000 Guru
1,000,000 Expert
500,000 Professional
250,000 Journyman
100,000 Adept

Further, all the titles and factions bars, would be really nice if you could double click and send the progress bar value to the chat window. "<Character> has 20/25 toward Protector of Tyria", for example, or <Character> has 1,500,000 Experience points.

Of course people could fake it, but it is still an obvious interface upgrade.

Hasn't this been suggested just a little while ago? Anyway, I don't like it, there's no point in it and no effort, experience is reflected in almost every other title as well as your character level. We don't really need another title for it, especially not one without benefits, except if you like showing how much you love grinding, it's like having a title for how much gold you've managed to amass.

This has been suggested, and beaten down, so many times I've lost count. Any trained monkey can go out and farm all day long for experience with no actual skill involved. No need for another worthless title.

Sorry, but we don't need yet another grind. I already spend plenty of time doing that.

For the last time: No.

Getting more exp is done by solo farmers.

A title should not reward a solo farmer.

I like this suggestion because it gives you at least something for gaining much experience over level 20.

Why not have a title thats made from playing the game.
Non of the other titles are just playing
Treasure Hunter - Want it you chest run
Alliance - AB/FFF
SS/LB - Farm one area
Explorer is scraping every area but not "playing" them
Lucky - AFK

Current Play the game titles are the mission track ones and no others

And just how many do you think would actually play the game for the title rather than solo-grind in one area to max it out? Perhaps you didn't think it through quite thoroughly before posting that comment.

As long as the last track is "I'm A Solo Farmer" then it's fair game =)

There are lots of ways to earn experience, quests, missions, even pvp. This is general experience and there needs to be a way to show how much you have played the game via title. Otherwise, what is the point of titles.

Further, I searched before I posted this idea and I did not see any other experience title track posts. I have searched again, and one came up that is closed, and was almost universally supported.

um yea, well i think if there was an experience title it should have no max and use the Virtual level formula and juts be like "Virtual Lvl 32" or something, cuase then it cqant go for KoaBD and its kinda cool.....

also yea people who bitch about titles being too hard to get or grind fest like it was said before, titles in no way affect your gameplay...... they are only to go "OH OH OH LOOK AT ME I HAVE NO LIFE OH OH OH" just because a bot has a title is that going to impead your gameplay...... no. are you going to even notice that a bot has a title, most likely not...... so why do you care?

maybe if the experience is gained through full teams,so solo/lowered member farming is not counted

and you are required to actually kill some enemies for pts with stuff like trasure hunter so you can see ppl actually EARNED it instead of stayed in one place and ran around a single area,but even then,the lucky title track and unlucky is usually(well you arent going to watch your title go up VERY slowly for hours on end)
but there are alot of effortless ways to gain other titles,but for AFK'ers,there should be something to sense them not doing anything so they can sleep theyre titles GoOdByE

So if you are so concerned about someone elses title, couldnt you ask to see a protector title, or other title to confirm that they actually play the game?

The titles for 'playing the game' would be the PvP titles and the Missions titles....

But we also lack a Quest titles.

They should work on it.

Experience is almost pointless in GW. You can get skills and skillpoints without experience.

I have more than 700 points in one character with only around 6 million exp.

Liked the idea to display a virtual level instead of a "title"
It should follow the formula so each level takes more than the last as opposed to the skill point aquisition "levels"

I'd like experience to count for something i dont see the point in it once you unlock everythign on a character, however i can see the point that this is a pretty useless title in itself. getting xp is too easy, most other titles are not that easy
