Title says it all, I really don't see what the point of going around capping skills with just 1 character is.
You should cap warrior skills with your warrior, not with your mesmer! I don't see how any mesmer could ever use..say dwarven battle stance or bull charge.

So if any one else agrees with me sign this thread!
Good luck..

bad idea, because it would be too easy to get the title. If anything, they could have 2 seperate titles, one for all unlocked in PvE, one for all unlocked in PvP

Teutonic Paladin · Jul 09, 2006, 12:23 PM // 12:23

Far too easy... and if you don't want DBS or Bull's on a mesmer, don't get it! They aren't required for the maximum skill thingy. (Because it doesn't exist)

Zakarr · Jul 09, 2006, 12:26 PM // 12:26

One option would be to raise required amount of elite skills if the title is account based. I would sign this if they raise the requirement.

Teutonic Paladin · Jul 09, 2006, 12:28 PM // 12:28

There aren't enough elites to raise the requirements anymore...

DFrost · Jul 09, 2006, 12:31 PM // 12:31

There could be another title for having all skills unlocked (elites and normal ones), which might work as account-based.

Since when have titles made sense? Is it practical to explore every inch of uninhabited land on a continent? Is it practical to spend 10,000 minutes drunk instead of playing the game?

That's what makes it special enough to warrant a title.

Advanced Skill Hunter = 180 elites, for one character is an elite title in its own right ........... lets keep it so!

And I agree that there should also be a title for ALL skills and elites (785 in all) capped or unlocked on one character.

Avarre · Jul 09, 2006, 01:47 PM // 13:47

Reprogram skill hunter to count all skills available on one counter, not just elites... I'd approve.

I agree there ought to be separate title for all skills unlocked. From a utility standpoint it would be pointless to get the elites for any class's primary attribute that is not your primary profession.

fiery · Jul 09, 2006, 03:04 PM // 15:04

Character based, not account based. Seeing we can't have a PVP skill hunter :X.

Definitely not signed. It's best as it is now--only a few, dedicated people are going to get this title. I'm at 141 but I ran out of skill points

Tufty · Jul 09, 2006, 04:39 PM // 16:39

Not signed sorry
I'm going for skill hunter with my warrior and pretty much have all the warriors elites. I just swap my secondary around and cap whatever else I can! Most skills are pretty useless but it's a challenge for me to go and get them with a secondary prof that has no use to me. Leave it as it is and like the one of the above posters points out all titles are pretty useless anyway

Pompeyfan · Jul 09, 2006, 06:11 PM // 18:11

/signed - it's stupid having to spend time/gold to cap elite skills on a character that won't or can't use them - you personnally have capped the elite and shouldn't matter on which character you did it, titles should be earned by the account holder not individual characters.

Although it'll never change - ANET like us having to do the exact same repetative tasks multiple times as it makes it seem as if there is more to do in the game than there really is - and what makes it worse is that the bosses you want don't always spawn (took me 4 clearances of perdition rock before I finally got the ranger elite i was after).

Kai Nui · Jul 09, 2006, 06:29 PM // 18:29

I got to 135, but after I got all the primary and all the elites from a few secondaries and then some no attribute and what not skills I might use later I quit at 135. I mean what's the point to getting the primary attribute elites if you'll probably never use them? The only fun exception I can think of is Unyielding Aura or if you just plain don't have them unlocked with faction. It is useless but you have the choice, and gladly it doesn't max out at 180 so you aren't going for it for KOABD... at least we don't know yet.

inscribed · Jul 09, 2006, 07:13 PM // 19:13

/signed.

All of the other titles are given for things that characters would do anyways. Getting all the bonuses? Exploring all of the map? ID'ing alot of golds? All things that characters were doing before titles even existed. But why should my warrior cap an elite based off of another classes primary attribute, like Ether Renewal or something, when its impossible for my warrior to ever use it? The title should be account based, so should wisdom, treasure hunting, cartographer, and drunkard.

Kool Pajamas · Jul 09, 2006, 09:15 PM // 21:15

Maybe this title is supposed to be one of those that you finish after a few more chapters are out? Titles arent made for you to cap them off after a week.

Alleji · Jul 10, 2006, 04:33 AM // 04:33

/not signed

Titles are there to show off, not to be practical. So stop thinking "It's stupid because I'll never use primal rage on my mesmer!"
