the wall hugging title is already lame enough, no need to multiply it. I see what ya mean, but then level one nubs out of pre searing would be grandmaster cartographers and that's plain wrong :P

Imo, the only two that aren't that should be are the skill hunter and wisdom ones. The mission ones make sense to be per character (Imagine a level one in ascalon with Protector of Cantha?), same with the Cartographer.

Not the explorer ones, getting explorer is harder on a mesmer ect.
Protector, umm no. It's a title that displays your skill with that char..
Sunspear and Lightbringer.. Yes please.. Don't want to grind twice for these..

Treasure hunt, wisdom & drunkard should be account wide. The first two have ingame benefits and in the current state they favor people with fewer or only one character over people who play many professions. And i see no difference between drunkard and the lucky/unlucky titles.

I agree that with some titles it would be ludicrous to give the exact representation as we have now. Which is why I think a different presentation of the title should exist for titles not on the character but on the account.
For example, if a character has a title on that he did not specifically earn, it should be in green. This way the player gets recognition, but not necessarily the character.
Ultimately, protector title isn't that important as being account-wise but other titles, such as 'Treasure Hunter', which are really hard to get multiple times should be account-wide. This way it would also be possible to increase requirements. 350 chests for the 'Treasure Hunter' title, if all characters help contribute to it.
It would act to increase enthusiasm for titles. Now it feels kind of like; 'OK, I got the title... but, now I'm going to play a different character and all my recognition is lost... dang..."

Skill Hunter, Seeker of Wisdom, and Treasure Hunter all should be account-wide...

It depends on what you want Skill Hunter to show:
a) This account has X number of elite skills unlocked.
b) This character has X number of elite skills.
Option (a) is what an account-wide skill hunter title would show, whereas option (b) is what a per-character skill hunter title shows (which is how it is now. From a PvE perspective I think (b) is more useful, because I don't care how many elite skills Joe Whammo has unlocked for PvP if his current character doesn't have any of them.

oh it is not... I soloed Maguuma/Kryta/Crystal Desert/Ascalon and I'm on 86% tyrian, but now I have to take henchies throught he southern shiverpeaks because its too hard to solo that area. Well, just Lornar's Pass and some of the mission areas.
The account-wide skill hunter would be weird, as the possible number of elite skills cappable is unlimited when you can delete your characters.

How is it limited now? You can keep getting exp and more skill points forever.
I would like to see this implemented, just how is the problem, I really don't want to do everything on all my characters so right now I have to choose a favourite and do it all with them.

An account-wide version would presumably be based on how many elites are unlocked...

I would say that Wisdom, Treature Hunter, and Drunkard should be account-wide. These require a lot of cash to acquire and gives those with higher levels better benefits. Thus, the rich get richer.
Not sure about Sunspear and Lightbringer, as I haven't started Nightfall PvE XD

sunspear/lightbringer- definetely. they are like faction (the way i interpret them). give them to us aaaall.
drunkard, wisdom, treasure hunter (as said by pheonix), skill hunter, wisdom seeker or whatever it is called. All of these would be much more convenient account wide. Screw identifying 100+ gold weapons on each character to get your title. Not gonna happen.

Account-based elites unlocked wouldn't work with the PvP Editions, since they unlock all the elites for you.

Leave the rest be.

The only Titles I would like to see account wide are the Sunspears and Lightbringer titles. I wouldn't really like to have to grind for those titles with my 5 other characters. Maybe treat them like Luxon/Kurzick Faction?

Cartographer, protector, drunkard and skill hunter should stay the way they are, for the character only.
I've always thought wisdom and treasure hunter shouldn't, not because they are something an account accomplishes, but just because if you want to go for the titles you end up trying to transfer all your golds to one character, open all chests with one character etc. And now that they affect salvaging, I definitely think it. Now if I want something salvaged without losing the item, I have to transfer it.
Sunspear I'm not that bothered about. I got enough sunspear points to progress just from doing the quests in the game, and I know that even if it was account wide, I would do those quests again. But it just won't happen with sunspear points, they are intricately tied in to the storyline and progression of your character; getting your 15 attribute points, getting to a new area, use of special sunspear skill etc.

I think all PvE titles should be character based. Including Friend of the Luxon/Kurzick, and Lucky/Unlucky.
