HoM title question - Guild Wars Forums

Gattocheese · Oct 05, 2007, 12:39 AM // 00:39

Now we all know that we will be rewarded in a small way when GW2 comes out through the HoM. Nobody yet really knows the rewards. But i have a question about it that i think needs an answer.

Since i can display a non-max title, such as savior, unlucky, ect.., in my HoM and it shows as a maxxed title and trophy, do i really need to max all titles to reap the benefits in GW2?

Since you basically cant get rank one on every title and show it as a maxxed trophy in you HoM, what determines if that title is maxxed in GW2? Does a person who doesnt max all titles get the same benefits as a person who worked their butt off and maxxed all their titles? I know the HoM is flawed at this time, but whats the incentive to max titles for the HoM?

I have thought that myself, why would anyone want to spend countless hours Grinding to Max the title, if it took them 1/4 of the time to get say Level 4 and be able to display it, and get the "reward" for it in GW2....

Maybe Personal Pride and Self Accomplishment?

speculation would dictate that there will be different rewards for the truly maxed vs. the near maxed.

I don't like the fact that I have to grind to get achievements in GW2. I don't like the fact that I'm giving up GW1 but I less like the fact that it's half half. I want GW2 to be as simple as a fresh clean slate for evry1, took or save a few items or skins but not titles.

Though its just a guess, but I would imagine since Kind of a Big Deal is mentioned directly on the monument that may be the guide to what rank/benifit you recieve in GW2.

My guess is that having any title up there gets you rank 1 title in GW2, you need KOBD ranks to raise its lvl.

Account-wide titles don't need max rank.
Character titles do.

I don't know if the rewards will be better the higher the account-wide titles are though.

I don't know the specifics, but anyone who didn't play GW1 but will play GW2 will not be disadvantaged in any way. Those that did play GW1 will gain some form of benefit in GW2. (That's assuming they got EotN and upgraded their HoM.)
