Curse

Besides what we know about Treasure Hunter and Wisdom going account based, the Kurzick and Luxon titles being revamped in different ways, and any speculation one might make on this weekend being related to Vanquisher, I'd like to hear what everyone is interested in, hoping to, dreaming about, etc, seeing in Thursday's title revamp.

Here's my hopeful list, among others:
- Stealth update to make all Gamer events work under the consecutive point gain system seen in CB.
- Slight rework of Survivor and LDoA.
- Small scale systems for minimized grind on secondary characters after maxing "grind" titles on your first.
- Vanquisher Chests.
- Split title display and functionality (go2sardelac).
- Bigger point rewards for non-repeatable quests.

Discuss.

Getting rid of titles is what I wish for. I know thats not happening though so I just want less grind for the current ones I guess.

zelgadissan · Nov 13, 2008, 01:06 AM // 01:06

Pretty much Shayne's list, plus making the completely bought titles (aka Drunkard, Sweet Tooth, Party Animal) account-wide.

BlueNovember · Nov 13, 2008, 01:07 AM // 01:07

I like most of those points. I don't see a problem with current Survivor/Ldoa/title function though. (Especially if the alternative to title effects is have my status bar permanently cluttered...)
The reduced rep-title grind given a previous char has already maxed is a very good idea.

+some incentive to actually do non-primary quests. They can be fun, it's a shame so much content is missed out on due to lack of reward. Add a quest title or something more imaginative

I am hoping that in Thursday's supposed update (lord only knows these things have been delayed before...) that they make every title account based or they delete titles altogether.

JeniM · Nov 13, 2008, 01:10 AM // 01:10

Anything that makes me want to play the game. I like chasing titles but I know I'm not going to max anymore than the ones I have now unless something is done to improve them.
I start to work at a title spend an hour, get some tiny fraction of a percentage of the way to the next level then get bored and don't play for another month.
Atleast this way everytime I log in I seem to have another bday present.

Jensy · Nov 13, 2008, 01:10 AM // 01:10

I think I'm just hoping for the update itself, heh.

If we DON'T get the big title update, I'm hoping for at least the handing out of tournament reward points from the last mAT.

ETA: Also, for the love of shit, TAKE DOWN THE HALLOWEEN DECORATIONS! (please)

ALF71BE · Nov 13, 2008, 01:10 AM // 01:10

I'm hoping that ANet doesn't screws it over, again.

I'm also hoping to get my zkeys the first day.

slowerpoke · Nov 13, 2008, 01:16 AM // 01:16

it would be a mistake to expect too much, it will only result in dissapointment

Voodoo Rage · Nov 13, 2008, 01:16 AM // 01:16

Add 10 more into raptor cave...

Cale Roughstar · Nov 13, 2008, 01:19 AM // 01:19

Pretty much Shayne's list tbh.

Anything that will make them more appealing/(easy?)/fun, because now for the most part I cant be bothered to spend the time working on them.

trader reset.

Unlimited opening of Zaishen Chest

Yay for more hype threads on this.

My hopes:

- Shayne's List
- Changes to Kurzick/Luxon Titles and Faction Cap
- Drunkard/Sweet Tooth/Party Animal getting rank 3 (20k) and become account based
- Fix to Unlucky (compared to Lucky, it's slightly more grindy)
- pentople the current rewards to Vanquishing (so that it gives 25x monsters killed, not 5x)
- Rework of the Legendary Titles as follows:

Legendary Savior

Legendary Master of Tyria
Protector, Guardian, Vanquisher, Cartographer, Skill Hunter of Tyria
Legendary Master of Cantha
Protector, Guardian, Vanquisher, Cartographer, Skill Hunter of Cantha
Legendary Master of Elona
Protector, Guardian, Vanquisher, Cartographer, Skill Hunter of Elona
Legendary Master of the North

(wouldn't mind the removal of protector/guardian/vanquisher/cartographer/skill hunter and make those titles with Master titles work like LMotN - skill hunter for EN would act similar to core elites now, they count to multiple titles.)

- Addition of "Adventurer" Title (Quest Title Track)
- Addition of rank 7 to KoaBD Title Track (The Legend of <Character Name>)
- And lastly, and most important, the update itself.

I think the best way to add the "Adventurer" title (due to some characters not getting quests, and some mutually exclusive quests) would be to put them under the above proposed Master titles, and increase the LMotN point req for max (so that it's not too easy to max, but yet easier). And for the three other newer LMo titles would just make max just under max quests done (so that you can leave say 5 quests undone if you're a foreign character) - so characters from that campaign can get the LMo title a lot easier, but it wouldn't need weird number changes for each place the character is made.

What I expect:
The update to come eventually.

Something to make vanquishing at least a little bit fun. Honestly, if you can kill one generic mob, you can kill them all. It just gets grindy after a while.

pumpkin pie · Nov 13, 2008, 01:44 AM // 01:44

That it's going to be delay!

and they fix a certain problem that i dislike very much!

Thats a good idea. Have a relative of Kepkhet settle into eotn.

Red Sonya · Nov 13, 2008, 01:51 AM // 01:51

More grindy things.

I don't understand the few who don't like grind, if there wasn't grind in the game there would be nothing left to play for. Grind is the only thing left because they never put any phatt loot into the game. Paultry 20 levels hahaha no wonder WOW is so famous and has 11 million subscribers.

oeg82000 · Nov 13, 2008, 01:51 AM // 01:51

make most of titles acc.based
let use 7 heros in 8 men party
let heros use pve skills
