Only areas i want more heros (and i still even dont) is the areas with no henchman such as DoA, UW, FoW....even then though..
I hope more titles become account wide because lets face it. If you did it once with one character, it should be enough. Like i hav protector of cantha and elona on one character, and prot of tyria on the other....realy dont feel like doing either again lol

11 million subscribers, eh?
If you take away the bots, the extra accounts (there are MANY people who own at least two, largest recorded I belive was something around 32 accounts at once) And you'd likely be down to around ~6 million players total.
Which, is roughly the same as Guild Wars :P

And if you subtract all of the 2nd and 3rd accounts and bot accounts Guild Wars has, the total would also be cut in half.

Suprised no one has said it yet...Id love for SF to get hit...There are other things that concern me, but this makes everything unfair. Then maybe all the farming-only sins will get deleted, and people will actually learn how to use them...
Other than that, Id like to see LDoA reworked as OP said.
AB rewards amped up a little, while HFFF rewards go down.
And yes, NO MOAR HALLOWEEN PLZ!

Honeslty I got no idea about what to expect from such a big update, when we actually know so much about it, some of what's going to be there and what's not.
It's going to be a Title Rebalance update but there are very few changes to titles
I had some big hopes but almost all got crushed during last couple weeks.
Hopes not yet crushed (or I missed something):
*Biggest hope is that the goals won't suddenly become too fast and easy and achievements wont devalue. That things wont become unnecessarily easier and that there won't be any mistakes of Shadow_Form_buff_epic_proportions.
*Improved ways of getting repeats of rep titles after maxing them once - I've been suggesting this for a very very long time, and there were some hints at something alike to happen.
*More vialbe ways for efficient Kurzick/Luxon titles, as efficient as pre-nerf hfff. It's a given?
*Improved AB rewards for those who have max'ed their Allegiance titles, so there's an incentive for both max'ing and keeping playing.
*A way to manage your titles window so it's not a complete mess with least relevant titles on the top and ones you actively work on buried deep and requiring lots of scrolling every time. Oh and an option to replace your useless XP bar with the progress bar of chosen title (or Balth faction).
*Wishful thinking - a fix of the Survivor title so old favorite pre-factions characters get their chance at it (if they left Pre and don't have LDoA)
*More wishful thinking - rework of LDoA title so it's not about hundreds of hours AFK but hundreds of hours of playing with only a little DL'ing required.
*And one more - a new title based on Total Gained Balthazar Faction, not maxable.
*At least 3 pleasant surprises I haven't thought of.

with more than one character looking at eye armor, some other ways than farming raptors, turning in book after book, etc of getting points. After doing these with 7 or so characters I am pretty tired of eye and am rethinking some of my armor choices!
unlucky is alot easier to get than lucky for me (but I guess I am the only one since my lockpicks break 99/100 times...)
same thing for the sunspear and lightbringer points---so far only 1 of my characters has maxed ss (and NONE have lb)....and no, I DONT vanquish--I dont like HM. so some more ways to get those other than that monolith temple area would be a nice change of scenery.

I like that idea a lot. That allows people with single or specific campaigns to tap into "free" titles that show that they've completed most of the challenges their continent has to offer, as well as adding a way to display doing all of every continent. Legendary Savior would be a title worthy of display.

>.> Guild Wars was meant to be grindless, and with it being no-subscription, there is a lack of funds, which means less content. You have the wrong mind-set for Guild Wars if you like grind.

As long as the "some" that don't become account based are the Achievement Titles (which is, in fact, most of the titles), I won't hate you.
7 heroes I support only because henchmen suck, I'd rather see Henchmen get more thought out builds.
Heroes use PvE skills as is, is just imba, however there is a way to make it non-imba. That is, NPCs (not just heroes) can use the non-elite PvE skills/Monster Skills of their reputation/enemy counterparts.

Actually, I think WoW has more bots. Much more. So it would probably still be close, or closer then half (like a 25% difference)

That is actually why I prefer the titles to be set up like that.

people outside the US have to realize that anet is an american based company and updates won't go live until the working hours of PST. which translates into probably noon PST, which, with this update, probably translates into friday afternoon sometime...

What I would like to see.....
Half of the posts on this thread ignored. Another 10k points onto money tracks in exchange for account wide...wtf is wrong with you?
Drunkard changed to the same as party + sweets. If not then I'll just spend another 2600 min finishing that.
Could use something to interest me in chest running and wisdom....spending craploads of money is not it.
Don't give a crap about lucky/unlucky.
Faction titles....buff the hell out of AB so its halfway worth the time. Don't really care what happens to HFF.
The rest of the maxable titles....don't really care much, I have all the ones I want/need. Ldoa could die for all i care.
New titles...../nopoint. If they do, lol free titles for me.
What I expect: Some pointless changes, and some more free money for me from my predictions.
I really don't care what happens tomorrow.

I'll be happy with basically, whatever is changed - Is all a little less grind at the end of the day.
Although, when I said to myself, 'I hope decorations are up a bit longer so I don't miss them again' I really wasn't expecting them to still be up now ^^

Yup, just like you get to do with Ursan.
7 heroes please. That will make the whole game fun again for me.
Better then just playing Sabway or Imbagon all the time.

Phat loot just changes the objective of the grind and further raises the bar for casual players.
