The idea that PvP requires so much more skill than PvE is entirely overrated and exaggerated especially having played more PvP lately I see no noticeable skill that impresses me.
Bottom line is that there are tricks for most titles anyway, PvE or PvP, so the whole PvP vs PvE thing is pointless to bring up yet again. Get over it.

Obviously though Multi Maxed titles are where it's at now a days. No one cares for solitary Maxed titles anymore. But who's really impressed anyways?
It's just some words from some movie that were very meaningless in the scene.

Funny thing is I farm glad points with cookie cutter builds... things that make you go, hmm? Farming titles are the same for me in both arenas. Find whatever works and work it. Get it?

Before I respond, I play both PvP and PvE. Being realistic... PvE and PvP both only allow eight skills. Each skill, combined together, produce a desired result. I think people are fooling themselves when they think one is greater than the other. In normal mode PvE, the game sucks and is easy as hell to beat. You run a couple builds and coast through the game. In regular PvP, you run a couple builds and smash the majority of bad PvP players out there.
Now, Ursan is the equivalent of a cookie cutter PvP build (nuff said... guildwars made easy). Farming gold, faction, and PvP rank is all farming/grinding. The majority of PvE/PvP players do not use many builds, in fact, many only use one or two.
The only difference I have seen in guild wars comes when you are talking High End PvP vs High End PvE. I will side with anyone who says High End PvE is weaker than High End PvP. That only results because there is documentation in what you are going to face in PvE. In PvP, you never know what you are up against. Many people run builds that are great until they meet their counter build... or counter team build. In PvE, you are given the chance to prepare for what you will definitely face.
Last, I don't see the huge difference, they are just two styles of gameplay that don't really require that much more intelligence. I have met dumb players from both sides and also really great players from both sides.

Of course you do not use any profanity or words like stupid and idiot but your condescending attitude, besides from being completely arbitrary and baseless, should actually be enough to be banned from this forum as you are basically saying that no one can or should be taking any pride from their PvE experience, and that they are by your standards inferior if they do. You don't actually call PvE players stupid but that's exactly what you are saying nonetheless.
So hereby my invitation to you. Please stop talking down to people and just post when you have something more sensible to say than what you have produced in this thread so far. One might start to think that you are actually a troll that uses a less direct approach and I would certainly hope and think you have better to offer.

I decided to put everything I could into the big box of freebies for Saxifrage the Second, so I have to go for 20 maxed titles (I'm at 15 atm). But I have to say, I am still proudest of my Legendary Guardian title.

It's called having a civilized discussion.

That's your opinion, you are entitled to one; just like I'm entitled to my own.

Again a matter of opinion. I stated a point of view shared by many players (as evident even from just this thread) that PvE titles are a grind fest, and that the amount of skill involved in getting them requires time (aka grinding) and not skill.

You are clearly putting words in my mouth.

Here's my invitation to you: Please compare high end PvE aka HM/Elites to high end PvP aka high rank GvG and HoH. If you think that going against known monster types with very predictable spawns controlled by AI, using skills that are well known to anyone who can type the word wiki; requires the same amount of skill it takes to go against a team of real players using unkown skills/builds with no known "hardwired" pathway or behavior... If you think both scenarios require the same amount of skill, then there is clearly no point in continuing this discussion.
I voiced a concern shared by many in the game, that PvE titles have turned the game into a grind fest, and that titles that reward grinding should not be considered "prestigious" in response to the OP question. Whether you agree with it or not, it is clearly a valid point.

You can have a general idea about what the enemy is running in HA with certain accuracy,that is correct. But that is a different from knowing every skill on each monsters bar in a given area as in PvE.

PVP is pointless,boring and detrimental to the games social atmosphere. Earning PVE titles is enjoyable and increases the replaybility of the game by a huge amount, ive now voiced an opinion many other players hold. Its a valid point, lol.

Get over the dumb RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GOing cat pics.
I used to be impressed by r12 hero, but theres a lot of bad r12's now so it's not that impressive. I'm impressed by high Glad ranks, thas about it lol.
You can get basically any PvE title now with heroes and henchies so it's really not that impressive.

This is ridiculous. I would really LOVE to see a bunch of PvE scrubs enter HA and try to grind some fame. See, the thing is, you have to actually have the skill to beat another team of actual people. Not a group of shadow elementals that do the exact same thing every time you agro them.
But sure, go ahead, I'd love to see how you do. I'm sure 5 fame will be a really good achievement.

Go HA ID 1, Mctigger is rank 6 on one of his accounts, rank 4 on another etc, But yes imo the most prestigious title for pve is the Maxed Title Track.
For PvP it's the Champion Title imo...
You cant compare pvp and pve titles imo, they both take a lot of time to reach, but you just cant compare them because pve and pvp are almost two different worlds, and the discussion of which is better is just useless.
