Triple Protector + 2/3 Skill Hunter...

Too long to try to figure out. All five of my characters have it, and I started playing in December of 2005.

Issac · May 14, 2008, 11:02 PM // 23:02

Well after the title was implemented it took a few months.

ThunderStruck · May 14, 2008, 11:03 PM // 23:03

In terms of "I'm only maxing this for KoaBD" time about 5 months, but almost two years of total play time.

Jetdoc · May 14, 2008, 11:05 PM // 23:05

About 3 years, and none of my five characters have KOABD. That's the price of not buying into the title thing.

When I decided to get it, it took about 4 months, since I decided to do it so it meant something. I got all 3 protector titles fairly quickly, then I mapped for 3.5 months and got Grandmaster Cartographer. One of them + 1 skill cap title = R1 Koabd

exactly 5 days

I Can Cure Cancer · May 14, 2008, 11:21 PM // 23:21

one and a half years for me. In total playtime though it probably only took me like 50 hours. 3 protectors are extremely easy then so are LB and SS. KOABD isn't really an accomplishment, but when it gets to >15 it gets ridiculously grindy.

in gaming terms <month, in character age, 2.5 years (nearly r5 now yay)

still waiting for someone with 5 maxed title accounts to come on and say "amount of time it takes me to create a new character" (does anyone even have 5 maxed title accounts o.O?)

Seriously doubt it, but its actually possible now with the Zaishen title. Both faction titles, and lucky/unlucky though unlucky is absolutely ridiculous, no reason to make it an extra tier.

Alleji · May 15, 2008, 04:16 AM // 04:16

I got it instantly when Elite Skill Hunter (5) turned into 4 maxed titles.

I preferred it the old way, though

arcanemacabre · May 15, 2008, 04:22 AM // 04:22

Well, I started going for Vanquisher on my Necro about two months ago, and hit Elona first. Within a month, I got it and Sunspear, my first two maxed titles. I'm about 1/4 of the way through Tyria, and 1/4 of the way through Cantha right now. Seeing as how max Vanq title is technically 4, I will have KoBD by the end, which I estimate will be another two months or so.

So my guess would be 4 months total, but time will tell. (If I get addicted to AoC, it will be a lot longer than that...)

Nemesis of God · May 15, 2008, 04:26 AM // 04:26

3 months on monk - LS, Protector of Cantha/Elona, Guardian of Cantha/Elona.
Still haven't done Great Northern Wall NM

Now SS/LB, then guardian and protector of Tyrian, and i have 10 maxed titles, in 4 month.

Lord Sojar · May 15, 2008, 04:33 AM // 04:33

2 months or so. Had to do Tyrian Vanquisher.... le grrr.

I can have 10 max anytime I want, as I have 2 HM Dungeon books sitting in storage, filled and finished.

I have a ton of titles I just need to get unlazy about, and finish. Hell, I am probably close to r4 KoaBD, but I am just lazy.

Three years in and only one character has KAOBD (and it is rank 1). It's a Dervish so 18 months or so? I haven't done a /age in a while but it was created the day Nightfall was released.

But then I've never really been a title hunter either. I only work on advancing them on bonus weekends. That's not to say I never work on them otherwise, but really being bored and capping two elites one day or doing three snowman lair runs next week doesn't really count as "working towards a max title" - they are just nice things to do if I have 15-30 minutes to play and want something to do.

The only three titles I ever really wanted was the protector ones simply because you played most of the missions different to get it. I'm not interested in Guardian because it is simply doing the same thing over again - I doubt I will ever get that.

By the time GW2 comes out I will have rank 2 from the allegiance titles, protector titles, and the skill hunter titles but I can already note that rank 3 has too many titles that you have to specifically title grind for so I will most likely never achieve it. If I blow my gold on titles like Sweet Tooth (and that will be decided by the rewards in GW2) I may bother with an explorer or two to get rank 3 but I highly doubt it (too lazy).

This is pretty much what I do. At this point, Vanquisher is the only title I've actively achieved, and mainly because it gives me a sense of purpose in GW while still enjoying all the various zones and enemies. Protector would probably be my next 'mission,' if I'm still playing at that point, of course.

Amadei · May 15, 2008, 05:46 AM // 05:46

Been playing for 31 months, no KoABD on anyone.

Pleikki · May 15, 2008, 06:21 AM // 06:21

mm For first Koabd it took 28months. but yeah if with new char would start get it. maybe month or two.

Zahr Dalsk · May 15, 2008, 06:22 AM // 06:22

I like playing multiple characters so no KoaBD for me.

Rebelor · May 15, 2008, 06:34 AM // 06:34

KoaBD--about a week after titles were introduced. i should have GWaMM by the end of summer.

Elia · May 15, 2008, 06:36 AM // 06:36

Few weeks after title release.
