Make GWAMM applicable for a players entire account for each UNIQUE title their characters have attained (2x LB won't count.) Suggested for two reasons:

EDIT: Seems like I wasn't clear enough. All the current Char based titles can still be character based, GWAMM will just take each unique title any char has into account. For the people that don't want a lvl1 char /w the title, how about only unlocking it on a character only when they have 10 titles maxed.

Reason 1 being that it will make it easier on the people whose main characters never attained Legendary Survivor or LDoA to still get a chance to have those count towards their total.

Reason 2 being that having access to the two mutually exclusive titles (Survivor/LDoA) will make Alehound unnecessary.

Does anyone else remember that in the months leading up to the HOM "upgrade" ANet said something to the tune of "We feel that under the current system, players are discouraged to play multiple characters."

The 'upgrade' didn't really address the core issue. Issue being the fact that the very existance of the HoM, as an extension of the KOABD title, ties players to a single character for the duration of the title.

I understand that there are several alternatives to the terrible 3 titles (Drunk/Sweet/Party,) but with GW2 looming, it seems less and less likely that titles such as Seeker of Lux/Kurz/Wisdom/Treasure Hunter/Lucky/Unlucky/All PvP titles can be completed by anyone that hasn't been less than 2 years.

LDoA and Leg. Survivor at the same time is huge no-go,

jackinthe · Jun 03, 2010, 06:24 AM // 06:24

alehound is already unnecessary.

Elnino · Jun 03, 2010, 06:28 AM // 06:28

Once you put those titles in your HoM, it becomes an account-wide title

So . . . /notsigned

Songbringer · Jun 03, 2010, 06:44 AM // 06:44

uh notsigned. My ele doesn't have survivor or ldoa and I will get it easily. So no 1 should need it.

I've suggested something similar 2 years ago.

I think you misunderstood the suggestion.

You're not going to be able to get them both with the same character anyway. Rules for each individual title would still apply, you'll just get 1 point toward GWAMM from your LS character, and 1 from your LDoA character.

OP is suggesting GWAMM to become an account wide container-title for unique titles of all characters in the account. Each character will retain his/her own titles, but contribute toward the account-wide KoaBD counter.

So, say, you play 4 characters in your account:

- You love Character A and play it so much. You get Legendary Guardian (x7), Legendary Vanquisher (x3) and Legendary Cartographer (x3)
- You get Legendary Survivor with Character B (x1)
- You also have Character C with LDoA (x1)
- You have Character D that has both Holy Lightbringer and Legendary Spearmarshal (x2)

So, the account-wide title counts for (7+3+3)+(1)+(1)+(2)=17, your account has attained r3 in the KoaBD title, I'm very Important, and you can display it with each character.

How's that a bad idea?

Yesterday i finaly finished 35 maxed titles on my main (without surv or LDOA !).

So with your suggestion, all of my 13 caracters will get GWAMM without playing ! And just after their creation ? what about pvp carac ?

Lol gwamm with pvp or pve caracters, 1 minute after birth xD

what about the people who already have 2 or more GWAMM's - having actually put in the effort?

If they keep making titles easier they might as well just give them out at character creation.

Mintha Syl · Jun 03, 2010, 07:35 AM // 07:35

Since as far as I know GWAMM gives no benefit other than showing off, apart from HoM which you can already set account-wise I really see no reason to make it account-wide.

I understand you're suggesting it so that people doesn't focus on a single char, but to me it looks like making it for account changes its meaning. I see it as "this char has done really a lot of things" not as "as a player I did a lot of things so even my newly borned pre-searing chars can have it/contribute to it".

/agreed and signed

This is the best suggestion for the KoaBD title so far.

Horace Slughorn · Jun 03, 2010, 08:27 AM // 08:27

terrible idea, that im sure has been suggested already

Nerel · Jun 03, 2010, 08:42 AM // 08:42

No Legendary survivor or LDoA, none of the three consumable titles (Party, Sweet Tooth or Drunkard) and I didn't even bother with Legendary Master of the North... GWAMM with one title spare... (She's my littlest GWAMM).

It's relatively easy to attain GWAMM if you know what you're doing. You have a fair amount of leeway when it comes to avoiding particularly annoying titles too. The only problem is the time spent grinding aspect. This idea should have been the original implementation, especially if the HoM transfers accomplishments based on account. However, after so many people have grinded through titles on a single character, the game is far too gone for such a drastic change to the title. Perhaps if it were originally implemented like this, we would be better off today.

/notsigned if you didn't catch it.

Each character will still retain each individual accomplishment per-character. So the effort is not wasted anyway...

Masmar · Jun 03, 2010, 09:28 AM // 09:28

You can still max all the different titles on seperate characters, and then once you put them in your hall they will all be registered completed. The only thing you'll miss out on is a flashy title
