As pointed out by, e.g., Holymasamune, the rank emote is a vestigial mechanism from olden days when men were real men and women were runaway supermodels ... erm, anyway, it was meant to provide a rudimentary system of discrimination^H^H^H^H^H facilitation for creating a random PvP party. With the introduction of titles the same can now be done with even more elitism^H^H^H^H^H finesse, so it's completely unnecessary to extend the obsolete mechanism. If you want special emotes so badly, go do some HA (not being a HA player myself I'm perfectly content with my bambi that came as a side effect of the one time habit of our guild to do some warm-ups in HA before serious PvP, so the only time I've been in a team winning halls it was a GvG build we run

).

That said, I wouldn't mind an exclusive e-peen aura/emote for r6 KoaBD (and r6 only), it's not that common as to become a spamming nuisance (and high end GvG'ers got their own special reward in those extra frills for the cape as well).

If PvP get rewarded with getting fame and emotes... which they spam all over why can't PvE people who dedicate time to titles also be able to use an emote to show where they got to? However should be only R4 and above.... at least have 20 titles before hand. Not everyone will have R4 and above and so wont be seeing them all over.

PvP got pve armor and weapons opened to them.
PvE should get the same back at us with Emotes.

Give and take,But it wont happen.

Fixed this one for you. Btw, its really easy to get 10-15 max titles.. Getting like r9 is much harder.

Why should pvper's just have recognition? So getting titles are a grind and
don't need skill? isn't going into HoH over and over a grind? How about the
few of us that have done both..i'm no stranger to AB's as much as I'm
no stranger to doing missions. I've spend time and effort getting my maxed
titles. Just as the Pvper 's have their emotes to show to their side of the game
how wonderful they are why cant us pve'ers have the same to show to ours???
And as far as it goes pvp and pve are two sides of the same coin and both require skill...however that 'skill' is termed.

In a way it is, because you use the same maps over and over, but there are infinite different possible build combinations that offer for infinite possibilities of enemies, and how to beat them. Also, you're enemies aren't controlled by AI which is easily defeated, they can actually reason for themselves.

To say you know PvP because you've AB'd before is kind of ludicrous. AB =/= HA. Although you probably have done HA before, I would venture a guess you are no higher than r3.

Because "your" part of the game is incredibly repetitive, and takes little to no actual skill. Any 10 year old can beat a campaign, but no 10 year old could make r12 hero.

lol, fools...

and how should players reach than the highest grade, when it should start at 20 titles please ?

When it looks like this:

20 > Deer
25 > Wolf
30 > Tiger

Title then maxed ...

how should we reach then please Phoenix and R15 whatever it will be ???

To compensate this, it would have to look like this then:

20 > Deer
22 > Wolf
25 > Tiger
27 > Phoenix
30 > ???.

Nah, it has when to start then at People know Me, so 10 Max Titles to let the whole thing work good.

10 > Deer
15 > Wolf
20 > Tiger
25 > Phoenix
30 > ???

To make it harder, each of these ranks would have additional Requirements, which would be combined...

R1 Emote:
- All 3 Campaigns played through in NM
- Have 1 Set of an Elite Armor put into HoM
- All Dungeons mastered in EotN in NM

R2 Emote:
- All 3 Campaigns played through in HM
- Have 3 Sets of Elite Armors put into HoM
- Explored all 3 Campaigns 100%

R3
- All 3 Campaigns vanguished
- Learn all Elite Skills of all 3 Campaigns
- All Dungeons mastered in EotN in HM

R4
- Have all 11 Destroyer Weapons put on the HoM
- Have 25+ Minipets on your HoM
- Have all Heroes equipped with Elite Armor

R5
- Have all Elite armors of your Class on your HoM including FoW
- Have all Reputation Titles & Master of the North maxed
- Be a Legendary Survivor

R6
- Master all Elite-Areas (UW,FoW,Urgoz,Deep,DoA,SF)
- Become Savior of both Factions
- Reach with your Character 10000000 Balthazar Points

so, or anything similar, that puts the emotes with some conditions, that must be reached first, before the player will become able to use the fitting Emote to the amount of maxed titles (just an example list) with those conditions counting first, when the player also has reached the fitting amount of maxed titles.

means, you could become saviour of both factions, have all elite areas done and have 10 M balthazar Points, unless you have not the 30 max titles before, you won't be able to see the emote of R6, but only that one, where you have fulfilled all condiotions and have enough maxed titles for ...

If they ever did this (they won't), they'd have to design entirely new animations than what the current /rank uses.

Gladiator title is next in line for an emote

wick · Mar 15, 2008, 02:18 AM // 02:18

PvP'ers get emote for their Hero titles as well as the title itself. They also get champ title. I think these titles should have some sort of emote / stand out glow or something to the character for achieving the 'r9 pvp level' of PvE.

/notsigned (again)

Like I said: Remove all the emotes.

PvE (KOABD) is a cakewalk. (skill wise, not grind wise)

HA isnt as bad as pve, but its still easy. (Although imho with all the rank judging and elitism that goes on there, its worse than pve in many ways).

Either way, no emotes.

Azrael Blackthorne · Mar 15, 2008, 03:22 AM // 03:22

/notsigned for the 3rd time for pure delight at hating you all

all you people seem to think is this

"PvPers have emotes, WHY NOT US?!?!?!"

pvpers didnt ask for emotes anet gave them a way to show there rank, simple as that

"PvPers dont work for it, we do!!!"

no, you don't, ill admit, r3 isnt hard to get, who cares? no one takes the bambi emote seriously anyway, but neither is it hard to get r1-2 of the KoaBD title track, i know this because iv done it, i got People Know Me in 3 weeks, henching all of it accept about 10 HM missions, i got all protector, all guardian, Legendary Guardian, SS, LB and Norn. i used 0 skill accept maybe my amazing "im not a moron" skills.

"PVP HAS ONE ITS NOT FAIR"

no, its not, but honestly, is all you people think about finding new ways to flex your e-peens and belittle people who aren't as "LEET" as you?, thats the only reason i can see why you want emotes, you've got the title, why do you want to advertise it with a big flashy emote, and be the person that people hate because all you do is spam your "Leetness" every chance you get? when you can be the subtle person with the title who people take seriously when you say what build they should use for a mission?

i say be happy with the fact you have a title and any reward at all for your efforts rather than biting the hand that feeds on every possible occasion. Anet gave you what they saw was what the game needed, what your asking for is what you seem to think you deserve when you already HAVE what you deserve:

AN AWESOME GAME WITH NO SUBSCRIPTION FEE AND MORE CONTENT THAN YOU CAN SHAKE A STICK AT

iv said it before and ill say it again, the only reason you want this is because you've already got a taste, you don't just want a cookie you want the entire jar

attitude.
