Party Animal : Make it account wide

Drunkard : Make it account wide and works similar to sweets/party consumables

Sweettooth : Make it account wide

Without any limitation of which character we have, we can;

1. Elimination of ale drinking afk botters (applies to making it work like sweets/fireworks).

2. Let's everyone (friends and strangers alike) be able to form profession themed dance formation etc. easily without hesitation of their title grinding character not being that profession.

3. Let us be able to form faster running themed congo lines in festivals and celebrations wit greater ease.

4. Form themed burp parties with greater ease.

5. Even pre-sear towns can be livelier with these changes during festivals

These 3 types of consumables are designed with entertaining properties. Thus let us have the freedom to enjoy using them rather than get bored using them only while on certain character(s).

Making it account wide won't stop players from continuing to use them for their benefits/entertainment especially when we'll get some per festival event anyway.

They wont change the drunk effect to make it like sweet tooth/consumable.

they were designed as a goldsinks not entertainment lol, and as for ppl stopping using them, they wil, becuz the title becomes 100% easier to get due to not having to do it with 1 character.

also please use the search fuction there is a drunkard/sweet/party thread nearly EVERY WEEK!

/notsigned for obviously weekly reason, and nothing is worth adding to gw1 anymore.

Sweet and Party are already easy to max plus your HoM is already account wide. Only argument I can agree with is make drunard account wide.

And these are real reasons why A-net should bother doing this?

my opinion is because it does nothing beneficial to the game nor will it atract players.

It's just stupid you have to work on this title for every character, even when you have several you don't main with how are you supposed to get the drunk track?

/not signed.
1. It has been suggested before, and when A-Net did the title re-balance back in November, they did look at making them account-wide and decided against it.

2. Getting those titles on a character isn't that difficult. It just takes time farming up the resources for them.

3. Getting drunkard isn't that time consuming IF you use your time wisely. I got it on my main simply by being drunk while in town selling my loot / buying more battle commendations to get more booze.

Not every character wants to be an alchoholic, party animal, or have rotten teeth, and to say you HAVE to work on this on all your characters is absurd.

PLUS, you dont have to do anything to get these titles, just use the items and kill time(trading, any pve) so there is absolutly no reason to have these titles acct wide. 10,000minutes is only 116hrs roughly, or only 7 days straight, its not that hard to get if you actualy play the game while using the items(plenty of skills benefit from alchohol, sweets have buffs). they have given you benefits to using them while playing so dooooo it.

ooh and please drink responsibly. last time i saw a drunk character he nearly crashed his rollerbeetle into the crowd stands!

Sotec The Brave · Jul 13, 2009, 12:12 AM // 00:12

I just drink the alcohol while doing vanquises and missions and i have gotten quite a bit of time with little effort

IronSheik · Jul 13, 2009, 12:16 AM // 00:16

Your reasons are stupid, the only real one is because it forces us to use them all on one character, only drunk/Sweets should be account wide, party doesn't matter since they are for show.

Having to consume drunk/sweets on one character that I already did everything on is a little moot.

**Marty Silverblade** · Jul 13, 2009, 08:32 AM // 08:32

I'll /sign, just because I don't see the point in having to do them over again for each character. If you spend 1000k+ or however much it is, and it has no particular significance to the character you are working on, there isn't any good reason that I can think of to oppose them being account-wide.

Fifty percent of the updates just waved at you...

Oh and /signed. I don't see why Wisdom, Treasure Hunter and Lucky should be account based and Drunkard, Sweet Tooth and Party Animal shouldn't.

LoL because you are blind. Those titles HAVE effects (% salvage and % retain locks ), gold-sink titles dont . Why should you have access to those titles that have no effect ig ? ah yeah .... GWAMM greed . Nah

MithranArkanere · Jul 13, 2009, 01:41 PM // 13:41

Wisdom, Trasure and Luck have effects. Unlucky goes with lucky.
Drunkard, Sweet Tooth and Party Animal have no effects.

They are just gold/time sinks. A way to pay or spend time towards a title.

It just doesn't matter. I'd rather bother more about changing Drunkenness mechanics so it is less a bother to achieve.

Enon · Jul 13, 2009, 01:42 PM // 13:42

If anything, Wisdom, Treasure Hunter and Lucky SHOULD be character based because of the effects.

OMG, you know you are tearing holes in the space-time continuum with such proclamations?

Enon · Jul 13, 2009, 03:22 PM // 15:22

Sorry, just my opinion.

Since Wisdom, Treasure Hunter and Lucky are more useful, it's only logical to restrict them to characters.

That's what people also said when we discussed making Wisdom, Treasure Hunter and Lucky account based :-)

This is completely and absolutely pointless. The reason bots exist is because people are not willing to put in the effort. So you're just saying to eliminate that which prompts them to bot, and make it that much easier. The sake of eliminating the "need" to bot will just appease those that sought it as a solution, therefore not really correcting the "lack of ethics." Getting rid of bots only for the sake of getting rid of them is kind of pointless, since no advantage is lost =P.

That being said, I like the idea of it being account-wide, not necessarily for the silly reasons you listed, though. Although I am GWAMM, when I was still going for the title, I completely avoided using consumables on other characters, even though they might aid me, because I didn't want to "waste my supply."
