Curse

I think this topic needs to be brought to issue here. When you played for a few years and finally reach that title of Savior, shouldn't there be a few things aside from a monument to go with your achievement?

I've only had a few ideas on this so far. One area I'm debating on is having full access to all alliance based towns and outposts, regardless of current guild ownership. Anyone who has truly devoted their time and duty should be recognized for their service and be given at least some measure of seniority in these areas whether it's by reward or unlimited access (which I fear could be abusable

) Secondly, why not have things that can only be accessible like specific weapons skins or custom cape with trim?

Don't bother with signed/notsigned here, I want to see what some of you can come up with.

Trims= Has been and should stay with high-ranking guilds
Weapons= QQfest for sure.

you want more leechers in JQ/FA?

if you can get acces to weapons (that are sellable) people will leech even more

so..... anything else?

This title takes a few months to get with the current DSC and MQSC runs. I did it in about 3 months doing about 2 hours a day sometimes more, usually less.

If you want access to the special areas join a guild that owns a town, they area always recruiting and the minimum daily faction donation take <20 min to get.

Stop rewarding mindless grind.

I have played for two weekends and went from 3M to max.

Anyway, there is already a bonus for maxing the title. The Kurzick and Luxon Skills at maximum rank.

This.

That's the point of grinding for a title: you get the title. That's the reward.

Icy The Mage · Jun 01, 2009, 01:24 PM // 13:24

The PvE skill bonuses, the maxed account-wide title. I dunno, it's a pretty easy title to get now and can be obtained in a couple of weekend if you really try hard (especially these last ones).

Cape trims are given to people who have done good in GvG tournaments; not "who can leech the longest without getting banned" or "Earning 10 million faction in 2 weekends".

The weapons are just a whole other story, having exclusive content for someone that has grinded to get it - is not a good thing to do. Although if they were salable, then at least all the people that had max Kurzick or Luxon (which, trust me, there are a lot of them), would practically give them out to others.

While I respect you having worked for it over however long it took you, its just too easy now to max out the titles with MQ/DTSC.

If one were to set his mind to it, he could go from 0 faction donated to 10m donated in something like 10 days, MQSCing with good groups for 5 hours a day.

Eragon Zarroc · Jun 01, 2009, 01:34 PM // 13:34

maybe before when the title meant something, but not now. not after two double weekends in a row and the ease with which u can gain faction by doing speed clears. and the only feasible suggestion is the access to discounted merchants. cape trims and weapons, NO!

At first I was like:
Hell, no girlfriend!

And then I read this:

And I liked it!

Maybe even stuff like the merch talking to you regardless on which faction owns the area atm.
Fix all the stupid crap that was introduced into the game with the division and tie the fix to a rank in the title - preferably rank 1.

I'm in a guild who owns a town and it feels really nice to have that privilege lol. I don't mind getting the cheaper merchant ID or salvage kits for others but if you take that away, what's really left? E-peen? There should be an inherent benefit for those who own the towns and besides, people can leech to max title. I don't like when people leech for a benefit. It's one thing to have a couple words and a title added, but a word and a function? No thank you.

Kook~NBK~ · Jun 01, 2009, 02:53 PM // 14:53

/not signed. The reward of having an account wide title with the benefit of max power on some powerful PvE skills is enough.

It takes a lot of work for guilds to gain control of towns - recruiting & keeping members, farming the faction, dealing with all the issues (drama, etc.) that arise from having a large number of people, maintaining web sites & forums (I assume the larger guilds have those), etc. - they deserve the privledge of discount merchants & stuff.

So the current Kurzick/Luxon skills aren't a benefit (especially at high rank)?
And having an account wide max title isn't one either?

Mist :) · Jun 01, 2009, 04:07 PM // 16:07

Save yourselves.
4..6 seconds.
6 seconds at max, two more than at rank 1.
so for three months grind you get 2 seconds on a skill.
Should make it worth maxing imo.

the actual displayable rank + skill strength increase is the reward for mindnumbing grind.

Unknown Duli · Jun 01, 2009, 05:38 PM // 17:38

/not signed... its way too easy of a title to max

max pve skills (some of them rock)
a maxed title (or 2)

why more???

pretty soon there will be a thread for max treasure hunter asking for chests to pop open all by themselves when u walk by......

Expherious · Jun 01, 2009, 05:40 PM // 17:40

Kurz n Lux skills end of discussion.

With the way today's groups are able to farm faction, it's not likely that you'll need years to max it. As for the rewards, getting weapons, cape trims, or other exclusive things like that are a no-no. I would, however, not have a problem if Saviors were able to have free access to their respective allegiance's elite area.
