Not to mention it's incredibly piss-poor in difficulty for the most part.

True that PvE got a lot of stuffs, complete the most of it and become a "God".

PvP got their Commander, Gladiator, Zaishen, Hero and Champion tracks which is kinda more than enough actually.

There are a few players that have maxed all PvE titles, but out of all PvP players there's just one who've maxed Hero.
I mean, not a single player have maxed two (or maybe three, not sure of this fact) of the PvP titles and still you complain that PvE guys gets to much of the game?

Mechanics are already there in the Form elite skills.

Don't think that would work.
I mean, what about dervish, they worship 5 gods xD

The professions worship too many gods, that's it =/

You can buy your way to Zaishen and just click on a box 50 times, you know. You don't necesarily have to get yourself into PvP to do it.

By the way, you realise that those titles are not giving you benefits, and they are very very little compared to roughly 37 title.

Wait, when was PvP supposed to be about grinding?

All of the PvE titles are grind.

PS: The only title that deserves any kind of merit is Champion, and even that's debatable. The feeling of accomplishment and words under your name saying you've done it should be by far enough.

And there is the ultimate truth.

Stop whining about PvE needing more rewards, you have enough already. My dog can get GWAMM if I leave him next to the computer long enough. Does this make him worthy of a shiny new aura?

phan · Sep 29, 2008, 06:20 PM // 18:20

Why give a reward for a title that more people have than r1 gladiator ?

.. beats me x)

(S)he can but probably you can't.

gargytama · Sep 29, 2008, 06:45 PM // 18:45

True Tyla, the Zaishen title can be bought (for 100mil gold though), but when did I say that PvP was grinding? O.o
Not that I really think anyone will max the Champion title ever, but sure if you think so..

Phan, what do you mean?
Do you mean that there are more ppl who've got GWAMM than gladiator r1 or the opposite?

Romeus, if your dog would get GWAMM I'd spam this forum to give him a GameMaster account with a new expansion named after him with an aura for him only xD

Also a good idea.

The title system, weather one likes it or not, has been popular. To reach the top tier does require some serious grinding but also requires some very real skill

Zchest was claerly intended for PvE....

And I definately want to see people running around with an orange aura just leaving people starstruck in their wake, would be so cool.

Hokage Goes Glompage · Sep 29, 2008, 07:27 PM // 19:27

I totally disagree with this suggestion.

For one reason even though i saw alot of people saying this that PvE does have enough as it is, they have many things and also some of the titles in PvE are a joke to get.
And the people saying about the PvP titles being stupid, well your the stupid one because in PvP you actually have to work your ass off to get at least up acouple of ranks while in PvE some of the titles can take 1-5 days to max which is enough.

And also incase you guys haven't noticed you totally forgot about the Hall of Monuments that you get for your KoaBD title. Not only does it do stuff for you Hall Of Monuments, it also passes through to your GW2 account if you get and you get more as a reward for gaining that title in GW2 if you get r6 KoaBD.
And also Sharkman you are a idiot if you think that zchest was intended for PvE

overwise how do you thing that you get z keys if you get TRP or Bal Faction to a NPC ... hmmmmmm?

The most i would say is a emote not a bloodly shining aura for your character

So stop moaning that you PvE'ers don't get enough sometimes because you have got alot

gargytama · Sep 29, 2008, 07:45 PM // 19:45

Well then Hokage, if the most of the PvE titles takes 1-5 days to get to max I guess you mean it would take you like 2 months to get Koabd r4?

Go all in for PvE then for 6 months and max all titles!
You'll have your Hall of Monuments complete, a "Bloodly" shining aura, a nice text under you that says "God Walking Amongst Mere Mortals" and ofc, 3 and a half year left to max the Hero title track :O

I mean, you say we have so much to do but what we've really done is the same thing since Nightfall!
The only thing that's diffrent since proph is Point Farming, Vanquishing, eating and drinking which is a "whole lot".

PvP had GvG, Tombs (now HA), RA/TA in proph.
Now they also got AB, HB, ZA and ZE, a couple of new ways to play PvP..

"Killing" other players in a game don't make you a "God".
Getting all achievements in a game does imo make you a "God".

Actually, ive seen no whining at all.
All i see is a suggestion and someone who is trying to provoke some other people.

Div · Sep 30, 2008, 06:46 AM // 06:46

I thought my amazing title spoke for itself. I'm not some insecure 12 year old that needs an aura on top of my awesome e-accomplishment. I'm 13!

That's besides the point. It is still buyable.

As for grinding, people don't play PvP for hours on end to max a friggin' title.

I'm not half-arsed about people maxing PvP titles. When you get there, cool. You made a pretty huge achievement on getting to the last rank. But that's still not the prime point of PvP at all.

pumpkin pie · Sep 30, 2008, 06:52 AM // 06:52

everything is buyable in Guild Wars, if you want to say that something thats is buyable = not worthy of an emote, then nothing is worthy of an emote, because in Guild Wars you can buy everything. (title wise) probably can't buy LDoA title. but thats a stupid death level eeeeeeewwwwwwnesss.

That isn't my point.

My point is that the Zaishen title isn't purely PvP-based and is obtainable by means of PvE, and then all you need to do is click a chest a shit load of times.

Sure, you can buy your way through PvP-based titles, but you still have to put some slight effort in. The HH W/Mo who ran you through Sanctum Cay isn't going to get you your fame.

In PvE, it's even easier. I just slap Barrage on my bar or something incredibly easy to run and find mobs that will further increase my titles while watching Black Books. And I'm not including any running here. You don't need to make a contribution to runners except for money, too.

cataphract · Sep 30, 2008, 07:15 AM // 07:15

Reaching GWAMM was totally anticlimactic. No fireworks, no confetti, no naked virgins, no gods to greet me, nothing spectacular. I mean, if you're a God and you're walking amongst mere mortals, shouldn't you have some cool powers? Why stop at the shiny aura? Why not give GWAMMs the same skill Gwen used to burn Ascalon down? And a "Hundred White Doves" skill for those who do not wish to be a destructive deity. Let players choose what "godly" skill they want and make it available once per week.

The mechanics are here. The people are here. Gogogogogo!

But let it begin with a small effect at Kind of a Big Deal and gradually increase with each rank of the title. In that way it is reachable for more players.

I already have to put up with people who think their amazingly expensive and hideous ensemble is a substitute for demonstrated competency. You know who I'm talking about: those people who pop a rank instead of pinging their build. A shiny that can only be obtained by combined grinding and wealth would just be more fuel for the obnoxious fire.

ANet screwed up by choosing the "god walking amongst mere mortals" line for the capstone in their Ron Burgundy title series. They should have gone with "That's How I Roll" or "I Love Lamp" instead. Then we wouldn't have people asking for god auras when a mustache would be more in the spirit of the title.

romeus petrus · Sep 30, 2008, 03:57 PM // 15:57

Face it, PvE title grinding requires no skill other than time and dedication. I've seen people with the IQ of a plant walking around with GWAMM's. To suggest that they should get the most spectacular title reward in the game is nothing short of laughable.

But you max it with a lot of grind titles. Grind titles don't show merit, they show time.

If they added an adventurer title (quests) and a Master title (all achievement titles of a region) and their legendaries (Legendary master would include also Eye of the North master)
Then we'll have 28 achievement titles. Add two achievement titles more and separate GWAMM into two titles: one for achievement titles and one for grind titles, and I would agree to give that visual effect to the achievement titles.

I agree with this one.
Most of the titles are grind titles or pay titles nothing that anyone actually had to work for.
