Why add another no skill title? Isnt god walking alrdy easy enough to get? There would be 2 ways to make this title very stupid, either you make it so that the oldschool players are like halfway through it or you make it so that the new players can max it too. Considering that a net is making gw retard noob friendly they'd got with option b and all the oldschool players would alrdy have maxed it. his title is pointless like a xp, death, time played...

This title has some problems but lets say in RA you get a noobish group that wins once... twice... those wins dont have any meaning.

So i think there should be a title like this but you dont get any benefits from it. Its just a title to show how much Balthazar faction you have and nothing more (and not getting a +5k to max faction cap).

Amount of balth faction wont show anything either.
you can get 2k per day on Z-Challenge and 6k per day on Z-Elite by trapping with heros.
So you can still have someone with alot of balth and no skill.

Even the other PVP titles are focused upon one area (Gladiator - Arenas, Commander - HB, Champion - GVG, Hero - HA, Kurz/Luxon - AB). Balth faction title is simply saying im good at pvp. There isnt a pve version of that, and it serves no purpose as my previous post states.



You can, the purpose of all titles is to show that you are good at something. A title that says im good in general is retarded, especially when it is one which is so easy to get.


When "buying" fame, you gain balth faction (theres bought)

When botting RA etc you gain balth faction

When leeching AB you get balth faction (assuming you dont get reported)

When doing Zaishen you get balth faction (can bot/buy that and its bloody easy) [I know someone said DONT include that coz someone will complain or something like that, but unfortunately IF anet implemented this title they wouldn't be able to seperate zaishen faction from other, just as they cant make all titles retroactive.

Also theres the Flames of Balthazar (i think thats them) they give 1k balth faction, and can be bought.

Finally, when people buy accounts, they naturally inherit all the balthazar faction already on the account, along with the fame, glad points, champ points, commander points, and lux/kurz rep. The whole argument for this title is flawed, and involves more time wasting from Anet.

The only reason I can see for putting up this title is for people who arent good enough to succeed in HA, GVG, RA enough to achieve ranks in those titles, because atleast by trying you get balth faction. This would rapidly become less respected then the "fame farmers" discussed earlier.
And you can't grind/bot PvE titles too? And you can't inherit PvE titles from a bought account also? PvP has very few titles, less than six infact. PvE has many , 10+ or so titles, and yet they complain how they can't seem to get PvP titles. Look, you guys got more than fifteen, and we only got 5 (6 if you count AB). I suggest all the PvE nubs start looking in the shoes of PvP players. When someone comes up with a good title for PvE, all the PvE nubs are like, OMG /signed. When it comes to PvP titles, it's those same nubs that go /notsigned.

Titles are not an indication of skill, they are an indication that you have lots of time on your hands. I think that this one is no worse than any of the others.

/signed

Also make Chaos Gloves available in Pre-Searing.

Again the statement must be made.

WTB Z-Keys, 5k.

Stop trying to intertwine the suggested title and the Z-Key title.

As long as this has no max, or a max in the 100 millions, and no emote or anything, I'm all for it.

I nearly spit my beer at luminaris saying hfff was work. you are sitting there letting someone else do the work. It even outlines this jack-off exploit in the friggin wiki. Sorry, but last I heard, work required effort. It makes me wonder what you do for a living.

At least with this title, you were doing something to earn it, thanks to the ease of reporting leechers, etc; and not just paying someone per run to hit up the faction. As has been said many times before(though some seem to have slective sight to see it) you can eliminate the z-keys and flame from the equation, so please stop that retarded argument. Learn to read posts.

I think you missed Tyla point by a few miles, He's wanting to know if anyone has ever gotten 1 mill balt faction by ONLY doing the Zaishen/Zaishen Elite.

@ Clarissa F

Areed, I guess he counts logging in as "effort" but then he prolly auto logs too. And I'm glad you said "almost" spit your beer out, he's not a person to waste good, or bad beer on.

it's still fed by the balth faction
the whole zkey thing is stupid
they'd better focus on other things before they come up with another stupid title with emotes that encourage unsportive behaviour
