Cool Make Lightbringer a Passive Title

its a minor suggestion... i want to display the titles that look coolest not the one that i need to use in certain areas. the whole point of titles is to show-off what you have done.

How many drunkards have you seen in gate of madness?

i also forget sometimes when traveling from place to place to turn the thing on or turn it off -- as Lightbringer is not an impressive title to show...

(yes... I searched for similar topics and found nothing)

I REALLY hope the GWEN faction titles don't work like that. Its annoying to choose between not showing off your cool title, or trying to turn it on and off all the time.

How many titles have you seen people displaying while in explorable zones?

Eh, why exactly cant you display your drunkard title in Gate of Madness? Unless you are mobbed by Margonites there I highly doubt you need to have LB on inside an outpost.

Try hitting H and selecting a different title, I bet it'll work just fine with no adverse effect in ANY town or outpost.

Oh, now I get it, you're simply too lazy to make 2 clicks and for that you want the devs to spend their valuable time..right, I'm sure they'll be falling over themselves to make this one happen.

While its not really much of a hassle to press 2 buttons to display a different title there is really no reason that I should HAVE to even press these 2 buttons to begin with. If it ultimately doesn't make a difference like most of the people who are apposed are saying then why not just have the beneficial side effect of the damage reduction w/o HAVING to display a title that is less impressive and shows less accomplishment than another preferred title?

It's just not necessary. You don't need to have Kurzick on for Kurzick skills, or Sunspear on for Sunspear skills. So why do we for Lightbringer?

I would like to see the effects of Lightbringer when I have my Kind of a Big Deal title on, especially because the LB is part of my KoaBD.

I don't mind changing the titles.

More than once I were killing stuff without the title active, and found not many differences... then I activated it and I noticed them. XD.

Althought, it would be just easier just to make the title activate automatically when entering Nightfall areas, I like activating it by myself.

I agree. I think this would be better than having it permanently on.
Otherwise /notsigned, You have to make the decision do I want to show everyone that I'm a Legendary Cartographer or do I want a few extra percentage points dmg.

Better yet, do away with the whole LB title damage reduction/boost and simply make the mobs do less damage and have lower armor/max hp.

Imagine you make a build bases in damage reversal, being able to disable the title will be better for that build.

Armor ignoring damage like holy damage is not affected by the bonus, isn't it?

(Lightbringer signet is an exception)

/signed, not because I'm too lazy to hit H and do some clicking, but simply out of preference. While I have a couple maxed by this point and plan to do more in the interests of favor, I don't often put titles on my characters because they (the titles) annoy me. I prefer not to wear them, and I definitely don't like that one is sometimes mandatory.

I hate it when I'm trying to get at a popular NPC like a merchant/storage and everytime I try to mouseover the bastich, some idiot and their Sunspear Commander (6) pushes what I'm trying to click out of the way. Alt helps, but sometimes you still end up targetting the wrong character.

Why? Because if you go out into an explorable area and then notice you forgot to put on your title, you can just put it on then. I've done that plenty of times.

Also, how often does the title really make a difference? I once did several RoT quests on my necro, only to later realize that I had forgot to put on my title.

I'm siding with everyone who says to just swap titles.

I mean really - just display your fun title in town, swap to the LB once in mission. It's not like you can't swap in instance.
