Just so you know, I did the inc ale hound title without the glitch or an autoclicker. I sat around on the laptop while watching certain TV shows or a baseball game, clicking every minute (or preferably every 3 minutes). Was it a pain, yes of course it was but so are most of the max titles in one way or another...

Treasue / Wisdom are definite candidates for becoming account wide.

Other than that, lets see how monumets work before suggesting title changes.

With some luck there will be no monument for drunk man or fat man titles and they can stay as pointless as they are now.

It wouldnt hurt anyone really, is there anyone who has 2 max wisdom or treasure titles on different characters? I dont think so.

Agreed on the first part, undecided on the second.

I had one of each profession and they all had their elites, now for the title i have to get them all on a single char .. feels weird.

In fact it made me abandon all but one char, especially since GW2 seems to be geared to playing just one char as well.

Are we going the route of WOW and Everquest with that?
I sure hope not because i left those games in favor of GW for many reasons.

Except that by getting max drunkard on an account-based title you would be spending just as much and getting bored just as much as a person doing it with a single char. The change would simply help accomodate two different playstyles (one main character vs. many different characters).

As for skill hunter, I'd rather keep it char-based because it has a requirement of its own that goes beyond just capping the skills: in order to get a skill hunter title, you need to spend a LOT of skill points. it means people who already have it maxed have it on a char that needed to get a gazillion experience points just to get that title alone. So it'd be kinda unfair to let people with many chars to just add up the elites from their different chars, since if you play with many chars you know that each char always has a lot of surplus unused skill points if you don't go skill-hunting with that particular char.

A friend of mine did it, just standing in the guild hall, wildy supported by guildies, though.

I'd be very happy if the Wisdom title became account wide. Let's face it everyone except the village idiot who's going for this title saves up all his rares in storage to be IDed by a single character. Pointless and annoying.

By the way, the max drunkard title has a very ironic ring to it: the minute I reached 'Incorrigable Ale-hound', I stopped drinking, cold turkey, just like that. I'll never touch another ale again. They should rename it to 'Recovering Alcoholic' or 'Liver Transplant Survivor'.

Solas · Aug 23, 2007, 11:23 AM // 11:23

yeah,wisdom and treasure hunter should be account wide,alot easier+ they get the bonus

skill hunter, thats the point to cap ALL the skills on 1 char,

drunkard should stay the same,imo, its long and lonly, like being drunk

haha. true. never thought about it that way. Still, there's going to be at least one skill in GWEN in which you have a bonus while drunk, so don't give up on the booze just yet.

Agree on Wisdom and Treasure Hunter. They hurt normal play now as they are. The rest of the titles I could care less about how they work, but these two definitely should be account based.

william1975 · Aug 23, 2007, 11:54 AM // 11:54

I don't mind how it is set up at the moment, however thats not to say I wouldn't appreciate a change.

With regard to Wisdom and Treasure Hunter I would prefer to have them account based for the reasons stated already, waste of time tryign on multiple characters and innability to use lockpicks/keys on others if you hunt with one character. I do however understand the reality based issue here that its character based seeing as how that particualr character is doign the ID and opening the chest.

With regards to Skills I think its fine at the moment. with drunkard and swetttoth i think they should also be character based, though i would like to see drunkard changed to the same method of aquiring points as sweetooth

I agree that wisdom title and treasure should be account-based title but other skills like drunkard or skill hunter should be the same.

Veggente · Aug 23, 2007, 12:05 PM // 12:05

I agree to broke the only "hard-to-get" titles *sarcastic*
You don't need to have all the titles on all the chars, some titles request more time to be completed and it is the only thing that let them be real unique titles. Let treasure and wisdom titles become easier and you will destroy the only titles that have a sense >< (survivor is broken because of guild-hall exploit, skill-hunter is broken - buyable - because of tomes, etc).

@ For the one that proposed to do treasure hunter account-wide and double the chest needed - NC

It seem that the "I can't get it, let it become easier" is becoming the new attitude here...Some days ago I saw someone even asking to reduce to 5k the max rank of those titles^^

Guild hall exploit? From pre? What does that have to do with survivor?
Skill hunter is NOT broken. You can only buy 1/10th of the elites that way. A mesmer can NOT and I repeat NOT use any elite tomes except MESMER tomes. It makes the title SLIGHTLY easier but that's all.

I'm sorry, has ANYONE posted that they cannot get it? Again, no one here is asking to lower the ranks. Drunkard, in everyone's opinion, is too MINDLESSLY time-consuming, there's no skill in clicking in one spot for hours and hours. Making wisdom/title tracks account wide makes it only slightly easier, and slightly less time-consuming because we won't have to switch characters which isn't ruining anyone's fun. How it is now, it IS not nearly as fun because I can't let anyone but my warrior open chests. I get a nice gold drop farming on my sin, and guess what: I can't ID it now. I have to wait.

Hang on a sec, unless I'm misunderstanding the point (it's late

), I thought any character can use any tome (elite or not).
