Quite possible actually. There is not DP in pre-searing (so that restriction won't count there) and your average Defender of Ascalon has around 100.000 deaths.

Would be a funny title anyways, but needs work.

Maybe too low, need feedback from more players and the amounts of deaths they have. Personally after 1000+ hours playing on my necro i still have less that what is needed to obtain R1. If anything if you have 34k deaths i would say you deserve an Emo title.

about AFK leveling concering [ii]this[/i] title, perhaps a afk detection script that would boot people out of the game or into the last main city visited after X deaths with ZERO keybord input (does such a thing not exist already?)

Ok i forgot there was no DP in Pre. i guess its a title that would not be available to pre players seeing as the only (?) way to get LDoA is to AFK death level. I suppose the Title could be triggered by a small NPC given quest just after noob island/pre in the way LB/SS titles are.

I would agree with a title that increases with deaths, as long as:

- Deaths with 60% penalty won't count.
- Use more logical names, like 'Martyr', 'Kamikaze', 'Bonzo', 'Suicidal',
- Can't be acquired if character has survivor or Defender of ascalon.

Death titles are stupid. Let me give you a list of work-arounds.

32000 deaths - Go afk in the Realm of Torment after pulling a few mobs
32000 deaths w/ keyboard response needed - Go afk in the Realm of Torment and move occasionally or set up a macro
32000 deaths w/ no counts after 60dp - Set up 3 heroes with Rebirth, get yourself down to 1 health, go afk and let heroes spam res you.
32000 deaths avoiding any possibilty of afking - not even remotely possible

My ranger has wracked up about 4200 deaths. This includes ~700 deaths from leveling 2 pets for my heroes. Lots and lots of runs in NF Jahai where i would start the run by dieing once. 32000 deaths is either completely un-attainable or would just be afk'd and as such a complete waste of time.

There are few titles which require absurd amounts of "X" to Max out (faction for example)

There are a few titles that have NO max rank

There are a few titles that require nothing but the occasional mouse click.

If you are going to use macros...well then for starters I’m not sure that’s not considered cheating, and secondly ALL titles heck the WHOLE GAME could be done AFK.

There are more than a few titles that have AFK value only already, yet people like to show them off.(and some do absolutely nothing, not even a cosmetic change...even worse some are actually useful. which is worse IMO but there you go)

You are already trying to find ways to max the title....well some people might use similar methods to max it...there’s nothing wrong with that, is their game-time.

If a person kills their char deliberately at the start of every farm run...I think the char would probably be unhappy with his condition.

32000 deaths are very difficult to obtain in a year yes. We are clearly not thinking in the same time-frame. For me obtaining a R2 in treasure hunter has taken 2 YEARS. Yes some people can get it in what...weeks? Kudos to them.

Please be critical if you must, but use arguments that the general playerbase would use, all I need now is for someone to come out and tell me emo title would make people hack into Anet servers with a NSA supercomputer just to obtain it. After all, anything’s possible.

One thing I retain is that you are proposing (it’s a proposal?) to lower the number of deaths for max rank I’m just afraid that lowering the requirement would make people think it’s more easily obtainable via methods you described. How many deaths do you suggest?

I think this idea is ok as long as you make the title names different (even though they are funny) and get rid of the visual changes. This title is way to easy to have visual rewards.

It IS an attack on the social position "Emo".
It's a ridiculous name anyways. And no one should brag about the most deaths... it's something to laugh at.

GW is sort of a "perfect" world... threats to vanquish that aren't too dangerous and no real differences within it's society (Noobs are just the kids and everyone is decent looking).

Conjur me · Aug 15, 2007, 03:06 AM // 03:06

i like the idea of a title for chars before the surviror title but this is to easy to farm /not sighned

Div · Aug 15, 2007, 03:26 AM // 03:26

shrillex · Aug 15, 2007, 08:29 AM // 08:29
