Pretty simple, though it should only be added for some species or creatures, but well, species slayers, for example, kill 1000 dragons (drakes, glint, etc) and you can wear a "dragon hunter" title, kill 5000 and wear the dragonslayer title, kill 10,000 and wear grand dragonslayer, Althought it would cause people to farm masses of these creatures it would still be an interesting title. i discussed this with my guild and the response was incredibly positive. What are your thoughts? also, what creatures/species should be worth a title? as if they were all added you would easily have an out of control title list.

thats my 2 cents.

I like the idea, although it's not very realistic. I would so go for "Super grand smite crawler slayer"

/Signed - but unrealistic.

One thing that might work (Runescape idea alert): Have an NPC that assigns you x monsters to kill, you kill them to get points, and the title is just called "Slayer"

Slayer (1)
Fierce Slayer (2)
Mighty Slayer (3)
Deadly Slayer (4)...
I think you get the idea.

(Yes I used to play runescape. Slayer was my favorite skill)

I like the idea too, and wanted to add something. I remember from Diablo I, every time you slayed a certain monster, more and more information about this creature was revelead to you (like hitpoints, weaknesses and so). Would be a neat idea if something like this was implemented in Guild Wars.

/signed plz visit Kill Counts and GW Bestiary topic

I think that Sunspear and Lightbringer titles cover these topics pretty nicely. The downside is that there is no apparent way to get Max Sunspear, and Lightbringer goes all the way to 50,000. I suppose the Max Lightbringer title is just as effective as a "Margonite, Torment Creature, and Titan" Slayer Title.

I like the idea to talk to an NPC to kill a certain amounnt of monsters.

I fear for all the human, drake and demons out there.....(will players kill abbadon 1000 times for the title god slayer?? I bet someone will)
However...a snowman slayer might be fun=P

I realy dont see the point of title in the first place
(none of them are funny...other then the drunk)
but I was never against it anyway.

WAYYY to many possible titles out there. If they did something like this, they would have to completely revamp the way titles are displayed in the h menu.

Lex Talionis · Jan 14, 2007, 12:18 AM // 00:18

Sounds like the pve version of the hero title lol. Unless it has a use such as: resistance to certain enemies depending on how many you kill and extra damage done to those enemies (like the lightbringer title). Otherwise its quite pointless. I doubt this title will ever be created since it'd be a clone of the lightbringer title.

Unlucky Slayer · Jan 14, 2007, 01:42 AM // 01:42

If Slayer Titles are added I demand a special "Unlucky Slayer (*)" title!

Also I dont know if this would work, but if done correctly it'd be pretty cool.

I must say Omnidragon42 idea is really good, and yer, the titles could get out of control, but like i said, only for some things, and grouping things together aswell, so all the avicara (cant spell) and tengu and more could be "birds" and such, and some things (like a kappa for example) wouldnt get a title. I also like the idea of revealing information about a foe the higher your rank in that slayer, but then they would have to add in all creatures to the titles and make it out of control, although, it wouldn't be to hard (*gasp* another suggestion coming) to make a title menu window (hotkey: T) with serveral tabs, ie: one for global, one for tyria, one for cantha, one for elona, one for slayer, or something similar to that.

Piece of shit, we have Sunspear and Lightbringer, we don't need any more pointless grinding titles, go play another game.

seut · Jan 14, 2007, 06:11 AM // 06:11

Sorry, but a kill counter for every species on every character would need a lot of overhead & database disc space. I would rather want additional 80storage slots instead of a counter for 80species.

I maintain what I've said and agree with seut and Makkert. Wtf.

any new titles are good.

Seissor · Jan 16, 2007, 06:01 AM // 06:01

i like the idea, but I would make it a bit like the hero title, so it can almost never be maxed or would take a loooong time, just so ppl dont go and get KOABD titles too easily.

Dougal Kronik · Jan 16, 2007, 05:24 PM // 17:24

I think it should come from a quest giver. Who randomly appears in towns, and requires you to kill X of <random creature type> for x point(s) towards your Slayer title.

subarucar · May 05, 2007, 02:27 AM // 02:27

Well the new vanquisher title in hard mode is kinda like that. and also Lightbringer and sunspear are similar as well
