I got the idea from the Explorer Title rewards thread. Though when I searched I didn't see a particular thread on this.

Everyone knows about Hero Points I'm sure. What if when you maxed a Title, you gain a **Mastery Point**. This would be something like an end of game thing where you receive a book of secrets and exchange it for a green item exc...

-After maxing a title receive 1 *Mastery Point*
-Have a few Collectors at the Great Temple of Bathazar *Considering this PvP Area is available to all campaigns*.
º Collector #1: Exchange 1 point for Unique Weapon *Some Kind of new set of greens*
º Collector #2: Exchange 3 Points for Hero's Donation *Double Click to receive 100k* This would only work after your inventory is cleared.
º Collector #3: Exchange 5 Points for Legendary Item. This would be an inscribable maxed req.9 item of any skin in the game. *Crystalline, Dwarven, Celestial, Gothic, Elemental, Exc...* Something you would look for (These Set of Items are Customized to you! This is an Accomplishment!).
-Points cannot be exchanged between different characters meaning if you want some king of special item from these collectors you must get the points on a specific char.

I love the idea you can gain money or something you really wanted in the game. Please give me some feedback on this

I personally don't like the game, because some of us can't play as much as we like, and with the little time we do we can't max titles.

Titles that are meant to have an effect beyond just a title to wear already have it. I don't see any reason to add more rewards to it. If you don't think the current state is rewarding enough, then don't work for it.

No.

Because all this benefits is people who grind for titles and is unfair to those who dont want to grind for a title.

Isn't that what FOW armor is all about?

titles are only meant for display, the only real exception is the Lightbringer title

And whats wrong with giving people access to things that don't alter gameplay but still give bragging rights ?

Personally I don't have any problem giving those who worked towards a title some visible reward that doesn't effect gameplay, and giving them access to pre-customized rare skins seems a nice way to give bragging rights without changing anything. How often do you actually check someones title ?

In saying this the only titles I'm ever planning to work towards is one protector title on each of my characters and lightbringer for my monk so I can do DOA easier.

/unsigned on the gold rewards, as they will lead to inflation.
/signed on pre-customized weapons/armors, provided that equal or better stats are obtainable elsewhere.

They already have the "bragging rights" of having attained the title itself. I see no reason the rewards should be any greater than they already are.

How often do you stare at someones weapon? How often do you want to hear that annoying guy you end up with in a PUG spam "I'm wielding a sundering crystalline sword of fortitude!"?

The very preface of the idea is to give people an easier way of obtaining things they want if they're too lazy to earn them through the existing methods.

How would 100k not affect someone's ability to play the game? I would love it for my own selfish purposes, but it really doesn't belong in GW. The bragging rights come from earning the title in the first place. Like I recently FINALLY killed Glint and got my Protector of Tyria title. I don't need any more reward than being able to parade that title wherever I go because I know I earned it.

We have more then enough rare items and weapons ingame, and more then enough ways to get them either from them dropping from bosses, trading rare or common materials, or rewards for completing the games.

We need more rare/exclusive items added to the game as rewards.

I would rather see a reward for a title which reflects the title.

A gold drop increase, increased chance of rare items, or markers placed on the map for NPCs etc etc etc. Actual beneficial rewards which aid gameplay, and dont just make you look cool with a nice shiney weapon.

/not signed for adding more ways to get MORE weapons.
