I was wondering how many of you think it would be a good idea to award fame in the new Free For All modes of the Guild Wars: Factions.

It makes sence to me that someone would gain fame for being a war hero, rather than just invading some tomb. I've heard people say that Fame/Rank should just be a Tombs/Hoh/Heroes' Ascent thing. What do you think? Should the FFA give you Fame or should it remain HoH only?

fame is Hall of hero thing ...

Odd how a lot of people have come out of the woodwork in the past few weeks with inventive ways for themselves to earn Fame without having to do anything challenging to get it.

Fame and Rank need to either be removed entirely or fixed. You should be able to lose rank depending on how badly you lost, and gain it not in increasing incriments, but 1 at a time for every battle. Everyone should be reset at zero, and the fame per rank should be reduced since it would take much longer with the better, more accurate system. Only then will Fame be a good indicator for player skill.

On topic, I think Fame/Rank should be specific to Hero's Ascent. Since there is already an indicator for Guild Battles (Guild Rank, unless Smurfs), and since no one cares about the Random or Team arenas, we only need one more fame/rank esque system that would work exclusively for whatever new PvP is added to Factions - hopefully an organized PvP.

Well, I play alot team arena and guild battles and have much faction, but I'm not even rank 6...
I have loads of expierence. I just don't like the HoH, I think the battles take to long, is another story when you do it with your guild, but stilll I like the smaller parties.
So antoher fame system would be good. I have over 100k faction that should give me some kind of reward right..?

Let's leave Fame as a reward for HoH and such and stay away from giving out another type of reward for either PvE or PvP. I know a lot of people disagree, but I have around 40k faction and about 4 millionish xp on 4 characters. Shouldn't I have fame too... nope, not for anything but HoH. The play of the TA/CA and the faction reward is rewarding in itself... as is the PvE grind. Leave Fame and Rank, and its like, to the HoH...

OMG.. ok whatever... You want fame. go get some... But don't make it out like you deserve it for JUST PvE humping NPC creatures... That's just too easy... If you have never played tombs (now Heroes Ascent) then you really have no idea what or how to gain fame legitimately. Why? Cause your not fighting a living thinking player in PvE. Just a bunch or preprogrammed zombies MOBs that are easily picked off in small groups while all the rest stand around doing nothing... try that in a good HoH match... your dead... Your famous for taking on and winning against your Peers... not NPCs...
