Dont care for any of the PvE titles or the zaishen one. Without Hero or Gladiator title tracks, HA and TA would have dried up LONG ago. Champion is unnecessary in that people will always GvG and will never need the benefits of a title for it. People GvG for the guild, most people HA for the rank.

this is a bit off the subject, but i wish treasure hunter and gold ID titles were account based.

Any title tied to PvE skills is bad.

Legendary Survivor seems a bit of a waste, since you have to make a new character to get it :S.

It's attitudes like this that ruined guild wars.

The only problems I have with some titles is that they are too annoying to get...I mean, what were they thinking when they put the max for drunkard at 10 000 minutes ? xD.

Bad Titles

Survivor/Legendary Defender of Ascalon - Survivor and LDoA are bad titles because there is a point of no return where you are no longer able to get them.

Lucky/Unlucky - Lucky and Unlucky are bad titles because you can gain points for them while away from keyboard.

Drunkard/Sweet Tooth/Party Animal/Zaishen - These are bad titles because you can buy them. Tying an emote to one of them was even worse.

Decent Titles

Treasure Hunter/Wisdom - Treasure Hunter and Wisdom are good titles but they should be account based.

Good Titles

Hero/Gladiator/Champion/Commander/Gamer - These titles are good because they recognize achievement in PvP and do not have an impact on the game.

Cartographer/Guardian/Protector/Vanguisher/Skill Hunter/Master of the North - These skills are good because they recognize achievement in PvE and do not have an impact on the game. Unlike Treasure Hunter and Widom, I believe that these are rightfully character-based.

Kurzick/Luxon/Sunspear/Lightbringer/Deldrimor/Ebon Vanguard/Norn/Asura - These skills are good because they allow character development in PvE. Although I believe PvE skills should be slightly better than standard skills, some skills are currently too powerful.

Maxed Titles - This title is the big one. It is the one that makes all of the other titles seem more important. This title holds the whole sytem together, so I believe it should stay.

I think I outlined all of the skill but if I missed any I apologize. All of this, of course, is just my humble opinnion.

Zrank is terrible, simply because people can buy rank. Hero rank takes skill.

Personally, all the titles, but Zaishen rank is a big one for me. I wouldn't mind if you couldn't buy keys. Since you can, everyone can just buy it. It's pathetic.

Zaishen is poorly implimented.
If it had been awarded whenever you bought keys from an NPC (ie turned in faction or reward points) or was just a way to display total faction earned it would have been a slightly more accurate representation of skill... rather then just PvE farmers buying it

The EoTN reps required to gain armor are annoying at best. For 1 or 2 character s it's not so bad but gosh it's a pain when you want a certain piece of armor but you gotta grind for it on multiple characters. Isn't grinding/buying crafting materials and paying gold enough? That's all you needed with other campaigns. >_>

lol, looks around for like minded players, I wish there were more titles, I don't like grind, please understand, but I love playing the games, I play as usual, maybe when there are double faction or double xx weekend, then I do those stuffs more. other wise i still am playing and enjoying the game until I get the title. so it doesn't feel like grind to me and it is very nice after a long time playing, that you get a "title" for all the things you've been doing in the game.

but there's one title I won't do lol Legendary Defender of Ascalon, because its not "playing" the game any more in my humble opinion.

I don't have problem with any title. I do however have a problem with any in game effect attached to their progress.

All of them. The game was better before titles. I'm still holding out a faint hope there won't be a title system in GW2, but it doesn't seem likely. Yay grind! Yay watching people do the same crap over and over and over again to make purple bars go up! Yay watching people turn parties into a title-grabbing, money-making event! Yay PvE rank discrimination! Yaaaay, titles are so awesome!

You can spam /rank and /zrank, you just have to wait 30 seconds before you can. It's still spamming when you /rank someone constantly every 30 seconds for god knows how long. So they are very much spammable, there is just a limit to how fast you can spam them.

What the RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GO is everyones problem? Titles are there for your own fulfillment, if someone maxes a title that means they took the time to do something. People are just pissy because they don't want to take the time to do something. And I don't give a shit if it is doing something over and over, people who are willing to sacrifice time to do something should get some credit.

And everyone please stop trying to act like Mr.Badass say "No title matters" Those people just piss me off because honestly what do they do in this game? Almost everything contributes to a title.

People who say titles are worthless are just mad because they don't want to take the time to do something. They are upset about something they are to lazy to do. Everyone complains about LDoA because it takes so long, well stfu and stop complaining because there are some people who take the time to do it.

Hero title lame? Well stop complaining because you are to lazy to atleast try for the emote. I think the emote is a good idea. It encourages people to try HA and possibly you get someone like me, who starts HA and doesn't just want to farm fame. I do want to get the emote but I also just like playing.

Please close this thread, this is a complainers heaven and the Guild Wars community has enough of those.

Any title that has an impact on gameplay (Faction titles, rank titles etc) shouldn't be here.
It's fine (and fair) for somebody who has gained X amount of Sunspear faction to be able to display that fact. Not fair for their skills to be more effective.

All PvE titles.. you know, Anet used to be against farming. They used to discourage it. Now... they are altering skills for people to farm with.
