Account-wide Titles Needed

A lot of people have accomplished a lot with more than one role-playing character. A title that I wish was implemented is that you have *unlocked all skills in the game* or campaign. I have unlocked everything in Tyria with 4 characters, and am in the process of doing it for Cantha. I'm sure there could be more titles that would work better with account-scope than just character-scope.

Skill hunter, treasure hunter, wisdom title .... these should be account based as well. I have multiple characters and i have capped all their respective skill with them. I see no reason for one single character to have all game elites considering that character wont have any non elite skills to back them up. Same with treasure hunter and wisdom, having multiple characters means i open chests with all of my characters and id them when i find them.

Titles are already too easy. The easier the less respected.

For the last time, making titles account based does not make them easier. You still have to do the exact same work, except you can use different characters while achieving the title. Titles should reflect the achievements of the player, not the individual character.

your mesmer killed glint, not your monk, so why should your monk be the protector of tyria once your mesmer does it all?

your warrior did the chest runs, not your ele. why should your ele wear the title?

glads/hero are account based since pvp orienated titles can be made with pvp chars.

The only ones I agree on are the Skill Hunter, Treasure Hunter and Wisdom titles, espically the Skill Hunter because I don't fancy capping all the elite skills again when I've already unlocked them all.

the character based titles are designed to represrent the accomplishments of that character and the skills that you used that accomplished that title. In all honesty, the skill hunter/wisdom/treasue hunter title tracks are not that hard to master, you just need to stop being so lazy and get with it. Titles are meant to be earned, and not just given to you across the board when one character does all the work.

Don't you guys think that having multiple titles is just as much of an accomplishment, or do you really think that just because your character is level 5 and has mastered a title is going to get alot of false respect?

The skill hunter title is absurd imo, its a total waste of time to cap EVERY elite skill for every profession on just one character. If the wisdom and chest hunter titles were accord based then you wouldnt be stuck switching over items so they can be idented on a specific title.

And drunkard title only counts for one? that seems odd, why would it even matter which character got drunk, it seems like it should count for all

Wow wow wow wow

Are all of you missing the point? The titles aren't to show what YOU can do, they're designed to show HOW MUCH you love a SPECIFIC character.

And that drunk thing doesn't even make sense there guy. If any of them deserve to be character-based, it's that one; not all your characters got drunk, only one of them did.

A UAX title is a good idea, but changing the character based titles now to account is pointless. Skill Hunter account based? That's like saying if you buy a skill for one character it should be available to all of them (PvE). For the chest running titles, why should you havea character who didn't do the runs get the title? The only reason some titles are account based is because they are for PvP characters, which are routinely created and destroyed. If they weren't account based, no one would have them.

I'm for making new titles that are account wide, especially UAX. dont change the old ones, they are fine the way they are.
Most titles dont make sense.
What's the point of exploring every corner of the map, or getting a perfect score on every mission? This is just as pointless as capping every skill, being drunk for x minutes, or all the other silly titles.

titles that might be account based:

source of wisdom (items identified by all characters count in the track)
skill hunter (must be achieved by 1 character alone, then counts as account wide)

titles that no way in hell could be account-wide
treasure hunter: ppl that have this title on a hard to run character? they run this wasting time because every noob can now run with a wammo and count as account wide title? no no thanks, someone run this with necro or mesmer, respect them

Anet are sending mixed messages, I think unintentionally, and it needs sorting. With one hand they offer character titles, and with the other they offer professions. It puts players into a horrible dilemma - Do you go for the titles and eschew the other professions, or do you roll the other classes and lose all your titles? Either way you have to lose out

The system is fine if you like to pour your heart and soul into just one character, and those people will be happy and tell the others to shut up. But you're screwed if you play multiple - all your efforts get diluted and go unrewarded. Just horrible!

Give credit to the player, not the character I say.

Some of you are saying some titles shouldn’t be account based. I got a question for you. Why is friend of the kurzik and friend of luxon account based? Why should your monk be able to wear the title when your warrior or ranger did all the ff runs to earn the factions? Why should gladiator title be account based when you used your warrior or monk to get the points, why should your ele be allowed to wear it? I love my account not one specific character, hence i made 6 different characters, hence Anet gave us many slots for characters and allowed us o purchase more character slots. Most of these titles have flaws in concept. It’s as if Anet is forcing a player to abandon the whole account full of characters and focus on one specific character. Yet they give you the opportunity to play every profession.

Yes I agree that protector and cartographer titles should stay character based. But I still say that some of the other titles should be account based, ie. Skill hunter, treasure hunter, wisdom.

Again My 2 Cents.

I have worked dammed hard to achieve the titles I have on one character. By making them account wide, it will diminish them.

You do not have to go for the titles ...... but the option is there if you want too.

Please Anet, do NOT make these titles account based.

Anyone can get every title too easilly, except maybe the exploration and gold id titles.

I say fix the current ones. Glads for Zaishen/touch ranger or Rank for Iway, give me a break.

One of the poorest things done with GW is to reward the lamers, especially after releasing such a great conceptual game. World of Guild Wars here we come...

I've got another question for you... Has anyone here posted a reason to have them acount based except: "it's too hard/expensive"?
