Sunspear Title Track (complete)

Track goes by
50:Sunspear Sergeant
100:Sunspear Master Sergeant
175:Sunspear Lieutenant
300:Sunspear Captain
500:Lieutenant Commander
1000:Sunspear Commander
5000:Sunspear Marshal (Don't think I'll make it to here.../cry)

Some pictures..



If anyone is gonna go for Sunspear Marshal post the results...I've got other things to do. ^_^

Hmmm..I Got 500 in like 40 minutes of farming promo points, so if you have no life...its hella easy to get the higher ranks.

So much so I am CONVINCED they'll nerf it before the game comes out. Unless the track has like 20 ranks...

I agree, I got all those points from doing a quest, with the Scale Buff..or whatever it is so every kill was a point, and they come in waves of 3 and 9 soo..^_^

Definately easier then just going on quests to get the points, those scout buffs really speed things up. I was able to get my captain rank in around 30-40 minutes and it wasn't even serious farming.
I'm not sure if they will nerf it because they have to have a way besides quests to gain those points. And not all titles are that hard to complete. So thats not a very good reason to think that they will get rid of it. :P

I want them to keep it...I like the idea of <whatever character i roll> Sunspear Marshal ^_^...justice! we demand justice!

At this point here I'm out of quests that give sunspear points (2 of those quests there don't give any, other 2 require me to reach a rank) so I'm forced to go farming enemies to continue the storyline. I could put up with the 10k faction req in factions because there were enough non-repeatable quests for me to earn it easily on each character (for kurzicks at least, luxons hid theirs after the hatchery), as I actually enjoy sidequests. But I am not liking it for nightfall as I do not like farming.

Because of this and the problems I have with the hero system (I will post these into a thread about the heros), I won't be buying nightfall.

There should be enough quests if you look around to get all the points you need to progress, and talk to scouts because they will give you a blessing that gives you a point per kill of that specific monster type. Its really easy. :]

if you had taken the blessings from the very beginning as youre meant to, youd have no problem at all this is what they call 'the benefits of hindsight'

Yeah, honestly, I'm almost at 3rd tier and I've still got 4-5 quests to finish that will give me mucho more promotion points. I'm not farming at all, just getting the scout buffs while I do other quests, helps a ton. So much so that I can see a nerf in the future, and you'd still not have to farm.

The problem with grinding is that its easy, and therefore boring. Thats why I stopped doing UW farming, because it bored me.

That doesn't change the fact that my character is currently forced to grind.

ya...i think you would need to farm big time to get Marshal :/

You think an hour of killing lvl6 and under guys is that big of a grind, you're terribly spoiled on Factions' quicker gameplay. This is still a fast progression compared to Prophecies.

lol could you imagine a plague worm buff in pre? ^^

Here's my commander, theres actually quite a few running around now.
As far as the tiers go, I'm gonna guess that there is one more after Marshall, that being War Marshall, but who knows. I'll keep chugging away at it, but I don't know if i'll be able to make it to the 5k mark





gotta love the armor and shield, it's dyed red, but came out a pinkish, not to happy with that, but I got 4k so I'll try out some other mixes later

I wonder what it is with the Guildwars crowd that as soon as something is not "instant give away" they start whining and call it grind :/
You have not seen grind yet. Trust me. Not even the FOW Armor is any grind compared to what you get handed in other games.

QFT


in some games you never get to the top unless you play non-stop. all while paying the subscription fee

That's a strawman argument. It's still grind, which means usually going to the same few places over and over and doing the same mindless repetitive task over and over. Just because other games have it too doesn't automatically make it disappear from GW.

I don't see anyone asking for "instant give away" either; I'd like to see more titles which aren't just "look how much gold I spent/how much time I spent grinding for that gold/how much time I spent doing the same thing over and over"

have you ever truely grinded?

grind is going to the same spot day in day out week after week, or doing the same thing over and over again literally hundreds of times, normally thousands. GWs has nothing resembling this, just sometimes really boring bits. Don't miss-use the word grind until you have actually done it :P

Have you truly ever eaten hot food? Hot food is full of Habenero peppers genetically engineered to be hotter than natural Habenero peppers. They are so hot that your mouth explodes in pain and you feel an amazing endorphine rush. Other hot food has nothing resembling this, just some mildly warm bits. Don't mis-use the word "hot" until you have actually eaten hot food. :P

Get the point? Your tolerance for grind is not everyone else's tolerance for grind. Neither is your defnition. I don't care how big of an AC, EQ1/2, DAoC vet you were or what your experience was. It's not mine or others and it's also not relevant to us.

Sorry to be a bit of an ass, but your over-the-top statement demanded an over-the-top-response.
