ok,we all know that GW:EN is the last expantion for gw1.
I am all for a reformat of a fair change
BUT in order to keep the "kind of a big deal" title still kind of a big deal.Why not do this:remove the exsisting non-max title (which is notable to be maxed) to campaign specific titles that are based on ALL skills in that campaign per charecter.(not just elites) In my eyes this would be fair to be called a title and still keep the kind of a big deal just that.
and to all those that that think its too much?look at sweet tooth and drunkard titles........nuf said.......

ANet should understand that there is a LOT of people who are not fans of PvP 3) I'm also troubled by news about next expansion. Only 100 new skills ? Surely they won't do 90% of them elites. So my title will stay unmaxed. |

Gaile just an idea I've had (don't know if someones come up with it already, I haven't had time to read through this entire thread).
Split the title as proposed, then you have your Tyrian/Canthan/Elonan Cartographer/Skill Hunter/Protector titles, how about a title for getting all the ones from each campaign including GW:EN. Then for those that can achieve all 4 of those give them a title for that, maybe even have it carry over into GW2 in some way (possibly a title or maybe some extra bling for our GW2 characters or maybe something to do with the monument thingy). Like I said just an idea.

That 16.82% that voted against change title, did it because they feared to lose the old title or something, hahaha! so 100% want the change. Maybe I already posted that but I don't really remember, this thread is plenty big and old; Anyway, the title change is a fact, no more to discuss here.

I rly dont want campaign specific titles for this.
Exchanging one cool title for 3 or 4 weak ones is not my idea of title improvement.
Right now I am nearing the 290 elites, and I worked my butt off to get all of them. Why should titles allways be maxable? For the Kind of a big deal title track? lolol. I dont want to become Tyrian Skill hunter, or Canthan skill hunter, because such titles are lame and easy to get, this will lower the titles to the level of the sunspear title track.
My suggestion is making it so that with GWEN the total number of elites is 380 and make Master Skill Hunter (6) the max title. Then you would have a cool title. And the people who dont own all games should stop complaining

Perhaps, people who DO own all campaigns should stop complaining.

IMO - since GW is being "killed off" in favor of GW2 (I do understand that you will still be able to play GW) the skill cap title should be left as it is - but you should be able to max it out, spending so much money on sigs and getting no reward for it is an abominable way forward. I am currently on my way to expert and only recently discovered that I could never max it (kind of like sunspear and lightbringer) I gained Legendary Survivor and 3 prot titles, then I decided to work on the caps - all 11 characters on my primary account have completed all 3 campaigns, so the international protector would be good for me. n e ways - unless there is a way to max out this title - I am going to stop wasting money on caps I already have (at least my heroes will benefit from those I have capped).
Mordakai
Why not have the option to do either / or?
Just make it so BOTH the current Skill Hunter (assuming it is made to max) and the other will not count towards KOABD track.

Sunspear and skill can't be though, and should be possible.

I think that most people have missed the point here.
The key thing to remember is that you can only display ONE title at a time.
The fact is I’m going to have to lose my Elite Skill Hunter Title.. for 3 lesser, easier to get ones..
So which one of the 3 titles am I going to wear… answer… NONE.
Oh yeah.. the argument that I will now have the K.O.A.B.D. title… so what? I already have it and don’t wear it… ‘cause people assume I’ve got 3 Protector titles and spent a whole lot of Pay-Pal cash on getting sweet tooth & drunkard!...
No , ‘Kind of a Big Deal’ is not for me…
Anyway its all for nothing.. GW is already dieing, and will be dead as soon as GW2 is here, and what are all these titles are worth? A unique item or pet in GW2 that can be bought with daddy’s credit card?
No thank you!

I wear nothing!Also, this is a gw FAN forum, I mean, people here normally don't like comments like yours. AKA: The word "dying" shouldn't be written in the same sentence with the words "Guild Wars" or "this game", if you don't want people hate you

Canthan Skill Hunter
Elonian Skill Hunter +

International Skill Hunter (which will be implemented too)

(As we introduce more campaigns, we'd introduce higher levels of the cross-campaign Skill Hunter title.)

Across The Battle
Gaile in game has said on a couple occasions that this title should be updated by the end of the month/the introduction of Hard Mode
Will this actually happen? That Im not so sure of, but I personally asked it to her one day.

I think I already posted about this but the word "international" has no sense in a medieval world, it's just my opinion. I hope Arenanet comes with a creative name for the title, as always.
Also, a good idea could be add something similar with the Protector and Guardian titles; Something like "Master Protector" when you have the 3 Protector titles. Also "Master Cartographer". No need to count as a maxed title.
And another suggestion: Titles with only one level don't need the (1) in them. I just created a thread in suggestions part of the forum: http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/s...php?t=10142669

Kills me when people say that the Elite Skill tracking is easy. It is much harder than Cartographer since it requires a ton of cash and skill points just to buy the caps. As a Cartographer I can partner up with fellow runners and cover large chunks of the various continents easily and for FREE.
The reality is that each title has it's problems. I'm sure most of us have been in mission groups with PUG's who go AFK after a few minutes just so they can collect the Protector titles. Wisdom just takes lots of cash. Same with Treasure hunter. Not that hard to run certain areas and find chests. Don't get me started on Drunkard.
To capture all the Elites requires that you go through every mission, virtually every location, and you have to kill things. It requires team work and skill.

This would have been much easier just using one of the chars for the skills of the other profession, because I wouldn't actually have to bring that other character to realm of torment, ring of fire or any other area that's pretty far from the start...
NeHoMaR
Protector, Cartographer and Skill Hunter is the same in some way. If you start with one, you will be doing (or easing) the other too as well!

I belive it should be split across the campaigns, at the moment it's not available to be maxed-out at all, even if you do happen to own all campaigns offered. Furthermore I know a multitude of people who only own 1 or 2 campaigns... and cheapening Kind of a big deal, about that, I find that thought silly... Sure, that means that if you spend the money, skill points, time, and energy, to run around all 3 campaigns and capture every elite skill there is, you'll obtain 3 titles instead of 1... However, I can not think of a single maxed out title that's "easy" to obtain. (though I find getting protector of cantha fairly easy, due to a small number of missions, only dependant on time of completion) But, Kind of a big deal is obtainable soley via account-based titles... There are currently 9 account-based titles obtainable to max out, and if you do so, all you would need on any character is 1 maxed-out title to be "people know me (2)"... Heck, you could be "People know me" in pre-searing by getting Legendary Defender of Ascalon. (if you're missing a maxed title, you can get drunkard, and possibly sweet tooth if you can gain enough golden eggs while you still can) But as for fairness goes, I think wholeheartedly that this should be split. ...and that rollerbeetle racing should be every weekend, because it just plain kicked ass.

Yes this would be good, but would the specified "international" titles have a max and count towards the big deal title?

Now there's
Tyria Skill Hunter
cantha Skill Hunter
Elona Skill Hunter
and
International Skill Hunter (when you get all 3 chapter titles)
Core Elites count towards all three titles. So if you cap Word Of Healing in Tyria, it will count towards the other two places as well - even if you don't have that chapter!

I'm not too fond with this update. Previously, I had Skill Hunter 2 to show off. Now, I don't have any skill hunter titles to show off! I went on a capping binge last weekend and I'm still 20 caps away from getting the Tyrian and Canthan titles and about 60 caps away from the Elonian one.
