With the introduction of titles, it became obvious to me that all sorts of useless information about your character was being stored somewhere.
So surely there must be some information on the amount of monsters you've killed and what type they were?
This could lead to some great titles, such as "Charrbane" or "Scourge of the Aatxe".
Make them limitless so they don't count towards KoaBD, but it would be fun to have a title that let everyone know your bloody-minded, psychopathic desire to wipe all Rain Beetles off of the face of the planet
Hell, if not titles, then some sort of summary page listing each monster type and how many of them you've killed, something that a few single player RPGs have done in the past

In fact, expanding on that last idea, some sort of in-game bestiary would be VERY cool; something that only filled with entries as and when you encountered the monsters, with special entries for bosses
Some of the monsters have fantastic character, and knowing more about them would add a lot of flavour to the game.

I think the idea is interesting. It would be neat to earn titles for killing a large amount of certain monster types. Some titles would mean less than others, but it would be pretty cool to have something like 'Margonite Slayer'.

The numbers would be skewed easily though because of farming.

An indepth stats page is something I thought would be nice to have too.

I wholeheartedly agree with this, i remember something similar in a game called "vagrant Story" which gave you statistics on specific enemy classes you had killed, Killing an enemy in this game also unlocked its picture and statistics of health, mana, skills used etc in a beastiery. It was a very nice touch....I would love to know hom many armoured cave spiders i have killed on beach runs...

It'd be similar to the idea behind Lightbringer, so I like the idea.

/signed for PvE

This will give some use to the "of Prunning" mod. People going for the "Gardener" title would love to have a Prunning mod.

/unsigned for PvP

I think something like this would be fun. I would love to have a personal stat's page. Showing usage of skills, total damage etc. It would also be cool to have a mission summary after the end of a mission ie: you dealt x damage, lost x health, etc. Maybe have a ranking for the skills you used, to see total damage per use or something. Might be a nice idea for tweakign builds.

But I digress../signed

I like the idea. I wanna know how many Charr I've violated >_>, how many minions I've summoned. We already have /deaths, I want the rest of my stats as well.

I'll love this.
In many games like leyend or Mana or Temple of Elemental Evil you have logs of how many creatures of each kind you killed.

In the tittles tab, there will be the tittles.
- Plants
- Dragons
- Skales
- Skree
- Demons
- Beats
- etc...

Some special creatures (hard, unique, but not bosses) may be out of this or have a common title:
Shiro, Kuunavagh, Glint, The Lich Lord, Varesh, Abaddon, Urgoz...

I was actually gonna post this. I don't really care if they introduce a title for it. A /kills command is enough for me. I JUST WANT TO KNOW HOW MANY OF THOSE BLASTED MOSTERS IVE KILLED.

I have often wished that deaths were tracked seperately for PVP and PVE, and that your PVP kill count was tracked...

It's the best amazing idea in GW. Kill counting always great and more fun with the game, i want play more time with GW, and that's idea kill counting can do it, with a bestiary is too good for me.

How would one differentiate between foes of different levels? One level 20 may go out and kill 50 lvl 20 Charr while another level 20 goes out and kills 100 lvl 5 Charr.... Would the title only operate on those that are levels 20+ like the wisdom title only works on gold items?
