This topic is for players to propose a title or a series of titles for an achievement in Guild Wars.
When giving title suggestions, please keep in mind the following:
- Titles and title series should reflect directly or indirectly on some kind of achievement -- be it experience, time played, gathered wealth, prominence, etc. Titles are something you are proud of, and they should not be trivially easy to get. If your title series has mor than one title, the first title(s) in it should not be outrageously difficult either -- that's what the top titles are for. However, remember that top titles count toward the esteemed KOABD title, and thus the top title, or the title itself if it is the only one in its series, should be at least reasonably difficult.
- I strongly recommend that a suggested should be attainable by everyone -- no discrimination on basis of primary profession, character gender, birthplace, and past activities. I know, there are some exceptions (Survivor and Ascalon Defender) but these titles are extremely controversial and probably suggesting one would not be met popularly.
- Although many titles depend on personal wealth, wealth should not be the sole and only factor that determines a title. We don't want yet another reward for ebayers.
- Be as detailed as possible. If you say something along the lines "I want a title for beating UW", then that's vague and undetailed. Don't shift extra work on the shoulders of those who would choose whether to implement a title or not (ANet). If you take the length and specify what is the title name, what is the exact condition of meeting it (is it killing every single monster in UW or just doing the Restore Monuments quest?), specify a reward, if any, that comes with the title, and so on, and really develop it fully, then it will be commented on better, and has a higher chance of being actually implemented. Make sure to specify technical details such as whether the title is character or account-based.
Please follow the following format for easier reading and comparison. You can of course add additional sections to it. If there is a section I am missing, tell me and I will add it.:
Title name: If it is series, list generic name.
Title tiers: If it is a series of titles, list names and numbers.
Title purpose: What the title is supposed to reward.
Title type: Account or character-based.
Title pre-requisites: What you need before the title counter is even displayed?
Title requirements: What you need to actually get the title(s)? List once for each rank.
Title details: Detailed description of the title.
Title reward: If any. Keep it symbolical - it shouldn't be a huge advantage, or it will be unfair for rest.
Title reasoning: Why you suggest the title should be implemented. Keep your justificaitons separate from the actual title details for easier reading.
So, to kick it off...
Title name: Servant of Balthazar
Title tiers: 2 (1: Servant of Balthazar, 2: Zeal Servant of Balthazar)
Title purpose: Reward achievements in the Fissure of Woe
Title type: Character-based
Title pre-requisites: Complete any quest in FoW at least once.
Title requirements (1): Reach and complete all FoW quests to access Forge on the same run.
Title requirements (2): Complete every single FoW quest on the same run.
Title details: : The title progress bar appears when you first enter FoW and complete at least one quest (likely would be the Rastigan one, but doesn't have to). It would tell you to complete the Forgemaster quest to gain the first level. Once the first level is gained, it will tell you to complete all FoW quests on the same run to achieve the second level.
Title reward:: For each gained level in the title, entrance to FoW is reduced by 100 gold when the payer is the person who owns the title.
Title justification: FoW is one of the core high-level areas, and it would be nice to reward players who take the time and complete it. The reward is largely symbolical (100-200g don't make huge difference from the 1 plat starting fee), but enough to make people happy. The top title requires considerable effort and team spirit, so it upholds its position and count towards KOABD.
Title name: Servant of Grenth
Title tiers: 2 (1: Servant of Grenth, 2: Zeal Servant of Grenth)
Title purpose: Reward achievements in the Underworld
Title type: Character-based
Title pre-requisites: Complete any quest in the Underworld at least once.
Title requirements (1): Complete the Restore Monuments of Grenth quest at least once.
Title requirements (2): Complete every single UW quest on the same run.
Title details: : The title progress bar appears when you first enter UW and complete at least one quest (only option I recall is the Clear the Chamber one, but if I'm wrong, it doesn't have to be that one in particular). It would tell you to complete the Restore Monuments of Grenth quest to gain the first level. Once the first level is gained, it will tell you to complete all UW quests on the same run to achieve the second level.
Title reward:: For each gained level in the title, entrance to UW is reduced by 100 gold when the payer is the person who owns the title.
Title justification: UW is one of the core high-level areas, and it would be nice to reward players who take the time and complete it. The reward is largely symbolical (100-200g don't make huge difference from the 1 plat starting fee), but enough to make people happy. The top title requires considerable effort and team spirit, so it upholds its position and count towards KOABD.
Keep these title suggestions coming! Remember -- the better you develop and document it, the better you polish it and make sure its fair and balanced -- the higher is your chance of seeing it through.
