Title hunting seems to be a popular pass time in GW, so I am curious with all the new titles available which ones you choose to wear and why.

Do you find one that stands out as admirable or desirable?

for instance do you find a vanquisher title > KoaBD

let us know which titles you have to choose from as well and which you are working on and would like to have

Do titles ever effect who you choose to have in a pug with you? Do you even notice which title people are using?

Do you set goals for getting titles and timelines?

I am curious as to how imprtant titles have become in GW and what direction we are heading with gaining titles.

I think it depends on your goal.

If you are trying to sell/buy, wear the treasure hunter/wisdom titles, to show to your buyer/seller that you know what youre talking about.

If you are pugging a mission in HM, wear your protector title.

If you are in PvP at HA, wear your hero title.

so on and so forth.

I'm usually wearing Legendary Survivor title, that's the one i'm most proud of. When in pvp I alternate between that and my hero one.

I wear Lightbringer mostly, because otherwise I forget to put it on before facing Margonites and their buddies.

Usually canthan chartographer (need 0.2%) but i mostly have lightbringer as its too useful.
when making teams in some later nightfall missions, i do actually see this title as a requirment

Actually, I prefer not to trade with people who have Treasure Hunter/Wisdom titles, as they generally are scrubs who can run in circles in easy zones, or people who can pay lots for unid's.

I wear:

Legendary Spearmarshal (10) on my Warrior (come on...it was Legendary! that and my KoaBD is too common now)

Vanquishing Hero (8) on my Elementalist (it's that or Lightbringer...)

Whatever else on the others.

Personally, there's not many titles that impress me. Exploration is ok, Protectors are super easy, Treasure Hunter/Wisdom are slow grind, Survivor is farmable, all the others are just grind. The new Hard Mode ones are a bit better, but still silly grind. Hell, even the Hero title was farmable with IWAY and Blood Spike.

The only titles that I think are impressive now, are the People Know Me/I'm Very Important, but only on difficult characters to get it on. Such as: Assassin, Paragon, Dervish, Ranger, etc etc.

On my PvE characters I just wear my non-max LB title, can't be bothered to have to switch that on and off all the time. On my PvP's either nothing or my first level gladiator title, although that doesn't mean that much.

I've got a monk in pre-searing that made Drunkard while working on Legendary Defender of Ascalon. Once I make LDOA, I will sport that one after I leave pre-searing for quite some time. I am sure I will receive both awe and mockery for that one.

My necro was wearing a Protector of Tyria for a while, but now is usually showing of her wisdom title and working on Grandmaster for Tyria.

My dervish made Survivor, but has since made Holy Lightbringer (thanks to Hard Mode) so I sport that and to top it off, it is actually useful in the later parts of Nightfall.

If I am doing something in NF that requires it, I wear my LB title, otherwise it's KoaBD.

Depends on what I feel like. Usually Guardian of Tyria or Tyrian GMC since I really enjoy Tyria.

Of course when I go out to the Realm of Torment it is Holy Lightbringer and when I HA it is the hero title.

I generally wear Lightbringer b/c I spend a good deal of time in NF and since the Sunspear title doesn't actually do anything(nor will it b/c I'm not going to HM for quite a while). I'll probably wear Elonian Cartographer when it gets to 90%. Its pretty funny that my Tyrian Necro has more of the Elonian map than the Tyrian map.

Charmed,

I didn't work to get it, and it shows how lazy I am by sitting on a ring all weekend.

That's my favorite title.

Mighty Lightbringer or what the title is now. Being simply a killcount it means nothing to me, but it's the only title with real benefits.

The title I'm proudest over is Protector of Tyria - it was my first, and I did it entirely with henches (there were no heroes then). That would be the one I'd wear if Lightbringer didn't make it easier to kill (some) stuff.

Incidentally, Protector of Cantha is surely be the easiest title to get in the game. I cleaned out the six missions I didn't have masters in yesterday, with hero & hench teams.

I wear Protector of Tyria. I'm proud of this title since it took me a while to get. Not only that, I had to endure some crazy things and multiple tries to get certain bonus like THK and other missions.

My ranger has most maxed titles so she has "I'm Very Important".

My Necromancer has also got all elite skills and uses the "legendary skillhunter".

Ally of the Kurzicks is the one I use most often, because hardly anyone wears the title track.

Lightbringer when I am in Nightfall and it's needed.

I've found that I'm not much into scraping walls or farming for LB or any other points though I did take advantage of that weekend that you could get double LB and Sunspear points. Came w/in 1000 points of max in Sunspear and haven't earned another sunspear point since. Need another 20-30k in LB for max.

I do, however, like chests and usually wear that title. Though I don't chest run. I'll be rank 5 in another 50 chests. This and my rank 4 Wisdom. I don't see just a whole lot of Ele's wearing these titles.

Elonian GMC in Elona, Tyrian in Tyria and Cantha. I'll probably wear Legendary Skill Hunter rather than KoaBD (LSH will get me KoaBD). But once I get get PKM, i'm very close to maxing about 6 titles i'll wear that. Someone said Protector of Cantha was easy, I might go for it, can Gyala be Mastered with Hero/Hench and if so can someone recommend a build?

Went off topic a bit, meh...
