Kind of a Big Thread

I've got 8 max titles atm:

Legendary skill hunter (4)
Cartographer Cantha and Elona
Protector Cantha
Sunspear

Hopefully this week I'll do the bonus of THK and explore around there which will give me Protector Tyria and (hopefully) Cartographer Tyria.

Titles are still something I like to do as I don't PvP any more and I don't really wanna run any more characters through storylines. I also still think that (in most cases) they're an achievement.

Legendary Skill Hunter
Tyrian Skill Hunter
Canthan Skill Hunter
Elona Skill Hunter
Protector of Tyria
Protector of Cantha
Protector of Elona

The elite skills were the only title that I was willing to spend gold on. The sweet tooth, drunk and so on would cost too much and are just boring and pointless (my opinion). I'm currently sort of working on cartographer for tyria. I've got about 94% and it's getting quite frustrating, but it's something to do.

I got to Im Very Important on my ele just working on titles in spare time, didnt really take that long and wasnt that hard, which is why its so common, a "lesser" title like LDOA takes way more effort imo, i couldnt stand the constant waking up to an error7 screen after death lvling, gave up on that one :P

Red-Tide, I will have the EXACT same titles as you on my monk! The only one I am missing is Lightbringer, and I'm hoping to have that maxed out before the GWEN preview weekend (I had been working on Elona Cartography and finished that one last weekend).

What titles are you going to get for "I'm Very Important"? I was hoping to do Guardians, but my guild isn't into HM...

O-Dawg

I got KoaBD about a month ago:
Three protectors, and Tyrian and Canthan Skill Hunter.
Just two days before the new change to the favor system I got Legendary Spearmarshal and I am close to Holy Lightbringer and Elonian Skill Hunter.
As much as I would love to get the cartography titles, the shear number of mobs I would have to go through to wall hug would drive me nuts, just repeating some explorable areas on alternate characters drives me nuts because some mobs are so close together.

Legendary Cartographer
Legendary Skill Hunter
Legendary Spearmarshal
Holy Lightbringer
all 3 protector
Guardian of Tyria
connoisseur of confectioneries

All the titles I maxed to get "Im very important". No more title grinding, 15 is max no need to go any more. (Will grind titles again when next tier is opened)

Im just happy in spending 800K for connoisseur of confectioneries instead of 2 mil.

i hit "i'm very important" a few weeks ago:

protector (3)
guardian (2)
skill hunter (4)
cartographer (4)
legendary spearmarshal
connoiseur of confectionaries

i'm finishing up lightbringer and guardian of cantha (and, in turn, legendary guardian) just to even things out.
i'd like to see them put out a couple new tiers of the title track ^_^

/congrats nice work, and u are a mesner too
i just hit max sweet tooth last weekend during the dragon festival redux, was 22nd, woking on wisdom right now, halfway there, treasure hunter and drunkard just gonna take too long, oh well, i will get em one day.
once again thx for sharing and gratz on titles^ ^
mine are:
legendary guardian
legendary vanquisher
legendary catographer
legendary skill hunter
connoiseur of confectionaries
sunspear
lightbriger

I've maxed 18 titles mostly by helping guildies do things. I'll probably wait 'til GW:EN to max 2 more titles because I want tier 4 of KoaBD, if they ever get around to adding them. Sad part being that I'll still probably wear Legendary Guardian or Ale-Hound anyway.

Yeah, I got level 3 KoaBD on my ele, I really only play 1 character though. I don't show the title either unless people ask, I usually have my LB title on (for the bonus) or my vanquishing title because I think that means more. It's far too easy to get titles by being run through the game, buying gold and using it for money sink titles like drunk and sweets, for KoaBD to really mean much. I get more excited about seeing high level ab titles, glad titles, and cartographer or vanquishing titles because it means that person has made a concerted effort to excel at something. FWIW, I have the skill hunter, cartographer, protector, vanquisher, sunspear, lb, and am only a couple missions away from guardian.

posters should go here to display title progress

11 Titles maxed, once I finish mapping Tyria it'll bump to 13. It will get hard after that.

Man everybody's got legendary skill hunter lol. I don't even have it for any game.

I got 6 maxed so far

Legendary Sunspear
protector of tyria
protector of cantha
protector of elona
Tyrian grandmaster cartographer
Elonian grandmaster chartorapher

almsot finished exploring cantha, working on People know me.

I'm 4/6 (I think the same titles as Legendary Guardian). I'm currently (as in...right now) using tab spacebar to level SS/LB. I hate grinding but at least it's a grind that only requires "tab/spacebar" followed by an "alt-tab" to post on this forum.

I guess I'm sort of inadvertantly doing Wisdom too.

got lots of toons working on different titles.
my tyrian monk has the most so far with 5:
prot of all 3 chapters, and cartographer of tyria and cantha (at 95.8 of elona and still havent done the challenge mission there) and working on final level of sunspear.
My tyrian ele has 2: prot of tyria and cantha and 17/20 for elona. While working on her cartography titles 98.7 cantha, 92.9 elona and 91.9 tyria.
Most of my other 13 I play regularly have at least one title (usually a prot: cantha), while my elonian ele is working on survivor (has level 1), while the second easiest is sunspear (5 toons are over 20k points for that while 2 are seriously working on it).
I get tired of working with one toon, then I move to another for a while. My monk is stuck on the cartography since I wont pay anyone to find that last bit for him...so he will slowly find/grind out the last few corners for it.

titles that NONE of my toons are working on:
sweet tooth, skill hunter, vanquisher, gamer, treasure hunter, lucky/unlucky, friend of kurzicks/luxons (will get to level 1 so I get the skills soon!), champion and LDOA. My monk has started on the drunkard and wisdom titles (I got lots of drinks so someday when I am really bored I will work on that one again), though I doubt he will max either (level 2 almost 3 on wisdom, and a few hundred minutes on drunkard so far).

My view of titles has grown with my development as Guild Wars player.

When I was new and saw players with "Tyrian Grandmaster Cartographer" it really impressed me. When I played through the storyline and quests I started focussing on getting that title myself, and I actually enjoyed the time invested in it and seeing the percentage rise slowly but surely.

Now I hunted my way through all Cartographers, Lightbringer, Sunspear, Skill Hunters and Protectors and I think it's quite an achievement. But I also experienced that a title can lose a bit of it's shine when you actually get it.

But in the end, titles are in my opinion the highest thing you can reach in this game, because it really shows that you are dedicated to Guild Wars and invested a lot of time in it.

For now I took a break in title hunting The titles that are left seem to be too hard (Hard mode titles, PvP titles, Insane faction title) or too expensive (Drunkard, Sweets, (Un)lucky). I hope to become "very important" with the additional titles of GW:EN.

-- double --

These are my guys. Not playing much GW these days catching up on the forums and waiting for GWEN.. The ranger has 19 titles and every skill in the game he is my oldest and dearest toon. The rit is a legendary survivor gotten the old school way (actually playing though the game). Mesmer will be working on the ale hound title next.

For me, the game really is 'Title Wars' It's the only reason I log in at this point, since I've slowly diverged from any PvP participation as the new campaigns have come out before I've had a chance to fully involve myself in all their new skills and PvE experiences.

My title obsession began with the introduction of survivor, when I QQ'd about how my current 'main' char would never be able to get it. So I made my first ever Ele, and began the efforts that have led thusfar to...

16 Max titles consisting of:

Leg. Survivor x1
Sunspear x1
Lightbringer x1
Cartography x4
Skill Hunter x4
Protector x3
Guardian x2 (Elona, Tyria)


Progress toward other titles, in order of attainability:

Guardian of Cantha 12/13 (Eternal Grove bah)
Leg Guardian 5/6 (see above)
Sweet Tooth ~7300/10000
Tyrian Vanquisher ~21/54
Kurzick Allegiance 8/12 (~3,200,000/10,000,000)


So obviously, my immediate goal is to finally complete Eternal Grove HM and instantaneous go from 16 to 18, then I've got Connoisseur dead in my sights. When vanquisher first was released, I tried to do one zone a day but it got too tedious and I've needed to take an extensive break. The 21 zones are mostly Jungle, North Kryta, and Ascalon.

Eternal Grove HM took three tries for me and my teammate (heroway ftw). I was an offensive spirit spam rit that brought two necros and a monk (SS/SV necros and a Restore Condition Prot monk) while my teammate, a Monk, brought two MMs and.. forgot the other hero my teammate brought. Anyway, it wasn't too bad at all. The only kind of hard part was the flood of enemies at the end, and the trick is to let them come in a LITTLE bit but not too deep, but don't fight them at the actual gates or you're going to die immediately.
