Yes, i agree that there are lots more important things to take care of however, this is still a feature that should be changed.

it seems to me that its more important to talk about what should be done and leave the order of importance to the developers...

I would also like to see the new GWEN Skills be passive as well...

click ..... let's see .... where is that dam title ..... scrolls up and down list .... ah, there it is ...... click.

BTW: There is a thread about dividing up the title list to make it easier (lazier?) to find a specific title. Either way would make things easier for us lazy people. Just can't stand all that extra work after putting in 10 hours at the shop. Sorry.

You have to switch to Norn title track to get the extra health points. If you found that out in GW:EN. So your Lightbringer will do you no good but switching to Norn will, it gives me 70 extra health to my whole hero party in Norn areas. You just have to pay attention and not be so lazy.

Agreed. I don't like being forced to show a title I don't want just because i'm in that area. Maybe not a big deal for monk who stays away from mobs to turn it off, but if I'm doing 40% (or whatever the amount) more dmg as a War (i.e. max LB), I'd like have that ability automatically on and have my "Kind of a Big Deal" title showing.

As mentioned, Sunspear, Kurzick or Luxon titles don't have to be activated for you to use the skills. Shouldn't be any different for any other titles.

I understand that a lot of people are saying that its not called being lazy...its called enjoying a game. However I personally don't care about having to switch titles...it only takes a couple of seconds. I also like control of turning passive things on or off.

Your welcome. You know, these days it is so rare to find a fellow gamer who really appreciates a challenge. Most people just seem to be looking to have things handed to them. The joy and fun of the challenge seems to be lost on those poor sou....What? You were being sarcastic??......You wimp!

Now we have a reason NOT to make them passive.
Other titles can be activated too.

The same way you have to remeber to check your build when you go out,you have to remember to toggle Hard/Normal mode and choose the title that works for the area.

Yeah, that one new GW:EN reflection skill (or whatever it's called) actually makes that arguement viable Mithran. Still, I'll wait and see if it actually becomes a meta anywhere (DoA, etc). Until then...

Are people missing the point here? I don't give a crap about how many clicks it takes to activate a title. Hell, make me go through 50 clicks, i don't care. I'm merely making the point of the fact that you are FORCED to display a title you don't want because of the area you are in. Why should I be forced to show "Holy Lightbringer (8)" when playing an elite mission in DoA just to make use of the dmg increase it offers if I want to show "Grandmaster Cartographer of X" instead and still benefit from the dmg increase?

What if you could only use Sunspear skills if you had the title activated? No other title forces you to do that whether I need 2 mouse clicks or X amount to activate that title.

Um...I don't know how long you have been playing this game but you seem to be ignoring one important aspect here. TITLES DO NOT DISPLAY IN EXPLORABLE AREAS OR MISSIONS!!

What does it matter if you are "forced" to display Lightbringer in DoA zones?? No one can see it in the explorables. Put your "Grandmaster...." on in town, then when you zone out, switch to the title that gives you the benefit. The fact that you seem to refuse to do this simple task it why everyone thinks your lazy.

then do you think title choice should be included in your build template(s)?

This would put it in more in line with the new factions groups (EOTN) and and skill where then rank acts as the effective attribute (doesn't have to be active title to count). I don't see any issue of this being "passive" behind the scene as just working.

Hey, today I was making some harm to some dark guys in Ravenheart Gloom, and I got out with the Norn title selected because I forgot the Lighbringer...

I killed more than 200 monsters without noticing it, and I have Lightbringer 8.

So it's not a big deal.
