I'm more surprised ectos aren't 2-3k yet. Oh and yea that gif oooowwwnnnzzz
fenix
Wow. Very nice work on the gif.
But yeah, I agree, that's way too much favor, I think they should work it like such:
For every maxed title, it adds 1 minute of favor. 50 Maxed titles are required in order to regain favor of the gods.
Obviously 3 is too much, since it'll never go away...

Maybe have it where if it goes over like 5 hours of favor, the gods get angry at us abusing their kindness and margonites swarm towns? now that would be funny

All this serves to tell me is how not special my super special new title is

Now that everyone can do his/her favourite area whenever they want, there's someone that ALWAYS but ALWAYS has to complain, to the complainers: how is this affecting you? or you're so obsessed by money that you want ectos to rise? Goddamn now that its working fine stop complaining like little kids and let everyone play the areas when they want.
Tahlia Tane
Oh please. It's obvious what the problem is. What's the dealio with favor when you constantly have it anyway? Why not just have permanent favor, period? It makes no sense.
Luckily, ArenaNet isn't overly incompetent like some MMO developers (Korea, I'm looking at you). I'm confident that they will do some tweaking with this whole favor stuff.
Btw DarkGanni nice avatar.
Also, that character in the gif is my main. Yay!!

the problem with perma-favor is that there is no incentive to do anything more than what you might have done normally. i think right now a lot of ppl are specifically working on titles because they want the RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GOing hall prize. and the favor change is meant to encourage that for when guild wars 1 dies. gw1 will turn into grinding rubbish and highlight the new game, gw2. whoopee.
i mean, what the old system encouraged the cross union of pvp and pve. and it has been very clearly stated over and over again especially here on guru that pve shouldnt be tied to pvp. so i think anet has gone that extra step to kiss some ass and untie the two. but i think its garbage.
it used to be that when your region had favor it was (while predictable, europe/america) still somewhat glamorous. and it gave a reason for ppl to HoH. now what is the point to HoH? an emote? sexy. but there is no real reason at all to HoH except if you like that format. kinda balances out the other pvp formats but definitely takes away any of the glamor and any pve related reason to pvp at all.
the favor changes effectively unties pve from pvp. thats the way i see it. and yes i think its RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GOing lame.

Better dump your stock during the first week of GWEN to get rid of them while players want new armor.
Alias_X
As soon as GWEN is released, people will have to go for all new titles - which will take loads of time, or they will simply be busy going through the game and there won't be a maxed title for a long time. Believe me, Anet has the ability to monitor the number of titles maxed, and I bet they did before they decided to make this change, so why don't we all keep our pants on and try not to cry when there isn't any favor in a week.
Str0b0
Errrr Access scrolls anyone? I don't see the difference honestly other than one is free and the other isn't. Access scrolls are favor on demand. So what's the big deal?
Darksun
I love it.. all the complaining people did about the new system.. they got owned.

people are complaining because now that we pretty much constant favor everyone will be farming away and the price of ectos and shards will plummet down, not bad for me cause as soon as i get ectos i sell them.
Stolen Souls
Ironic...
When this change was first made, people were complaining...saying we'd never have favor because people wouldn't be maxing enough titles, or would eventually run out of titles to max.
Now people are complaining because we have too much favor.

I tried the same thing last night Lyra, might have been on at the same time as you :P.
And yes, I would have used it as my signature.

This does show me that people are getting titles a lot more often that I'd have imagined. It was also pretty cool to get a few pms from strangers when I got Legendary Guardian.
But this shows that Anet miscalculated. The 3 minutes per certain maxed titles is purely arbitrary and shows that implemented real world, it doesn't acheive its goal: which I assume to be tying favor to pve elements in a way that makes favor still rewarding and something to enjoy while we have it.
Now, it's cheap, constant, and almost irrelevant.

The favor system is just laughable right now.

I asked gaile right after dragon festival, and she said that if everyone just maxed 1 title a year, we would have favor all of the time....

Ectos and Shards prices going down?
Hmmmmm we've had what?? 3+ weeks of constant favor........hmmmm oh look Ectos and Shards are still at the same price.
Another thread that should be deleted.... OP is one of those gamers that is NEVER satisfied. Here's a tip... uninstall GW and go LARPing.

it's possible that ecto/shard prices are not going down because they are already at rock bottom. It's possible that their price reflects the amount of time and expertise it takes to farm them, and very little else (such as scarcity) adding anything on top of that.
Say an average smite run nets you 1 ecto, which is 4.5k. Say it takes you 25 minutes to farm it (solo). So that's barely more than 9k/hr, which is about the same return as most reasonable farm runs, whether that's rares, greens, or just huge amounts of merchant fodder.
angelo: nice trolling attempt, but to be realistic, trading one crap favor system for another means both are equally criticizable.

You guys will be singing a different tune if they do change it again, or when people start to wane off from playing GW.
