thought about it a little, it makes sense, you already got the titles once, why should you have to do it again? Boring grind titles don't need to be done again.

In regard to this idea just like the other one.

Do people want the grind titles or the title benefits to be account wide? If the former work for it, if the latter I sign for it. There should be exemption or leeway for non primary characters in your account to gain the title benefits but not having the titles for those who want to work for titles.

All advantages given by titles (skills and effects) are to be made account-wide, and are based off the highest title earned by any character on the account.
Titles themselves are left alone, and must still be 'earned' by each individual character.
Ex: Your main character has Asura Rank 8. You make a new character. Their reputation points for Asura are 0, but can use any Asura skills they unlock at effectively Rank 8. If any character on the account gets rank 9, they then use the unlocked Asura skills at rank 9.
How does that sound? They would still need certain ranks on each individual character to get consumables, weapons, and armor (3, 4, and 5, respectively). This would work for Sunspear, Lightbringer, all 4 race reps in EotN, and the effects of Treasure Hunter and Wisdom (since Lucky already is account-wide). Is that agreeable?

This sounds good. As I said, I don't give a sheet about 'titles', I don't want my character to be weaker because he's fresh 20lvl.
How's your PUG only weekend idea?

[...] Update: It has been suggested that maxing these titles will be "too easy" now that you have 2-8 characters contributing towards the title. I now offer another suggestion to counter this: Make the Sunspear, Lightbringer, Asura, Deldrimor, Ebon Vanguard, and Norn titles scale to how many PvE characters you have. Heres some examples: 2 PvE characters: 1x higher cap (the same as the titles are now) 4 PvE characters: 1.5x higher cap 6 PvE characters: 2x higher cap 8 PvE characters: 2.5x higher cap I don't want to encourage Areanet to make these Titles more of a grind than they already are, so I kept the multiples low. But if I had my 8 characters contributing towards these Titles, I personally wouldn't mind higher caps on them. The other 4 titles already have ridiculously high requirements to max, so I left them out. This would also reduce the "time lost" for players who had already maxed titles on more than one or two characters. |
But generally: /signed to make some titles like the grind ones account based.

/signed or original suggestion
/notsigned for the update to the post
from the way i have interpreted the updated version, its a punishment for having more than one PvE character, regardless if all are contributing to the title or not, it should not affect the scale, at all.
Its leaning towards having one main character for PvE, which is the problem with the PvE title system in the first place. Multiple characters grinding for the same title with a higer cap, nearly gets rid of the point for the original idea. Say for example i wanted only Vanguard on my Necro, and Asuran on my mesmer~
Wait~ i have to grind more just because another character wants another track? It doesnt add up
But regardless, imho its a great idea on the non-updated version.

I'm not saying that I've been warned my thread would become merged, but I could see a mod quickly skimming this thread and tossing it into the other thread. |

NOTE: I wouldn't have a problem with any of these titles if they didn't have drastic effects on PvE skills and lockpicks. This isn't about unlocking Armor crafters. The fact that I am forced to grind for hours on end to have each of my 8 characters be the best possible is the reason I quit FFXI, and I never expected it from Guild Wars. When I first started Prophecies with my Warrior, Monk, Elementalist, and Necromancer, I expected once I hit max level, bought my 1.5k armor, and got a collectors weapon for my characters, everything past that would be purely vanity alone, and my characters would be based on my skill, not the hours I am able to dedicate to repeating my actions hundredfold. And I ask mods to not close/combine this with the "Make all grind-based titles account based" thread. These are two different suggestions to the same problem. |

It might help with a few other things aswell. Players who complain about the slow start to elona for example, if their new chars have the sunspear rank by default it might speed that process up a bit aswell.
Good idea

Could someone explain to me how Kind of a Big Deal would be implemented in with this idea?
What...is it when they hit level20 and their previously maxed titles are maxed?
Other than that, /SIGNED
