I always thought that was pretty neat, even though I was never playing HoH - just seeing it as a side effect on the game through favor of the gods was good.

Makes quite a lot less sense to tie favor to titles. Favor of the gods for titles? I really dont care to get an announcement for Joe Schmo achieving said title. Holds even less interest to me than who had favor or which way favor was going. It actually was fun to see the tides of favor shifting while putting together a FoW team and waiting, seeing a PvP tam you knew take a win and you could assume they'd gain favor for you soon as they had done so in the past etc. That was actually quite fun. With the new system, its not like you desire to assemble a FoW team, so tell a bunch of people to run out an max a title. It just has no character - was all I was saying.
I couldnt agree more, I havnt done HoH since before factions came out, but was always looking forward to one day getting back into it once i had accomplished certain things in game. Update changed that though, I will still HA once in a while but that kind of pvp lost its appeal after the character of it was lost.

As for my contribution, Legendary Cartographer, Legendary Spearmarshal, Holy Lightbringer = 9 minutes.

Side Question: When I achieve titles It never says (on my screen) "the gods have extended thier favor". Is this only tacked on in ToA, Chantry, and Zin ku, etc. ?
I couldnt find a difinitive answer via guru, wiki, google, so sorry for the noob question. =P

The only max title I have ever achieved in the game is Legendary Survivor. I'll reach Legendary Spearmarshal soon though.

I got Legendary Skill Hunter & Legendary Spearmarshal seconds from eachother, plus Legendary Cartographer some months later, that's about it I think .. so 9.

Also the title achievements are shown in;

I haven't contributed anything really, I stopped title grinding when I realized that the only reason I was doing it was for an unknown reward in GW2. If I like one of the "heritage items" that you can get from having titles, I'll go back to GW1 and grind it to get it in GW2.
