I was just wondering if having emotes for maxed titles would be cool. And the /emote would match the title. The KoaBD title would be huge like the phoenix of fame. Or maybe just have emotes of each tier of KoaBD, that way it would be more worth the time and effort and would give PvE intensive people a way to get a special fame emote.

Just a thought....

Per tier of KoaBD might be good. I might even settle for every two tiers of KoaBD.

Generally though, this is kinda worthless to implement now. Maybe as a GW2 bonus, we could have more emotes based on what was transferred through HoM.

Ive been in support of this concept for over a year now. Theres been quite a few threads that mention this. /age, /sunspear, /lucky, /drunkard.... lots can be done.

Id like to see Luxon/Kurzick 'rank emotes' in particular... Especially with how SMALL an amount adds a trophy to the HoM- What is our purpose to continue the title track?

Oh, and with this hypothetical update should be the glorious fff-killing nerf.

fff is for lamers.... sorry to digress, but its true.

/rank was (imo) a bad addition to the game in the first place.

HA rank is spammed enough, the last thing we need is a bunch of elitest PvE'rs running around spamming their stupid emotes.

Agreed, and make it better than the Hero title track's emotes.

So when one of those elitist jackasses comes to PvE and runs around flashing their fame emote, we have an emote to flash back at them.

I don't see the point of all the people complaining that there should be emotes for every title.

Seriously, there's other ways to grow your e-peens.

Why steal the /rank emotes?
Why not create new ones?

People are bored of the /rank emotes, and trust me when I say, the phoenix emote looks ugly. And it would motivate PvE players to grind/play more, to reach a NEW freshly created emote, no-one has.

Keep custom emotes for pvp. Moreover, it has been suggested many times.
Grinding needz no skill.

As opposed to fame grinding for emotes requiring skill?
the only title you can actualy carry that arguement for would possibly be champ, as it's exclusive and competitive enough that you can't fake your way in. HA rank is not the only sign of PvP skill, in fact, it's the only PvP title you can effectively buy your way into.
all the same, /notsigned. But because emotes have already become too common as it is, not because HA is the only area of PvP deserving enough for it's own emote.

I disagree. It's not the elite PvE'rs you have to worry about: it's about the immature, 10 year olds that leech off of their guildies and friends, gaining titles they really don't deserve.

Shing Jea, Kaineng, Kamadan, Old Ascalon, all the major outposts would be overflooded by useless emotes. heck, they are already. so why would you want to add to that problem?

Hero title tracks are one of the easier titles to earn. I would like to see the emotes for PvE players too - I wonder what the Wisdom or Treasure Hunter emotes would look like if they were added?

Well, thats half-true. Imo 80% of the HA-ers get their ranks with pugging/guild HA-ing (like me), but there are always fame farmers and stuff.. And champion is overrated imo.

I hate when the ranks come out after winning a match. Might as well just talk trash on the chat.

It calls competition. That's the difference between human and animal. If you can not stand that, go play other games and/or play other aspect of the game. Thank you!

Oh really? Leeching off guildies and 10 years old. Nice joke. Do you know most of those who get r6 MAX tittle have done it mostly by THEMSELVE? And most of them are 20+ years old. And sorry DON'T DERSERVE? Nice joke btw!

Oh really? So a bunch of PvP'rs running around spamming their emote isn't stupid? What's the different between PvPr and PvEr? Oh sorry by playing PvP, it means you are in higher place in GW than the PvEr? You know what? When you play this game, you START as PvEr. It does not mean a thing! Grow up, learn how to think critically and think for others too. Thank you!

To all: Btw, for those who think I'm a PvEr because I support PvE. Sorry I'm not, I'm more of a PvPr. I currently have 4 ranked accounts (r11, r10, 2 r5.) NONE of them have more than 2 max tittle. And I wish my time is spending on PvE instead of the stupid and meaningless PvP emotes.

For all the experience in mission, mapping and knowledge of the game, PvEr deserves to have an emote. For all the time they spend? GW is PvE/PvP after all!

Players with maxed titles should receive both emotes, and Everlasting Tonics. They deserve those good rewards for having put in the time/energy/effort to max their titles. Especially for every rank of KOABD.

Oh great, I can see it now..

We already have;

LFG Balanced Spike Guild Group, R9+ Hero ONLY!!! 6 / 8

Then it'd be...

LFG Vanquishing Jahai Bluffs, R3+ KoABD ONLY!!! 5 / 8

People who vanquish don't ever acquire vanquish partners by spamming in town for PUG players. And chances are those with KOABD, or higher ranks of KOABD, never PUG at all.

So what you have said there is not something that would ever actually occur, and therefore, a moot point.

You wish, think a bit more please. You know why? Because PvP = REPEATED MAPS. How about PvE? You finish it ONCE, that's it. Though I got your concept. But it ALREADY exists at the VERY low level compare to PvP. In DoA, LF r5+ Lightbringer ofr LB pt farm. The emote WON'T change nor effect ANY of those.

I did.


But I think that not all titles 'need' emotes.
There should be one emote for all PvP titles(not only Hero) and one for all PvE titles.

Yes, we all started as PvEers, but there are some who sit in there constantly. About 1/4 (ish) of players graduate into PvP where it takes real skill to play in. I'm sorry I don't feel that playing against computer controlled AI using a C + Space tactic is harder than playing against a real, living, thinking, breathing human being.

In all seriousness, how many prepubescent 12 year olds make it in high-end GvG guilds? None that I know of, that's because they're all in PvE. I also prefer PvP because (generally) you don't have to deal with people like that. If anyone is stupid, immature, or just plain bad, they won't last in PvP very long (except for AB, which is hardly PvP, and maybe RA).

No, I don't feel that Hero should have an emote. The Hero title is more revolved around hours played than actual skill. The only title that may deserve a rank is Champion. It's the only title left that takes some amount of skill to get.

Giving emotes to PvE-peen grinders is just a bad idea.

Or you could just laugh at them for thinking that a PvP title has any bearing in PvE.

Just because you're bad at PvP and can't get r3 doesn't mean you should have an emote.

I can ask the same thing, "how many prepubescent 12 year olds have beaten a campaign in hm?". Not one either, and don't go starting this bs about you needing skill to get into pvp. Once you know the basics and have the builds all it takes is grind for the title and a little luck when starting out.

Some people choose to spend their time in pvp while others spend it in pve, and only a few do both well, but this does not mean that a pver cant pvp or that a pvpr cant pve. Anyone with koabd 6 can easily pvp along side the r9 hero's, all it would take is a build change.

/signed just for Koabd titles.

Good point.

The PvE ones should be better, not equal.
