the most prestigious title?

i'd say Gamer, because you cant earn lotsa points and only during a few days each year, we dont know which tier is the max one, and the game will be 100% dead before someone maxes this

all other titles are either easy BS, just like Survivor, Protector etc or take lotsa time, but you can get them in the end

To me, no title is really "prestigious". If you have the time, you can get whatever title you want. The only thing that makes one title "better" than the next, is the amount of time spent on it.


And on that note: *happily flaunts his Canthan Protector title* ^_^

PvP
Champ = r6 (or Old school champ any rank 1500+ rating)
Hero = R12
Glad = r8

PvE
Legendary Guardian
LDA


Vanq = Ursan
Cartograph = Texmode
Skill Hunter = Buying/farming tomes
Wisdom/Treasure = Farming, Then Buy Unid/Keys
Drunk/Sweet = Farm
Lucky/Unlucky = AFK Ring
Survivor = Farming
Sunspear/Lighbringer/Azura/Norm/Delver = Joke right??

"Pre-nerf" is incorrect. It's pre-buff.

PvE or PvP, it's grind. I feel sorry for the people who earned their titles in a respectable way - there's no title for that.

This is very true. QFT.

But I think for PvE; Legendary Guardian and Legendary Vanquisher are the only ones that impress me stand alone, but God Walking Amongst Mere Mortals (6) is impressive as well.

I think at some point, contrary to what some people say, PVP also becomes time>skill. I think most titles are time>skill after a certain point.

I value gladiator the most.

Vanquisher and Treasure Hunter tracks - opening 10k chests no matter how you managed it - my char would give you a bow if I saw it. But as many other posters have said, don't do it to try to impress others - do it for yourself, cause a bow is all you'll get for your efforts to show off.

Ha! I didn't even know those tomes counted towards skillhunter. No one will ever recognize my long hunts in the wilds.

Same thing for Legendary survivor, wich i earned wile just playing. Farming is not playing to me.

In my opinion, any title that takes a long time to get is prestigious to me. Saviour of kurzicks/luxons = probably a good few months of nonstop farming. So it takes a lot of dedication to max it out. Drunkard does take some time, but can be gotten as quickly as sweet tooth pretty much.

Vanquishing, master of the north is a decent one. Hm dungeons can be a pain to some with hero/hench.

Even some pvp ones are nice, except for the ha one. Because everyone did iway or something and now anyone below r3 can't join a group to get any fame.

Definitely 'prestigious' is what matters to you personally, not what impresses people. People are never impressed. I remember a guildie got Tyrian GMC a couple of days after titles were introduced (she'd always explored so she didn't have much to go) and she got SO many whispers about how she was a haxxor, etc. It's whatever matters to you.

I'm most proud of my carto and skill hunter, which I did 'properly'. Likewise when I get my vanq and guardian I will know I haven't ursaned a second of it. Counts for me, not for anyone else.

Personally I love seeing the maxed out KOABD ones on people.

We wish. 166 hours plus compared to clicking a lot. Except that... we're still clicking a lot, just with three minute intervals.

Legendary Master of the North is a pain to get-I don't see many others that have it running around.
Beyond that, any other HM title. The HM missions require a bit skill and vanquishing requires skill and patience.

pvp titles dont impress me since pvp people have nothing else to do but work towards those.
the masters of the north titles are impressive for now....later, most likely not.

a sin with leg survivor makes me look.

most of the others not so, though we dont really know how people got their titles, like my few--I did the hard way, cartographer without textmod (cant use it on my computer), so I have done it the hard way. Prots for the most part I guess someone could leech to get them, but seeing as my main monk has those---usually monks dont get to leech much. Still working on acquiring enough alcohol and sweets to even think about clicking for days for those. (dont have the plat to buy them).

but titles once had meaning, now they only have meanings to those who got them, and then not even much of a meaning other than a line of text.

The rest, regardless of how many people did them the 'hard' way can be bought or /roll or simply leeched these days which has devalued them beyond meaning.

sweet tooth and drunkard titles are for addictees, same as fame and gladiator titles. to obtain high ranks you must eat sleep and shi.... gw
pardon my french
the only titles that catch my eye the ones that take skill.if i see really impressive titles i know that guy aint got no job nor life...
it doesnt take a wise guy to determine if someone is good. just watch how they play..and also i find tetris more enjoyable than maxing ranks
Lgendary Survivor is the only title i respect when i see it...

Guardian may seems impressive when you are new to the HM stuff, after a couple of tries, i thought this was almost impossible. After a few tweaks of Heroes skills, such as using more wards/prot and using more interrupts in their builds, now i am amazed to see how easy it is for more than a half of those missions. I managed to clear all Tyrian missions and more than half of NF ones at 1st try. Vanquisher aint that hard, just depends .. For Tyria, it's more long than hard, Cantha is ok and NF can be a pain if you are not careful when facing fireballs-happy kournans or desolation undeads ^^
But with the use of some consumables, it aint that hard

Master of the North, that, is another story

I agree with this statement. I personally don't care what title others display. Play for your own enjoyment, not the approval of others.

r6+ champ, anything lower without an accompanying impressive guild tag (of which there are few) is probably trash/double champ weekends/bspike/ritspike.

Max wisdom and treasure hunter just because the amount of time/cash invested astounds me. Same with max Kurz and Lux. Lux especially because it can't be farmed as easily, but even with the easy farm, Kurz takes forever I imagine. r3+ unlucky and lucky impress me, mainly because I like the names of the titles at those levels . r15 hero would be impressive as well.

I've got 9 max titles on my Warrior, and 3 max on my ranger and for the longest time all I would wear on both was Protector of Tyria. I've had it the longest and the one I enjoyed getting the most. No title to me is prestigious because if you have time and a high enough credit limit you can have pretty much every title in the game and have no skill at all (getting high pvp titles would be tough if you leeched, but with enough money I sure you could do it). Protector of Tyria is by no means prestigious, but I like Tyria the best so that is what I wear, and as far as I am concerned that is what titles are for (maybe if I ever finish getting Guardian of Tyria I'll wear it instead, just a couple pain in the ass missions I am to lazy to do).

He meant he's the first person he's seen with that title, he has many other maxed titles.

And 10,000 drunkard in pre makes me laugh. I'll never understand the perma pre's. I think it's more impressive to stay there that long than anything else. I can't even get to level 7 without yelling THIS IS BLOODY BORING AS HELL
