the most prestigious title?

I'm far more impressed with PVP titles than PVE, as I see PVE titles as less skill and more time while PVP titles you won't have them unless you have the skill.

PvP: Champion, Hero
PvE: KoaBD, Legendary Guardian, Legendary Survivor (if the person gained it not by doing HFFF or boxing that is)

The coolest title I know of = Slayer of Imps 
Just kidding
Now the serious reply.
PvE: This ones hard... umm.. hehe.. Think it must be God Walking Amongst Mere Mortals. But as you need like 25 maxed titles of whatever, I'll take one of the other ones
Legendary Guardian i preety cool I think sounds cool anyway *roll eyes*
PvP: Definetly (or however it's spelled) the Hero title track. Who doesn't want to be a "Hero"
But this is just what I think.

First 6 hours a day is a rate not an absoulte amount of time. For example 6 hours/day for 3 years is a lot more time than 6 hours/day for a week. Simple fact.
Secondly, maxing out your hero title is HA takes a lot more than just time, it takes a lot of skill, coordination, and dedication. A whole lot more than any title in PvE can ever require.
A simple proof is not a single player in GW has an R15 hero title at this time. Compare that to the masses with "GWAMM".
I rest my case.

and try sway all day, no skill required... you still get fame for winning first 3 maps though.

All titles are grinding. The most prestigious would have been Champion if it was still 1500 and lots of resets, but when it got changed to 1200 the awesomeness of it just got taken away.

If you put 6 hours into PuGing every day you'll eventually get a wolfy but probably not much more.
If you put 6 hours into guild groups, that's obviously a bit different.
Want to know why? Because one team has skill, the other doesn't.

I'm impressed by champ and hero titles. Well, "impressed" isn't the right word, really, as even hero (12) isn't exceptionally rare anymore. They're just notable.

any of the crazy high maxed pve titles are pretty impressive imo, also high ranked glad titles. KoaBD 5 and up is nuts, aswell as the vanquishing titles. its not that they are difficult to get, but that i could never see myself putting in that amount of effort over soemthing so tedious/boring

Takes 5-10 minutes per fight, 3 fights, plus an extra 5 minutes for the Zaishen and wait times between fights. So let's go with 30 minutes per round. That's 5 fame in 30 minutes. That's 6000 minutes = 100 hours playing HA (not including group formation times) to get rank6, 466.5 hours for rank9, and 2160 hours for rank12. I think it's fair to say that high Hero ranks require some measure of skill in order to reasonably achieve them. You could earn FoW armor farming mantids on Shing Jea island, but I doubt many people do that either.

Basically, I consider getting r9 with dumb grinding to be flat out impossible.

Dumb grinding...
u mean like Iway and all kinds of 3.2.1... spike... ranger, rit... whatever... thats dumb grinding... and some ppl got even r12 with that u know who u are... and start flaming... now...
exploiting imba skills before they are nerfed and gaining massive amount of fame by that... there is no skill there...
There is just no skill in those builds... just mashing buttons... like ursan... excuse me but it is like that... i mean they get even to hoh if they dont run into any normal guild... ask any of the players that play balanced and/or gvg's in the early days... when we had prophecies only...
And thats how u farm pvp hero rank... easy... afcourse its impossible for solo players... of newbies... or any1 who started playing gw a year ago or so... but ppl had very high ranks lot before even factions came out... ppl in a competent guild... or even one that know to copy a build and practice it over and over again...
i have some friends from my town... they are a little retarded... no really are like 2 left hands... like the worst players u ever saw at pvp or pve... type of guys that run 1on1 on mesmer with their mending wamos and are convinced they will win... those type... they copyed other ppls builds including some that our guild gave them... they all are r9 and even 2 are r10... they just played insane amount of time... 6-9 hrs a day... 3 times got to hoh and lost... and they have r9-10... every time i see them in ha... i remember that EVERYTHING CAN BE GRINDED... they really didnt understand what they were playing... they memorized how... and who does what... and went with it...

PvP title: Close to max Champion *or whatever the GvG title is* seeing how that is the hardest to work on in PvP in my opinion.

incorrigible ale hound. Sure it doesn't take gameplay skill, but it takes dedication, effort, and a good bit of attention to detail to perform your tasks as well as keep the drunk going. If you sit in town with a click-bot...maybe not so much. But if you get the title while doing other things....definitely in my book as one of the higher-up PvE titles.
Legendary Guardian is another good one simply because many mission bonuses /masters are dependent on speed/coordination, and having faster enemies with more armor/power/health/damage dealing than the mission was originally intended to have, all the while having smaller party sizes in many of them compared to the enemy level....oy. Great Northern Wall...huge enemy groups at times, 4 party size, and 25% faster run on the charr chasing you at the end. "Charge!" ?

when the "farmer's line" of titles are intro'd they will be the absolute cream of the crop.

The titles I like are the level 7 Treasure Hunter and Wisdom titles. Even if someone ebayed the gold for Wisdom and bought the unidentifieds from botters, it still sticks out like a sore thumb. 10,000 rare IDs and chests opened. DAYYYUM. I agree and disagree. On one hand, some players earned their wins in a truly competitive way and win matches with top 20 guilds. On the other hand some people farm lower ranked guilds with spiritway. |
HOw do u farm lower ranked guilds, to get a point both guilds have to have 1200 rating and up, meaning top 150ish

Most pvp titles are impossible to get unless you have a decent guild or have been playing on Guildwars for years. Getting accepted into HA teams are near impossible if u do not get a decent team from ur guild. Or maybe you can get urself in as a monk.

The titles that most impress me are the ones such as the Vanquishing Titles, or Skill Capping titles, or Protector titles that most often indicate that the wearer has actually done something (although even they could be "leeched".) The silly ones, such as the Sweetooth and Drunkard titles are just for the kiddies and don't impress anyone really. Cartography titles are somewhere in between - you do have to actually do something to get them, but it takes more grind than ability. PKM |

I have to agree that titles are important to those who have them Obviously people who pvp alot ( and i'm not one of them yet because people are really mean to "newbs" and our guild was previously tiny and mainly just me and the bf) the pvp titles are important
Personally skill hunuter titles are a it right now. I have one...tyrian..random boss spawn mean mega pain...and i thought about the elite tome...but couldn't quite bring myself to do it...so it's sort of a badge of honour for me right now. Legendary quardian is right up there too
my props off to those pvpers who have maxed out their titles...i really and truly appreciate the skill assoiated with that type of play...hopefully i won't suck at it for too much longer

Champion title is most prestigious... you can farm fame... you can't farm champ points ( but you actually can in good guilds )

If so then that backs my point that PvP titles will always be more prestigious than anything PvE has to offer. And if you agree on that point too, then there is no point in continuing this discussion as we both have reached an agreement.
