This is just a little suggestion...when you go vanquish, ss/lb farm, etc, i would like it if one party member gets the bounty, everyone gets the bounty

Neat suggestion, BUT:

ss/lb is prone to afk-leech and only thing that keeps leechers from "phone, brb" afking everything is need to take LB bounty.

It would make it work only for everyone in compass range.

when i read the title i thought you were gonna say something about the bonuses that you get every 25 kills, which would be great, but this as Zwei said it would just be giving leechers a life line.

I would /Sign it but Zwei hit the nail on the head, but it would do a favour for lazy people like me.

Just for comfort.
It would make the game more enjoyable since it's most certainly not fun if you forget to pick the bounty while everyone in the team does ... :S

I don't mind that, would help people that tend to forget getting the bounty... BUT!
ONLY as long as [REVERBERANT]YOU-DON'T-EARN-POINTS-FROM-ENEMIES-THAT-DIE-OUT-OF-RADAR-RANGE.[/REVERBERANT].
Otherwise not, since that would be too much leech-friendly.


But what should really be the same is bonus bounties in EotN.

I completely and wholly agree with this.

Besides that, r8 for LB, 10 for SS, and 9 & 10 for EotN rep are require bounties to only be obtained in HM. If you go into NM and someone picks up a bounty while ordinaly someone else of higher rank couldn't, then the higher one would still get the bounty. It'd take a lot longer in NM, but for people who don't wanna go to the trouble of HM and are willing to spend some time on it, I think they'd do that.

What? No!

That's out of the question! It was implied that what the OP suggest is: "One character talks to the Bounty giver NPC, all gain the effect they would if they talked to him."
So those that get just 'Master bonuses'(EoTN) or nothing at all(Nightfall) won't get point-earning bounties. That's comon sense!

That's what I thought too, but now that I know what was actually meant I would say no, would be too easy for people to leech. Now maybe if they already had the bounty and everyone in the party got the same blessing after every 25 kills it would work, but even then it could still support leeching. /notsigned

Simply because at certain points people WANT to keep their GW:EN titles below a certain point (ie, people will try to get as close as possible below rank 8 and then turn in a normal mode hero book to boost right up near rank 9). Being forced over a title threshold that you didn't want to doesn't sound fair.

Hrrmn...

One thing I would like to see is for the random bounties to be applied to the whole party rather than just one person. It can be annoying in a group when, for example, person A is looking to get a boss bounty while person B is trying to keep a rampage going... and everyone BUT A wants to leave the bosses for last so they'll be worth as much as possible.

/Agree.

The rampaging Leeroys can get annoying, especially when they die and you ask why they just aggro'd all the map and their reply is 'I was keeping my rampage for uber points'.

Meh. Nice thought, just don't think it'd work though. As Kanyatta said too, there'd be a spam of new title hunters looking for P-levelers.

isn't it true that in EOTN, everyone gets different bonus ? if its like this then the chances of getting the boss hunt rewards will be relative lower when you pug, compare to the system now? isn't it better that everyone has different bonus rewards? and it rewards everyone right?

i suggest that in nightfall, when you speak to the guy at the shrine, it will give every player a different reward type, which I think would be better, so you don't have to kill 100 margonites to get to the margonite bounty giving npc :P
