Change the Treasure/Wisdom HoM requirements

I understand that when the titles were character-based, it required that the character has 10,000 high-end chests opened/gold items identified, respectively. Thats because all character based titles are required to be maxed out before being able to show on HoM. Well, now it's account-based. And with the exception of the above titles, the account-based titles do not need to be maxed out for HoM displays. Personally I don't like grind and perhaps Linsey can look into it to change the title requirements to rank 3 or 4. It's just a thought. Anyone agree?

So you want it to be lowered from 7 to either 3 or 4 for display at the HoM? Not completely sure what you're asking. I can live with that I suppose, but not sure about why it would be needed. Lucky/Unlucky are only rank 2 required for HoM display, so I can see a use for lowering the TH/Wisdom requirements for HoM.

even tho i have them both maxed anyway, i agree with OP. seeing as lucky/treasure/wisdom are all linked, and lucky can be added at a lower tier, it would make sense that treasure/wisdom should be the same.

I agree since these titles are now account-wide and similar in difficulty to the lucky/unlucky and kurz/luxon titles that do not have to be maxed to be displayed. The requirement should be dropped down to rank 4 or 5 for being displayed.

I agree too. Compared to other titles, maxing those two takes a shitload of work.

I think adding them at rank 5 makes more sense. These titles are not necessarily grind tiles if you are playing the game. After rank 5 though you have to farm them.

For consistency's sake, this could be changed. However, when you think about it, the change from making the titles character based to account based made the title easier to achieve for anyone with points in either track on more than one character, and it also made utilizing the bonus from both titles more convenient.

And now you're asking for the requirement to be even easier. Why? It seems totally unnecessary.

not only the time farming for the money,chest running and farming for ids takes alot of time which most people dont have the time to spend.lowering its requirement for 2,5k or at least 5k chests/golds for HoM 'd be nice.

/unsigned Because its only easier now since they changed it to max it. And it helps the economy staying atleast something because people still buy goldies for 7 = 5k. And it isn't fair for the people who wanted the Stat in they HoM and maxed it. So dont say that things need to change at the HoM it is as it is and just go for something in it. It doesnt matter that something is harder then other things to get. Otherwhich they can just make every title atable at rank1 ... ^^

They can better give us those Rare minipets noone can get since they cost 16mil or more.

i can prolly live with them lowering it to tier 6 which is 5k chests seeing that it takes another 5k chest to max it but any lower and i would have to disapointed as now u can open chests with any character on ur account and id golds which was a pain before i could only do it with one character.

there is no reason to change this. The title has already been made easier to max out by making it account wide. It is not as difficult difficult to max these titles out now that it doesnt matter which of your characters you are playing on when you open chests or ID gold items. Sure it takes some time to max out, its supposed to. Titles are supposed to be something you work for in order to have bragging rights in your HoM, if we continue to lower the requirements to display more titles more easilly, they will then all be worthless. It just seems like this is a bit of a QQ thread, people dont want to max the title becuase it takes some effort, so want the display requirement lowered so they can display it without actually completing it. (and for the record, no I do not have either maxed out yet, I am R5 on both)

Sorta neutral on this. Not necessarily bcoz it has become relatively easier than before, but, maybe bcoz one can treat as a vanity title to put in HoM. Either way, I don't plan to max them.

Title was already made easy enough with account-wide change. No need to make it any easier.

Except that's not the point. The point is that it's still a more difficult title to put in your Hall of Monuments than some of the other account based titles as mentioned in previous posts. None of the other account based titles require a max rank to be put in because typically account based titles have much higher maximum values.

I'm rather neutral on this. I've got r4 in both and closing in on r5 quickly, but the titles shrine is quite easy to fill anyway. It would be nice, sure, to not have to grind these out to put them in there, but the amount of work it would take vs. the convenience/enjoyment of it... nah.

It's still a long way for me for either of those, but still

/not signed.

They got made account-based which was a great change, but the requirements are based on a character-title and account based titles should have HIGHER requirements than character ones if different at all.
I know some of requirements are absurdly low, like the Kurzick/Luxon ones, but it doesn't mean all should be as easy as those.

I see how making these titles account wide would lead some to assume that it should be lowered as the other account wide ones are. However, it is easier to get the titles now since you can play on any toon and still work toward this goal. Sweet, drunkard, and party animal used to be allowed at rank 1 in the begining and they were changed to only be displayed at max. This is how it should be with these as well. If they continually make everything in the game lowered for the lazy people, then there is no reason to have the trophies at all. They would be meaningless, and might as well just do everything for you. Hell why not just hand you a full HoM while they are at it, just for playing the game? How about they just give you the title of GWAMM because you maxed 15 titles, or just did half of the requirements for 30 of them? Anything worth having requires a little bit of work.

Just adding it to the HOM....no other benefit so why not? The title can be displayed anywhere...people have to be in your HOM in order to see the statue.

Well, all the other account wide titles can be added with much less rank, so I don't see why should this one be an exception, considering how it takes quite a lot of time unless you dedicate yourself only to chest runs.

If you play casually, playing missions and not looking for chests, you won't see much more than 3..9 chests per hour. Around rank 3 or 4 should be enough to add to the HoM.

Not signed. I personally don't think you should be able to display any non-max title at all with the exception of PVP titles.

If you want the statue, get the maxed title. If you don't want to earn it, then you don't deserve it. It's quite useless anyways, so I don't see what the fuss is all about.
