And yet you're sitting here "wasting" precious minutes on a forum dedicated to an online Role Play Game.

Hmm...

Same applies to hero title and zaishen title.

I'll wager you feel stupid now.

At a point, titles and especially GWAMM is almost the only goal left in the game, it's an achievement that you 'completed' gw,so whats the point of giving you an aura for it?

/unsigned, because
1) alot ppl have the title
2) chaos gloves give enuf light IMO

a Ron Burgundy emote would be cool, but a boss aura would be nice too.

Whats the point of getting new armor? Because you want to show off. Because you wanna look nice. Well its the same for the boss aura, it will give GWAMM ppls something to show of, something that makes their characters pretty.

As long as it's "toggleable" (with post-process effects or something similar) and does not show up whilst participating in PvP, I'm definitely all-in for this idea!

(And no, I don't have the title.)

And it's pretty sad that pvpers/pvers bicker over titles. To some it might be an achievement they worked hard at and want to show off. Not everyone does pvp enough or on the other hand not everyone does pve enough. Depends on what a person is into, therefore give each aspect of the game something to show off.

If ppl want to look nice and you think an aura would do that to you, take it in with texmod, But I dont c why you want to be the shiniest.
Sorry if I misunderstood you.

You can't give yourself an aura with texmod, since you never had a texture surrounding you to begin with.

Ive just done it in 2 ways: with shades or with all armors, etc(works very good)
But back ONtopic --> a-net is never going to add them, they're working on gw2 and it would take time to create new emotes(if its considered one)

Ahum, if you'd read the thread, it says it would be very hard. And it wouldn't work in diffrent areas and towns. And i am not gonna spend hours and hours to get that auro for every town and area, if i can get it with doing something i like to do. And btw, why not? Does it hurt you?

No, but it would annoy me. In most outposts more then half has the title, and as I experienced when doing it with texmod, it rather makes armors less seeable. So im still not convinced, just don't see a good point at it.

I have to say when I saw the thread title I thought to myself ohes noes another emote plx thread!!1 Then reading your post I was suprised and intrigued, I like the idea of it, it's different, screw the boring emotes an aura would be a lovely idea, something really exclusive for people with GWAMM!

Also, would the Aura be on only if you have your GWAMM title showing? I don't know about everyone else but I have a title I'm the most proud of achieving and I'd like people to see that title and that I have GWAMM at the same time with this Aura.

like you say it requires grinding....that therefore means no skill. fair enough niether does the Zrank, but that was introduced to give rich PvE players an emote rather than having to get a HA rank + i dont know anyone with GWAMM that isnt incredibly rich, and tbh u need to be fairly rich to attempt the title.

By that logic, every PvP emote after the bambi takes no skill (or should I say no more skill than it takes to get the bambi?) so they shouldn't exist, either.

I disagree.

Zaishen title gets an emote for clicking chests.

GWAMM requires some skill. Definitely deserves an emote more than zaishen title but too late for that now, I guess all we can do is hope that one day it happens.

gwamm requires more skill then cash, vanquishing, elite missions and the pvp titles took me way more time than get that 5mil.

Grind is not prestigious, and should not be encouraged or glorified. The addition of the zrank emote was idiotic, and this boss aura would be similarly idiotic.

So are people realising that wasting your life grinding pointless titles isn't worth a bunch of words under your name? That IS the reward you get. If you didn't think it was worth it, then don't get it. /notsigned

I think that those two responses sum up my opinion rather well, this title just says "I have no life" and I'd prefer not to have that sad fact make the outposts into living rainbows. /notsigned

Why? If you play gw 1 hour every day, for four years and you enjoy it. You still have a life i think. 7 hours a week isn't a lot and i am sure you can get that title by just playing 1 hour a day for 4 years.

Nope, im currently storming through my GWAMM#2.
It helps pass the time, and helps me forget about the horrible life i used to have before GW's.

It is worth pondering why the most prestegious title in the game has no emote.

I don't know what im doing with my Life!

Well that's just a stupid assumption. Besides, "life" has nothing to do with what we're discussing here, you're just trying to put others down to satisfy your own ego. Whenever anyone says, "wow you have no life" it's just plain rude and obnoxious, and the only reason I can think of for someone to say that is simply because they can't stand to see anyone else put in a huge amount of effort and dedication and reap a reward that they themselves can't get.

Just because you can't get it, doesn't mean others can't either. And just because you think whoever has GWAMM "has no life", doesn't mean that they don't deserve a reward.

Fireworks, dancing, tonics, spinning capes, ghost spawning, other title emothingies + glowing? Might as well just crash the game and save us all a headache.

Create a new event called turtle racing, first one to get to the storage wins!

They should make a emote for GWAMM that says in giant gold letters "I need to get a life" with an arrow pointing at your character.

I actually like the idea. I support a visual of some-sort for GWAMM. I personally do not have said title (yet) but it is something to work for IMO. Besides having a boss aura would be kind of cool (provided it is able to be toggled on and off).

Additionally, I think only GWAMM should have the special visual. A visual for anything but (i.e. KOBD, I'm Very Important, People Know Me, etc...) is just too ridiculous.

Any idiot can manage the PvP titles, given sufficient time and/or hilariously bad balance.

Let's replace the Hero title emotes with "I have no life" in big bold letters, and they get bigger with every rank in it. Hero does, after all, involve waaaay more grind.

I oppose this title from it's already ridiculous name for a start. It is also a title that can be reached in big part without a real effort from the player, i have seen too many people "hiring services" to get parts of this title already, i don't see why should that be rewarded.
