Make "Kind Of A Big Deal" (Maxed titles rank) account wide

Why make Kind of a Big Deal (KoaBD) - Maxed titles rank account wide?

Reasons:

1. This title is neither an exclusively PvE or PvP title, it combines/tallies both (PvE + PvP) and thus reflects the acheivement of a player instead of a character (PvP titles might not have been earned by that character displaying his/her KoaBD).

2. It will allow title grinding to be spread across account as one's different characters can grind different titles instead of having one character (of one profession) do everything.

3. It doesn't cheapen any of the grind titles (Koabd keeps tally of maxed titles and is not a grind title itself), as the present titles can still remain as individual character-based or account wide.

4. We still need to farm certain titles for each character (like Sunspear, Lightbringer, Norn,Asuran etc.) to meet PvE related requirements like area access and armor crafting etc. for our individual characters.

5. Repeatedly maxing the same title for different characters should be a choice (not everyone has the time to do that for all their characters). We still have to max it on atleast one character. Some titles will still need to done on one character (like Protector and Guardian titles, to get Legendary Guardian).

6. This game has 10 fun professions to play, don't limit us to using just one to grind titles.

7. Mutually exclusive titles like Defender of Ascalon & Legendary Survivor will still be seperate on charaters but not penalise the player account-wise in terms of maxed title grinding.

8. KoaBD titles has absolutely no effect gameplay-wise, it is just for display has no skills or 'aura' benefits so it will not give newly created characters unfair advantages.

9. "God Walking Amongst Mere Mortals" does not count itself as part of no. of maxed titles, thus will not increase the no. of max titles an individual character has.

10. It was mentioned our titles & achievements will be recorded account-wide and transferred to GW2 for benefits.

11. It is already 'account-wide' display-wise in the Hall of Monument, so there is no reason why KoaBD shouldn't be officially account wide too (all it will do is let all our characters' Hall of Monument display the same Winged-Armor statue in the middle).

12. As small perk, those with KoaBD or higher don't have to switch characters just to show their friends around their Halls or display their KoaBDs.

Thank you for reading and hopefully support

Only thing I want to see account wide is sweets/drunk. I hate having to use my holiday cons stupidly all at once on one char, and never use on any other char.

But /notsigned, when I see a r6 para I say to myself "Wow, I hate my para" Because if you can just hop to any character, i.e. 55 monk for Ruins of Morah, or 600/smite for Hidden city vanquish, it takes away a lot of the challenge of doing it the regular way.

It punishes people with duplicate titles on multiple toons. Having the HoM account wide is fair enough as it stands.

Anything that lessens grind is fine by me.

Don't see a problem with it unless people that have already gotten it don't want others to get it.

and the above will be the whole reason for anyone not wanting the various titles to be account wide.

as far as i 'm concerned, the only two titles that shouldn't automatically be account wide are survivor and legendary defender of ascalon. even the "storyline titles" (sunspear/lightbringer) ought to be account wide.

you've ground them out once, should be enough.

Absolutely not. If a guy gets KoaBD on ten characters he deserves to display it on all of his ten toons, while a guy with one KoaBD doesn't deserve to show it on ten toons because it belies his accomplishments. I don't get why you ignore that fact. Its already stupid my pvp toon is a grandmaster treasure hunter lets not screw up the entire system!

I don't really care either way, though I do think that more titles should be account wide.

absolutely /signed

/notsigned

its unfair for the ppl that got maxed koabd at many toons at the same a/c /=

How will making KoaBD account wide reduce grind?

/Notsigned...
Its not supposed to be a title thats easy to get.
its not supposed to be fast or easy.
its supposed to be a Challenge,if that means grind, so be it.
If you feel like being Lazy, Simply dont do it.
But for Heavens sake, DONT MAKE KIND OF A BIG DEAL ACCOUNT WIDE

KoBD is not suppose to be an easy title to get. Hell it's easy right now, and since you can't get it, you want it to be easier.

not signed, if u want it on several toons then u gotte do it on all toons

Yep, it's enough of a do things over and over (aka grind) fest as it is anyway.

Some of you claim it makes KoaBD cheaper and easier to get. What I proposed was to make it register account wide as it tallies the different max titles on a single account.

It's not easier to get in anyway for a player, they still have to grind for those titles the way it is now just be able to use other professions as well.

My concern is many players (including my friends and myself) end up almost always using the same character to do everything in PvE and even while resting in towns/outposts (party/ale/sweet). Only in PvP do some switch around characters, which gives account wide titles.

I just don't see why players have to be forced to limit themselves to playing one single character most of the time outside PvP, inorder to grind for Maxed title rank ranging from KoaBD to GWAMM.

Normally you have 1 character you play more then others.

Because playing one character is part of the challenge, if you could simply hop on a sin to perma titles for a say, ritualist, how is that not easier.

KoaBD isn't mean to be easy.

Yes, normally most have one favourite. However, that doesn't you should be limited to play only one.

If you are talking about earning perma-ble/solo-able titles, people actually hitch free rides from runners for many of those titles and do basically nothing (regardless of which profession).
If we let people have more choice in professions, they might actually try to perma or 600 etc. themselves than hitch and leech
