So Pre is due to have daily quests allowing LDoA achievable without hours and hours of death levelling.
I'll be sure to roll a new Pre toon for this, but I do have some sympathy for those who achieved it the harder way.

Yep, i'll be rolling a character for this. I find doing quests, even repetitive dailies, way more fun than uh...dying. Just have to decide on whether to make a Mesmer or Ele now.

Even more you can now achieve LDoA & LS! Amazing isn't it, it's a shame no one thought of it since yesterday! :P

I think people who got it will still be happy. Normally people who get it are rather mature.

Im so happy about this news. Every time i could i asked for this and now its almost here^^
My char is lvl 15 and i have done some death lvl sessions but i did not like gaming that way so my char was stuck in pre for 2,5 years now.
Im only curious about the quests. what amount of xp will we get. Hope not that much. and will there be rewards like zaishen coins where u can get higher armor pieces or so. Gold is useless in pre so i hope we dont get that from the quests.

And costumes in pre is something i hope they implement in ascalon with the HoM npc.

But we will see when the update is here.

There are a couple of threads about the Feature Build in Riverside.

See thread about developer updates on this forum. As for feeling sorry for the stuff the predecessors went through. I feel none, they did very little in the actual game most of the time, it was gather up charr, walk away for the night/day etc then kill them. Gather up, walk away again. Not really impressed with that.

But I am glad they are going to make it a bit easier to accomplish.

And finally, a good reason to go in parties in pre.

Now I wish the area was for parties of 4 since the beginning.

Finally makes sense. Legendary Defender never seemed appropriate as a title for dying over and over, not even defending yourself, much less ascalon.

One quest a day it is still going to take time.

I am annoyed everytime they make a title easier - who wants to play GW2 if you know that if you wait for 5 years they will have made the whole thing so easy you can do it in a week?

They should at least change the title name when they change a title so much.

They should have implemented a good way of getting LDoA when the introduced the title. Changing it now is fooling no-one - got to make it easy for the attention-deficit kids to get 30/50 so they buy GW2.

They should just give every char every title at creation and be done with it ^^

Actually they are just making this title harder! Actually having to do something instead of dying constantly is hardly considered easier.

This was an insane title to go for from the get go. There's insane difficult, or insane time, and this wasn't the first option.

yeah they could have just changed the name to legendary DEATH-leveler of ascalon and be done with it

but yeah might dust off my perma-pre characters and let them do something beside sync dancing.

Last time I checked, playing the game is harder than leaving it idle while you do something else. For all you know, the amount of time it takes to do enough dailies to get LDoA is longer than the time it took to get it deathlevelling.

This title isn't getting made easier, it's getting more interactive and more fun (this is good).
