Should LDOA be made account wide? i.e. Should Paragons, Assassins, Ritualists, and Dervishes be given access to a title that they currently can't attain? Should Older characters from prophecies that have already seared be given access to a title they currently can't obtain?

No, just as my Pre Searing Ele can't have defeated Shiro and conquered the Lich and attained Protector of Cantha and Tyria, so my Assassin can't have frolicked in the fields of Ascalon before the Searing.

No. Now that you can add it to the HoM without leaving pre, I'd rather remove it from characters that leave pre, so Propehcies characters can't have one extra title once they leave, making LDoA exclusive to pre.

Despite I don't like prophecies, it's start is much harder and slower than other campaigns', so I think those ppl should be rewarded. You have enough chances to gain GWAMM.

Only under one condition and that is that ldoa is removed from pre the conditions for gaining it are made as difficult/time consuming as the other similar titles.

Sadly it is far too late for that to happen

why?

the rate things are going, all titles should just be handed over at character creation, none are actually any work anymore anyway

I totally agree. While were at it, why don't we rework society in real life too so that when a member of a family becomes, say, a Doctor, then other members of his or her family can also be called Doctors.

God, people can be whiny. It's getting worse and worse. Ever since Anet started to make things easier, people are bitching things are still too hard.

No, No, No.

Play the goddamn game.

no, and unlike the "no the game should be as challenging and hard (if you call it hard) as possible, or newer profs that shouldn't get it (cuz i'd like to have a rit in pre), my reason is a bit more personal toward the title
my reason: no, cuz it should be for that character which deserves it, in other words, a char which did something to gain that title, even if they would (and they wont) make pre possible for newer profs i'd say the same

so yea, its not about that it might not fit in the lore or the thought that people think GW is too easy, its just that that one char got it, and so it should be the only one to wear that title

so, just try and gain it by playing pre on that one char
i could say i think its a personal title, unlike kurz/lux, treasure hunt and wisdom (dont care about un/lucky), cuz those are made for the player, not the chars, thats how i see it

Ok, so by making LDoA acountwide, people are magically going to have LDoA on every acount? If your post doesn't make sense, don't post it.

Every non-PvE skills based title (So exceptions are lightbringer, Sunspear and all EYTN titles except master of the north) should've been made acount wide a long time ago.

Anet realized this with the Chest titles, and every other title that was made acount wide, so doing this for LDoA is only natural. Allow us to create a character, get the title, dedicate it to HoM and allow every character to see and show the title. It doesn't matter who you got LDoA with, as long as you got it...

I see LDoA more of a kind of protector/guardian title.
So doesn't really make any sens to me to make it account wide...

I dont see anything wrong in this, from a storyline perspective there's nothing to stop a Canthan or Elonian character from having visited Ascalon before the searing. And the title is allready completely devalued anyhow now

Ewnoplz. As stated by others above, it doesn't make sense and there are enough titles out there for you to g et GWAMM without getting LDOA. I'd rather see Drunkard/Party/Sweet made accountwide tbh.

Yeah, i'm gonna have to disagree with making it account wide, just doesn't fit it all.

And as mentioned before, we have the option to add it to hom IN pre.

Why not make it account wide? I am not going to use the LDoA toon after I achieved it.

And no one else is going to make a second one because of the HoM.

LDoA should become account wide only if every other title does too.
My pre-searing character deserves to be Canthan Cartographer and Holy Lightbringer.

What the hell? Hell no, esp if other char's aren't from proph. Its just not right, if you want it to be account wide, please delete all your characters, remake them in proph, obtain LDOA on all chars, cept assassins, dervs, paragons, and rits, just don't bother with those.

I voted yes to have some positive benefits for guild wars....

Eliminate Front-Loaded Titles
When your new or creating a fresh character you should be able to play the story line and worry about titles later. Not feel a pressure to stay in pre-searing to level 20 before enjoying the storyline or be out a title permanently. With account-wide access you play your character through the storyline than roll a throw-away character to add in the title to your character at your chosen time.

Eliminate Stifled Profession Variety
A new person should not having to choose between a profession that best appeals to them or a profession that gives them a +1 title advantage. This creates a stagnation of variety. That person should be able to choose any profession without a disadvantage for choosing one and not another.

Eliminate the Older Character disadvantage
People that played through pre-searing in the intended way before the March 3rd, 2011 update were put at a disadvantage by allowing the +1 to titles for newly created prophecies characters or people that abused the death leveling mechanic. It's unreasonable to ask for a veteran player to delete a main with for example 40 titles to attain LDOA. Allowing that person to roll a new throwaway character to get that title for their main would be much more reasonable. As it stands now LDOA is not reasonably obtainable for people thats playstyle is having 1 main character and their main was created before March 3, 2011.
