The PvE titles are awesome! *exploring Tyria with characters right now!*

i'm going to wait and see what titles there are I think. Although it's tempting to go tearing about tyria, capping skills etc etc I think i'll wait and pick which ones to be. Personally I may well avoid the grind ones(every elite skill for example) and concentrate on the fun ones such as exploration and missions

Man...people can pay now to get titles ( runners etc. )

Wow, nice amount of fame on that guy. i wonder if there is a title for 240 fame.....
Anyway, yeah pretty cool, and i am Sooo glad there is no title for XP.

This I find the most interesting sentence. |

No I think its the number of Quests + Missions in Cantha AND in Tyria. This screenshot was obviously taken to test these titles. There's no way there would be EXACTLY 1000 quests/missions. IMO these are just temp numbers to test the Title system. |

1,000 quests+missions?
that's too much even if you count both Tyria and Cantha, include Pre-Sear Ascalon and SJ Monastery to it as well. You still won't end up to 1,000. maybe half.
It's possible repeatables are counted but then again that will mean there's another level to that title, like what 2,000 quests+missions for the next level?
A lot of times you have to do repeatble quests+missions.

I like the idea of adding NPCs to the guild hall. No longer will I have to leave the GH for some trivial matter such as getting something from my storage to give to a guild mate.

It means you could do the first mission 1k times and get the title....
Not that there are 1k unique missions in the game....

If I read it correctly the awards are for elite captures by a character. Skill points are XP heavy, so capturing 180 elites is really an XP race. I'm counting 260 total elite caps (150 prophecies alone, 200 factions alone). Any way you cut it, the cap title will be a tough pve challenge.
The gladiator title will be scorned among your hardcore pvpers, but I have a feeling there will be some people who will secretly earn it during spare hours (me).
Edit: Thanks Woutsie. That's what I get for going from the top of my head.

^Nope.
...For example, the first level of "skill hunter" requires that you capture 90 elite skills with a single character. You become an "adept skill hunter" when you reach a total of 135 elite skills

5K experience points for capping an elite.
Buy 4 skills, get the skill point for the 5th one free.

Yeah I'm excited about the xp for captures too

No one share the info what other places they can unlock

GH NPCs, true, no more leaving the gh for trivial matters, especially now that the GH is in Battle Isles.

I wonder... is the 5k for elite caps RETROACTIVE? Do we get 5k from skills already capped? I remember when they changed the max needed XP for new skill point from 20k to 15k. That was retroactive. My necro got 4 skill points from that. So I suppose this is retroactive as well, or what?

im more interested in random arena matches count for the gladiators title, and if thats retroactive!!

so pvp'ers have something cool and visual and all we get is some crappy title we can only see ourselves or spam up 'im the kings whatever' which means nothing to anyone and certainly has no wow factor. good job again |

since we are talking about the new cool features they will put, anyone of you try to think about how most of us complaining about how small shared storage we have...imagine this (i don't if we can call this abuse or not)..heavy PVE farmers start to make their own guilds, everyone of them become the only leader and the only member of his own guild, so he/she become the only one has the advantage of guild storage.
since it's GUILD storage, we should expect it has not less than 500-1000 slot ,5-10 slots for each member..so is it possible that some ppl will do that ?

maybe guild features will come at a price or member requirement?

THREE skills! Not 4! It takes 15k xp per skill point.

Ok 3 then, I really wasn't doing the maths, just trying to clarify something that had been written earlier.

Hopefully the exp bonus from the elite skills captures are RETROACTIVE.
If that is the case, then wahoo!
I'm sure a lot people will be happy.

No, the XP bonuses will not be retroactive, but the skill status will be.
musefanalert
the more i read about factions the more im glad ive pre-ordered it, shame its being released so close to my exams though.....
Lady Lozza
lol what exams, muse?
Anything science or maths I should be able to help with in game - mind you I don't know how much you will learn while gaming at the same time

At least I don't have to worry about exams after Factions release.
Of course, last year I was foolish enough to actually wait to buy Guild Wars until June, when my exams were...
Boy, was that ever good planning.

Guys I hate to burst your bubble, but there are obviously not going to be 1000 missions in the game. The screen was taken on Anet's private test servers where they can change any variables. I mean, do you honestly believe that Andrew Patrick got _31,843_ fame in Hall of Heroes? Yeah, I didn't think so. Also, he has only 156,000 xp and yet has managed to get 180 elite skills (all of them)...once again, not possible.
So no 1000 missions - the map isn't even big enough for that many for crying out loud! More like 70-80 missions in total is my guess.

Very cool to read about all the new additions to the game. I am a PvE explorer so its nice to know I will get a title for my accomplishments od clearing out entire maps.
I am also excited to read about the new features for the Guild Hall. It will be very nice to have a storage agent and merchants in the Hall instead of having to town jump like we do now. And the guild VAULT?? Awesome. Probably the best new feature added
