The Skill Hunter title problem ...

I ve been doing some thinking (really i did )

this Title needs some kinda fix ...

the max rank u can get is Advanced Skill Hunter (3), rank u get by collecting 180 elites. Means u gotta cap ALL the elites of GW. it's not that hard ..

BUT, cuz there is a but ... to get the lvl 4 u need to get 225 elites.
It's pretty easy, u wait for C3, u cap the elites again, u got yer title, u ll need XXX for level 5 ...

what's my point ? well most of u people should have guessed already
to get the max title u ll need ALL ELITES EVER, in other words, u ll get that title maxed when GW ll be dead and no new elites released

my suggestion: make it maxed based on last chapter release, and remove the maxed out status from it when a chapter is released even for someone not buying it ...

ex: ppl who have all the Prophecies elites and didnt buy Factions cant have it maxed

ex2: let's say i'm grandmaster cartographer and i have 180 elites, it d mean i have maxed 2 titles for the Kind of Big Deal .. C3 is released, i ve now only 1/5 and my title d be 180/225 now

that d give some kinda real purpose at getting all of em

what do u think?

Definately a great way to fix that problem. There is no point in only being able to complete the title once the game has died out.

hey Jiao

well in a way .. when u have the 180 elites .. sry but it's maxed out to me

Tbh i was wondering that... How they were gonna sort this title out when they release new chapters. I assumed 180 was the max level and that they were gonna up the max every new chapter.

/signed i guess since i thought this was how it worked anyway

Should be pretty simple, just have the max set to whatever number the character can currently access. Characters who can only access one chapter would max out at 90, characters with two chapters would max at 180, characters with all three would max out at 270 (assuming 90 elites will be added in Nightfall).

yeah

180 rank 3
+45 to get the 225 level
another 45 ... 270 ^^

Yeh it is a tricky one. One idea is to have it like the cartographer titles with options to show "Tyrian skill hunter" for example.

nah .. sounds nice but it d be really easy to get 2 titles out of one

exactly the way i hope it's supposed to be fixed to soon.
it's pretty evident that 180 is maxed now. give a big deal point to whoever maxed this title now, hard work should have a payback

Have to say I was disappointed not to get a "maxed" title for getting the 180 but can see the point. But I do like the idea of a temporary Max. And Skill Hunter by Campaign is also a neat idea

I also wouldnt mind seeing a title for having ALL the skills in the game...all profs, currently 784 ... now that WOULD get me closer to Kind of......

at 1k per skill.. ouch

/signed, though I feel that 180 should be the hard cap for the title. Not everyone who bought Factions and Prophecies is going to be buying the upcoming chapters. I think a title that temporarily rewards people who invested the time to max it and then yanks the title away when a new chapter comes out would be as frustrating as the current setup. The title system was introduced with Factions, so it makes sense that both games' elites factor into it. Leave it at that... 180 elites is a plenty fine investiture of time and money.

I posted something similar here.

Last time I checked using Guild Wiki, there are 180 total elite skills. Earlier tonight I just reached the Advanced Skill Hunter (180 elite skills captured).

Now, I thought that this title would be maxed/completed; though to my surprise it isn't. The next level (Expert Skill Hunter) requires a total of 225 Elite Skills to be captured. But there are only 180 in the entire two chapters. Sure they may be anticipating the next chapter release, but if that's the case this title will never be complete. So has ANet screwed up this title? Sure looks like it to me.

ANet/NCSoft, I ask what the deal is with some of these strange and broken titles.

/signed to get this title properly fixed.

I agree with Skuld, there should be seperate titles, even if it means making "Kind of a big deal" harder to get. Tyrian Skill Hunter, Canthan Skill Hunter, Core Skill Hunter; and if those titles get maxed, you get a title to display showing you have captured all of them.

i saw that in yer thread

personally i wont mind "loosing the Big Deal" since i ll try to get those elites asap

What worries me more is that if they plan to make an extra 90 elites minimum. They're gonna run out of ideas. When they run out of ideas, we get absolutely shit skills just so they can meet there quota. They're digging themselves into a hole if they're setting the number of elites available already. Energy Boon (ele) sucks enough as it is, so do Double Dragon and Ride the Lightning. Theres tons of em that are so crap they couldn't possibly have taken a great deal of thought over.

They ought to just change it so that the minimum is not 90. It ought to be all the elites for primary for the first rank and all the elites for the secondary as well for the second rank and so on, IMO.

1st rank: all primary profession's elites
2nd rank: all secondary profession's elites
3rd rank: all of a 3rd profession's elites
4th rank: all of a 4th profession's elites
5th rank: all of a 5th profession's elites
6th rank: "" 6th
7th rank: "" 7th
8th rank: "" 8th

8 titles out of one ^^ gz

might be usefull if there is KOABD lvl 3 that requires 50 maxed titles ^^

No one is going to get the max rank title either, so they might as well fix that too if they are going to fix Skill Hunter.
