Guild Wars 2

Just wanted to talk about how Anet uses the term champions. I could be wrong, but i think the classification of champions are officers of elder dragons, higher than grunts but not the highest. But using the karka race as a clear example, they are known not to be controlled by any elder dragon, and is somewhat like other races like hylek. Yet in the south cove there are still champion karka. There are many more examples elsewhere too.

Im not sayin this is a bad thing, and i am quite used to the ‘champion in the front of names’ and i automatically know that it is just a mob that is somewhat stronger, and not a officier of an elder dragon. I dont know if they should come up with another classifying name that will be like the veterans which fit both, or if Anet wanted champions just to be strong mobs and not officers of the dragons.

Any ideas?

Can’t say I care much for champions because almost all of them aren’t worth killing outside of dungeons.

Champion is used twice.

Champion mobs in game are just boss-level mobs. Meant for a group.

The Elder Dragons’ Champions are just a title. They are the right hand “man” of the Dragon.

Well, we are familiar with the normal>vet>champ rank for one, but yeah it’s quite lame to make it generic.

If Champion Karka was instead named Karkan Hivemother, for example, that would make it much much more unique.

indeed that would be great

having names like karka hivemother would indeed be great, but then again Hsinimod is right, and if champions that arent part of the elder dragons have changed names, then they would kind of be like for example the anceint karka or the shaterer whihc arent classified, so i think they still might need a classification like veteran if they are going to change it
