Guild Wars 2

“I did it the hard way”

For a character who got from level 1 – 80 without using any boosts from xp scrolls, tomes of knowledge or birthday up-levelling scrolls. This would unlock this title!

But it isn’t hard to level to 80 without boosts, tomes etc. So the title should be, “I leveled”.

Yes, that would work!
And it would please a certain mind-set of people without impacting on the community as a whole.

I think the achievement “I got to Silverwastes/Pacman with a level 10 character, without any help and without dying” though, is my best personal achievement, although the title probably would be “Insane”.

If there are two methods, and one is demonstrably easier, the harder one is the “hard way” by default.

No kidding? I don’t think anyone on this forum including myself would have ever thought that. You are so wise. /sarcasm

It is still a silly idea to have a title called “I did it the hard way” for something that isn’t hard even when compared to other much more simple methods. That was my point.
