Its pretty surprising that there’s a title for crafting two same legendaries but not one for the achievement 5/5 legendaries which is 250% more difficult to achieve.

Thoughts?

The title was a consolation prize for people who wanted to dual wield legendaries pre wardrobe. A title for 5/5 would just be added to the already showy 5 legendaries and players would gain little/no benefit.

i don’t see any benefit for giving title to people crafting 2 same legendary either.

While I understand that the Twice-Told Legend was a consolation prize, I still don’t see why people with the 5 legendary achievement shouldn’t get at least something to show for it. Well, other than the actual legendaries of course.

Maybe try explaining your point instead. I just made mine, this is where you can make yours.

What point did you make? That legendaries aren’t the goal in themselves? That people shouldn’t feel good about completing one weapon they need to complete 5 before they get “the real shiny”?

People should make 5 legendaries because they want 5 legendaries (and bragging rights that come with) not because they feel obligated based on an achievement/title.
Giving the value of a title only to people with 5 legendaries or more makes people with one feel like slackers, it basically is a slap in the face that says “congratulations, you did something only 1% of the player base has done, but it’s not worth much unless you do it 4 more times”

There should be a title, yes. Legends are a nice goal by themselves, but a title for those who make more than one seems like a logical step to me. And I really don’t understand the logic behind claiming it would make people who only crafted one feel like slackers… It’s like saying it’s unfair for people who have crafted one legend to display it because there are others who have not crafted even one and it makes them feel like slackers. Dumb logic is dumb.

The best way is to have a title for each number of legends that you soulbound to your account. So for one legend you get a title (Legendary Collector, for example), for 2 different legends you get the second tier of that title (Legendary Enthusiast or w/e), for 3 you get another and so on, one title for each additional different legend you bind to your account.

Adding a title to a achievement is hardly a ‘’real shiny’’ as you call it.

Why would people feel obligated to go for 5 legendaries or feel bad for only making one and not getting the title and/or achievement? Titles are prestigious things to show you overcame a big feat or challenge or accomplished something not everyone has done. I don’t see why it would be bad to actually give said title to a small percentage of the playerbase.

It’s like the limited glorious PvP armor. Barely anyone has the full set, and you only got 1-2 pieces if you ranked in the top 20 in the ladder reset.

And what is wrong with it? I mean, crafting 5 legendaries isn’t an easy thing for any casual gamers (barring the hardcore ones) and why shouldn’t they get a title for that? Its not, as if it will have negative consequences. If there’s a title for the same legendaries crafted (consolation or not), IMO there should be one for 5/5 as well.

Isn’t having 5 legendaries to show off in combat or standing in LA a showoff on its own? Even link them in /m .

I don’t have even one Legendary but considering ANet hands out titles for such things as carving a few pumpkins and doing a holiday quest to get the Star of Gratitude, I don’t think it’s unreasonable to give a title to someone who makes 5 Legendaries. If it makes someone like me feel like a slacker for not even having one Legendary, then I guess I’ll have to do what’s necessary to get the title.

Be careful what you ask for
ANet may give it to you.

I hope you’re sarcastic because it awards the same amount of AP (5/5) as crafting the same legendary does.

5/5 is too casual, it should be like other weapon skin collections and require all legendary skins to be unlocked for a new title.

I’m not dead sure why some people are against a title for multiple Legendary owners. You can get a title for carving a few pumpkins, getting the star of gratitude, being a year old, collecting junk, killing a boss in the Silverwastes with a bunch of other people and a multitude of other titles. I would think a title for owning 5 Legendaries rates at least on the same level as collecting 51 types of junk.

if by some off chance they do make a title for it, they should just name it “Credit Card Warrior”

Anyone can buy gems, convert it gold and buy dungeon paths for dungeon master & dungeoneer title, so whats your point?

You know what, I doubt more than a tiny minority fall into this category. Let’s look at some math.

Right now
100 gems sells for 9 g 38 s .
100 gems costs 15 g 6 s to buy.
100 gems costs 1.25 USD to buy.
1 g costs 0.13 USD to buy through gems.

Also right now Kraitkin costs 1750 gold.
So, if one gold costs 13 cents to buy then 1750 gold = $227.50
Let’s pretend that you can get all 5 weapons for 1750 gold each. That would mean all 5 Legendaries = $1137

Now, how likely is it that someone is using a parent’s credit card, or their own for that matter? What percent of the player base is doing this?

(I know that that number, $1137, would be much higher. It’s to point out the silliness of this argument).

Be careful what you ask for
ANet may give it to you.

Like others have said, you can buy other titles as well with credit cards, so why is this an exception? Its not like adding a title will imbalance the game economy or cause any other harm.

What if someone have 10 and think they deserve a title too.

Maybe Anet should just make a new title Legendary collector: . Where * says how many legendary the guy have.

Because legendarily are already rewarding, with a cool item, that has special effects, animations, footprints, and makes your character stand out. Give me a glowing heap of trash that i can use as a weapon for collecting all the different junk, then you can have your titles
