Guild Wars 2

So Prestige and titles coming to WvW! What titles would you like to see? Also speculation on Prestige, is that guild or individual? Would be nice to see something for guild give them more meaning. Like a guild that holds a tower or SM for so long gets its own room or upgrades or something.
For titles I would like to see Yak Slapper be one it makes me chuckle. Also a Burning Down the House title for aoe damage on Keeps towers and such. What would you guys like to see?

Server transfers now paid and limited that will be good for WvW will stop the server hopping. Also lighten the mood in the WvW forums when guilds leave a losing server.
I’m curious how this will all go down, new titles and prestige sounds interesting for sure.

First of, I want titles to be able to be seen without targeting a character, also, I want titles to be shown above my character if I want to. I want to be able to see my own title without opening the achievement tab and see my own title there.

And then I don’t really care what kind of titles that gets added to the game.

^^ this is important ala gw1 style , much better

Three major things were mentioned about WvW:

1. There will be unique abilities.
2. There will be prestige ranks.
3. There will be leaderboards.

Put all three together and I think a good guess is rank-based titles and abilities, somehow based on personal performance in WvW.

Become a top ranked WvW player and get an ability to rally your troops and have a high military ranked title.

I would like to see this translate into guilds somehow also. Give them a reason to stick around and upgrade and defend keeps. Right now guilds are just a group of people with the same tag running around . Possibly make the keep you hd be your guild hall, so you will wanna keep it.

As an Aion player i already saw this.

Aion have this system since forever and it is bad.

There based on your accumulated PvP points you get a Rank,Title and skills based on how high your rank is.

The highest ranked players get ridiculous skills and a transformation which turns them to small sized HP depots with even more ridiculous aoe dmg. skills.

So believe me you wont like 1 man taking Stonemist solo while 100 man cannot even scratch him/her.

Actually what I meant by “rally your troops” being a good candidate for a WvW ability is that it would not be a personal buff. It would apply to all the players in your squad (commander icon), making it more effective in a team environment.

Thief will get a new rank based skill (after 100 kills): instakill, 30 second cooldown, just target the chosen player and they will be instantly dead and loot will appear next to you, which will save them the bother of having to move to the player before killing them in under 3 second with 3 skills.

They will need to be very careful in any new skills based on ranks, and indeed on how you go about achieving those ranks and titles, as if it is based on say, number of kills, then certain classes will have massive advantages other others and it would also mean even less people will be interested in defending dolyaks, towers, etc.

Leaderboards will also be terrible, it is will encourage players to do whatever it is that will push them up that leaderboard.

Leader boards for most time defending a fort? that’s good…. Stop jumping to conclusions. it’s all good ideas as long as its implemented right

Leader boards should be for individual and guilds. Other wise team work over all will suffer in WvW. Bonuses shouldn’t make people invincible either and don’t see them allowing that. Just hope it helps and doesn’t hinder WvW cause stopping the transfers is a start.

They could put a free for all arena in EB. Anyone from the three servers can jump in and fight. All people even from your server are hostile, would settle some server disputes. C guild mad at X guild on the same server go fight it out.

I seriously hope that prestiging does not mean resetting your stats or something——————————-> CoD is that way.

How ever the prestige icons are represented, they should NOT obstract the view – it’s bad enough half the screen can be filled with zergs.
