Wolfb.7025 Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 I used Fractal God for a while because it was a big achievement for me as I worked on it for about a year doing daily CMs + T4s. RIght now i'm using Siege Breaker because it fits my warband's theme of a military siege squadron. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gryphon.2875 Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 “Been there, Done that" on the character that earned it, and "Emissary of the Mad King" on everyone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mezuzel.4987 Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 My characters tend to have titles that fit my headcanon stories for them, like Archaeologist for the asura who I think of as having been involved in some kind of archaeology expedition that dug too deep and wound up becoming Destroyers. Or it just fits the aesthetic, like Golden or The Golden Child for my character with that color scheme. I'm not sure I'll ever get the Shadow of a Shadow title, due to my veeeeeery sloooow progress in running the Maw of Torment meta over and over, but if I do get it, I'll probably put it on my main, who uses shadow magic. Right now she's The Tormentor due to also using torment magic (she's a scourge). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fueki.4753 Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 I use Emissary of the Mad King on my Revenant and the Sunbringer one on my Guardian. I don't remember which titles my other characters use, if any at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Altion.9576 Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 "Storyteller of Orr" because Im all about Lore in my main character named Makion Lorekeeper that uses Flameseeker and Lorekeeper Staff and mace, can you get my class? :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cynder.2509 Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 Usually something that fits to every character and their backstories (or sometimes a role like healing. For example: my heal druid always has "Combat Healer" displayed so you can actually identify them as a healer) or something to show off with because everyone else seems to only show off these days and I have to keep the pace so nobody would judge me or make false assumptions about me. I play since 2012 and everyone else who does too seems to only care about showing off, sadly... It's very hard to find like minded people these days and it's sad that the community has changed so drastically with the last few years... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you're over-estimating how many people use titles to show off, and certainly how many will judge other players by their titles. Just look at this topic, plenty of people have said they choose titles based on what fits the characters theme or something they find amusing or fun. It wouldn't make any sense for people who do that to assume others are using the most impressive title they can manage and make assumptions about them based on what that is. Even if a player chooses to do that themselves it would make no sense to assume everyone else does it given how many people have said they don't.

neighto.7386 Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 "God Walking Amongst Mere Mortals" worked hard for it back in gw1 days... its pretty much the only title I have ever used on all my toons lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Batel.9206 Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 Just titles that fit that particular character's lore. I only use two, though - haven't found decent ones for the rest, and/or just don't particularly care. My "canon" Commander proudly bears the "Knight of the Thorn" title, just as he is proud to bear Caladbolg. (Well...in headcanon only. He's a daredevil. There is no Caladbolg staff. The closest is [bramblethorne](https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/File:Bramblethorne.jpg).) My sylvari Reaper wanders the world with "Dark Traveler" - because that's literally what he is: a very dark (greenish-black/purple), shadowy necromancer who travels Tyria. Despite the fearsome appearance, he's actually a noble, kind-hearted, gentle sort of a guy. Unless you're with the Nightmare Court...in which case, don't expect mercy. You won't find any from him.

Antycypator.9874 Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 _Hunter For Hire_ because I play rifle deadeye, checking LFG in PoF maps and helping random players deal with bounties and champs — just running in the desert, waiting for someone calling in map chat for help. _Ruler of the Skies_ because I play a character dressed like a dragon. _The Tormentor_ is very accurate for condi mirage. _The Demolisher_ for holo too. _Spirited Drinker_ norns are drunkards, and my norn's name has "Drunkard".

Tukaram.8256 Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 Are titles displayed automatically? If so - I have whatever is default. If not - I suppose I do not have one. I have never looked into it. When I look at the screen I see my avatar, I need no title to remind who I am. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not - I suppose I do not have one. I have never looked into it. When I look at the screen I see my avatar, I need no title to remind who I am. Titles aren't displayed automatically. They're unlocked by doing achievements and there's a little drop-down box on the achievements screen to choose one from your available titles. (This can be different for each character.) They don't do anything, it's just a bit of flavour text under your character's name like some enemies have instead of (or as well as) a description of their abilities. It's another way of personalising your character, like choosing skins and dyes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Alric.5078 Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 > @"jungsowon.2074" said: > Do you guys use titles to show off your progress in the game or just use them for cosmetic purposes? Or perhaps you use titles that fit accordingly to the lore of your character? I have 10 characters, and each of them has a title that i believe suits them. - My "main" character, a Human elementalist, currently bears the title of "Masterful Achiever" to show how far i have gone with the game. It fits her because she's the first character i have ever made when i joined the game in june 2014. - My Charr engineer is "The Demolisher" because she deals with bombs, mines, grenades, ed explosions in general. - My Human warrior is "The Annihilator" because she overwhelms foes with brute force and tears them to pieces. - My Asura thief is "The Executioner" because of the assassin vibes i get from the thief class. - My Human ravenant is "The Tormentor" because she literally spams torment like there is no tomorrow in her Mallyx Stance. XD - My Human necromancer is "The Dark Traveler" because she deals with dark magic and always dresses in black. - My Human mesmer is "Master of Secrets" because when it comes to mesmers, the truth is not what it seems at first glance. - My Sylvari guardian is the "Knight of the Thorn" because she's Sylvari, she's paladin-like, and she's the one who completed the quest to reforge Caladbolg. - My Sylvari Ranger is the "Primeval Scion" because i liked the title, even though it's not something that fits her specifically. - My Norn Ranger is "The Hunter" because she's a Norn, and a ranger, so hunting prey is what she does.

Eekasqueak.7850 Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 Honestly I've got a ton of characters and use a different one for each so I can't remember off the top of my head. I try to go for thematic ones though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
