Fishrock.5207 Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 I like the Nobility theme for sPvP, but the Military theme would be cool for some future WvW thing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes sense, I know it's hard to find something that represents the player's position without 4th wall breaking. Using a known hierarchy like you've mentioned in your first post does seem like a good idea, but going down to baron/duchess - those may not be something everyone's familiar with IMO. Emperor's Gladiator, Balthazar's Gladiator etc. could be more distinguishable in that regard. God of the Arena, Demigod of the Arena also sound great!

I would definitely vote for this! However your second suggestion wouldnt work since "Legend of the Arena" and "Veteran of the Arena" are already in the game.

Zalani.9827 Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 I really like the idea of using “of the mists” as a title scheme. Nobility theme would be interesting though. Also because Knight of the Mists sounds cool. Although as a con “of the mists” does kind of sound more like a WvW title than spvp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Making use of a prefix instead of a suffix to get rid of the lengthy "of the Arena" could be a good idea. Mix it with "Nobility" that most people are voting for in the process and you get something like this. Best of both worlds? 1st: Arena God/Goddess 2nd: Arena Demigod/Demigoddess 3rd: Arena King/Queen 4th-10th: Arena Prince/Princess 11th – 25th: Arena Duke/Duchess 26th-100th: Arena Baron/Baroness 101st – 250th: Arena Knight/Dame Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkantos.7460 Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 i wish you would revert to the old pvp rank points for phoenix etc because IT WAS SOMETHING FOR LONG TIME GOALS and after your downgrading of ranks ... simply everyone who has little bit played are able to get phoenix ....

Max.9705 Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 Old - Current Titles Pros – No work required since it’s already in. Cons – After Legendary Demigod, each title sounds less differentiated. They don’t illustrate how well you placed, as they are pretty close in meaning. Difficult to say how Ruthless, Relentless, and Merciless Legend compare. 1st: God of PvP 2nd: Legendary Demigod 3rd: Immortal Legend 4th-10th: Unyielding Legend 11th – 25th: Relentless Legend 26th-100th: Ruthless Legend 101st – 250th: Merciless Legend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nevra.5489 Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 Hello all, I really liked some of the suggested ones with God of the mists .... but i would still prefer a nostalgic themed title from gw1 :D, like the Gladiator title. That title would fit well with the Eternal Coliseum map. I don't mind which ones from the 12 titles you will use but here's my suggestion: 1: Legendary Gladiator 2: Balthazar's Gladiator 3: King's Gladiator 4-10: Vanquishing Gladiator 11-25: Terrifying Gladiator 26-100: Deadly Gladiator 101-250: Fierce Gladiator or Mighty Gladiator (I like them both) Also i think in gw2 you get titles way to easy, like very easy story achievement her take a title, that's why they have no meaning. In gw1 it felt more like an achievement when you finally got a title and were pinged in the chat in all cities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silvey.6184 Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 Just give every player in the Top 250 a new nameplate badge with his/her individual rank (in numbers), which gets updatetd after every season. Otherwise I prefer the number theme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MithranArkanere.8957 Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 Military doesn't work because having armies is more of a WvW thing, and they already have that kind of ranking. By the way, WvW ranks could also use some tweaking to be more intuitive and easier to read. As I've just mentioned [here](https://en-forum.guildwars2.com/discussion/71949/suggestion-wvw-rank-tier-titling-adjustment "here"). Most people seem to like royalty themes, but that's kind of a Nightmare court thing and nobility titles do not feel like something one earns fighting in arenas, but with quests and military campaigns. So that's out of the question. too I'd go with a gladiatorial theme, but although there was tons of different types of gladiators, they mostly had ranks for the first and the second "Primus palus" (first sword) and "secondus palus" (second sword). I like "Fist Sword" and "Second Sword" but it's kind of limited, since not every uses swords. In any case, I think it would be best to keep a common word between the tittles, so they are clearly seen as a category. Something like: - God of the Arena - Arena Demigod - Arena Immortal - Arena Legend - Arena Spirit - Arena Ascendant - Arena Champion - Legendary God - Legendary Demigod - Legendary Immortal - Legendary Spirit - Legendary Ascendant - Legendary Hero - Legendary Gladiator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

apharma.3741 Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 New titles are largely pointless if nothing is being done about people orchestrating the buying and selling of the top positions or match manipulating to one of the top spots without repercussions. So get rid of titles altogether and this is why we can't have nice things. That or Brendan.1309 suggestion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, whatever we decide will not be in place for next season. I suggest to combine Nobility Theme (or similar) and Number theme by this way: Nobility Theme - will be directly visible in nameplates above the head, like "Prince of PvP (legendary mark)", if someone will select a player and move mouse pointer to this on top of screen to the badge he will see his numbering rank pop up with explanation what Prince of PvP means in reality (Top 10 of PvP), like today for "this pvp league badge is available with ...." this method will help people to understand real rank meaning and remember it over the time. pure Nobility Theme (or similar) without visual explanation will be not be understandable for the most of people you can even leave existing OLD scheme visible but add Number theme pop-up with explanation (may be it's easiest thing to do) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vagrant.7206 Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 The military ones are too similar to WvW.

SoulSin.5682 Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 Taking that ranked is always Conquest, we can also use this as subtitle: - God of Conquest - Demigod of Conquest - King of Conquest etc... All that said, I do have a Personal lov for "God of PvP". Its quick and direct as a title. Who on PvP actually cares if a game mode as title looks awkward?
