ArenaNet Staff Ben Phongluangtham.1065 Posted March 20, 2019 ArenaNet Staff Share Posted March 20, 2019 Hi everyone!As you may know, we have been considering making new PvP leaderboard titles for some time. At this point, we would like to involve the community in that decision by letting you vote on a few proposals! We came up with three different title schemes that you can see below. Additionally, I’ve listed for each title scheme some pros and cons from our point of view. You are also free to suggest new schemes in this discussion.Please note that:1) These proposals aren’t a guarantee. Things can still change, especially if someone suggests a scheme that we like significantly more.2) Any additional title suggestions should have a unifying theme.3) The vote results will be one of the consideration we take into account when deciding what new title scheme we will use.Thank you for your help!Old - Current TitlesPros – 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 PvP2nd: Legendary Demigod3rd: Immortal Legend4th-10th: Unyielding Legend11th – 25th: Relentless Legend26th-100th: Ruthless Legend101st – 250th: Merciless LegendNew – Nobility ThemePros – Very easily recognizable ranking between the various titles.

ArenaNet Staff Ben Phongluangtham.1065 Posted March 20, 2019 Author ArenaNet Staff Share Posted March 20, 2019 One additional note. We'll keep the poll up for about a week before closing it! Also, whatever we decide will not be in place for next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArenaNet Staff Ben Phongluangtham.1065 Posted March 20, 2019 Author ArenaNet Staff Share Posted March 20, 2019 Another additional note. If you've earned a title previously, it won't change into a new title. You'll keep the old one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angeels.3269 Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 Out of the ones suggested I think the numbers is the best option. That said I would recommend some changes to second and third so the list would look like so:1st: God of PvP2nd: Demigod of PvP -- (truncated and makes it clearer its second place)3rd: Legend of PvP -- (truncated again, and the immortal is not needed if other titles lack their descriptor)4th-10th: Top 10 of PvP11th – 25th: Top 25 of PvP26th-100th: Top 100 of PvP101st – 250th: Top 250 of PvPAlternatively, I would suggest a similar theme as the top three titles, but denoting mastery as opposed to Military rank or Nobility. For instance,1st: God of PvP2nd: Demigod of PvP3rd: Legend of PvP4th-10th: Champion of PvP11th – 25th: Master of PvP26th-100th: Veteran of PvP101st – 250th: ((no clue)) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dondarrion.2748 Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 There is already a Legend of the Mists from HoM for gw1 players, so don't refuse that in pvp please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeLZedaR.4790 Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 My suggestion would be:First of all rework all current titles with "Legend" to give the title its prestige back - Seeing literally everyone with legend devalues the word.Old:Legendary Champion -> Terror of the MistsPrimordial Legend -> PrimordialExalted Legend -> ExaltedIllustrious Legend -> IllustriousIndomitable Legend -> IndomitableCurrent:Merciless Legend -> Merciless ChallangerRuthless Legend -> Ruthless ChallangerRelentless Legend -> Relentless ChallangerUnyielding Legend -> Unyielding ChallangerLeave Immortal Legend/Legendary Demigod as is.As for new titles:250: Fearless Competitor100: Remorseless Competitor25: Emotionless Competitor10: Unwavering Competitor3: Eternal Legend2: The Living Myth1: The Almighty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retsuko.2035 Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 Why not introduce the ranks you've managed to get to in the WvW ranking system as a title to unlock ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cryorion.9532 Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 WvW needs those military ranks as titles now! Pretty please :)My suggestions for PvP:1st: The One Who Beat Them All2nd: Not the Best One in PvP3rd: Not even the 2nd Best One in PvP4th-10th: Experienced in PvP11th – 25th: Somehow Experienced in PvP26th-100th: Try-hard of PvP101st – 250th: Expendable and Forgettable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vancho.8750 Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 I don't believe that the titles are the problem but the visibility of them. All titles use the same text, if a special border, fonts and colors are added for the rare titles it would improve how noticeable they are, they should be symbol like legendary weapon and the pvp badge. As they are now God of PvP and Chicken Chaser have the same value as nobody would bother to read it. For the poll the Nobility Theme seems to be the best option.

Lonami.2987 Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 I voted for the nobility theme, but I would remove the "PvP" part and replace it with "the Arena":1st: God/Goddess of the Arena2nd: Demigod/Demigoddess of the Arena3rd: King/Queen of the Arena4th-10th: Prince/Princess of the Arena11th–25th: Duke/Duchess of the Arena26th-100th: Baron/Baroness of the Arena101st–250th: Knight/Dame of the ArenaAlso, another suggestion:1st: First of the Arena2nd: Second of the Arena3rd: Third of the Arena4th-10th: Legend of the Arena11th–25th: Hero of the Arena26th-100th: Champion of the Arena101st–250th: Veteran of the Arena Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

witcher.3197 Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 This is probably a minor thing but it's been bugging me for a while - please don't use the gamemode's name in titles (PvP/PvE/WvW). It's just very uninspired and even immersion breaking for an MMO - I'm no roleplayer but still, let's try to conjure up something from the lore if possible. Top 100 of PvP is even worse in that regard.For example God of the Mists or something similar for rank 1 instead of God of PvP.@"fayss.9614" said:1st: God/Godess of PvP2nd: Legendary Demigod/Demigoddess of PvP3rd: Legendary Gladiator4th-10th: Balthazar's Gladiator11th-25th: Emperor's Gladiator26th-100th: King's Gladiator101st-250th: Vanquishing GladiatorI'd love this! Pays some tribute to GW1 titles and uses "gladiator" instead of legend which is way more fitting. Without "PvP", of course. - we could have the first few titles mist themed then the rest gladiator, doesn't have to follow the same scheme.

Fenom.9457 Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 Voted for the nobility theme because I loved the high fantasy feeling. I’d love to be a knight, or all the way up to a king. Not that I’m good enough at PvP to ever earn any of these titles... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cronos.6532 Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 @Ben Phongluangtham.1065Will the title achievements be made into hidden achievements, but perhaps made more prominent elsewhere, like in PvP panel? It's a little weird for God of PvP and the other achievements to remain unhidden 0 AP achievements visible to everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But we also commonly have the complaint that people want others to know what the accomplishment was and where it came from. Using of the Mists could work instead. However, in GW2 lore, the Mists also includes WvW and Fractals, so that could be pretty confusing as well."of the Arena" might be a good substitute.

I think we should have some sort of Contest and select what the player base believes would be the best especially if we aren't going to be getting them next season so we should just take our time and do justice to the community.
