I'm not diminishing the achievements of others, it's quite the opposite. I'm reading a lot of how monumental GWAMM was and how nothing in GW2 compares with it. Isn't that diminishing the achievements of others? Or what is the point of talking about how awesome GWAMM was other than belittle everyone that got achievements in GW2? Dont' accuse me of doing what anyone that posted their love of GWAMM did already in this thread. I apologize, I just read back through the thread and I had wrongly attributed some other posts as yours. The op simply asked what title people used and as usual, some had to come back with "that takes no skill" etc. Some achievements in both games take a lot of effort, some are almost giveaways but that should not diminish the fun of anyone using that title. I saw someone say cartographer was just a grind. When the community released the map packs/kits it could be done far easier, but when it was done originally without any guidance that was an achievement that was not easy to get and was far more then a grind. Same with survivor, after they changed it yes, anyone could AFK but that was not true to begin with. I just really hate new players who have no clue what they are talking about comparing what both games are like now to what they where in the beginning.

This is where you are wrong. In order to get the latest title available you need to complete almost everything in the game. You can't just wait for them to add more achievement points to grind, in order to get the top available title you must finish most achievements available. By the time you wait to "grind" them out, the next title will become available for those that actually finished most parts of the game. This is what you can use for GWAMM:https://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Kind_of_a_Big_Deal The mission, exploration and skill hunter titles have some hard missions to complete, and some hard zones to vanquish, but even those are absolutely nothing compared to Raid CMs or Fractal CMs in GW2. Cartographer is just a massive grind affiliation ranks are all a massive grind, activity titles are all a massive grind, PVP titles are mostly a massive grind, to the point that they aren't worth it anywayThere are 43 titles, excluding the PVP titles it's 38, you can get GWAMM by completing the grindfests, no skill required. What was so "monumental" exactly? Survivor and Legendary Defender of Ascalon on their release? You didn't even need those to get GWAMM.I can understand how those that got it want to make it look something other than a massive grind, but GWAMM is just that, a massive brainless grind. You could say the same about all the titles in GW2 as well. Kill 1000 of this, kill 1000 of that, big whoop! Even raids and fractals can be bought for gold so what is your real point other then to diminish the achievements of others? Nearly all titles in both games can be cheesed or purchased with enough gold, so no one is any better then anyone else.

I hate jumping puzzles, I mean really hate them because I have so much difficulty with them but I had no problem with this at all. Some of the puzzles were the "easy" ones and for the ones I could not do, there are always kind mesmers to help. Even the broken wall (which I was about to give up on) a mesmer can help you with.

This has nothing to do with sharing an account. The op is asking to have a separate login for the forums and the game as this is a high security risk if you have others sharing your PC, which Anet has no right to dictate to anyone. This has been brought up before and ignored.

Why do you ask? Because the devs and forum mods created a specific thread for all QOL posts and asked all users to post in there and not to make new/duplicate threads.

Not really as it doesn’t require much of any skill to get. LOL, yeah right! Many of the achievements required took far more skill then anything in GW2. Not really. GW1 titles were pretty much locked behind grind and/or gold. LOL, what ever you say, keep thinking that if you want but those of us who played since beta know better.

Aww, give the op a break, this is only the third thread he has created about this. ;-)

With each thread I see abut this, my desire decreases.

Spent decades killing other players and dealing with the general toxicity of PvP as a server admin. Have out grown the need to prove myself anymore and would rather play with other players then against them.

Have you 100men in your guild? xD We are 20men :# Well sorry to say, the guild system was not designed for micro guilds like yours (or mine). This has been a complaint since day one so very much doubt there will be any changes to that coming any time soon. In fact, with the addition of guild halls, it became even more micro guild unfriendly.

I do not use the raptor at all, and only used it when I had to to get the other mounts. Still makes me sick to my stomach and gives me a headache when I try.

My primary reaction to the idea is that I'm not a fan. I can only see this being doable if the random kill can only happen to players who have also consumed the item. Kind of like a combat tonic where you can only fight people who are participating, this kill effect should only impact participants. That is actually kind of how it worked in the film. You where given a box and told if you pushed the button a random unknown person would die and you would receive a ton of money. The catch was if you did press the button the box was then given to another random person who was told the same thing, but if they pressed the button you would be the one to die. I do not really see how something like this could be used in game, just sounds like a really bad idea.

Even the supporters (that already have the mount) are summing up what is wrong with this collection. Slow Clap Those aren't things that are wrong, it's just things they don't like. No, they are actually things Josiah.2967 chose to pick and choose out of my post and quote out of context.

With the griffon and springer, you had to jump down the hole to teleport. They more or less fixed that some time ago by making the shield taller. With the SkyScale, you do not need to jump in to the hole over the shield, you can simply fly directly up to the platform. No you didn’t. You could get to the platform without the teleport. So they fixed half the exploit? Seems like someone dropped the ball.

It is possible to fly to the platform at the center of the Thaumanova Reactor where the event "Defeat the misplaced steam ogre" occurs using the SkyScale, bypassing the use of the Matrix Cube Key.

Even the supporters (that already have the mount) are summing up what is wrong with this collection. Slow Clap Ha, ha, Nice try using my quotes out of context.Yeah, I already have mine. Took 1 week, 1 to 2 hours a day (when I could play at all). OMG it was so hard! Play the game and get the mount or don't play and don't get it. Your choice.If players spent as much time gathering the map currencies as they did complaining, they would have it unlocked already. I really have to wonder, if it is really that hard to get why are the sky's filled with them already?

Noted and changed. Thanks Do not know what it was before, but it's still misleading. "new mystery skill" sounds like you found a skill that is not well known,unless you meant to say "new mastery skill"? Maybe change the subject to "new mastery skill idea" or suggestion? As for the idea, it's already been stated by the devs that 2 riders on a mount is not possible. It was originally something that they where going to do but for technical reasons it was dropped. Ah. This is the sort of info I was looking for. Cheers. But out of curiosity can you find a link to where they said this? (I couldn't find anything on it.) I'd be interested to read it in full.No idea where the link is, It was posted here in the forums a very long time ago in one of the threads suggesting passengers for mounts. There have been many threads on the subject so searching the forums is time consuming. Perhaps one of the original posters of this info may see this and share the link again?

They bring it back 2 weeks every year for free, so why would anyone want to pay 3000 gems? I for one would not miss it if they removed it completely. The 8 bit weapons and now that ugly chair just ruin the landscape.

To be honest, at first I felt sorry for those who where having trouble with this, but the more I read the complaints, the less I feel for them. This is no different then ascended armor. People ranted and raved about the timegate, being forced to craft the crystals, damask, etc. It went on and on for weeks until everyone saw it was really not that hard to do at all. While this collection was not "fun", it was not that hard at all. Feeding? no big deal at all. Craft or buy food, still available to everyone. Saddle? map currencies are not that hard to farm. Most of the older players should have had stacks saved up already and if you have just started playing, what makes you think you should get for free what others have saved for months for? Jumping puzzles? Yeah I hate them with a passion but you do not have to do a single one if you do not want to, that was a great surprise. There ARE some players with legitimate issues but Anet is working on that. This mount is/will be accessible to everyone. Everyone can get it if they want to put in the effort, but it is not free. You have to work for it. Those players who have it already worked for it. Those players who will get it will work for it. Those players who just complain about it will not. It's that simple.

None of the choices are right for me.Lots of ideas, but after getting mod slapped so many times I decided it was best to keep them to myself.

I prefer to think of him as male so I can name him "Bob". Or if necessary, "Bob-ara".
