Grand Overlord rank should have a passive

Lil_Willie

I'm going to 'critique' ZOS for having a big grand rank, with no incentive for making it to that rank. Do you agree that all the players that played all this time to get that rank should get an additional Pvp alliance war passive? Personally, this should've been the case since the launch of the game. Yay or nay?

A long time ago I thought a special rank icon of just the alliance symbol (dragon, eagle or lion) instead of the five stars they have now woulda looked cooler, remember making a thread about that actually.

But regarding this, why? You stop getting passives and skills at AR13 (formerly 24), and get nothing else except titles and dyes all the way up to 50 as it is.

No. Acquiring GO takes a long time and commitment to one character. It's a mark of pride and accomplishment that few have obtained. Also, killing a GO grants the Grand Overlord Slayer achievement, or whatever the exact name is. That's pretty cool, and makes them sought after targets in Cyrodiil. I'd say that's pretty clever considering they're supposed to be high ranking officers and leaders in the Alliance War who should be a high priority.

Nope title only, only kind of passive I could agree on is one that offers no combat advantage.

I obtained a passive called 'retired to pve because tired of being targeted hardcore'. it's amazin!

jokes aside, I liked Rylana's idea of the symbol for alliance the best.

Symbol sounds great. I also think that a mount or a special costume would be a nice reward, too.

I vote thong! it would be funny as heck to see big ernie in a thong.......

Call it "SLEEP"

How about a faction leader costume? GOs can run around as the queen, king, or skald king?

Once my main gets grand overlord hes gonna be retired from pvp duties. Almost alliance rank 44. Already have 7 max level characters to play on.

Erondil

I dont think Grand Overlord should grant a passive and thus an advantage in combat, but a cosmetic reward such as a faction specific mount would be really cool.

I agree. Considering so many people are making alt accounts and/or are having to start new accounts due to their game behavior...those of us who had the dedication and commitment to our original toons (or to at least one toon) should be recognized for reaching that rank. I feel a lot don't even care about pvp ranks anymore and maybe this would encourage them to? I just reached Tribune and was super excited about it. Making those ranks is hard work and I can't wait to make GO! It surely is more difficult to do that than make emp anymore.

AD - Eagle mount
EP - Dragon mount
DC - Li...oh wait..

oh shut up already rofl. You make every single forum thread about this.

On another note I think a mount would be cool maybe a special costume. The costume being the neckbeard guy from the WoW South Park episode

Yes please add more imbalance to the game!

Forestd16b14_ESO

No. The emperor passives are BS enough as is PvP doesn't need more BS passives.

If Grand Overlords get a mighty alliance symbol , I would like a Sweetroll symbol for alliance recruit , soft spongy sweet AP .

Cogo

Not a bad idea, as long as they keep the gaining of PvP ranks as it is and DON'T make it faster!
The passive could be something useful but not "needed" so its fine that only a few players have it.

The PvP ranks already rewards us enough with a title, achievements, a rare dye and most importantly, a famous or infamous reputation!
Ask any Pact on PC-EU to name a Cyrodiil Grand Overlord, and you get a DC (Blue) player name as answer.

An added passive for rank 50 would add flare and add something new to always aim for.
Maybe add 1% to Health, weapon/spell damage, block, or something global that's useful for everyone, but not a "need".

The title is reward enough.

God_flakes

Off topic, but when you ignore someone on the forum does it also block them from seeing your posts?

Nah.

God_flakes

Great. Thanks

Skyy

Give them a title called supreme farmer and a motif that makes weapons look like various farming equipment.

Orchish

Reduced lag and improved performance for Grand overlord Rank.

Hektik_V

Gimme more stuff

Vaoh

Give them Costumes! A mount wouldn't be a terrble idea either.

There should be a very unique and distinguishing cosmetic reward (besides the title) for earning the title of Grand Overlord. It takes so much commitment to reach that rank. Why not?

JDar

If there's no incentive for it, why do so many players farm AP like their lives were worth nothing but AP?

fastolfv_ESO

honestly wouldnt mind chars becoming more powerful as they rank up til grand overlord. it needs something other than giving other people an achieve when you die

Lore_lai

Definitely no to passive.
+100 to unique symbol, costume and mount.

Cinbri

Get unfair advantage coz you already good.. Not best idea I think. Just grant those new slot that allow to slot banners like those mini-bosses wear now so GO would be seen from miles away

PrednisoneQueen

Pretty colors? Stylish garb? Yes please!
