    I put on my pvp title for doing pve stuff, and my pve title for doing pvp stuff. I tend to stick with 'Explorer' because it's so dull - I guess adjectives were too pricey that day.

    I'm the only kid on my block without the arena title yet, because my groups always burn out by the time we get to the boss fight, so having something stupid go wrong when he's at 20% a few too many times causes rage quits. Plus the final boss glitched out on us one time and wouldn't reset/respawn - that was fun. I got bored with trying to complete it and as OP points out, the title is so commonplace now I wouldn't even use it once I got it. I missed out on getting it while the getting was still good, I guess.

    Yup. Unlike most former emps, these people actually accomplished something.

    Depends on how the player got former emperor tbf. Those that got it legitimately on high pop campaigns are unfortunately getting tarred with the same brush as those who didn't.

    I like the handful of praetorians and palatines that walk around with recruit or volunteer titles. They are like snakes in the grass

    I only just started realizing this from seeing it on high rank players on my own side.

    So many time I'd focus on the volunteers and recruits. I wondered why i kept getting my ass handed to me.

    The difference between the DAC title and Former Emp? You actually have to work for DAC. I lol when I see former emps running around and I know they were fed ap and flipped.

    It's a PVE achievement. You can be great at PVE but be horrible at pvp.

    It's also the newest title so people are excited to sport it.

    It's also possible to be horrible at pvp and have the Former Emperor title.

    It seems like every fifth or sixth player in Cyrodiil now sports the Dragonstar Arena Champion title. Most of them melt like butter in a fight, too.

    When I see a "Dragonstar Arena Champion" with AvA Rank Corporal or Tyro, I go for him like a bear after honey.

    Sadly, even the August Palatine rank doesn't mean anything either. Just more time spent zerging.

    ^This is the reason I actually use the DAC title at all. At least I had to actually defeat some mildly challenging content to get it. Most titles in this game are pretty boring, I have most of them (only up to 17 pvp rank tho), but they're really just time spent: All PvP ranks, Explorer, * Hero, Daedric Lord Slayer, * Fisher.. and so on.

    It's all about knowing your rank insignia. From Legionary up to first Sargeant you got chevrons, squares from Lieutenant to Centurion, Colonel is <> and then you get Crescents from Tribune up.

    But even more than that, the names. I don't claim to know everyone, but I recognise most good players by name.

    Yeah there's an element of truth to that, for sure.

    However time spent zerging is still time spent PvPing. Those Palatines might not be the best duellists or 1vX players necessarily, but they've been PvPing since day 1 and they know their PvP inside-out. They're no scrubs. Also if you attack them, you might get run over by their train which is stealthing just around the corner :P

    I approach any high-ranked player with a bit more caution then I do with volunteers, tyros and corporals. Which of course makes things interesting if it's actually a good player playing an alt :P

    "Time spent" does not equate to anything revolving around skill or competence. A monkey can put immoveable and pulsar or batswarm on their bar and be a contributor in PvP in it's current state. One would think that practice (Time spent) would yield skill in pvp but it simply doesn't when the majority run around zerging. Stay on the crown and press buttons 1-5. They are great at pressing those buttons and following the leader though but humans learn that as early as Kindergarten.

    Kill Counter is a fantastic add-on to put actual skill vs experience vs title into perspective. Especially if you do solo or small group pvp. The kill stat sheet is awesome for that add-on.

    Quality practice (eh, semi) and knowledge equate to skill in this game. Following the crown and spamming whatever aoe does not. That's my opinion at least. I'm ok if someone cares to disagree but I stand firmly in that.

    Just because some people like playing large groups( because it's the best way to help the alliance) doesn't necessarily make them bad players.

    Time spent equates knowledge and experience and that counts for a lot. The people who are Palatines play a lot and by definition not all that game time can be as part of a zerg as you can't get 24 people to be online all day.

    They'd have to have decent AP/Hour rate even when playing solo or small group to get that high.

    I'm happy to agree to disagree.

    lol @ people thinking PvP rank actually means anything related to skill.

    All PvP rank means is "that person got a lot of defense ticks"

    Literally all it means.


    Also keep in mind that pretty much anyone with a PvP rank of 30+ is more likely than not to be a solo toon player. They dont play alts like others do. For all you know that rank 14 person might actually have say, five alts with rank 14+ (which would put them very close to that rank 30 player had it been all on one toon)

    Yes, this convo was had. Regardless, I don't build for small open field skirmishes, but for large zergs/keep battles. That I can do anything solo in open-field is funny.

    I have yet to fight a high PvP ranked player in a one on one. only ones I fought either were part of a large group, or had an emperor with them. so I cant speak to the skill of these players.

    sure they are better than me though:)

    All PvP rank means is "that person got a lot of defense ticks"

    Literally all it means.


    Also keep in mind that pretty much anyone with a PvP rank of 30+ is more likely than not to be a solo toon player. They dont play alts like others do. For all you know that rank 14 person might actually have say, five alts with rank 14+ (which would put them very close to that rank 30 player had it been all on one toon)

    Quoted for truth. :D

    I know it is, because I am the alt person I was making an example of :) 17, 16, 16, 14, 10, and it combines out for about 9 - 9.5 million accumulated AP, wherever that puts me had I been playing one toon all this time, I dont know, but I know it is higher than Centurion.

    Id be rank 25/26 somewhere in there, if id gotten all my AP on just one toon.
    you haven't tasted combat frenzy II yet? such a shame...

    I dont need it to kill you, fengrush light.
    No, just a guild behind you.

    Its this conversation again..

    Three AV, you and a buddy got it on one day, we won.

    XD

    Wasnt even my whole guild (just ... half... wow, half with 3. i need to recruit -.-)
    Yes, this convo was had. Regardless, I don't build for small open field skirmishes, but for large zergs/keep battles. That I can do anything solo in open-field is funny.

    And we build for small battles and ganks, with the caveat that most of us are competent large group builds with a couple gear/skill swaps.

    Then again youre a shield stacking templar, I am a DPS dragonknight, so if you were to actually lose against me heads up, id question your build tbh, im pretty squishy as far as DKs go.

    the main reason i use it isn't for the occasional insta-gib, tho it is hilarious. i'll still be using it all the same once they fix it.

    I got it today and immediately sold out by displaying the title once I zoned out despite all my tough talk earlier in the thread. But I promise not to use it in Cyrodiil. >_>
