Would you wear "God" set that kills you, permanently, for a title?

Megabear · June 2017

- "God" set is a 12 piece set - 7 armor, 2 weapon, 2 rings and 1 amulet

- Guaranteed BOE drop from a rare NPC (an Argonian holy man) traveling all over the land with a long respawn timer. Can pickpocket and/or murder but drops only once per NPC.

- Trait is always divine

- Gives you a warning before you equip the last piece of the set

- After you wear the 12 piece God set:
1. Your character will die permanently in 24 hours from the time you wear the last piece of the completed God set (i.e. character is deleted)
2. Your character will not be able to take the God set off
3. It will set all your stats to 1, including health
4. Your character will glow in a color dependent on decisions made during quests. Your character will not glow if no quest related decisions were made.
5. Upon your character's untimely death you will receive an account wide title called "Dies-for-Title"

Would you wear this set for a title?

I wouldn't do it for the title. I would do it for a character I mean to delete anyway as a form of funeral.

Who would die permanently for a measly achievement?

Really? I guess I should expect it to be deleted/closed.

old_mufasa · June 2017

achievement's are per character.... so what would be the point.. as soon as they are deleted no one would know you had it...

Let me edit to show that the achievement is account wide.

Kind of this. Also if it's for the account then just do it on a throw away char.

I updated the topic to account wide title instead. Sorry if you wasted your vote

Aliyavana · June 2017

Yes

If it's acct wide make a useless argonian alt and equip it lol

No

Not to mention he suggest 1 of every stat... so literally all you do in this idea is die - there's not even a sense of achievement to be had. Maybe if this "God" set actually gave godly stats, but then you died for not making use of them. Like if we actually had a system where there was perma-death it would have to be countered by the player not being able to die as easily - anything else just makes no sense.

But I fail to see why anybody would want an achievement or gearset that literally ensures death.

His idea could have worked in theory, until adding the 1 stats lol.... might as well just delete your character, you can't block, dodge, attack or do anything with 1 of any stat, you'd literally have no choice but to just die... completely pointless... who honestly thinks this stuff up?

Not to mention achievements are character locked - so you'd literally earn the achievement only to lose it right away. I mean really OP -_-

When I thought of the set, I was thinking more along the lines of ingame funeral opportunities for characters people delete (I deleted many characters myself). But now that I have posted the topic, it's kind of morbid.

Oh you assume too much. Didn't know achievements are character locked though!

Hamfast · June 2017

No

While the benefits of achievements may be account wide, the actual achievement is only granted to the character that completes it...

No

Please point out my "assumptions" - nothing I said was wrong or untrue - your idea wasn't very well thought out, friend.

No

The Gods must be crazy

Glaiceana · June 2017

Yes

Since the 5th point states that it will be an account wide title, you simply make a character to sacrifice for the title, so why not?

If it was possible, it certainly would be a very odd title/achievement to get lol.

1. There are people that wants the achievement
2. I'm a very smart guy. Ivy league smart.

By god set you mean cheat and get your account banned?

To me it seems rather pointless. Titles mean very little to me in this game. Now if I could wander around as a ghost for doing this I might say yes.

Maybe for a cool title like, 'Doesn't fake the funk on the nasty dunk' but not for something as useless as 'Dies for Title'.

Actually I did think of including exact same thing! But I took it out last minute because I wanted the "reward" to be as narrow as possible. Basically I was curious what the mindset of the community is like when faced with extreme circumstances such as this. Bored more or less

Jollygoodusername · June 2017

Yes

I'm seeing a lot of hypocritical statements here. Not that I'm surprised in the least >_< I used to be a yes-man schmuck like you, then I gained some perspective while serving in the most dysfunctional military branch, the US could offer.

BoE? Account wide? Sure, I'll wear it for an account wide title... I'll pass it off to a level 3 alt, let him die, get the title, and then remake him. Your idea is neat, but logically flawed.

Actually, that was intentional. I wanted to give some wiggle room for those that are actually considering it.

I approve of this weird question.

I might do it - not for the title, but because it's interesting. Not sure if gathering up all the pieces would be interesting enough for me to stick with it, but... maybe.

Yup. That was another reason. I like seeing how people react in these situations. Illogical, or as you call it weird, but some people do it anyway or try to figure out a logical response to it. At times I'm more lenient and leave some "normal" stuff or option in there because I don't want the poll to be completely lopsided. Anyway, I do it for fun and hope that others find it fun as well.
