✭✭✭✭✭Titles USED to mean something in this game a couple years ago. If you had Stormproof then you were immediately one of the best around, but now Titles are just gimmicks. You have to show that you're good at your role, and that will be decided immediately after the first Mob pull in a Dungeon.
Did this player use Buffs and then proceed to use a rotation that made all the Mobs die quickly? Or did the player just stand there firing off light attacks then die immediately?
If the former is true, the group will stay together and you'll continue the Dungeon. If the latter is true the other higher levels will most likely up and leave the group right there.CP2,100 Master Explorer - AvA Two Star Warlord - Console Peasant - Khajiiti Aficionado - The Clan

The vast majority of the players in this game cannot complete vMA, so, yes, if I see Stormproof in a pledge PUG, I know that the person is competent.
Most vet PvE titles are good indicators of competency. People in this thread look down on those titles and dismiss them for carriage or whatever, but in practice, how often have you seen a "Hist Shadow" or "Mageslayer" in a PUG who didn't know what they were doing? Sure, it's possible that you might meet someone who is wholly incompetent who bought an account, paid for a title, or got carried, but how often does that actually happen? I can tell you the times I've run into that: zero.
For the purposes of knowing that a pledge PUG is competent and not someone spamming light attacks with a bow, any of the vet-content PvE titles will do just fine. Stormproof, Ophidian Overlord, Hist Shadow, Forge Breaker, Assistant Alienist, etc. They're all properly respectable titles. Next level up would be Flawless Conqueror, Coadjutor (vHoF is really about whether you can find two competent tanks), or any of the vet skins. And then above that, Dro-m'Athra Destroyer (why is that person in a PUG?!).Edited by code65536 on October 29, 2017 5:38PMNightfighters ― PC/NA and PC/EU

Did a flawless run on a magplar on second vMA run, never played magplar before, just leveled it to 50 and went straight to vMA... easiest class to do vMA cmon man.
On topic - Flawless Conqueror is your best bet, decent dps and undeetanding of mechanics. Though, my vMA mag builds don’t do more than 20k dps...

It is good enough to get you through all the dungeons with any dps that isn’t outright horrible. And honestly if the group can’t tell the different between someone doing 24k dps and a horrible dps, you are probably better off if they do kick you.4 -

OP isn't bragging.
24K may not be the best DPS rate around, but it's not a DPS rate you get just by playing. You've gotta train, think, and get gear to reach it. And it still places OP among the top 10% players or so.
And, as someone else already mentioned, it's enough to let you complete EVERYTHING in the game.
So yeah. Work on your own DPS instead of accusing better players than you of bragging around.5 -

I have close to 100 runs overall on Mag Sorc, Stam DK, Stam NB and Mag Templar. On the first 3 I have been improving steadily. But with Templar I feel I'm banging my head on a wall. I have put a lot of effort into it. Probably it needs more I guess. I have only started playing vMA in HotR patch so I don't know how it was before that.Edited by Asardes on October 29, 2017 7:10PMBeta tester since February 2014, played ESO-TU October 2015 - August 2022, currently on an extended break

Liley✭✭✭✭No title will prove that you are a good dps. there are a lot people who just get it, because the rest of the group is good and they carry them through.
I suggest, do no death runs in Mazzatun and Cradle of Shadows and put on one of those skins, you'll get as a reward. That should at least show, that you know what movement is and that your dps is at least not bad.
24k on a dummy is not huge, though.Edited by Liley on October 29, 2017 7:13PMPC | EU

✭✭✭✭✭Which {method} will make you go "Ok, this guy isn't a bow spammer", or "Ok, this guy knows his rotations"?
Use an effective rotation and don't spam the bow. Then people will know you can do the job.
Of course it helps a little to move around, stay out of red, stay near the healer and or tank so heals are easier, block when you need to, bash/interupt when you can, manage your resources so your not down to just light attacks mid way through the battle and rezzing dead players.
Being a DPS is not all about doing DPS.
Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.
