    Hi @DRAGON_KILLER_HUNTER,

    Thanks for the suggestion! Giving Grand Overlords some sort of visual signifier a bit flashier than a dye is a really fun idea and we can definitely understand why players would want one. Unfortunately, we can't guarantee this idea will be used, but we always love hearing the community's suggestions and feedback and hope you'll all continue to share them in the future.

    Sure, why not? If they give a special mount for PvP accomplishements then they'd have to give a special mount for PvE accomplishments too and that's good for me. Maybe then they'd start updating some of the PvE dye colors to be as good as the PvP ones, too. Balance shouldn't just be about class skills. I like this idea, it would spur some needed reward balancing.

    Yes give those Bleakersexploiter an Free Mount o:)
    Also no of those new Grand Warlord did the Rank like Abraxus or Sankt Fire heal did, i can remember the time where you had an high rank with 30-40, cause the Ap Gaining wasn't doubled and kills gave you 10-300Ap.
    Also Keeps haven't gave you 6k Ap and Resources 1,5k.
    In Overall its pretty easy now to get an GO =)

    No point in rewarding them for this.

    Find a way to reward competence in pvp and put a nice carrot there. Do not reward time based.

    this argument crumbles when you consider the emp/former emp rewards.

    it is true that's it's easier to get GO with the AP changes and events but even still there are fewer GO's running around then former emps. i really don't see a problem with giving GO's something.

    I think rewarding such an accomplishment would be great! It would encourage people to commit to PvP and reward their efforts. Think of the amazing rewards available for trials,etc? Why shouldn't the game reward it's players participating in PvP as well? There should be a reward system for the final 10 levels IMO, each which take FAR longer to complete than any PVE content out there. Final reward should be something VERY cool, such as choice of a rare mount, a HUGE discount that can be applied for a house,etc. Most pure PvE'rs I know are rich because the game rewards that by dropping gold, items,etc. Most PvP'ers I know are poor because they don't get those cash infusions. Let folks be rewarded equally for whatever content in ESO makes them happy I say.

    LOL! vSO HM, vAA HM, vHRC HM, vMOL HM, and vHOF HM in a technical sense give you less than a dye. You just get 50 achievement points.

    You can get the skin and title from the non-HM version.

    Im not a pveer so i dont know the specifics but that makes the pvp rank 50 achieve even worse if u get skins from non hm LOL. Anyway u get goldjewelry, polymorphs and skins for trials that usually takes ALOT LESS time to complete than GRAND OVERLORD.

    True. The only difference would be that one can get to Grand Overlord by mindlessly repairing walls and doors and not even PvPing, whereas clearing vet trials requires skill and practice. On the other hand, you can get carried through trials, but you can't get carried to Grand Overlord. And Grand Overlord does take a lot of time.

    How? Certainly not in the same manner as with a trial.

    You can, theoretically, leech your way there by being present for all the ticks and never, rarely, or badly fighting your way to 64 million AP. Or, on very empty campaigns, PVDoor your way to 64 million AP.

    Its unlikely that someone got GO by doing only that, but theoretically possible.

    But as I've said before, if someone has managed to get 64 million AP and hasn't managed to gain some skill at PVP, I salute them. Its hard to do that much of something and not learn how to do it.

    This thread is so 2014.

    For someone who leached their way to a GO back then, yeah it sure is.

    There's a lot of other people coming up to it now though and I've always felt there is a lack of achievement given from the game for earning over 64million AP.

    I am not sure what you mean by leeching, I have put the time and energy and deserved the achievements. I am not some kind of rapid regen spammer zerg surfing on top of my alliance like alot of new GOs the past few years.

    Also, what I mean by this thread is so 2014 is that these rewards would have been more appropriated if they would have been available 4years ago at release. Nowadays, achieving grand overlord is something we see happening almost everyday.

    I believe that rewarding players for ranking in the top 10 of their faction at the end of the campaign or for capturing many objectives (like the new conquest quests coming up for summerset) is more actual and motivating for players who do spend alot of time in the game, and had got GO a very long time ago.
