What if titles gave buffs?

    Well, I mean, water ruins bows, so if it's very deep, the bow won't be usable anymore, anyway. :p

    Crafting Titles that gave Crafting Buffs would be great, but that is probably as far as I would take it.
    Any connection between your reality and mine is purely coincidental.

    nah not needed tbh... especially combat related buffs would be OP af

    and For crafting or fishing...well they wont b eused alot anyways, except maybe on crafting chars...but imagine change your title in a 10min interval to accomodate for the content you play :sweat_smile:

    These stuff would make every single person to go with titles that provide biggest buff for the content that player does. It would be boring to see such thing.

    Let's have "the bland commoner" giving +0.1% Healing, +0.1% Damage, -0.1% Incoming Damage.
    No other title giving a bonus, just this one. I would be really entertained to see people using it.

    If the title is not self-insulting, I reject this proposition.

    That said, if titles could be recognized by NPCs and allow them to offer up additional dialogue regarding the title's source. That might be interesting.

    Example:
    Player with Master Angler: *talks to chef*
    NPC: "How has the fishing been going lately? Been wanting some fried catfish for a while now. If you have any, care to trade?"

    Maybe the guards could say "I've got my eye on you." or something if you got Master Thief or Assassin or something similar.

    Okay, that would be a lot of work, but it would be ****ing cool. If you had NPC reaction barks based on your currently equipped title? Especially if your alliance war rank titles were faction specific.

    I mean, yeah, I am talking about adding a lot of audio clips, and it's probably not worth it, but that would be amazing.

    Title buffs might be nice if they were only for crafting, fishing etc etc etc...Nothing dps, tanking, or healer buff-wise

    Granted, there are the elitist that are far from elite that would kick people from their GF group if they did not have a good title, but that is not the reason the idea is a bad idea. It is really just not needed, does not provide a real benefit to the game and is just something else to add server stress and balancing issues for Zos.

    No, because having to complete certain content to gain the buffs would be the new meta. Not everyone has access to all the content. Also, it would be just another tier for some groups to discriminate with.

    It is a rare mind indeed that can render the hitherto non-existent blindingly obvious. The cry 'I could have thought of that' is a very popular and misleading one, for the fact is that they didn't, and a very significant and revealing fact it is too. - Douglas Adams

    A Buff..- No
    Main reason...ZoS would f it up and wouldn’t work as intended anyways...

    Better Rewards..- Yes
    Give more Unique Furniture, Mounts, and other Cosmetic (Weapon Skins, Adornments) to make Achievements more interesting to more people than just Completionists.

    Still feel that Grand Overlord rank in PvP should unlock an Alliance specific mount...

    Buffs, no.

    Achievements already give dyes so titles could give a very faint glow (lighting effect) to make them more recognizable.
    Would be cool with PVP ranks too.

    No thank you.

    I select race purely for cosmetic reasons - and I suffer a penalty for it.

    I choose to go without title purely for cosmetic reasons. Even if I chose to display a title (perhaps if there were simple titles like 'Healer' or 'Tank') it would be purely for cosmetic reasons. I do not wish to suffer more penalties for my cosmetic choices.

    If the buffs had no impact on combat, maybe.

    Examples could be a reduction in harvest times, fishing buffs (so master angler could be more efficient fishing in DLC zones), reduction in cost of porting, reduction in cost of repairs (for master crafter?).

    I think overall, I'm not a fan of anything that encourages more grinding.

    Master Angler would be the only one that should give you a buff, that buff being having the will to live until the next zone release where we Master Anglers can drown our sorrows catching more fish...

    Yeah i'm all for it.

    Give all the trial No death Hm Speed run titles a buff that increases your damage done by 150%

    Give Grand Overlord the ability to 1 shot any player with a lower alliance level than you

    Give flawless the passive buff of never being able to die. Ever.
