Deshiny the "Witness to History" title

Why is this title still shiny anyways? I thought shiny titles are meant to have prestigious value to them. I know it was an AB event title, but still, it should've only stayed shiny around the AB event days. A hard working title like "Dragonbane" is no longer shiny anymore and it did have a valuable meaning to it since not a lot of people could clear Harrowhold around then. Right now, the one and only current shiny title should be "Velik's Champion", and having an old easy event title like "Witness to History" staying shining forever is killing the value of shiny titles.

    I was actually going to make a thread about this sometime soon. In my opinion, "Dragonbane" and "Velik's Champion" should both shine this patch, seeing as "Dragonbane" was a challenging title to acquire and is still relevant with Harrowhold returning as a 20-man dungeon. "Witness to History" wasn't a difficult title to acquire, it was only blocked by the fact you could only run it twice a day. It was a nice shiny title to have at the time but not the patch after it when "Forsaken" lost it's shine and definitely not every patch afterwards.

    I would also say that perhaps old dungeon clear titles such as "Shandra Maniac" and other difficult HM multi-clear titles should become gold like the newer ones, since at the time they represented the hardest dungeon yet they're coloured white like any other basic title.

    " Hard working Title" ... lol.

    AB Title only during Event? How stupid is that? Wow u get a shiny title for 1 week xD. Atleast ABHM Event was something special because t was limited. A special Event, while HH just was a regular content. If u deshine this title, then i want to change red titles like Determined and Master of Timespace to yellow or white because there are too easy to get. Especially SSHm title after nerf lol.

    And how about change Shandramanic from whiote to atleast yellow or red? This Title was hard in the beginning (only red Title for people who cleared it before nerfs).

    Its just a title ..... If u deshine Witness of History many people will complain. Ofc u lose ur 77 clear Titles but u get a new one after a new content, while Witness of Histoy may never come back or get something similiar to obtain new.

    Special Title via a rare Event is better and rarer than a normal 77 Clear Title ... Even 12 Times HH wasnt that hard of work. The only hard work was only get 30 people. For solo player it was maybe some work, but static it was like a piece of cake after the first 2 clears. I even know poeple who have 60+ Clear (with main + alts).


    Unecessary request ... there are other important thing we need to change ...
  • It burns our eyes out, please remove it
    keeping it yellow or even orange is fine, shiny however is not anymore
    and imo its even more reason to remove the shinyness because it was a timed event

    there's an option to turn titles off.









    ... just in case anyone here didn't know

    Everyone knows, why would you think noone knows? its literally one of the first options that come up

    Edit: its about seeing an unnecessary amount of shiny titles related to a temporary content, not dedicated hard work
    if you though im dumb enough that i can't turn it off, gg
    but people like to see titles around them because you know its prestige, and shiny ones are rewarded typically to those that worked hard, achieved mastery in that particular actual content, not something long gone
  • DialooniaDialoonia ✭✭✭
    There was no hard content since VM4 pre nerf. Actually only this title deserve to be shiny for "hard work". Everything other title are just braindead dungeon spam on daily basis ....

    I would like to see customized Title (where u can change Title color like other MMO (Revelation for example). Special title like spam this 77x can be colored dynamic. Also u can color each letter. Atleast u can change title this way. Common who the [filtered] even read white titles nowdays?

    Difficulty of a content is subjective, but there is always a hardest content per patch which comes with a shiny title, which you can work towards, not something that is long gone and you are the only one running around with a shiny title.

    When it was around, for skilled parties it was a braindead dungeon spam as well, just like everything in this game in every patch cycle, but that doesnt justify considering something more of a hard work than other dungeons.
  • DialooniaDialoonia ✭✭✭
    VM4 pre nerf wasnt that spam dungeon. Maybe a handfull people got this title. I think over 90% of all people who obtain determined got it after schm nerf. Not like TSHM or SSHM where everybody had this title.

    But what about old people who got 100 Worldboss kills ? THIS is something work for. Need to time ur WB before they got stealed. And PvP player dont even have a shiny title. Like 500 canyon wins / or win streak. And today nobody really cares for title not ike back in vm1 ... I dont even activate my name+ guild + title over my head because its a unecessary UI element. They could just rename all spam dungeon title to : Braindead Grinder Mark I, II, II ,IV , V and so on for every upcomming content.

    But requesting something unecessary is just stupid, there a plenty of other thing we need to fix. PvP, Some Bugs, Lags, Game optimizing, Challenge Contents.

    Have you even cleared a single Harrowhold? Answer the question first before you make comments about "hard work" and difficulty of it. Even though getting a group of 30 people was the hardest part of all which is true, then why not get a group of 30 people to do it then? You said that you know people who had cleared it because they play smart in knowing the mechanics and not making a mistake to wiping the raid. So anyways, how was your Harrowhold experience? Please do not make an excuse saying "I didn't do it because I never had a group of 29 others to do it with" because you can at least try to make friends or get others in the server and community to do Harrowhold with. As for the Witness to History ABHM event, it wasn't even a hard/special dungeon. This wasn't the ABHM from VM3 patch for the 'Surgeon' title, which at least that title was prestigious and had a name to its value around then, unlike the ABHM's event one from VM6 patch. It was wasn't even hard to obtain and clear ABHM from VM6 patch either, unless you're not playing your class correctly and have hard time knowing the boss attacks and mechanics. I would even say that the ABHM event title was way easier to obtain than another easy clearing dungeon like TSHM's 'Master of Timespace' title.

    Let's deshiny all titles permanently! Then everyone will stop complaining :^)
  • Group 1: I can't have it so no one can have it. Waah wahh. And the rest of that hypersensitive tumblr trash crying.

    Group 2: Although I have it, I can't be inconvenienced to turn off titles and I as well feel entitled because I'm a gross whale.

    Group 3: I turned off my titles. And even if I didn't, who cares, someone has a different preference in title usage than me. To each their own. There are much more serious things in this game that need to be tended to rather than catering to my whiny preference.

    Be more like group 3 and complain about important things.

    because making a simple title un-shiny is what will make this game better

    yes perfect insight
