Useful Titles

[Reynhart]

Here’s an idea to make some content more appealing.

I’m not really talking about dungeons and raids since gear reward is already an incentive…even if it can be a bit clumsy.

I’m talking about mounts, minions, Gold Saucer activities, etc…
What if you could equip titles to get some bonuses ? The inspiration for it comes from FFXI (Yes, I know it’s taboo) and more precisely, from Abyssea (Even taboo-er), with the Atma system. Atmas were Key Items you gained by killing some Notorious Monsters or doing quests that offered some passive bonuses to your character, and you could equip three of them at the same time.

For example, you take the time to breed your chocobo and spent a lot of time in chocobo racing. If you managed to reach the top rank, you gain a title that increases mount movement speed by 100%
What if, by earning the highest Triple Triad achievement, you’d gained a title that increases the amount of GSP you gain by trading cards tenfold ?

I’m pretty sure a lot of people would find those interesting and unique rewards, and ones that don’t really touch the balance between jobs, gear, or even the importance of other content.

Of course, you could also have titles boosting your stats in all of them, as long as those titles are really the goal you want to reach. For example, titles gained for leveling jobs, completing a relic or clearing raids wouldn’t give any bonus.

You will be surprised to hear that we already got that for one title! I dont know the english name but its the one you get for 30 minions that "follow you around" (it has mini-minifilia as symbol) - equip that title and even minions that wont normally react to emotes due to their charactaristic will do now!

That being said: I'd like to see more easter-egg titles like that! They dont have to boost your stats (actually, I wouldnt like that at all because your title would only become another type of equip then...) but something like... "Hey, you got the title from winning chocobo races - use that and your chocobo will move faster"

A title for a number of mount unlocked is something fun imo !
We already have a "minions' collector", what about mounts ?

but i don't want to use a title wich i hate just because it has this specific bonus added.

i like your idea in general, but not tied to the titles. tied to the achievments, okay, but i don't want to use my Chocobo Trainer title to run faster, because i really like to use my of Dragons Deep title for glamour reasons >.>

I don't care for this myself. I like titles for what they are, a statement about your character.

My bf likes melee jobs and WAR. What is his title? Grandmaster of War. It fits him and his character, so he uses it. I don't want to see everyone with the same title only because it is the best. That is what will happen to them.

I am all in for ways to differentiate ourselves since we all are just about copies of each other except the glamours we choose. I don't think this is the way to do that.

Please leave titles as they are, another type of glamour and nothing more.

Don't worry, one year later, we'll have glamour title

In all seriousness, it doesn't really have to the actual title that gives bonuses, but something you gain at the same time, especially if you want to equip 2 or 3 of them at the same time.

I remember how in Aura Kingdom, you just unlocked titles as you progressed and simply changed to a better one as soon as you had one... I like my title, and I very much want to keep it and not change to another one for stats. Some active buff that doesn't change anything about your appearence okay, some system where some achievemts unlock buffs you can pick between, and they give you a boost to something related to it, examples having been mentioned already but don't add obvious benefits to titles.

No thanks, I don't want to have to use specific titles for the best bonuses, I want to use the titles that I like not ones for the best bonus. If this was implemeted everyone would be using the same best title. No thanks.

Titles are for vanity, nothing more.

Once you put actual stat (impo, run speed is a stat ) bonuses to title they become a must, a job to gain, rather then a personal goal that you can casually work for.

Vote: Nay

If they did add something like this, I would hope it's only for unlocking the title, not needing it to be set.
