They should put at least some token rewards in for Exiles, even if they compromise and don't put in full fabled PVP gear.

Exiles should be able to get SOMETHING from their kills.

titles are both good and bad.. the bad part is it makes people not want to fight and be huge fame whores because they dont want to lose their precious title, but the good part is it gives people something to work for. some people appreciate titles some done w/e

here is my fix to the overall issue with pvp and titles

1. Make EVERYONE you kill give fame depending on their title (hunter 1pt. slayer 2 pts. general 10 pts or w/e)

2. If you die in pvp you do NOT lose fame

3. make the number of points incredibly hard to attain.

4. make fame deteriorate, say you are gone for a month dont expect to be a master when you return (or even close to it)

5. make the higher titles competitive, like only a certain number of people can have this title on the server or w/e.

these few things would change how people pvp for the better i think.
since people wont lose fame when they die they wont evac at the sight of someone with fame on track if the odds arent in their favor, or an even match.
also this will get people out pvping more because since fame deteriorates people that want a cool title will always want to be out trying to stay on top.

so basically what you get is less fame whores, more pvp. pvp = fixed (for the most part)

I'd love to see this, and this would bring in alot more people to the PVP servers. My only change would be to make it impossible to get fame from those who are unranked because of bots.

Under this system, imagine how much plat an Overseer could make selling fame.

Just completely remove the fame system instead.

Still the best idea. Would love to see this or something similar happen.

well selling fame is illegal and you can get banned for it so sure they could make a lot, but an overseer can make even MORE now because they take a fame hit when they die

thats one idea but lots actually like the titles...

but if there are no titles give people something to work for. sure pvp gear but most is easily replaced with raid gear.

yes some people dont raid, only pvp and solo/group stuff and dislike titles but that is a small population

the people that pvp the most and want something to look forward to in pvp are also the ones that raid too.

I really would like a fame meter. also, I concur lfg, pvp gear for the exiles, its only fair imho, atleast for me if I exiled it would be for all the pvp not unfair raiding, and I think a lot more people would if they added in pvp gear.
