Couldn't get to 20 without being defeated...Follow

#1 Mar 26 2009 at 8:19 AM Rating: Decent
Is it worth it to reroll my character so I can get that title or is it not that big a deal? Is it only 1 title or...I don't know. I'm kind of disappointed but I really don't want to have to start from scratch...uggh. Has anyone else messed up and didn't hit 20 without being defeated?

The title means nothing.

Uggh I got to level 18.5 and I can't believe I didn't notice I was doing a fellowship quest by myself :( uggh. So...yeah. I guess I shouldn't have expected getting to 20 being my first character and all...

I guess getting back to level 18 wouldn't be that hard seeing as I am used to the game now. Maybe this time just watch out for fellowship quests, lol.

You don't get a bonus for having X amount of titles? Are there cooler titles than that one? I guess I won't start over then if its just 1 stupid title that I would eventually replace anyway.

IMHO, there are so many titles in this game that you'll never miss that one!

At lvl 60, my main has dozens of them and the funny thing is most of the time I run without any title up at all!

The coolest one I've seen so far is "Friend of The Nine". You get it for completing a bunch of 'fellowship related' quests in and around Moria.

There are also titles acquired through repeated use of some of the emotes if you like that sort of thing...

Titles? You want titles? Just try to avoid earning them. You can't! Honestly don't worry about the undying title. We tend to mock people who put a big emphasis on it. Ooh, so you're "Honoria Who Runs From Danger" /snicker.

You'll earn titles for killing X amount of a certain type of creature, titles for completing X amounts of quests in an area, titles for defeating specific mobs, titles for completing crafting tiers. You'll end up with many to choose from.

And yes, I do go for the titles one earns from receiving certain emotes. One of my favorite titles I like to sport now and then is Yanari the Dull. I also have Yanari the Harassed and Yanari, Pie Eating Champion, among others.

Depends. If you are not all that thrilled with your present character FOR OTHER REASONS, go ahead re-roll. If that is the only reason, I would say roll another toon and attempt the title on it. Keep working on the present toon sans 'Undying' title.

5 of my 7 (regular) characters do not have the title :) hehe...

I remember a post about this a long time ago. It said, if you want that title, you have to be prepared to re-roll.

Since you're not that prepared, then just keep going! You probably won't miss it.

Like others, I run around without a title more often than not. I only do the deeds for the stat bonuses, not because of wanting titles.

Maybe this is where the OP is coming from: This is not WoW's title system. WoW was very stingy with titles, and only had a small handful in the game. I am in my mid-20s and have about 15 to choose from at this point. I have heard most players at the level cap have around 50 or more titles. The Undying title is also one of the more common ones. I did not get it on my first character, but I did get it on the second. However, I never show it because there are many things I am more proud of then just not dying by level 20 (like crafting mastery titles).

I've never made it yet with any character I have played (that's about 30 or so by now). I keep trying, of course, but I got past the point of deleting them and starting over. Got just TOO tired of the newbie areas. And since you get nothing for the title, you won't really miss it if you never have it. Also, some people feel that someone who does have it is a "hanger back" letting other people do the work for them. This isn't true, of course, but the feeling is definitely there in the chats at times.
