just get rid of them, completely. do not let parry influence titles at all.

These titles detract from the whole point of having a title system, every character above level 20 is garunteed to have one, simply because you DO get hit no matter what, be it by an archer, spellcaster, or dragonfly (oh how i hate those dragonflies).

Who's with me?

better question - who's not with me.

I agree...I'm tired of being a fencer...If it were possible people should be able to choose from a list of titles for their given proficiency...EG if I were a Swordsman, I could choose a title from the list.
Swordsman
Sword Master
Fencer
Duelist
Samurai
General

...Stuff like that.

I was all reading this and thinking "What's wrong with Axe Parry titles inparticular?" ;)

Whole title system will be supplemented with one where you can acquire new titles that actually do things (with some luck).

This reminds me of a great Terrance and Phillip joke.

Phillip: Excuse me, sir. Do you know who farted?
Terrance: He sure did!
Phillip: What's the person's name?
Terrance: Who!
Phillip: The guy that farted!
Terrance: Who!
Phillip: The person that passed gas!
Terrance: Who passed gas!
Phillip: Now why are you asking me?
Terrance: That's the man's name!
Phillip: That's who's name?
Terrance: Yes!
Phillip: Look, buddy, all I'm trying to find out is what's the guy's name that farted.
Terrance: What's the guy that drank his own urine.
Phillip: Who!?

Anyway, I voted no, because I like the fact that you get a much higher level when parry is counted as well.

It saddens me that you go to Terrance and Philip instead of Abbot and Costello :|

fairly sure that only people with the wizard title have voted no :|

i guess they dun realize they'd be getting a different, title, and if i remember right - none of the magic-related titles sound stupid or anything :\

My information.
Rather than totally removing all parry titles & how parry effects titles; why not make a toggle option that'll let you choose between parry taking effect or not?

Since removing the only title reserved for pure wizards is kind of lame -_-

So, to make it better, have that... an option for client-side only that'll toggle whether or not they want to see parry titles. It could be located in the advanced options area, where you would usually set a decal limit (in most mods at least) :D

I hope I'm not included with those people; since I replied based on the poll, should parry-titles be removed, and am against it but all for making them show up based on a toggle client-side.

No, what I mean is, is that the topic title is "Axe parry titles.".

Some people think that this poll is only about the axe parry titles, while Squirrel's idea is to axe (as in: the verb "to axe", as in: "to remove") all of the parry titles.

Conclusion: this topic's title should be: "Remove parry titles.".

I haven't even voted because I personally don't care.

Again --- simply make it a toggle option, as a best possible compromise. Otherwise, the current title system should stay :)

I think the server decides the titles, so I couldn't filter it on the client as an option. It'd have to be up to the host.
