[b]In a "shared-world shooter" like Destiny, there is a very high demand for customization.[/b] And with only three races & classes to choose from, there's gotta be some other way to distinguish yourself from others.
[b]As a Guardian,[/b] what kind of character will you play as? [b]What profession is most suitable to you?[/b] Such characterization will help create a better understanding of your character and thus help for when strategizing for group missions.
[b]Paladin:[/b] [spoiler]Guardians renowned for Heroism & Chivalry.[/spoiler]
[b]Strategist:[/b] [spoiler]Guardians specialized in planning Action and Policy.[/spoiler]
[b]Vanguard:[/b] [spoiler]The forefront Guardians specialized in Reconnaissance.[/spoiler]
[b]Practitioner:[/b] [spoiler]Guardians actively engaged in an Art, Discipline or Medicine.[/spoiler]
[b]Commando:[/b] [spoiler]The resolute Guardians actively engaged in Raids & Warfare.[/spoiler]
[b]Paragon:[/b] [spoiler]The proactive Guardians recognized for their initiative during Squad Missions.[/spoiler]
[b]Falconer:[/b] [spoiler]Read below. Feel free to contribute a description for this title.[/spoiler]
[b]Adventurer:[/b] [spoiler]The travelers that seek Power & Wisdom. [/spoiler]
[b]Explorer:[/b] [spoiler]The travelers that seek Knowledge & Wealth.[/spoiler]
[b]Scholar:[/b] [spoiler]The travelers that seek Knowledge & Wisdom. [/spoiler]
[b]Rogue:[/b] [spoiler]The lone wolves who seek Wealth & Power. [/spoiler]
[i](Regardless of which title one may choose, all remain as Guardians;
loyal protectors of The City and Humanity whom owe their lives to The Traveler.) [/i]
Of course these titles, unlike your character, are [b]not[/b] to be permanent; so they can be changed at anytime, but of course with a few restrictions for the sake of gameplay (e.g. you can only change titles [i]within[/i] The City).
This would add a little more [b]uniqueness[/b] to each character as it highlights, not only their motives, but also their style of gameplay. And if you wish, one could use these titles to deceive others.
The title 'Falconer' remains up for discussion. [b]A 'Falconer' is someone who trains to hunt with falcons, hawks and/or other birds of prey, but the idea itself can be associated with many other things.[/b] For example, since a 'Falconer' is someone who relies on their pets during hunts, it can also be someone who relies more heavily on their equipment rather than their own stats. Falconers are also usually associated with 'Rangers', 'Assassins', 'Mercenaries' etc. [b]I'm not quite sure what description to give this specific title, in regards with the game itself, but its too cool of a title to dismiss.[/b]
The title 'Paladin' also remains up for discussion since it limits the element of "Heroism & Chivalry" to that specific profession title. [b]Further ideas [i]will[/i] be taken into consideration so feel free to contribute.[/b]
[b]Which profession title would you choose?[/b]

i wanna be a Beater for being in the beta... i'm just putting it in the title threads n hoping they may add it for beta testers to use >w>
-
This is great seeing all the SAO fans in the room
-
I'd be strategist
-
The explorer and scholar have the same description. Make the explorer more like " a guardian who goes into the world in hunt for the greatest treasures and gear"
-
God's Own Anti-Son-of-a-Bitch Machine Let's his/her enemies have a belly full of lead, and a pool of their own blood to drown in.
-
Our job is to be a Guardian.
-
Add the title Teamplayer. Description: A Teamplayer's only goal is to help his squad as much as possible. He strives torwards helping others achieve greatness. He does not need fame or recognition. He just needs someone to assist.
-
And also, maybe the falconer relies on team mates just as much as he relies on himself. Hand in hand with the paragon title maybe.
-
I really like the idea of this. It adds more of you to your guardian, your ideas and play style. I'd like to maybe add some to your list if everyone likes them (: Nomad/lone wolf- a guardian who fights alone for the whole. Leaving a single red trail, the world is on their shoulders. (I know the game is about teamwork and group experiences but there's always those few) Space pirate/looter- guardians who are in it for the spoils of the journey, nothing more. Maybe even race specific titles? Machinist- exo's have always been unbreaking, unyeilding. Nothing will ever change their oil driven hearts. Starborne- mystical, mysterious, the awoken will never be fully understood, and nor should they. Survivor- humans have always clung onto life, they will always find a way. Maybe some fun ones also? (The/a) random- just a fun title for the nomad/lone wolf title. Bullet sponge- no! Run the other way! Ugh... Such a n00b (Saw this from blaster8766 thanks for the idea :p) Trollingz- i be trolling? No youuuuu be trolling.
-
Add Bullet Sponge: My stupid friend always running into fights without thinking who then cries when I dont revive them the second they go down
-
This sounds great to me!
-
Wow these titles sound cool. I would go with Strategist or Practitioner.

Edited by DrAGoNiiGam3R: 7/8/2013 5:30:14 AMmight be better for titles to be earned rather than just selecting one. If you are playing in a specific way you get a specific title
-
Edited by LugDubh: 6/20/2013 12:18:14 PMWhy don't you post this as a poll topic in the main #Destiny Forum. You'll get a much better response there. Edit; Ah, I see you have.
-
Dear Bungie... PLEASE ADD DEM TITLES! Great Idea!
-
I'm an adventurer. This is starting to feel like D&D.
-
Guardian, Vanguard, Commando.
-
I like the idea, but calling them professions might be a little off, since the guardians job in itself is to protect the city, and reclaim the solar system. I think they'd be better off being linked to the Achievements/Trophies system for each console.
-
I choose to be a pikachu.

Edited by Nemo: 3/27/2014 5:14:16 PMSomebody needs to make this so. Commando! :D
-
With their promoting of customization I think they will prob go deep into character, weapon and item appearance to help distinguish between us and probable have titles that you can earn or level up that would give you certain traits or abilities. But again they are planing to tweak and adjust this for 10 years so they have to start somewhere and then listen to the players as the game goes on to update it and evolve it.
-
Great idea, but I hope for more original names than these. No offense but they're a bit overused. Vanguard is quite unique and I would hope to see more along the likes of that.
-
Man i agree! I put a post like this up too! And i also said paladin! Yea man destiny is way to big to have only 3 classes i hope they add more
-
We get new classes in DLC by the way... Although I commend you on your creativity, grammar and the effort you put into this topic.
-
That is actualy a good idea

When I saw the thread title I immediately thought of a fully decked out Titan in an office job.
