These titles are all live right now I'm assuming. If that's the case, I don't think "Familiar's Pet" is working then.

You have under 40 PM and 20 Mech Lore? If so, then perhaps it's also a function of having a familiar?

Titles are great Wythor, I just have one suggestion though. Could you remove the female req for Cold Witch. There is already precedent with this with the title War Witch that has no gender requirment. There was much debate about this when skill based titles came out and it was handed down by Solomon and Obsden that a Witch could be male or female.

On a side note...Summoning Lord, is this a sign of this to come?

Thanks for posting the requirements for the new titles!

Anyone know what "Frostbitten" does require? I see that Wythor listed it as needing to know Frostbite, but losing it if you have ES, but I've got both and the title.

If anyone noticed any other requirements being off, I'd love to know about it.

Gah, you peoples be quiet about frostbitten, I like having it & having both spells on my main. Only other place she could get it was by the temp title granter in the premie seacaves.

Course, I'm gonna rip a page from there & still a title or two... if frostbitten is removed since one has both es & frb can we get frost warrior then?
I dont know how much Zad & Rinae might fight it since it was a temp title from their lil snowman, but worth asking.

I'd consider the other 'witch' titles to be 'serious' magic titles. Cold Witch, on the other hand, is what I consider to be a 'fun' title, and not necessarily subject to the rules and regulations of the other Witch titles. Cold Witch definitely connotes a female, at least in my mind, and I'm the one who came up with the requirements. :P If you can think of an appropriate version for males, I'll certainly toss it on the pile for consideration. Don't expect any new titles for awhile though, as we are on 'title freeze' status until further notice (and other guilds get their fair share of new titles).

>>On a side note...Summoning Lord, is this a sign of this to come?

Advanced familiars have been planned for years now, so I guess you could technically say that. Truthfully? I added it to the list because it sounded cool, rather than due to any foresight on my part.

>>Can we get Steel cabalist for someone with a number of weapon skills at or above practitioner?

While Aether and Electricity cabals didn't exist historically, I felt comfortable including them in the titles because they could exist in the Elanthia today (since they are elements commonly known about in these modern times). On the other hand, there is no 'steel' element and never was, so by extension there never was and never will be a steel cabal. Thus, no title. Sorry.

>>Anyone know what "Frostbitten" does require? I see that Wythor listed it as needing to know Frostbite, but losing it if you have ES, but I've got both and the title.

Hmm, according to the requirements listed in the system it shouldn't be available if you have Ethereal Shield. I'll have to find out if the requirement is being checked properly in the core title code.

>>

There might not be one in the 'official' history, but there was a Steel Cabal for at least a year possibly longer. It was somewhat supported by staff at the time too.

The focus was for the 'Steel' cabal was on the warrior side of the warrior mage. The crossing guild exhibits another example that seems to perpetuate the potential for a 'Steel' cabal in the form of the arches in the Crossing guild...notice that there is indeed a room in the guild dedicated to Steel.

I have to say, that the best time I ever had in game was back when I was a member of the steel cabal and they organized group hunts every week or so.

I would hope you would reconsider that there is viability for this title as well as an in-game history that supports this group. The warrior aspect of warrior mages is WAY too often neglected, and I think that a society among the warrior mages dedicated to excellence with weaponry can only improve our image of what warrior mages should be.

I'm not saying that there won't be titles based on the warrior aspect of the guild. I'm just saying that 'Steel Cabalist' will most likely not be one of them.

I realize this probably won't happen, but I agree with her. Fire Lion is one that I would love to have, but never will. I just love IP and FRB too much to give them up. Not to mention that would be a lot of TDPs to forget them.

But if it can't be done, then meh. I won't cry over it, as I have tons of other options that I like to play with.

I might have to start training brawling so I can get Hand of the Elements and Fist of the Elements. I like the titles that require spells from all books, but there are only a four (I think) and half of them require brawling!

I feel like by making it easier to get, it will cheapen the unique nature of the title. While it is not hard to reach 345 PM and have 5 fire spells, it is somewhat a fluke for a Mage to have no water spells by that circle range. Fire Lion represents a comittment to Fire that only Fire Cabalist matches.

I think it is fine where it is, but, that is just my opinion.
