Player Narci of Nordrassil thinks the game needs a little more flavor. More cool looking tabards with clickable particle effects and titles earned through means other than PvP. CM Vaneras agrees.Vaneras confirmed that more titles will be introduced into the game, though he didn't say what titles, when or how they will be earned. He also said that older PvP titles will be reintroduced into the game, but couldn't give us a timeline on when that will happen.
As for tabards, he couldn't confirm any plans to add more to game. But he did express the personal opinion that he would like to see more. More designs, more ways to quest, craft and loot them. And, let's face it, more tabards is good thing to cover up our mismatched visible armor.
What do you think of more titles and tabards? What titles would you like to see? What tabard designs would be cool? Should you get a tabard for killing Illidan or some other large accomplishment in game?

I always liked the old PvP titles. The character I'm playing now was only a lowbie alt when Blizzard did away with the ranking system, and I wish he'd been 60 so I could display the rank now. Blood Guard was about the coolest title ever.
Grinding for gear was awful, but the ranks that went along with it were fun to get (until you missed a week, of course).

Playing an undead makes you not care about tabards. They end up tiny and squished and you can't really see them.

i feel that more titles and tabards should be added, the game is heavily based on gear, but sometimes its nice to have other status symbols that show you killed someone / completed a monumental quest. new titles is a cool idea.. sick of my alt only being scout, and tabards are always fun, but if things get out of hand with them we should have a tabard closet in the bank

Tabards for each of your faction. Exalted with the Gnomes? Get a Tabard with a gear on it. Tauren Exalted? A hoofprint maybe. Stuff like that. I can see some potential.

Every faction should have a tabard that you can purchase at Exalted, there really isn't any reason not to. Tabards are fun.
I really wish they'd rework the reputation gains for Arathi Basin and Warsong Gulch, so that people who started playing after the PVP system was revamped have a chance at getting the Conqueror/Justicar titles.

I love tabards and wish there were more of them! I loved how my Drae got a tabard for finishing out quests in Bloodmyst Isle.
I also appreciate the tabard when my female human gets an armor upgrade for chest or legs, and it is so distastefully slutty, which happens almost all the time. The tabard does well to cover up.
I think there should be random tabards all about, with random cool designs. Things you could chance upon in random chests, like the random pets and mounts scattered about.

I would be all for more tabards if we get a "Tabard Ring" to store them in. I'm pressed for bank space enough as a Druid w/ multiple sets and a billion rep items, pvp tokens, heroic badges, etc.

How about The Tabard of the Chicken. It appears on you and cannot be removed when you are kicked from a BG for AFKing. If anyone does a /chicken to you while wearing it, you will be feaed for 5 seconds.

There's a great system with Lord of the Rings Online where you earn titles for deeds you've done. For example, if you make it to level 4 or level 6 without dying, you have the option of turning on "... the wary" in your name, so "Frodo the Wary". It's pretty neat, and you can choose whether to use any you earn or not.

I regret missing out on the Argent Dawn tabard. I really wanted that. You'd think, being at exalted, that I would get that option. Never! Stingy Argent Dawn.

if you were able to get the tabard which you received of for helping defend the portals when BC first came out you will notice the tabard has a click able action.... i mean it just does a arcane looking blast but i think adding custom action to tabards will be cool. of course not like talents or actual action but something shiney and notable for things like videos and SS's.

Fuck yes, give us Skyguard/Ogri'La titles please. "King of the Ogres" or "Skyguard General" would be so awesome.

How about armor dyes? Blood red FSW would look pretty sweet.

I always liked the usable action function on the tabard of the protector. I like the idea of more tabards, then I look in my bank. I think almost every Outland faction has a tabard you can get at exalted.
I think it would be cool to get titles to choose from when you're exalted with different factions. Similar to Justicar for alliance with the PvP.
I can see it now:
Shroomhead—title reward for exalted with Sporregar

I like the idea of titles being handed out for PvE as well as PvP. If you completely clear SSC or TK a title should be awarded to you so that people know it! Just like the old PvP titles.

I completely agree with the lack of bagspace. I have exalted with 11 different factions, can I get a tabard that shows small symbols of all of them? Or a title like 'friend of everyone'?

I agree, #8 -- although I'd be happier if they simply gave us a choice in the look: "Ya want da hoochie mama version or the version practical for wearing outside the bedroom?" :) I can tell you this for nothing, Blizzard: this kind of attire is not going to cut it in chilly Northrend!
