its some very cool titles, but would be sooo easy to get in Cata. so they take them out.
This. Give the loners something to strive for. Sometimes I hate trying to get group stuff done because it's hard to rely on people, and having any of these achievements after 4.0 isn't really going to mean much anyway. They hardly mean that much now. I don't even walk around with my "Undying" title on anymore cause it's something like 18 months old ... Having a full set of Tier 6 gear in your bank means you were good then, doesn't mean you're worth anything now. It's why people will still be requiring a specific GS & Achievement for the current content.

Would the removal of these award the Glory of the Raider achievements? Hmmmmm Blizzard is even doing two of these things:
1) Finding a reason to reward people who did the content when it was hard by making the Feats unobtainable.
2) Making the Feats obtainable but keeping them as Feats because of the fact that they don't want it to be mandated in the list of Achievements. This is because all of these had to due with staying alive and some people have a worse internet connection/computer then others therefore giving a greater Advantage to those with more money, this is why the Collector's edition pets and Blizzcon awards are feats of strength and not in game, because they represent those with an economic advantage. Blizzard grants the right to play equally and infinitely for $15 Dollars a month, all of the additional bonuses are purely cosmetic and not a part of the core game. Although I admit I may be wrong with this logic, but it seems pretty true so far.
My guess they become unavailable just like they made Hand of A'dal and Champion of the Naaru when WotLK was coming.

Lol gear + achievements have never been an indicator of any type of skill. The only time you can gauge a players skill, is when you play with him, and watch what he does. THAT is the only time you will ever know that 'guy over there is pro.'
Between players who sit around in full heroic sanc + 277 off pieces, who die in fires because they expect healers to make up for them being terribad, and players who are under geared and actually TRY, I dunno who I would rather bring to a raid at this point.
Shoot for the middle, I suppose? Mediocre gear and somewhat of an ability to stay out of fires?

Don't hate my rig, there's nothing quite like the classics.
Indeed.. Click, then go 'Kills > Honorable Kills.. 1,165,327 HK's ;_;
I hope so even though I am missing those two titles, and I didn't get my h LK kill either but oh well. Anyways, it would be nice that since they are not removing the mounts they can at least remove these titles. Still think mounts should be 100% removed or made very low drop rates but whatcha gonna do.
Correct, in our weekly insanity runs pretty much half the dps core is over or around 15k each fight.
Undying / Immortal can easily be 5 / 10 manned with current gear levels .. and hell it's even easier with so little as you depend on less people.
Personally, I hope Naxx titles / Ulduar titles / ToTC titles and Saratharion titles get removed. Sure, one could point out .. they were prestigious when you got them and that you can epeen flash your early-wotlk dated title, but the fact remains it took effort back in specific ilvl gear and to me .. it would be such a pain to see these 'cata raiders' wear titles that took blood sweat and tears to get.
Free 310% mounts, saves you 5k gold. They should be removed.
And why people shouldn't be able to get titles or mounts? Because it is lame to get those things on level 85 while others worked their asses off at level 80 for them. You had PLENTY of time to get them now. Maybe you should work on getting level 85 achievements, mounts and titles in cata instead of not doing them and waiting for the next expansions so you "have something to do on off nights"...
Everyone who doesn't want level 60, 70 or 80 achievements removed is just greedy. There is no need to get those achievements to progress in the game. There can be plenty of other things to do on "off nights". It is not even fun to do because you can do it with your eyes closed. It's just simple greed, whatever excuse you use for it.
Sorry but that is YOUR opinion. I think that when you want them removed, you are being greedy yourself. If people want to do old content and gain a few outdated mounts or titles, I say sure, go ahead. The fact that you don't want other players to gain those titles seem kinda weird to me, because why does it matter so much?
And yes there are a lot to do on "off nights", but some people like to run old content for mounts / titles / gear / whatever, you gotta live with it

Yes... I just checked myself and I am wondering the same thing as you.
