Hi,
Currently titles for Auric Maelstorm surviving 5 times and Auric surviving 10 times are not honestly obtained by maybe 90% of the players. Players simply leave when they’re down so it won’t count as a death for the title… Resulting in mass desertion of players during aurics sessions, leaving the other players with bots. It happenend also more and more often to join a session where 2 or 3 players are already out.
This title thing was a good idea, it was designed for good players to show with pride that they’re total badass, but for now, looks like that everybody is going to obtain the titles this way…
So if you decide to fix it, maybe it will be fair to reset the title for every one, so only the true survivors can show it.

But to be fair people were doing that before the titles for the achievement already.

Not sure how this would be achieved without affecting those who lost connection or similar (not uncommon in DT).
Maybe just getting rid for the need of consecutive wins and just require x amount of wins, whether consecutive or not. That would fix it imo

I’d say that for the achievement itself, yeah sure whatever I don’t care. Its the fact a good idea (special player titles) has been ruined, simply by misjudgment on the designers part, I’m bothered about.
If people want to blitz through achievements the dirty way, I get it. Naturally builds will be invented purely to speed up a grind.
But zero deaths achievements with shiney golden letters titles?! oh boy, what a waste 
I kinda felt the same about the skulls portrait (for a bunch of kills). It was something that generally showed at least some experience. Now I live in a world where people with that frame can literally be Wiley Coyote levels of unlucky.
To avoid affecting those who lost their connection maybe they can consider death only when the player leave the session via the game menu and also if he alt-f4 when he’s downed but not dead yet…
To me, people quit exactly often as before the title
Honestly I do not think that penances like are good… but anyway Fatshark has a lot of more serious stuff ti fix
Just my opinion, of course

Exactly, there are more Auric Maelstorm survivors in the hub than rejects, people grind this title in an unfair way, quitting if they are down, leaving all the other player (honest ones) with bots. Is unfair and toxic behavior, Auric is now difficult to do, not because of the actual difficulty, but because players quit.

I have not noticed that. What’s your timezone?
Honestly the penance just feels not thought out, the “In a row” part of the penance is what causes all the issues, people just alt+f4 to not lose their streak.
And let’s also not forget how the game can throw you into an losing game (spawning you in the middle of 3 downed teammates and an entire army of enemies) or just straight up into a loss screen (not sure if this causes the penance to reset)

I spent 2 hours trying to get an auric maelstrom to start from the beginning today, for penance reasons. It did not happen once. I was jumping into games and back out for 2 hours straight and not once did I get actually get to do a mission from the start.
