Also, I think the Ancients are weaker than the Nephalem, because the Ancients were once human, and they serve Bul-Kathos. Bul-Kathos is a true Nephalem, just like Rathma. The true Nephalem are the ones that start clans and orders.
"Ancient" sounds more powerful in our mind, but only because we don't know the true meaning of "Nephalem" and where it comes from. Its based on the Hebrew 'Nephilim', which means 'Sons of God'. I think they are described as giants. They are practically Gods on Earth, moreso than Ancients. Ancients is like 'been there for a hell of a long time'. But Nephalem is like 'been there since the very beginning'.
Edit: Oh yeah, and "The Ancient" would be cooler if it was changed to "The Ancient One".

There is also the Quest-based images that we can use. I'm not sure which ones I like better, Quests or Skills.
The Specter 0-0 The Zakarumite 1-9 The Faithful 10-49
Oh yeah that's cool, you should switch some of the quest icons with the skills. The last one with the angel that should be an icon, but don't change the whole system.
Wish we didn't have to have zakarum titles. Who the hell wants to be a sexton?
Sex is latin for six. What's wrong with Sexton. They got some cool spells.
I like the quest Icons.

Not the most Diablo-esque titles are they, which was one of the main points for this thread.
To suggest new, more Diablo-esque titles.

This list is pretty good too, except for the Dragon and the Paladin.

What about this
The Peon 0-9
The Town Crier 10-49
The Mercenary 50-199
The Warrior 200-499
The Priest 500-999
The Paladin 1000-1499
The Horadrim 1500-1999
The Edyrem 2000-2999
The Nephalem 3000+
The Great Dragon himself 5000+
I would roughly change that to:
The Specter 0
The Villager 1-9
The Town Crier 10-49
The Mercenary 50-199
The Warrior 200-499
The Lord 500-999
The Duke 1000-1499
The Count 1500-1999
The Horadrim 2000-2999
The Edyrem 3000-4999
The Ancient One 5000-7999
The Nephalem 8000+
Btw, a Nephalem is the equivalent of Trag'Oul's right hand man (Rathma is a Nephalem).

Eh doesn't really sound good I think is what I'm trying to say. Cantor sounds weird too.
They are the official names of Zakarum priests. Doesn't sound weird to me.
SO lets see, there is;
The Zakarum ranks
The Specter 0-0 The Zakarumite 1-9 The Faithful 10-49 The Zealot 50-199 The Sexton 200-499 The Cantor 500-999 The Hierophant 1000-1499 The Council Member 1500-1999 The High Council Member 2000-2999 The Que-Hagan 3000-4999 The Ancient 5000-7999 The Nephalem 8000+
the Zakarum ranks with various images as well. (This is technically 4 different options)

Link has come up with a bit of a neutral-holy list. Someone else could come up with an evil list.
I wouldn't really call it neutral-holy. Or add holy at all. It's more of a pure neutral, as I could fully see Rathma going and fighting Heaven or Hell, should either want to attack Sanctuary...

I don't understand the multiple skill thing. Do we get to pic?
You feel me?
Alright, I'll add some more to that list.
We haven't even officially decided on Zakarum yet, this is just an example. But yes, I am biased towards this example lol.
I added a few more skills too.
