[edit] Names

how do the name reservation work.. do i need to make a plaync account or is a normal GW account enough? 90.184.169.229 20:45, 16 November 2009 (UTC) Okay, I know I'm going to feel really stupid after I get the answers back, but I really wanted to know. I saw that they switched over to account based, but I just wanted a little clarification on this. Does that mean that if I have character "Bob" and character "Jack" on GW1, and on Bob I add a certain title and on Jack I add a certain hero, will character "Tim" on GW2 get both the title and the hero? Thanks in advance for answering my stupid questions! -«troy frostwind» 04:21, 7 July 2008 (UTC)

I don't know, but I'm sure we will find out after this weeks update. --Arduinna

13:11, 7 July 2008 (UTC)

Yes, I don't think that is a stupid question and I think we are all wanting the answer to that. I hope it is like that and not like. "Bob's" achievements only go to "Bob's" great great grandson. Which would be one characters achievements go to only one character on GW2.

[edit] Hall of Monuments; Are we wasting our time and money??

what is the point of a HoM i mean there is no point right -jo jo

Hi Gaile.

Tried to ask you about HoM when you were in Shing Jea today, but I don't know if I got a good answer. Many players are wondering how the connection between HoM and Guild Wars 2 are going to work. We have had a few discussions about this in my alliance recently but we don't seem to find a good explanation of how its going to work. The one explanation we think is the most accurate is that one character from Guild Wars 2 will inherit the HoM from one of the characters from Guild Wars, but how would that work if I create a Charr? Charrs and Humans are not related to one another. While I was in Shing Jea, I saw a lot of players that was questioning the fact that only the names from Guild Wars was going to be inherited to the Guild Wars 2 account. If thats the case, then we have been wasting our time and money to max out our HoM:s. I think ArenaNet really needs to clarify how the connection between the 2 games are going to work. If players realize at the release of GW2, that they have been wasting a lot of time and money to max their HoM, nobody knows for sure what players reactions are going to be like. You might not be able to reveal all the secrets but you could atleast tell us if we are wasting our time or not. Thanks, Arthas The Warrior -- Treasure Boy 23:01, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

Oh really, why cant people just read the archieves? It has been said over and over and over and over, that gaile has no news on this as its too early and that no one is forcing you to max the HoM, so if you don't want to take the chance then wait til gw2 comes out and then try and max everything. until then however anet and gaile owe you nothing and that includes answers to this question. *shakes head at the demanding tone some people use when asking questions* -- Salome 23:12, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

Because the archives aren't exactly prominently placed. I'm betting the HoM is just going to be a room you can visit to drive home exactly how little you accomplished in those four thousand hours of your life. :P --71.229.204.25 23:16, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

No, You are NOT waiting your money for HoM. But know since everyone is wildly farming, title maxing etc. The end rewards may just be luke warm. I still think HoM is a good idea. But chose what you want to max. Maxing it all is a utter waist. 68.151.27.108 23:53, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

As Salome has implied there have been many discussion on this subject, that in itself tells you something about the interest players have on this subject. Just as you are wanting answers there are many, many players who waiting with you. The answers for the growing questions on the Hall of Monuments seem to be very far off, which is frustrating many players but this page is not for that. Gaile has moved previous discussions from this page in regards to this subject, I suggest you look in the Hall of Monuments page for any updated information and keep an eye on it because that is where updates may be made. House Of Furyan 00:04, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

titles are a waste of time... end of story. 24.141.45.72 02:11, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

Different folks, different strokes. If you want to grind for titles, go ahead. enjoy til your heart's content. HoM isn't a required thing to have for GW2 but will certainly make you feel like you've faithful to GW. Renin 02:16, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

Yes, maxing titles is a waste of time.......but then again so is playing video games. Right now I doubt there are any hard and fast answers to the questions you ask, only intents, the actual how, and what may not be answered yet. Just be patient, and play the game for what it is right now, not speculate about what it might possibly be. Med Luvin 16:05, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

what annoys me the most is that there are "account wide and character" titles.. HoM should have been for just ONE of your characters but all you titles from you whole account count towards HoM. Ive maxed my hall, but i really cant say its been fun deciding what character i would max it with. I the end, since i have not heard otherwise, i think its a total waste of time. The whole idea is cool, but the implementation and reward system is unfair. For one that it has to be armor sets, two that you have to have 11 destroyer weapons and three that you have to do everything over again if you want another character to gain the same "mystery" benefits for GW2.

First, for the comment mentioned by Med Luvin above, if you think playing video games is a waste of time, i ask, why are you monitoring this wiki? and if it's just to place those types of comments, i think we'd all thank you to stop. But on the other subject, A-net will probably have some sort of way to distinguish who's hall your character will inherit, syaing i'm the great granson of so-and-so, etc. in teh character customization screen. As fo rthe other races, i can only draw a blank on how it will all tie to together. And if it was only our names beign passed on, what's the point of a whole HoM, so lets all be confident that there will be rewards for us to reap in Gw2, kinda like the biggest, best pre-order package ever. Lord Zepherr 09:13, April 24, 2008 (UTC)

Don't waste your time the rewards will suck like the bonus items. They won't be worth anything anyway because there untradeable.Think about it over 1,000,000 people probly will have the same reward because they filled the valor momument. So whats the point?!?!wiiman00 03:03, 24 October 2008 (UTC)

I have a question about the rewards. Will it matter witch titles or minis or armors you have to get different rewards? For example, will the devotion reward be just for dedicating 20 mini pets or will it matter which mini pets you get? Like will i get something different for having a bone dragon compared to an asura? Same thing with titles. What if i never completed UW or FoW? Will i be missing out on certain rewards for GW2? Also, say I have all my mini pets on one character's HoM but all my titles and accomplishments are on another character. Will that affect anything in GW2. It's frustrating to not know because I don't know what character to put everything on.

[edit] HoM devotion question

→ moved from User talk:Gaile Gray

If I have added a minipet in my HoM and sell my dedicated minipet then it will still be in my HoM. So does that mean you get still the reward in GW2 , if it is in your hall of monuments, but not anymore in your storage or inventory? Or do you need to keep it in your storage and inventory to reccief the reward for it in GW2? Death Sligher 12:23, 16 February 2008 (UTC)

After it's dedicated, it can be sold or destroyed. Same goes for all monuments. You can salvage armor and destroyer weapons for scrap once they are added to the hall.--Pyron Sy 15:33, 16 February 2008 (UTC)

And then you still will get reward in gw2? Death Sligher

15:34, 16 February 2008 (UTC)

If it's in your hall, it's going to count for the reward. So, yes.--Pyron Sy 15:39, 16 February 2008 (UTC)

Of course, nobody has said what the reward is yet. So it might not be anything you wanted. Sadie2k 01:37, 17 February 2008 (UTC)

I thought the designers had said that the devotion alter was the only one which they weren't certain was going to have rewards in GW2. Like all the rest will, but they haven't decided if minipets will equate any reward in gw2. Which kinda makes sense to me, as thats kinda like getting a present for getting a present -- Salome 04:11, 17 February 2008 (UTC)

If that's been said, I hadn't heard. All I know is that the word is you don't need to retain an item after it's been added. There's no telling what reward, if any, you actually get.--Pyron Sy 04:58, 17 February 2008 (UTC)

That would seem out of place to have the Devotion monument not give a reward considering this:

" Then, when Guild Wars 2 arrives, each of these monuments will correspond to special features your Guild Wars 2 characters can "inherit" from your own legendary past, giving you access to exclusive titles, companions , weapons, attire, and miniatures. These inherited items are unique: there is no other way within Guild Wars 2 to acquire them." Quote from the Hall of Monuments (may be out of page and need an update if this is now wrong)

Please notice the word each. Anet hasn't confirmed any solid information about the Hall of Monuments bar what has already been released which is very limited, causing a bit of confusion and a lot of questions from the playing community. The Hall of Monuments page is probably the best place for this question. Sligher, might I suggest you check this page Monument of Devotion page. House Of Furyan 05:29, 17 February 2008 (UTC)

I think there's no point asking about it. We'll know when they've made an official announcement. They haven't made any announcements because they're not ready to commit to anything yet, so it's pointless to ask. They just aren't 100% sure of how it will work. They're not waiting for a date to tell you... they're working on it so they have something definite to tell you in the future. -- ab.er.rant

06:22, 17 February 2008 (UTC)

I was only asking if I would need to keep the dedicated items in my storage to get a reward if they give one. If there will be a reward wasn't the question. Death Sligher 14:33, 17 February 2008 (UTC)

The question of GW2 rewards is a very hot topic at the moment; it's inevitable that any question even tangentally related to the topic of rewards will spawn the above discussion. To actually answer your question: you don't need to keep dedicated items. As long as it's in the HoM, you will get a reward for it -- the original item can be sold or even destroyed and you will still be rewarded. Assuming there is a reward for that specific item, of course. ^^ --Mme. Donelle 06:58, 7 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] HoM

→ moved from User Talk:Gaile Gray

Referring to this post has there been any other word on customizing the 'rearrange' algorythm? I am regretting adding all my titles now because I cannot display what I would like to display at the same time... IE. if I want to display Legendary Cartographer, there is no way I can display my Master of the North or Kurzick title at the same time, as they are too far apart on the list or rotation. Whereas, if I had of waited, watching others HoM's and seeing what the statues look like and hand-selecting my personal 5, I'd be able to display those without a problem. Any idea when(if) this will get looked at and possibly changed? — Rappy 00:50, 17 February 2008 (UTC)

Maybe it could be made, so player could choose from the list which titles to show (of course, he could only choose as many titles as there can be shown). --Шєвч [TALK] @ 09:54, 17 February 2008 (UTC)

I have not heard of any changes planned to Hall of Monuments. If I learn more, I will of course be happy to relay it. -- Gaile

06:13, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

I think that would be a great thing for the devs to upgrade in the HOM. Make it more user-friendly. :)

Foxysheri 02:35, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

Yea... it's somewhat ironic that they called it "rearrange" when it's really just "rotate". -- ab.er.rant

02:49, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

Something along the lines of a drag and drop feature, I'm sure it wouldn't be to difficult to add in and plus would be more user friendly. I myself having 33 achievements in my HoM makes it hard for me to get a good set with the current "rearrange" button, especially with all the maps I own :/ --Kickass

09:31, 25 June 2008 (UTC)

Or a "remove from" option would work too, allowing you to remove and re-apply titles. I thought I recalled seeing the ability to remove stuff from one of the other monuments (mini-pets maybe), so if the functionality is there elsewhere, would seem the easiest route to fix this issue. -- Alesain 00:24, 27 June 2008 (UTC)

Just checked HoM, I guess I was seeing things with the remove option on mini's. But it's an idea at least! ;P -- Alesain 00:29, 27 June 2008 (UTC)

Yes a remove option would do the trick for my dire rainbow phoenix and dire jingle bear. I can sell them without any problems to a pet-trainer for 100g, but to remove a dire raven from HoM is impossible yet. Flaming Relic 10:16, 19 April 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Bugs

I found 2 unusual things while I was just sitting in my HoM: When you use Summon Ruby Djinn and try to get it in front of a tapestry it shows up like it's behind it, while it isn't. Second: when you use Life and the spirit dies, the stands for the Destroyer weapons on the Valor monument are healed. --The preceding unsigned comment was added by User:62.45.0.165 (talk).

[edit] Additions?

OK, this bit is for those of us who want the devs to add soem stuff to the hall, feel free to add your own suggestions, and please, sign the petition below if youy agree and want these additions added. 1: Make all end game weps dedicatable, and if not all, at least the new prophacies end game weps. 2: Make all gold weps dedicatable, as long as they fulfill these requirements: First they are completley upgraded with all manner of added parts, and an inscription, Second, they are customized to their respective cahracter. 3: Make all Pre-order weps available. ( I mean, when you read about them, it says they're really important to the culture of their creators, and they're not even displayable, which makes me wonder if they were really important at all.) 4: Make all unique(green) items displayable, aslong as they are customized. That's really all I can think of now, so please, iff you agree sign your name, if it's a suggestion, notify that it is first before adding it. Lord Zepherr April 24, 2008 (UTC)

Personally I think making all golds eligible for dedication would be a coding nightmare - depending, that is, on what exactly the GW2 rewards are - but making all green weapons displayable doesn't seem quite so outrageous.

In the alternative, a thought: The present display allows for one of each of two different weapon types (destroyer and tormented)... which means a limited number of slots, each of which is defined by skin and weapon type. I would suggest allowing a green weapon to fill the slot of a destroyer or tormented weapon of the same general type (e.g. wand for wand, sword for sword, etc)... thus rewarding people who have garnered green weapons without necessitating new GW2 reward code.

(AUNTMOUSIE) 19:51, 2 January 2009 (UTC)

I guess there is no reward in GW2 for getting 5-10-15-20 or even 24 maxed titles in GW1. Flaming Relic 11:41, 19 April 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Suggestions on the mechanics of the HoM

I really like the idea mentioned here of GW2 having a HoM displaying the weapons you placed in it in GW1, and then any character you make in GW2 could choose to take them out in the form of a "token", which can be exchanged for a "Legacy" weapon corresponding with the type of weapon in the HoM. The Legacy weapon would be a unique GW2 skin.

This would mean that the GW2 HoM would have to be account-wide, so you can choose which character you created in GW2 is going to "inherit" a weapon. And you'd have to be able to choose any weapon you placed in the HoM. This way you could create multiple classes and select the Legacy weapon you can best use on your new character(s) out of one account-wide HoM.

There is another thing I would like to see:

Make weapons placed in the HoM dedicated and not customized.
Make the HoM's of all your characters add up in the GW2 account-wide HoM.

Why? Because now in Gw1 the HoM's are character based. We currently don't know how the Gw2 HoM will work. The way it looks now, it's not wise to spread out all your accomplishments, minipets, hero alite armor and valor weapons across your characters, because you'll end up with multiple half-filled HoM's. So to be on the safe side, people collect stuff like mini's, elite armor for heroes and themselves and destroyer weapons, and add them in the HoM of their MAIN character. This results in two problems imo:

Because valor weapons get customized, you can only use them on the selected main character and his/her heroes. This makes no sense to me, as I'd like to be able to use these elite weapons on my own characters, not my main characters' heroes. Make them either dedicated or, better yet, make sure all Gw1 HoM's are added up in the Gw2 HoM (which therefore should need to be account wide!), and problem solved.
As long as we don't know how the Gw2 HoM will work, people that like to hunt for titles and stuff to place in their HoM, will start using their secondary characters less, and their main character more. This results in less variety in classes in the game being played, which is bad imo.

So to conclude: Making the Gw2 HoM account wide AND adding up all achievements, minipets, hero armor, valor-weapons and elite armor from all your GW1 HoM's into the Gw2 HoM would ensure multiple positive things:

people would no longer feel the need to play ONE main character in Gw1, making the game more diverse again. (title hunting on multiple characters is more fun too imo, unless you want to have a high KoaBD title)
you could customize whichever weapon you like on whichever character you have on your Gw1 account to their respective HoM's, and continue using them on those characters instead of the main characters heroes. The Gw2 HoM would display them all anyway.
Having Elite armor on multiple characters would pay off. Of course, elite armor of a certain profession would only be availabe as "legacy" armor in Gw2 to a character of a corresponding class (which doesn't necesarily have to be the same profession, as Gw2 will probably have entirely different classes)
Double achievements would just be available as "legacy" titles in Gw2 as many times as you achieved them in Gw1. You could choose which characters in Gw2 inherit which titles. Same with double weapons.

Lastly I'd like to see it possible to add ALL end-game greens from ALL campaigns to the HoM. Possibly also tormented weapons. Sjeng 08:29, 25 April 2008 (UTC)

I agree with you. But I can almost give you a 100 percent guarantee that the hall of monuments will never be collectivly added togther to make one big one in GW2. That would leave the HoM open for abuse. But weapons that have been posted to the HoM should be dedicated instead of customized. Effigy 03:25, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

How would that leave the HoM open for abuse? I don't see how it could be abused really... could you explain? Sjeng 10:09, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

Thank you ever so much Anet for listening to the suggestions of the community!!! Thank you!! Sjeng 07:00, 25 June 2008 (UTC)

The rearrange button by itself seems worthless, as it only rotates monuments. We should be able to choose what to display. Also we should be able to add and remove monuments, because lots of people get other/better items later on and it can be filled before. ^^thank you for listening.. Flaming Relic 15:48, 19 April 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Another HoM statue?

→ moved from User Talk:Gaile Gray

Why isnt there a stsatye in the HoM for completing the quest "A Time For Heroes"? --Burning Freebies 20:48, 6 May 2008 (UTC)

I think the idea is that the HoM itself is the reward for completing the quest. That being said, I wouldn't mind another statue. 76.120.124.95 03:09, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

You can use HoM waaaay before "A Time For Heroes", so HoM is defenitly not the reward for that quest. --Шєвч [TALK] @ 18:19, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

Freebies -- this sounds almost like a suggestion! Did you want to add it to the GW Suggestions page? (There's a link on the upper right of this page, if you wish.) -- Gaile

03:52, 9 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Just a few thoughts on the halls??

I think our halls could be greatly beneficial with a few tweaks.

/> Add a "Hall of Monuments" button under the "Guild Hall" button on the "[G] Guild" menu screen.

/> Add a Xunlai Chest inside the HoM.

/> Add the ability to display all of our Festival Hats.

/> I'd also like to see all my Heroes standing around in there... like Vekk, Ogden, & Gwen already are.

/> More weapons to the "Valor" display. (not just tormented..which singles out NF.)

/> Statue of the Great Destroyer in honor of my victory on the "Honor" display. (Eternal Hero of The North)

/> Guild Banner flying somewhere in the hall.

/> The ability to display more PvE titles.. sometimes I think Anet focuses way too much on PvP at the expense of PvE. (imho)

Overall we aren't completely sure what Anet has in store for the HoM & GW2.... so I hope that they think ahead alot and consider all the things we poured ourselves into while playing GW1.. (guilds, titles, quests, etc...) I just say this...cause I was never really into PvP.

Hodjedi 18:40, 6 July 2008 (UTC)Hodjedi

1: under H rather than G

8: Aren't all pve title displayable in the HoM..? (agree on the pve pvp thing but HoM is one of the few things focused on pve where anet has put allot of effort in

Pulpulpullie 11:24, 7 July 2008 (UTC)

Problem with 2 would be The Eye of the North being an explorable area. --Arduinna

13:13, 7 July 2008 (UTC)

That wouldn't be a problem.. It just hasn't been done before.. Pulpulpullie 17:16, 7 July 2008 (UTC)

Dragging precious items to the storage is a very common action. It would be too easy to drag-n-drop an item on the ground by mistake and log off. When using the storage, a player should be in a controlled environment in order to avoid possible accidents. Vezz 02:05, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Passage?

Has anybody noticed that behind the Honor monument there seems to be a passage leading up into the blackness? Lord Zepherr 22:56 July 25, 2008 (UTC) Ya supposedly that is your character's crypt for GWs 2 or not just a thought that makes sense and that 3-D floating statue in front of it that shows the KoaBD title track status is possibly your character's casket.

[edit] Multiple Accounts

I've not seen any mention to how the HoM will work for those of us with multiple accounts. As it was, when I started playing GW you only had 4 char slots, and so to make all 6 professions, you needed 2 accounts. Add to this the fact I played at weird times for Europe, and I purchased a 3rd account to play in the American districts. What I'm wondering, as I'd asssume the improvements you made in GW will be back again for GW2 (extra char slots, changing servers etc) is how my HoM achievements will transfer over. Can I link multiple accounts for GW to a single GW2 account, or are my combined efforts on these 2nd and 3rd accounts with relation to the HoM for nothing. Is it going to be a PlayNC account based thing, cause my gf and mine accounts are all on the same PlayNC account, so how would that work as we both want separate GW2 accounts? Any information would be appreciated. Thx Magua 15:17, 6 September 2008 (UTC)

For as far as I know, if you get 3 gw2 accounts you can transfer all your gw1 achievement's to gw2. I don't think they will ever allow you to transfer multiple account achievements to a single account. Pulpulpullie 10:33, 7 September 2008 (UTC)

I'd say with 99,9% certainty that 1 GW1 account can transfer the HoM to 1 GW2 account, and that's it. Would be a technical nightmare to do otherwise imo.Sjeng

13:19, 22 October 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Deleted chars

I'm thinking about deleting my ranger main, to start all over on GW. My ranger has all the monuments fully modded. If I delete this char, will the achievements still be there for GW2? 89.150.88.23 16:26, 15 September 2008 (UTC)

I would wait at least until the HoM update comes live, and even then I probably wouldn't take a chance. Until a developer gives an answer to your question, this would be my advice. --

Alaris 16:52, 15 September 2008 (UTC)

My advise: NEVER delete your main character.. make a 2nd, it's only ~7 euro.. :P Pulpulpullie 20:47, 15 September 2008 (UTC)

Logically, if you delete a character, you delete his/her HoM with it. Therefore, you will lose all yuor achievements. Even when the HoM goes account-wide, this is probably the case, because the account-wide option is simply a "viewing" option: you can choose to enter each character's HoM individually like it is now, or enter the HoM that shows your entire account's character's achievements. Remove one of those characters = remove the achievements of that character = less stuff in your account-wide HoM. At least that's the way I see it, seems logical to me. Sjeng

14:06, 20 October 2008 (UTC)

i deleted my survivor b/c i got tired of the char slot being taken up, and the legendary survivor monument is still in my HoM70.187.15.100 03:46, 27 June 2009 (UTC)

This have been already answered by Regina. When you unlock something in the HoM, the unlock is PERMANENT~for the ACCOUNT. It's not a 'viewing' option. Since the game can't access a character's info wile logged as another character, they make it so when you unlock something, it becomes unlocked for account too. Of course, you'll lose the character and his HoM, but whatever he has unlocked stays unlocked for the account. My advice is to buy another slot and keep the character, thought. You'll have a ranger ready if yu want to use it later, and more birthday presents. Mith

[edit] CANT TRADE ITEMS!?!?!?!!?!?!?!?!?

This sucks i wish we could trade the weapons or minipets (that we earn with our own time). I worked hard to get that stuff and now we can't trade them. It feels like they wont have no money value and are just there for show. I dont even see the point in HOM any more if your items wont be worth anything to anyone eles. What makes items "cool" is when there worth a lot of money not something that only you can have. I rather have something worth a bunch of in-game gold then something worth nothing.--The preceding unsigned comment was added by User:Wiiman00 (talk).

The HoM is not there for you to make money with. Its there to show people in GW2 that you have achieved things in GW1. More of a bragging rights/proof of past kind of thing. Its never been amount money and if it was it would effect the economy of GW2 too much.- TheRave

(talk) 01:16, 19 October 2008 (UTC)

So your telling me that if you could choose to make the items tradeable or untradeable u would would make them untradeable. I like having wealth in mmorpg that is a big part of the fun i get from playing them. And i dont want to have to start all over in the wealth system with a new game thats the main reason i want the items to be tradeable. ANET at least give us some advantage in money in guild wars 2 for all that hard work we did filling up the HOM.wiiman00 22:48, 5 November 2008 (UTC)

Nobody is forcing you to put anything in your HoM. And if you know you're not gonna trade the item - no difference. besides - if you want to be rich in an mmo, just don't buy gold weapons with cool skins, don't buy 15k armor, don't fill your HoM - you'll always have a ton of money. I dunno about you, but I'd rather show off with a Destroyer bow and Vanguard elite armour, than telling someone I have 5000k. Mechu95 19:46, 17 November 2008 (UTC)

Woah man bad comparison. Those items have value and prestige. I would show them off too. But im just afraid that the rewards will end up like the /bonus items. They have no value and i rather not show the /bonus items off. And yes no one is forcing to put stuff in the HoM, but thats not the point. The point is the rewards need prestige, end of story!wiiman00 01:22, 18 November 2008 (UTC)

I often use the /bonus items, they're a good way to save cash. But I sincerely think that HoM-earned items will have prestige, if for no other reason than (1) not everyone will be able to get them (especially rewards linked to GWAMM, MotN, Guardian), and (2) each item is linked to some GW1 achievement. --

Alaris 01:52, 18 November 2008 (UTC)

I think the HoM rewards will be prestige anyway, because they basically say: "Hey look, I played GW1 and achieved this or that title/achievement!". They won't be tradeable or worth ingame gold, because that would put older GW1 players at an unfair advantage over new GW2 players. It's a new game, so everyone should have to start at zero. It's already pretty damn cool that GW2 will have the opportunity for GW1 veterans to show off their accomplishments. So the rewards have prestige, but no monetary value, as is only fair. Besides, if you have tons of gold in GW1, what good will that do you in GW2? It's a totally different new game, and NO game with a sequal transfers your money from part 1 to part 2 (Diablo etc). Be glad GW at least gives you the chance to convert all that money from GW1 into something to show off in GW2. Sjeng

[edit] The Monument of Valor

Since they added the tormented weapons to this monument can you actually split up so you fill this monument by adding for eg. 5 destroyer weapons and 6 tormented weapons. Or do you actually have to add 11 of both so a total of 22 now? -- Nox Coma 12:09, 19 October 2008 (UTC)

Good question. It looks like 11 of any weapons will do, as the shrine can only display 11 weapons at a time. Which brings me to the following question: Will the reward in GW2 be the same wether you have put in 11 destroyer weapons, 11 tormented weapons, or a mix of both, or will you get a unique reward in GW2 for a full set of destroyer weapons and a different reward for a full set of tormented weapons? If there's only 1 reward, regardless of what you put in your HoM, I'll stick to my destroyer set. If I get another different reward for a full set of Tormented weapons, I'll put those in as well... We'll have to wait and see I guess. Sjeng

14:13, 20 October 2008 (UTC)

Here's one question we can answer now... is it possible to put both a tormented staff and a destroyer staff in the HoM? If we cannot put both, then that answers the above questions. --

Alaris 14:28, 20 October 2008 (UTC)

No that will only answer Nox Coma's question. I haven't tried it, but I'm guessing you can add as many tormented and destroyer weapons you like, of any type, filling it beyong 11 if you want to, just like any other shrine. I don't know if you even need to have all different skins to have a "full" shrine. If someone could try adding multiple staves for example, the we'd know that you can fill it with whatever type and skin of destroyer/tormented weapon you like or if you can only add 1 of each type of weapon. But that still won't answer my questions though. My valor is filled with destroyer weapons. I think I'll add my tormented sword and shield tonigh, just to see what happens.Sjeng

08:08, 21 October 2008 (UTC)

Sounds good, let us know =) -- Nox Coma 18:27, 21 October 2008 (UTC)

Well, you can add tormented items if you have all 11 destroyer weapons on display. Haven't tried 2 weapons with the same skin, because I don't have 2 of any. Perhaps someone with 2 destroyer staves or w/e could try it out? And what if I have placed destroyer or tormented staves in the HoM's of different characters, say for example a destroyer fire staff on my ele and a destroyer death staff on my necro. How would that behave in the account-wide HoM? Would you get to see both, thus filling 2 slots, or does 1 type of skin count as 1 slot? Sjeng

19:45, 21 October 2008 (UTC)

Another question that came to mind: there's only one skin for the Destroyer Bows, but there are two for the Tormented Bows. Can you add both Tormented skins or only one? Because then technically there are 12 tormented skins, not 11... This just gets more confusing the more you think about it! Sjeng

13:17, 22 October 2008 (UTC)

Yes, you can add 11 tormented weapons and 11 destroyer weapons, but not 2 of the same (2 destroyer staves). There is only one statue for tormented bows, it displays both skins. See Valor --

Wyn 15:12, 22 October 2008 (UTC)

Why bother to do this if you wont get any good rewards in guild wars 2. Watch the rewards be like some sword that has no value or advantage but just looks different.wiiman00 20:04, 23 October 2008 (UTC)

Why do people have expensive destroyer and tormented weapons in the first pleace? They have no advantage. Its because they look different/good/cool. The HoM weapon rewards will also have the advantage it proves to GW2 players that you are a veteran player of GW1 as well. Its all for the kudos. Its like the same reason people have FoW armor, kudos.- TheRave

(talk) 20:50, 23 October 2008 (UTC)

I just hope the rewards dont end up like the bonus items(which no one cares if you have or not) and like the fevstive hats, nobody cares if you have the first wintersday hat. People look at FoW armor different because it is worth money(like over 1 mill). This gives me the reason to think that the HoM rewards will just end up like festive hats or bonus items instead of being considered cool like FoW armor.wiiman00 02:57, 24 October 2008 (UTC)

Actually, I'm hoping the rewards will be exactly like that - a reward for the player to be happy knowing he has something cool (just like some of the bonus weapon and the festival hats are rather nice), regardless of what everyone else think of it. That would make me happier than something worshipped by GW2 players who don't have GW1. Erasculio 03:08, 24 October 2008 (UTC)

Well wiiman, you should know GW is alot about prestige. You say that FoW armor is different because it cost alot of money, does it not cost you alot of money to add the destroyer/tormented weapons? Bad reasoning... As Erasculio put it it can just aswell be personal too, you can get something for your own liking and not because you wanna show all the other players how cool you are. I bought this game for me, not for anyone else and I have the same intentions on GW2.

As for GW2 rewards depending on your HoM in GW 1 you will never have to take a risk... Your achievements in GW1 will continue to transfer into GW2 after it is released so if you're unsure if you wanna buy that armor, those minipets or that weapon then just be patient and hold on to your money until you can see what the reward is and if you think it's worth it... Personally I like taking the "risk" cause it give you some excitement. Besides it's not all lost if you dont get what you want in GW2 cause what you do in GW1 should be done out of enjoyment and to have fun...

I think they will add some rather nice rewards though cause they have had alot of time to see what interests the people and what makes the gamers "tick" so to speak. -- Nox Coma 07:29, 24 October 2008 (UTC)

I have tormented weapons because I enjoy getting them. The Domain of Anguish is one of my favorite places to play in this game. They also look cool, and are purple (my favorite color) which are also pluses for me. Besides.. what else besides stuff that looks cool do you really have to spend your money on once you have unlocked all the skills? --

Wyn 07:33, 24 October 2008 (UTC)

hehe so true =) -- Nox Coma 17:58, 24 October 2008 (UTC)

So Erasculio your telling me you rather have a festive hat then FoW armor? How can festive hats or bonus items have so much prestige if millions of people can get them. I completely understand guildwars is all prestige but name a item that has prestige and no money value at the same time. Its impossible; just like in the real world stuff that is worth money has prestige. Wouldn't you think the festive hats would have more prestige if you could trade to other people, i sure would.wiiman00 23:00, 24 October 2008 (UTC)

But I'm not worried about prestige : ) If I had to choosen between a festive hat that I enjoy looking at or a FoW armor that isn't pretty to me, I would rather have the hat. Like Nox and Wynthyst exemplified above, sometimes players get an item because they like how it looks, regardless of how valuable it is to the other players or how much prestige it has among the community. Erasculio 23:03, 24 October 2008 (UTC)

I see what you are saying but i still feel like i am wasteing my time. But thats just how i feel. I've spent many hours in this game and i feel like it would be better if we could have something tradeable. I don't know why i feel this way, maybe its greed lol.wiiman00 23:13, 24 October 2008 (UTC)

Ok.. so let's say it's tradeable.... what exactly does having more pixel money get you? You are playing a game which by definition is a waste of time. All your pixelated money is good for is buying skills, armor, titles, or other cool stuff. I am an avid trader, don't get me wrong, but I do it to make pixel gold to buy cool stuff. Any 'bonus' items that are unlocked by your HoM for GW2 are most likely NOT going to be tradeable, and even if they are, by the time GW2 comes out there are going to be SOOOO many of them that there value will be very limited. You have to consider that ArenaNet is not going to design these unlocks as things that give us veteran players unsurmountable advantages over players coming into GW2 without having played GW1, that would just be shooting their future player base in the foot. --

Wyn 23:27, 24 October 2008 (UTC)

Ok so ethier way its all a waste of time so im quiting guildwars.lolwiiman00 15:04, 25 October 2008 (UTC)

Indeed, playing any game, by definition, is a waste of time.- TheRave

(talk) 15:09, 25 October 2008 (UTC)

I disagree. Doing something you enjoy is never a waste of time. -- Nox Coma 09:12, 26 October 2008 (UTC)

That is somewhat true to me but in the end playing this game is a waste of time. When you could be doing something positive you are sitting at a computer playing with pixels.wiiman00 22:43, 5 November 2008 (UTC)

Hey Wiiman, that's what gaming is all about. Games are about fun and relaxation, not about doing something usefull. (Though relaxing is quite usefull in itself.) (reset indent)

Earlier you stated this: "I just hope the rewards dont end up like the bonus items(which no one cares if you have or not) and like the festive hats, nobody cares if you have the first wintersday hat. People look at FoW armor different because it is worth money (like over 1 mill)." > If the HoM gives you /bonus rewards from achieving something in GW1, or having filled your HoM with expensive items, such as elite armor, lots of minipets, destroyer and/or Tormented weapons, then those items will say: "Look everone, I had some pretty expensive stuff in GW1, and I got this cool item from doing that!". So it's exactly the same as FoW armor. The money spent for it was only spent in a different game then the one you're currently playing. Same thing to me. That, to me, is the meaning of prestige, not the monetary value of the item itself. Prestige is when something says "getting this was pretty hard or expensive" and the HoM bonusses will do exactly that imo. And if festival hats were tradeable (uncustomized), then they would't gain prestige, as they were free to get, they'll only gain monetary value for those who missed out on them and still want to have them.

[edit] jingle bear

can you add it to your hom and geta statue like black koas have?

Doubtful, but worth a try! Unfortunately, I don't have it on any of my chars (just on a hero). --

Alaris 14:48, 7 January 2009 (UTC)

No you can't add it to HoM like the other special companions, it would have to be the generic type monument. Same for the rainbow phoenix as it's not special enough i guess. I've had both dire jingle bear and dire rainbow phoenix at lvl 20, but have to do with a dire raven instead. I've just quit the game because of it, so my advise would be to be able to delete monuments. OR give these companions a special monument like the others and make it so that people can choose what to display. Flaming Relic 10:02, 19 April 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Info

We really do need more info on how the HoM will work. Perhaps stating what sort of benefit we'll get in GW2, because otherwise, I would be reluctant to fill up mine, and I am sure that it is the same for others. |--SaberhagenFile:User Saberhagen Wiki Sig.JPG(My Talk) 14:11, 17 January 2009 (UTC)

I definalty agree with you. This is starting to piss me off we havent had any news forever. Why did they tells us about guildwars II 3-4 years before release and then not update us. I feel like we have been forgoten and I quit guildwars becasue why should i play if were just getting cosmetic benefits lol from HoM . Bottom line arenanet has screwed us all over big time. Its all BULLSHIT arenanet, thats how most of us feel.wiiman00 03:13, 28 January 2009 (UTC)

They already said we're just getting cosmetic benefits from HoM. Cosmetics, and maybe a headstart, but nothing that will affect balance long-term. They don't want to aleniate GW2 players that have not played GW1. I agree we need more info, but don't waste your time filling the HoM if you're doing it only to get more powerful in GW2, because that won't happen. --

[edit] Monument of Resilience

Hello. Is it possible to purchase prestige armor for two or more different characters, still able to show them in the same monument? Or do I have to purchase all five prestige armors for one character to get that monument done? --88.112.91.132 12:24, 10 February 2009 (UTC)

if you mean buying one armor of a char and another armor on a different char then no, monuments are per character and will only show the armors bought by that character (and placed on the monument) Fox007

OK .. I have two armor sets in the HoM. In the account-wide display, they both show up, but, interestingly, the same hairdo and color are on both. On one of these chars, I did do a makeover which is accurately reflected as to hairdo and color, but on the other one, it's way off. It seems to be displaying the current character in different armor sets. Maybe I'm being nit-picky, but shouldn't the statues displayed be an accurate representation of the character as he/she currently appears in-game? Algonda 14:12, 2 September 2009 (UTC)

That's the only thing he says. "It's a bit cold out there" or something and Gwen responds with "You came in here to give me a weather report?" or something along those lines. Nothing new there. -- Azazel The Assassin\talk 05:20, 27 April 2009 (UTC)

I can't recall that well, but Lt. Thackery did approach the HoM with another conversation asides from the "Weather report". I think he was asking why Gwen stayed in the HoM and she replied "Because It's full of memories..." Or something along those lines. Well, at the very least, I know that I've had two different conversations in the HoM between those two, both showing Lt. Thackery's concern for Gwen <3. 82.112.154.165 23:24, 17 May 2009 (UTC)

I was looking at the brief description of the Monument of Devotion on the HoM page and it says it is a place to display your miniatures and your collectibles. What collectibles is it talking about?Passifis 08:36, 11 April 2009 (UTC)

As of the moment, it's only miniatures. Maybe festival hats or something were intended to go there too. But lack of time/revision/inable to do that prevented that. -- Azazel The Assassin\talk 08:39, 11 April 2009 (UTC)

[edit] How does this work

I have a few questions about how this works. In the monument of resilience, if I put Primeval armor in the monument on my warrior, and the elite fur-lined armor on my ranger, and for example a prestige armor set on my monk, necro and elementalist, will GW2 still give me a reward for the maxed out monument ? Or do I have to buy elite fur-lined and 4 other RANGER prestige armors to get that reward ? and why is anet not giving any info!!! I want info on what's going on >:( also, if I put in 20 common minipets, is it the same as if i put 20 purple ones ? what about if i put 10 common and 10 purple ? WHAT IN THE WORLD HAPPENS, and what do I get ??

[edit] Account wide HoM

I don't see anything about this on the page. Didn't know if someone was working on adding that or not although since wikis are sort of real-time (they are, aren't they?) I guess I can give it a try.

It's 'worse' than that. Take a look at my Account-Wide HoM. These two characters are the only ones I have that have max titles.

It looks to me that 2 of the same character-based title is counting as 2 titles, which I'm not sure was intended. I say 'worse' in quotes because if I can get Rainbow Phoenix....I'm not complaining. :P Benjammn311 21:30, 26 April 2009 (UTC)

I was just on my Dervish who is I'm Very Important, he has the big statue dude uncovered cos of the title track, the other characters (who don't have full titles) don't have the statue at all. I just put in my Dervish's fourth set of armor and went to account wide - in account mode I have 5 sets of elite armor and the statue dude popped out one stage along. I switched to my Monk, who has no rank in the Maxed Title and her, and all the other characters on my account, and they all have the statue uncovered slightly.

When I went in with my Dervish, the statue was one stage away from completion when looking in account me, going back to just his hall it's two stages away. 000.00.00.00 01:12, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

Mr. Benjammn311, I think you should check if you have a full HoM. As that picture shows the first pop out stage and in account-based HoM, if it's full the statue will come out one stage. So I wouldn't be certain it's the titles unless you click on the "Honor" plaque and it says "<Character name> has reached Kind of a Big Deal in the Kind of a Big Deal title track." -- Azazel The Assassin\talk 01:51, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Okay, I found this a bit off but I may be incorrect

It says account wide now. So shouldn't I have my old stuff back? I viewed my Devotion monument, and I don't have my old Minipets back. So was this done on purpose, or was I supposed to keep my old characters? Lucky me however, they were the first year pets...Hydra, Necrid Horseman, etc..--iRathur 03:28, 27 April 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Origin Speculation time

Where did this thing come from? Who built it? Why? The Scrying Pool seems to have been keeping an eye on the destroyers. It only reacts to "you" (your character). It even calls out to you from miles away when it has something to show you. No one has any idea where it came from, the Humans and Norn just stumble upon it one merry day as they're exploring the mountains. I don't think it's original purpose was to record your heroism, that seems to be a Human touch (Gwen even hands you some tapestry to mark the monuments - the monuments weren't specified for anything previously). However, there is the weird statue floating in that weird blue liquid that seems to be a tunnel of some sort. It comes out and starts glowing as you complete achievements. Is that an original feature of the hall or a human decoration for you (mages and enchantments or something)? So what is this place's true purpose and why does it love us so much? I'm hoping it's an actual piece of lore, and not Anet just playing themselves up as "Unseen benefactors" like they did with the Anatomical Engineer. 68.193.113.198

You'd get many theories on this in this Guru thread (Can't recall if there is a GWO thread on the Eye of the North). The most sound theory would be one I agree with, that it was created by the Seers. Besides the Scrying Pool matching the meaning of their names (a seer is like a fortune teller, for the most part), the place is older than the Norn, Humans, Asuran, and Dwarves. Only races we know to be older than the current races would be Forgotten, Charr, Mursaat, and the Seers. It doesn't look like typical Mursaat Structure, nor Charr Structure. Doesn't seem to be Forgotten either (from what we see in the Desert), so the only race left, besides unknown, would be the Seer. So the answer is either Seer or Unknown. As for the place being lore or not, the building is, the achievements part, not so much. For now (in my opinion) at least. -- Azazel The Assassin\talk 22:36, 17 May 2009 (UTC)

I beg to differ, if the monument itself is showing signs of responses to the achievements then surely it must've been built in a way to allow it to do so, by whomever created it. My opinion is that the architects wanted/needed a hero to, perhaps, help them achieve some sort of higher goal and they're helping the hero/heroine to do so in the process.--Whisperer 22:25, 18 June 2009 (UTC)

[edit] accounts HoM

i havent entered accoutn wide version on any chars btu my main btu when i entered on my monk all my eltie armors my norn, ancient, luxon, marhans grotto you name it it changed to monk version, ive had the monk for 2 days so no i dont have thoose armors for my monk but why did they change to look like my monk, leads me to wonder if it changes to the charachter you enter account mode with a monk but the armors were unlocked on a ranger if in GW2 all thoose were unlocked for every profession i doubt it but anyoen else wondering about this --Lord randy taylor 22:12, 18 June 2009 (UTC)

When you view your account-wide hall, armors are displayed worn by the current character (the game can't access info about your other characters) if possible, or if not (e.g. - proph-only elite armors on a ritualist) it just displays a generic statue of that armor. ¬ Wizårdbõÿ777(talk) 22:35, 18 June 2009 (UTC)

[edit] This is kind of a big deal

Of all the achievements and titles that are displayable in the HoM, I can't believe that "A God Walking Among Mere Mortals" is not. It doesn't concern me that it doesn't count towards the maxed titles total, but in regards to benefits in GW2, shouldn't this one be the most important of all? Vidal 02:38, 20 June 2009 (UTC)

Actually, it is displayed. Automatically and each rank is. Take a big look at that statue in the blue, that is the KoaBD statue. As it is always showing, and is automatic, it can be viewed as the "most important." -- Azazel the Assassin/talk 06:43, 20 June 2009 (UTC)

I'm more concerned with what happens in GW2 and what benefits we get for having these titles maxed, and not so much with their displays or what happens in the Hall of Monuments. The statue is pretty, and that's about it.Vidal 14:54, 20 June 2009 (UTC)

...If you are more concerned with the GW2 aspect, why even bother with this topic as a "why isn't the KoaBD title track not displaying?"... >_> Meh. For rewards, we have no idea what we'll get. For all we know, GWAMM will be special emotes like proph CE edition. Everything will end up being something that doesn't affect gameplay greatly (hopefully) like the /bonus weapons and the CE stuff, miniatures, etc. Maybe an everlasting Summoning Stone for low levels. Who knows. Doesn't seem to mean much to me what benefits we get, personally. -- Azazel the Assassin/talk 18:07, 20 June 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Rainbow Phoenix

Ok i know if you fill your HoM up to the max ammount you can show stuff, in the Honor monument the stature thing goes to lvl-1 of KoAbD but if i was to get KoAbD lvl-1 on my toon would it go to lvl-2 on the statue and would a Rainbow phoenix appear? this mite be too hard to understand srry --The preceding unsigned comment was added by User:75.18.36.42 (talk).

It goes up one rank of the title. That is 0->1, 1->2, 2->3, 3->4, 4->5. Stops at five since that is the highest the changes go, if I recall correctly. It should be in the "Honor" article. Since that is the monument linked to the KoaBD title track. And yes, the Rainbow Phoenix would appear. -- Azazel the Assassin/talk 07:36, 8 July 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Valor

I know that with GW2 on the horizon it's a bit late for something this trivial but I always wondered why the "valor" monument isn't set up to display unique green weapons. Seems more flavorful to me. Trophies of various bosses ya know -- Icefalc0n 13:19, 17 October 2009 (UTC)

[edit] KOABD Info

Last time I read this, it was KOABD and at least four completed monuments. Is it the same as it is now? Than 02:41, 9 November 2009 (UTC)

What was KoaBD and at least 4 completed monuments? If you're referring to "having a completed HoM", then don't bother asking. We just don't have any details as to how HoM will connect to GW2 rewards yet. All we have is speculation based on what can be simultaneously displayed. --

Well, I don't really care for it's connection to GW2 (not yet anyways). But, in a past version of the article, it said if you completed 4 of the monuments (which is considered by certain conditions of the monument) and you have KOABD you could get the Rainbow Phoenix. Is that the same thing as it' saying now, just worded differently? I haven't spent many years in America, so I'm guessing it's the same thing. Than 01:24, 10 November 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Just an idea - Minipets to Companions?

Guild wars 1 minipets = Guild wars 2 companions?

What if your dedicated minipets, displayed in the monument of devotion, were transferred to guild wars 2 as part of an individual companion system?

What we know of the companion system:

'The system of companions and allies is being reworked. Companions will have customization similar to Heroes. Players will be allowed to bring a single companion with them, who will not take up a party slot and are considered an extension of the character. When a player chooses not to bring a companion, their character will instead be buffed so that they will not be disadvantaged by not bringing a companion'

This would not provide a huge advantage, as players who have never played Guild wars 1, or dedicated their minipets would still be able to use (if they wished) the normal companion system integrated into the game. Players in GW2 who did previously dedicate their minipets would be able to show of their companions as they progressed through the game.

Sounds like a good idea...for someone who has a lot of surplus minipets that they can't sell. — Tennessee Ernie Ford (TEF) 03:43, 15 November 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Shown or All?

Sorry if this has been said in an archive or something, feeling lazy tonight. I was wondering if there has been any knowledge of whether only the stuff shown, or if all of your stuff in the HoM will affect GW2. I hate rearranging stuff trying to only have the best stuff out, and I'd love to stop caring and just pile it up. ~Farlo Talk 05:23, 15 November 2009 (UTC)

I don't think there's been official confirmation, but I see no reason why it would only be the displayed items that would affect GW2. -- FreedomBound
