Was talking about bling wise, not advantage wise. Like getting a cooler, or rarer mini pet or something like that.

Not like GWAMM is a difficult or skillful thing to achieve.. its just grind, monotony, spending money and wasting time droning on and on

....

people should be rewarded for grinding in a game were skill > grind?

Just seems a little ironic to me is all..

*some of us dont do titles on principle cos we still adhere to the old school ways of gw :P

I don't have even R1 KoaBD title after playing for 5 years. I only got 2 titles maxed. I agree, I personally think GWAMM shouldn't be given a special reward, I say even R1 should give the same reward as GWAMM. But, of course people will cry that they wasted time getting titles...

On principle i have ZERO max titles :P since beta..

A little title for gw2 with a nod to their 'ancestor' been a "gwamm" should be enough really eh? :P giving them shiny's and flashy junk for their ancestors been a little ocd from running around the edge of every street and field they ever went into just doesn't seem right :P

First reply is correct; rewards for HoM are unknown.

Rather than use my time to get GWAMM, I'm quite comfortable allowing others to do so. Since the only reward is pixels and shinies, I can easily view pixels and shinies on others instead of devoting the time to obtain them on my own. That, and the activities required do not interest me. YMMV

It has been confirmed several times that CE and pre-order keys for GW1 games will have absolutely nothing at all to do with GW2. No divine aura, no shiny dance, no special weapons. There will be GW2 recognition of these things.

I like your proposal. The title gives nothing more in GW2 than it did in GW1. No special weapons, no armour skins. The title is just that - a title and GW2 shouldn't treat them any differently.

It's all e-peen! I'm pretty sure for Prestige armor and weapons you'll get a skin in GW2, kinda like the current 'costume' system.

I'm currently grinding myself to get GWAMM so it reveals the full statue in the HoM, which I'm sure will give something to show off in GW2.

I don't think it will be anything that can be sold in-game.

more like standing around in spamadan shouting "wtb party/alcohol/whatever pts, 100g each, open trade window" <insert spam clicking on items they just bought>.

I KNOW! We can let GWAMM have a pet can o spam in gw2 that follows them bouncing around shouting WTB WTB WTB!

Make that a Shadow Form Assassin + Budger pet.

Yep, ANet has said no HoM items will be tradable.

Mister_Smiley · Jul 20, 2010, 07:08 PM // 19:08

They also said that people who walk out of the HOM will look Badass...Of course that was a few years ago and they could have changed it. Most likely people who have put time into the HOM will get something different then those who randomly put crap into it. But since we know that they will be customized to the account and give no advantage to those players, it going to most likely be things that are cosmetic, such as achievement, armor, mini pets, you know something that is total useless basically but looks good. It could be a lot of things really....Also check out http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Hom#cite_note-2 and it does list some sources too, but they are old and could have changed.

Anyone thinking that filling your minipet monument with uber-rare minis is going to get you a better reward than someone who fills it with whites is probably going to be sorely disappointed, I'll just say that...

Ya, all my minis are just whites lol. I think the only color I have is a gold celestial tiger.

That is a full HoM. Just have those slots full and you have a full HoM.

Your guess is not a fact.

HawkofStorms · Jul 20, 2010, 10:06 PM // 22:06

You don't "need" to max HoM.

I haven't. Don't plan on it. Doubt whatever I'll miss out on in GW2 will be important enough for me to care.

Horace Slughorn · Jul 20, 2010, 10:53 PM // 22:53

Ya im not sure exactly what a "full" HoM means. For example the miniature monument... would the benefits it confer be limited to the 20 minis you have on display at the time you create your Gw2 character, or are further advantages possible if you have every mini ever released?

Either way, I don't really care. I'm not forward-looking to GW2. I was quite happy with the introduction of the HoM as a record of my accomplishments in GW1, regardless of the effects it may have on a game that may never be released or that I may not buy

I think it's fine you aren't buying the game, but it's going to be released. Because I doubt you've actually read what GW2 has to offer, but your loss.

ValaOfTheFens · Jul 21, 2010, 01:03 AM // 01:03

I know it would anger some people but I think something similar to WoW's Heirloom items is what HoM rewards will be. GWAMM used to seem hard to do but most titles only require that you play the game so heirloomesqe items wouldn't be out of place.

Paradise Lost · Jul 31, 2010, 08:36 AM // 08:36

Whether you have GWAMM or just a full HoM. The most realistic thing you can expect is some pre-order type weapon(s) which is customized to your account as a reward in GW2.

Thats what i think anyway, best to not wind yourself up too much hey?
