lets forget the fact that i worked only on one char and have no other titles on other chars :/

Excellent.
Glad they quashed those "the HoM will close when GW2 releases" rumors.

I'm still not sure how this will work with some titles... but sounds good.

I only hope they also listened to us about how they monuments are actually displayed and allow us to actually organize the statues how we want them to more easily.

Best update in a while.

Kerwyn Nasilan · Jun 25, 2008, 04:55 AM // 04:55

FINALLY ANET wooo GG

Another plus side to this... Were slowly getting info on how GW2 might work

( yeah prob been mentioned already, but im half asleep so leave me alone

)

I like it, even though i'm nearly done filling a second mini pet monument.

some questions i still have:
-when does a monument count as "complete" / what is needed to achieve an unlock for gw2? (e.g. will 5titles on display be enough or will certain titles have different benefits?)
-what will happen with professions that don't have armor equivalents that are currently displayed? (naked dervishes/paragons when 15k prophecies/factions armor is on display?)
-what will happen to players, who have the same armor type on multiple characters? (will there be 5statues of the same armor or only one?)

some wishes:
-please redo the sort options for the monuments
-consider the change of some character based titles to account wide (Wisdom/Treasure Hunter/Drunkard/Sweet Tooth/Party Animal come to mind)
- if you play a lot of different characters, the reputation titles are still a pain to get to usable levels. maybe you could add some kind of "sidekick boost" system that kicks in once a statue for a maxed reputation title is displayed in the HoM
-add a monument for completing the Titan Quests

Just wanted to share that I found this update to be downright keen.

I look forward to seeing my male Paragon in that Vabbian armor I just got for my female dervish

Just inferring a couple of points-
What you see isn't [only] what you get: There is no difference between what is displayed in a monument or if it is shuffled in the background as far as the 'reward' in GW2.
Should be interesting to see how 'duplicate' monument entries are resolved. A couple ways this could go.
The tormented weapons add a nice option, but since they are more expensive than Destroyer weapons, I'll just plan on the latter for now.

Going to add to your wish list:
-Add Deldrimor Weapons to HoM
-Add Armor for the expansion professions in Prophecies and Dervish/Paragon armor to Factions
-Add a statue for beating EN, Tombs, and Slavers' (at least Tombs, don't know if EN and slavers' deserve those statues

)

Even without these suggestions, this is still a very good improvement.

Queenie · Jun 25, 2008, 06:19 AM // 06:19

About time they actually did something good.

zwei2stein · Jun 25, 2008, 06:39 AM // 06:39

Very cool. nice change.

Sjeng · Jun 25, 2008, 06:41 AM // 06:41

Awesome. simply awesome. Thank you Anet for listening to us. Thank you thank you thank you. Best update since the storage increase.

I can now finally do stuff with my dusty old other characters besides my main warrior again.
I can get elite armor for all my characters, and not feel like I've wasted money.
I can get destroyer weapons for my own characters instead of my main character's heroes.
I can try to go for LDoA and Survivor now

I'm so gonna check out how my 5 elite warrior armors will look on my other 9 characters

(I'm guessing elite platemail and elite charr will show the corresponding Granite Citadel and Marhan's Grotto armor for the other professions. simply cool)

Now just make treasure hunter and wisdom account-wide and the HoM is 200% perfect!

Thanks again. I love you!

Nice update, can't wait to see what we get in GW2.

Jongo River · Jun 25, 2008, 07:19 AM // 07:19

I totally agree.
Since this news clearly states that the unlocks will be account-wide, what about moving these stupid individual titles to account titles?
I'm fed up having to switch between characters only to open chests/id golds etc.

Agreed in here.

Puddingbroodje · Jun 25, 2008, 07:25 AM // 07:25

/signed for a statue for beating Eotn.

How is the mini pet monument going to work?

Good job anet!

Blackest Rose · Jun 25, 2008, 07:26 AM // 07:26

Damn it - I was finally free of my GW addiction and they do a great update like this.....

Might be enough to get me playing again.

i might be able to agree with displaying the title account wide, but the progress has to stay character based

changing there rating might be ok if you add them, tho i don't agree on this one:
imagine a newly created character in istan using necrosis with r10 SS
PPL are already QQ'ing about Ursan and SF, i don't want to see the main page list filled with topics about [[Necrosis]

I do like this idea:

If you want protector & guardian, just play the game
about skillhunter, did you read the whole text?
