That to , just my opinion here - I personally like Regina's approach to the gig.

What I lol'd at was she is delivering news that Gaile had said wasn't being looked into (at that time). This and the upcoming PvP - PvE skill change, etc

Be fun to see how Regina deals with the less "polite" ppl when she does visit.

We are allowed to put elite armors from any game into the hall. It's only reasonable to allow us to put end game weapons from any chapter into the hall.

Jongo River · May 16, 2008, 05:19 AM // 05:19

This sounds very promising. I just hope any update comes with an option to remove the destroyer stuff I've already put in there.

She is blunt, to the point, doesn't take crap, is very intelligent, has a great sense of humor, doesn't baby people, tells it how it is, is cute while being classy, and she is lovely on many levels. Personally, I adore her, and I think she will do a great job as CRM. I would like to get to know her a bit better, pity I never met her before she became so official...

Now I feel as though she may feel I just want to know her because she is CRM, which is far from the case. I see her as the female version of me, or a clone of my bride to be! LOL!?

I haven't much cared for the destroyer skinned weapons (actually on a few occasions I've said that I've hated them) so I'm really glad that they'll be giving people alternatives. Actually, since taste is subjective, I hope they just let people put whatever they want in there.

Also, why 11 weapons? Granted, originally one for each class of weapon that had a destroyer skin, but I mean, who actually uses 11 seperate weapons? My ranger has 5 or 6 bows for different reasons, my warrior's got a bunch of swords, an axe or two, and a bow for pulling, etc, but no one's got 11 frakin' weapons that'd I'd bother putting up in the HoM...

I vote for "put anything you dang well want on the monument" but that there be point values assigned for whatever nebulous future Guild Wars 2 reward is granted.

e.g.

Destroyer Weapon 100 points
Rare Skin Gold 10 points
Green Weapons 5 points
Routine Golds 1 point

...and this gives everyone the enjoyment of displaying and customizing their hall, and still gives the hardcore folks their just rewards for their investment.

Longasc · May 16, 2008, 06:26 AM // 06:26

Maybe you can add a tormented weapon instead of a destroyer weapon, and it will still count as a weapon for that weapon socket in GW2.

This is going to end in tears anyways.

A quicker reaction would have been desirable, people already spend money on completing this monument, despite some of the destroyer weapons being really butt ugly.

I do not think that I will be able to display my favorite longsword.

Or maybe they add a few "personalized" weapon slots to the 11 money sink destroyer weapons.

Horus · May 16, 2008, 06:29 AM // 06:29

don't think tis way needed at all, but ok...

Yikes somebody call the cops I think we may have a stalker

kazjun · May 16, 2008, 06:42 AM // 06:42

I'd like some new skins myself, maybe placed in some elite areas. EoTN has destroyers weps in slavers, NF has tormented in DOA. So maybe place crafters in urgoz and the deep for factions and a crafter in tombs or SF for tyria? Or go the eternal and chaos weps and put crafters in UW and FoW.

Thierry2 · May 16, 2008, 06:46 AM // 06:46

I don't really mind, tbh.
I've added all destroyer weapons ages ago, so my monument is full anyway.
I hope it won't be end game greens though. It cost people like me a few 100k to max the monument.. if you can add the greens it will be much cheaper.

Luminarus · May 16, 2008, 07:01 AM // 07:01

I hope they dont make this necessary in order to fill the Hall of Monuments, but for what I reckon it will be, Zodiacs, Deldrimor, Eternal/Chaos.

zwei2stein · May 16, 2008, 07:16 AM // 07:16

Could it be? Anet going to do something right?

I still predict some serious QQ mostly because people want to display their *favourite* weapons.

Now, lets see what option do we have:

* They add more of craftable High End weapons (Tormented, Deldrimor) -> Good, increases choice (If you happen to like those new skins, they ARE better than destroyer anyway.). Does not help with high costs or with putting ones favorite weapons there.

* They add greens. Endgame and normal drops. WoW. that would actually help a lot. It would be gigantic sink for overabundant green items and would help to raise their value a lot. Still does not help people with their favourite weapons.

I don't see how they would add something else: BMP would be cool but PR nightmare (so we have to buy bmp to get monuments? qqqqqq). They likely wouldnt want to bother with stuff that people actually use.

---

It it was me i would simply do this: max damage/energy; req 9 or lower and gold/green/purple is good enough for HOM. GOGOGO low end market revival.

(yes, purple is good enough. People, you put white minis on other monuments and no-one complains, ffs)

I could live with this option. For me, my r8 15^50 Shadow Bow I got from early gameplay has much more sentimental value compared to those 11 Destroyer Weapons I simply bought.

Before release, I was hoping the HoM to be like some kind of museum, where you could display anything you wanted. Not just another quest in disguise: Bring me 11 Destroyer Weapons and your Hall will advance one step... I could live with that though, because I was under the impression only these weapons would be beneficial to the ongoing war against the Destroyers, still going on in GW2. Allowing other weapons seems a bit wrong to me now. If anything more will be able to added, I really want to be able to add anything.

So, since Anet is possible allowing to add more weapons in the HoM, who wants to start a QQ thread about allowing non-elite armor too?

Phoenix Tears · May 16, 2008, 08:01 AM // 08:01

no, anet should not reward dupers and super richs anymore... when they give us the opportunity to add more Weapons of certai nsets to the monument, then it should be imo Celestial and Zodiac Items.

Anet should add then also like for Destroyer Weapons for these Weapons NPC Sellers, where you can craft them ten for some money and materials, maybe some really not very often used materials, so that they become some value finally over 100g

Otherwise i say, its better to implement some complete new weapon set or they should enable us to put all the CONTEST WEAPONS on the monument, when they have r9 and maxed mods on them, would be the most easiest solution that would not require to implement something new.
Or better said, finally complete free choice, let us just put any items there, which we want with the only requirement, that requirement must be r9 or lower and that all stats must be maxed. (so we would be then also able just to put some green items there)

I'd really love it to put onto my Monument items like the Emerald Blade, Obsidian Blade, Draconic Aegis, Voltaic Spear, Storm Bow, Zodiac Staff, Exalted Aegis, Serpent Reaver, Frog Scepter, Celestial Compass and Draconic Scythe.

Monument should stay it 11 items for maxing the monument, but players should be able to put more items onto the monument and then change like with the minipet/title monument ect. which 11 items shoudl be shown.

And improve with this step hopefully then too the HoM by makign it possible for us players to sort our monuments exactly like we want by just choosing out of our list, which stuff should be at which place.

you click the minipet monument ,you want to change somethign on it and then the game will ask you, which 20 pets should be shown. list poss up of all your pets on the monument, you mark then 20 pets by clicking on their names, click ok and your 20 chosen pets will be shown, after that you cann arrange the 20 pets the old way by changign their position as long sa you want.

same with titles then, windo pops up, you click the 5 titles which should be shown, then <you select the places for the titles where they should be by selectign numbers from 1 to 5 to them and et voila you wil see ur 5 chosen titles at your chosen places out of your x titles that you have

and again, exactly the same then again for all other monuments including weapon monument. should be really not too much wished, nor too hard to improve the HoM with this, making it for us players possible to direct choose everythign, that should be shown, because it t works atm, its crap, because you never have the full control over it, which of your thigns should be shown.

**cosyfiep** · May 16, 2008, 08:04 AM // 08:04

well now I feel sorry for those people who got all the horrible destroyer weapons (I have one, and was thinking about getting a second----I will hold off for now).

Dont think they can really include end game ones since you can only really get ONE of them per character---from factions and nightfall, though the new deldrimor ones you can craft----

will have to wait and see what they do---though obviously its a bit late in the game as MANY people have already gotten the HoM maxed out with those others-----

BenjZee · May 16, 2008, 08:15 AM // 08:15

I think they should go full out on this if they plan on changing it.
This means:
Maybe sorrows furnace/tombs greens
Deldrimer weapons

Divine path weapons
Urgoz/Deep weapons

Forgotten weapons
Tormented weapons

Droknars weapons
Destroyer weapons

--BMP weapons and Design a weapon winners

Yeah i was one of those people who went out and bought/crafted every destroyer weapon for his HoM on my paragon. So wish i hadn't now...

Still i think the only weapons that should be added are Destroyers, BMP, Tormented, Platinum, Zodiac, Celestial, Deldrimore and possibly Slaver's Exile and other elite area greens. Otherwise i don't think they should allow basic req9 golds which are so easily aquired.

And before people start qqing about "but the super rich can afford all those items! its not fair for us poorer players" think about how long we took to obtain all the gold/ectos to afford those items. You don't just aquire 100k+80 ectos for a Tormented Recurve bow overnight, takes a lot of grind and a lot of playtime for such rewards. Not to mention the mods for all those weapons can be costly too.

Sleeper Service · May 16, 2008, 08:23 AM // 08:23

greens. only.
