No, because then you'd have people bitching about how they filled their HOM with these expensive things and some schmoe can just put in any old gold or lesser weapon they choose and get their reward in GW2 just the same.

There are 12 Tormented Weapon skins: Longbow/Flatbow/Hornbow and Recurve Bow/Shortbow have different skins.

Will we get 12 pedestals now?

EDIT: My bad confused Torm's with Destroyers

The destroyer bows share one model. The Tormented Bows have two different models for longbow/flatbow/hornbow and recurve/shortbow.

I do not think they will add one more pedestal for this. Why?

They could add 12 more racks for the Tormented Weapons, they are different to the Destroyer Weapons, after all.

But I guess people would not like it.

Tormented weapons are ridiculously ugly!
I dont want to see them at GW2

Shmanka · Jun 07, 2008, 01:22 PM // 13:22

I would personally like to be able to see Gold Items placed in there in general. For example I have Stygian Reavers, Legendary Swords etc on my warrior. I don't mind the fact Tormented Weapons and Destroyer weapons are put there, but I'm really wondering why they are limiting weapon skins. Will these weapons be max damage in Gw2?

A lot of people complain about that, but you also have to consider that tormented and destroyer weps are "craftable," which makes me wonder why deldrimor didn't make the cut. But as for regular old weps, the reason they won't be in HoM is because not all stygian reavers are req. 9 and not all legendary swords are req. 9 as well. This is unlike the craftable weps, which are all req. 9 and not rare, just expensive.

If anything it would get alot of the trash tormented weps OUT of the economy.

Look in the high end market, there are a number of people who traded rare items/mini pets for stacks of armbraces each from dupers. They got their account banned in the first string of bans, but they were unbanned with the claim that because the item were so rare, it was worth the price. Now a year ago, was a mini panda worth 1750 armbraces honestly? And that was when armbraces were 60e each.
The duped items survived, not the dupers. now armbraces are worth something again for a benefit in gw2, do you think the price will not go up?

I'm pleased they're doing this but I do have a gripe.

Suppose your main character is a Ritualist, you then feel compelled to buy the Sword/Axe/Scythe/Shield, and so on, which people probably don't want and there's a storage limitation.

I bought Tormented Items and Destroyer stuff for characters which I believe suit them and look decent.

I don't want all of these Tormented/Destroyer weapons on my main and I have already pimped my heroes. Should I buy, customize then trash the items?

It seems kinda wasteful and expensive for an unknown 'reward' in GWII. Talk about being left in the dark.

Lomi79 · Jun 07, 2008, 01:58 PM // 13:58

I dont know why you even want to put them in HoM...we dont even know how will be with those items in gw2. Just put them in storage and when we will have more informations just put them in HoM if you will see that is worth.

MagmaRed · Jun 07, 2008, 04:51 PM // 16:51

Customization is not a problem. If it is a staff on a Warrior, you will probably never use it. However, you should have at least 1 hero who can make use of it.

Although I am not a fan of the Destroyer Weapons, they were nice as the ONLY option because not all people who own GW:EN own all the other games. Since Destroyer Weapons only require you to own GW:EN, it was fair that everyone who had access to the HoM had a weapon to add. Now that Tormented Weapons will be added, the people who don't own Nightfall will be left out. Worse, it leaves the people who own Prophecies and Factions out of the ability to add a skin they may like.

Deldrimor isn't what I would expect, as Tormented Weapons are not the same as the end game greens/craftibles. There currently is no comparison to Tormented Weapons in Prophecies and Factions. Unless they were to add some kind of elite area crafter (Deep/Urgoz and Tombs maybe) with a unique weapon, this is bad for the game.

if you don't have NF, just buy one from spamadan. i do prefer the deldrimor weapons myself tho.

lol read what you just posted

Valid point if you do mean buying them from anywhere else

Konig Des Todes · Jun 07, 2008, 09:30 PM // 21:30

Hopefully, ANet will allow all End-game/Elite area Greens (only greens that I think should exist) and Golds, of course, the golds would have to be exclusive to the Elite areas, so Voltaic Spear, would not make it in.

Still waiting on that Deldrimor Golds update for HoM...

Quite the dilemma I have...

Well what I think about this is the following scenario in GW2:

Some random angry forum user: "QQ A.Net! So I filled my hall with 11 tormented weapons and spent a bazillion gold for them and this noob over there, which has only 11 destroyer weapons, gets the same reward as me? I demand that my weapons are as twice as large!"

[/conspiration theory]

Anyway this is a nice change, although a bit too late. Doesn't bother me much as they are unaffordable for me and I already have 11 destroyer weapons in my hall.

Crom The Pale · Jun 08, 2008, 12:16 AM // 00:16

And when Anet finnaly anouces that all our weapons in the HoM will grant us is a title - collector or antiques....will people be happy they added the torment weapons only or will they uninstall/burn disks??

The HoM has been FAIL on so many levels that I have just about given up any hope of getting anything of substance for it in GW2.

darkangel921 · Jun 08, 2008, 01:50 AM // 01:50

I'd just like to post a friendly thought to all of you who say "I cant afford tormented weapons" Anyone, I mean ANYONE with Lutgardis Conservatory and 3 retarded heros can earn enough cash to get a tormented weapon in a matter of days. I'm very relieved that Anet is allowing this in the HOM.

afya · Jun 08, 2008, 03:39 AM // 03:39

Good to see this, but I still don't like the customization.

If torm. weapons can be added, some other expensive gold should be able to add too~And if some gold can be added, other gold............this will go never ended.

I think the best of the weapon HOM part is neither torm nor destroyers; I think GREEN weapons should add to that. There are green weapons in 3+1 chapters!!

I agree. You can get, on average, 6k an hour. Now I gotta figured out if I want toget cahs for Tormented Weapons or max out my Max Title Track to 6... Decisions, decisions...
