Guild wiki says the monuments give 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. The word attire is highlighted and is linked to armor. They could be doing what newer online RPGs are doing now and putting the defensive stat on the character instead of the armor.

Oh yeahs, where did you get that mix-match info? It's been like a dry spell for info, unless your an insider. More info on Eye of the North Anet.

think about this.......what if unlocking armor did NOTHING.......HUH!!! what that couldnt be they said it unlocks something........o thats right it unlocks that fact that you can show it off in hall.....
come on peeps think outside of physical rewards. Maybe the rewards might just be braggring rights to show off that you have bought a certain set of armor or have unlocked a certain weapon.
The titles are where I believe the real rewards will come from.
But like was previously stated, it is all just speculation. Just throwin the thought out there that not every "reward" is physical.

No matter how it turns out, I like the idea and whether or not there will be tangible benefits in GW2 doesnt really matter a lot for me.

I just hope its retro-active and not just your current armor

The way it really works is this:
They add up all the money you've spent on armor and dyes. Then, depending on the amount, you get a statue in your hall of monuments with a specific pose - anything from just shaking its head in wonder to rolling on the floor laughing.

(just/kidding, in case anyone is reaching for the flamethrower)
