^^^That Idea i Like^^^
Except for the BMP part, this is what I've been saying for who knows how long anymore. Although I'll settle for Deldrimor weapons in the HoM instead of adding Titan weapons (and you forgot about the true Core weapon set, Eternal Weapons!)

Oh, and /notsigned again, Greens are far from "great," especially end-game ones that basically cost 5k-10k from other players.

Anet should at least put in a place where our characters can display their favorite weapons, no matter what they are. I am not about to spend a fortune just to display weapons with skins that I do not care for anyway.

Same here.

And for those that say that Destroyer and Titan weapons would look the same, rmemeber that there are Ice, Fire, Plant and Flesh titans. Not just fire ones.

Agreed. The Hall of Monuments is supposed to be for the individual player. Whether your favorites be expensive or cheap, I think the player should choose which items are to be put on display.

And don't forget, in order to go with the places that the Titans do not appear, ANet would add Sand(Crystal Desert + Elona *cept Istani*), Jade(Jade Sea), and really who knows what would be done with Kaineng (Building Titans? Lol).

And if ANet got creative *Hey, it is possible*, they could make the skins different for each region *so stone weapons for Enchovald, Sulfer for Desolation, etc*.

Would love to see.

BTW, I think we're allowed to add Destroyer and soon Tormented weapons because those are craftable/exchangeable sets, with fixed basic stats. It's not a matter of luck to get them, since those weapons don't drop anywhere, so anyone has the very same chance of getting one as long as they can afford it.

So, I'd /sign to allow crafted Deldrimor weapons to be added as well, since they respond to this very same criteria. They're not that cheap either, because of the Deldrimor Steel required.

As I said before, I don't think the gallery is meant to be just an armory or a trophy room. Sure, I'd like to add any weapon I like as well just for show, but that's supposedly not really the point of the HoM.

To mine opinion, they should take the weapon statue out of HoM.

There are a lot of nice weapons that would look nice in HoM.
But it is a stetue with the lowest value of them all, they could better ad a
statue of the Prophecies Titan quests... Those are verry nice quests
wich deserver a statue of there one after finishing,

No, It wasn't. The HoM was designed primarily to transfer achievements to gw2 in the form of rewards. Getting an easy to aquire weapon is not an achievement.

It isn't even a question of cost apart from the measly 10k for destroyers. All the items can be collected for free by simply playing through the end game content. The 10k will be made from selling the junk you get along the way.

This is basically asking for a future reward without putting in the effort. Whats next? asking for a way to easily get champ title in PvE because you don't care for PvP?

You probably misunderstood my message. Check it down again please. You'll find out I'm basically saying the same thing as you.

BTW, I'm afraid Destroyer Weapons don't come for just 10k. They cost 5k and also require 10 onyx gemstones, 10 diamonds, 250 granite slabs and 100 iron ingots. That's around 50k each, way over what you'll get with a run through the normal game content.

No, it to add 'prestige' stuff.

Greens are not 'prestigious', they are more like 'bonus'.
For Bonus items, you can get the in one shot, while you have to play for much some time in over level 20 areas to get prestige stuff.
You could say that you have to play through most of the game to get End-game greens, but you all now that the trophies to get them can be bought quite cheap nowadays.

Elite armor sets and Elite weapons sets are prestigious.
There are many Elite armor sets, but only 2 Elite weapon sets.

The solution is adding more prestige weapon sets.

And getting a cheap minipet is (and white minipets are just as acceptable to Devotion as the rarest greens and golds!)? How about capping a Black Moa or Imperial Phoenix? Honor can be almost filled just by completing campaigns. Hell, hero armor's not that hard to get either...

with weapons that cost 50k+, and a monument that requires 13 of them to complete, it is a bit ridiculous fill out compared to the other monuments. i don't know that allowing end game greens is necessarily the answer, but adding craftable weapon sets from other campaigns is definitely a great idea.

750k to fill out a single monument while other monuments can be completed just by playing the normal game content is fairly whack.

agreed. and it actually says "Your deeds from the original Guild Wars campaigns will be commemorated in the Eye of the North expansion in your Hall of Monuments. The Hall of Monuments will reflect the achievements you earn in Eye of the North as well as those earned in Prophecies, Factions, and Nightfall. You will even be able to show off your hall to friends. Then, when Guild Wars 2 arrives, each of these monuments will correspond to special features your Guild Wars 2 characters can "inherit" from your own legendary past, giving you 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. "

so just having tormented and destroyer weps only applys to 2 games where are my profh and factions sets???!

also getting a tormented wep ele fire staff for my rit isn't practical or a good use of my money, seeing as i couldn't use it it would have to go to a hero, which is craziness seeing as i could get the same staff for a hell of a lot cheaper.

There should be far more choice for which weapons we can add other then just two different types of craftable skins.

What if there were only two seperate sets of armor for every class in the game that could be added to HoM and you didnt like either one? Would you waste your money on that specific armor set, or spend it on another that you personally prefer instead?

I choose weapons and armors that I like the look of, I dont want to look the same as everyone else in their Ninja masks with tormented shields and destroyer gauntlets.

No.

These are easy to acquire, and through running you'd have a full monument faster than you would already.

Don't get me wrong, I would love to have my own weapons in there, but green ones are just... wut?

I will, however /Sign it if it was for Proph endgame weapons, aswell as giving Factions some of these types of skills too.

Edit: I already posted. Heha!!
