I like the idea of mini pets that my characters have received as 1st & 2nd Birthday gifts will be customized to that respective character.

I said this before but if you are dissapointed by the HoM do not worry too much... it is mainly a connection between guild wars and guild wars 2... and it is very rare that a game would let you connect between the two so you could pretty much just act as though there is no connection.

Also, having maxed titles like that seems like a lot... but keep in mind you still have over a year to work on your hall.

Yeah it sucks big time. I'm pretty annoyed at another blunder.

I was looking forward to displaying my necro's 15k luxon armor next to my rangers 15 kurzick

And on that note, MY ARMOR, not armor of the same "range"

Right now : Anet FTL.

I hope they change this, really.

I 100% agree once a Mini is in the HoM it should be locked into your ACCOUNT; and not tradable anymore.
BUT they should NOT take up storage space anymore either,
and Any character on that account should be able to have access to them in some way from there.

That is what we were all hoping for with that function in HoM. I can't say that what we were promised cause anet was always very fugue on that aspect of it... BUT lets just say it was Implied that it was how we would be able to use it. And what all the hype was about over it...
I totally agree. However, the only things on an ACCOUNT lock right now are certain titles, skill unlocks and bonus items. Customization has always been by character and this may be a limitation that can't get around - Much as I don't like it either. I agree on locking them to the account, but character. Not so much.

Again, not including PVE titles is VERY disappointing to me! I was hoping it would be more PVE not PVP title based. After all some of the PVP titles already get special emotes.

The miniature thing i agree needs some extra loving to bind to account, maybe flag as untradable after they're in the monument.

The Title Monument felt incomplete as it started with just the PvP titles. However the interviews and review indicated other accomplishments going in like completing a campaign. So perhaps additional titles need to be unlocked with the tapestry? Has anyone tried taking their Tapestry Shred from Pre-Sear to the HoM yet?
No I discarded that during the original storage woes. Now.... New presearing character will bring one forward for my highest character .

Does Anet have to screw up everything they do? I prefer the original armor on my heroes, thus I have not bothered to get the crappy upgrades.

I forsee changes to the Hall of Monuments in particular.
That's what Anet should have been doing these past months.

QFT.
I think the most obvious example of this is the Resilience Monument. If I go into the Hall of Monuments with my Warrior, I want to see MY armor because it's a hall of MY Monuments. Ranger and Elementalist armor? What the hell... I got the Armor monument for a reason, I wanted to see my Warriors 15k armor displayed, not this trash.

Simple solution: Birthday Mini NPC similar to the Festive masks NPC in the HoM town area.

Reason. The generated minis would NOT be able to be put back into another characters HoM. But allow them to still use what they have been able to use all along.

I do understand only 1 character getting the rewards in GW2, I 100% understand that. but that is no reason to slap a player in the face for putting them all in one main account. Is it? Those minis should still be able to be used as normal on the account, they just can not be sold or traded any longer... Nor added to another characters HoM... Lets face it Even when GW2 goes live I highly doubt many people will want a fully equipped HoM for every character they have... I will prob only make 1 character to begin with and that character will have the works... Character 2 will be somewhat less in prestige. Thats the way it is now thats the way it will be then.

Please make our Mini pets usable across your account as it always has been in the past. If the HoM can not be used for storage, then at least give us that ability since we are forced to carry them around still. I have all mine in storage and I just click to display them from there when in towns... Now I still have them all in the same place but only 1 character can display them anymore. ;( Frustrating... It would have been 1 thing if these minis were like this from the beginning and only usable on THAT character that got it, but they were not. We can not just erase that from or memory. Right now at this point no one knows or cares what it gives you in GW2... If that means we only get the benefits on 1 character there. great. So let it be written, So let it be done. But what we are talking about right NOW is not something a year or more away in GW2, but something that will effect us right now, and in 2 weeks... The way things are in the HoM atm, I don't think most players will be interested in it at all... I know Anet staff is trying to think ahead. Way ahead... BUT... GW matters to us too?

We are very much like a dog being thrown a bone... If its a dried up old fossil, we will be happy with it for a sec or two, but upon realizing it has no flavor, it will be quickly discarded.

Question:

I got a tapestry up for armor. How do you get it to display your armors? I have a couple sets of elites in my inventory but nothing. Sorry if I missed it in an earlier post.

I think you need them in your inventory when in the HoM.

So here is my first one.

I used it on the Miniature monument to see it first, and was slightly disappointed in that the miniatures are customized to the character NOT the account. I knew they would be customized, but I really was under the impression it would be a place to STORE my miniatures and then have access to them on my account from there. Now they are only good on 1 character and 1 character alone and I STILL have to tote them around in storage someplace...
NOTE

by character not account has been mentioned long before you went there

it has been officially posted not once but many times that nothing is stored in there.

NOT ARMOR

NOT WEAPONS

NOT MINIPETS


it was stated flatly that those hoping to use it for extra storage were wrong.

now you know so you wont be surprised that you cant dump your armor/weapons there either

The requirements for pvp titles are a joke. They should display all titles pvp and pve no matter what rank you have. It's a monument for me not everyone else.

You need to be wearing them. When I had my Primeval/Ancient/Canthan combo on it asked me if I wanted to place those sets on, then told me to take a hike because none of them were complete. So I changed into the full Vabbi (minus headpiece) and was allowed to put that on. It didn't register it while it was my inventory.

I have a question also. I haven't been able to use any of the other monuments, is this because you need tapestries? If so, where from?

I was kinda hoping that the HoM being at the beginning would mean I could stash my other toon's gear for GW2 - not as extra storage. I'm aware it doesn't work like that - without dragging all of them through the whole expansion...

What I was thinking was allow titles to show up at level one, but they get more extravagent the higher the rank.

Anyone displayed anything on their weapons monument yet? It just says it needs to be "worthy" in order to display....meaning GWEN specific stuff. haha.

personally, im ok w/ the minipets thing (as I already put in more than 11 atm. ), it's the weapons that I want some answers on....like in wiki is it just speculation of these quest specific items that can be displayed in the weps monuments. pics would be appreciated if anyones able to put in something there. /thx.
