Filling up my HoM - Guild Wars Forums

Mini Axe Warrior · Feb 19, 2011, 10:29 PM // 22:29

I was wondering what would be the best way to fill up my HoM. I have around 300-350k to spend on stuff but I'm not sure how to get the most Points for what I have. I really don't play much anymore so I don't know the prices.

By filling up, do you mean 30/50 or 50/50? 50/50 will cost a lot, so I'll assume you mean 30/50:

- rare mini: you should've gotten a mini celestial rabbit last week during Canthan New Year. If you didn't, try to get a cheap one (or get lucky with bday presents).
- unique mini: black moa chick.

- 3 more hero armors.
- rare pet.

- 2 of the cheapest elite armors (eotn armor run around 60-65k for a full 5 piece set, but you don't need the head piece for the HoM).

- Destroyer weapon (get diamonds/onyx with dungeons, perhaps with one of the many dungeon speedclears such as SoOSC).
- Oppressor weapon (War in Kryta content)

This will get you 23/50.

After that you have to make a choice. Get more titles (you are missing almost all elite areas, do them, they're fun!), more hero armors, more minis, more weapons, or any combination to get the 7 remaining points.

Example of a way to get to 30/50 from that previous 23/50:

- 9 more of the cheapest minis
- 2 more weapons
- 5 more hero armors
- all elite areas, lightbringer/sunspear, kurzick/luxon r4, survivor.

Like I said, there are many more combinations, you can choose which ones you think are easiest / fastest / cheapest.

You mean Rabbit. Rabbit was last week; Tiger was last year. Otherwise, awesome post.
I think 50k is still currently a reasonable target for rabbits.

For buying birthday minis, I'm personally finding this to be a good guideline to follow right now (bump the prices by about 50% for fast purchases)...
First Year: Whites - 3k max; purple - 10k max.
Second Year: Whites - 5-7k max; purple - 15-20k max.
Third Year: Whites - 10k max. You can get purples for around 20-25k, too, if you work at it.

Sorry yeah Rabbit of course

Another couple of quick things:

For the rare pet - the Imperial Phoenix is very easy to get...just finish the last mission in Factions with charm animal equipped (you can put your celestial skill over it), and there should be a phoenix near the emperor at the end of the celebration.

For the Hero Armors - The first challenge mission in nightfall is pretty easy, and drops at least the first 3 or 4 hero armors pretty quick. If you do it on 2 characters, you should be able to get all the pieces you need for the heroes that can wear it.

Titles - Unfortunately you just missed the boardwalk, where about 80 or 90k would have be enough to get you to level 2 in Lucky & Unlucky, which is enough to get them in the hall.

If you are looking for a good way to turn money into points, minipets and armor get you quite a bit. Outside of that, hero armors and rare pets are easy enough to nab without a ton if time invested. I only have 1 maxed title, but I managed to get to at least 30/50:

There's actually one right where you spawn after you defeat Shiro.

If you need to gather Onyx quickly, FoWSC (Fissure Speed Clear) is probably the fastest way (aside from buying it), you're guaranteed at least one from the end chest, plus the shards will help pay for other additions to you HoM.
