Since the benefit of dedicating items in GW1 is likely to be significantly less than the value of said dedicated piece (including titles, which are expensive in terms of time spent) I think there's going to be mad people anyway.

No...

I think the rewards for your HoM in GW2 will be inconsequential cosmetics.
I think a full display on each monument is all that is needed.
I don't think there will be extra rewards for having more than 20 minipets, more than 11 weapons etc.
I don't think quality will matter - 20 limited/gold/green minis won't count for anything more than 20 white minis.

Anyone who thinks differently... well you might be right in the end. But you could also be setting yourself up for a big disappointment, and doing a lot of grind for nothing.

I just did the minimum needed to fill my HoM. Any extras that are in there, are from things I did for my own enjoyment, or my own sense of achievement, or things that fell into my lap (eg. birthday presents).

If I need to actually have the mini's, armors, weapons etc still in my posession... I won't get mad. I'll just buy/craft them again. Won't cost much cos I didn't bother with anything expensive to start with.

In any case - personally, I suspect that getting any HoM rewards at all will involve linking your GW2 account to an NCsoft master account. In which case I am already prepared to get NOTHING for my HoM. Because unless there's some other VERY compelling reason to do it - I will avoid linking to a master account like the plague.

I could not care less. I keep it all.

What me pisses of is that i get banned for botting while i dont use bots.
And The GM's of NCsoft do nothing about it.
They are really incompentent and have no clue what they doing

**cosyfiep** · May 19, 2010, 04:08 PM // 16:08

I still have all the stuff that I put in the HoM (on mules et al) so that wouldnt bother me in the slightest....(having to have them all on the character that put them in their would since 20 minis, 11 weapons, 5 sets of armor would take up my entire inventory spaces!)

not a problem in my book

(and some people just like the mini pets---they dont give my rats behind about the HoM so buying dedicated minis is just fine for them)

I really don't think there is going to be any advantages to haveing a HoM other than keeping your names and maybe getting something special that you can't trade or sell anyway.

It has to be something special, it just has to be.

definetley. though Anet are one of the few companies that don't have spontaneous bouts of idiocy so we should be fine. it would also make little sense to have all ancestors named the same. and the HoM achievements are meant to be account wide too.

No, it would not make me angry. I have no expectations for the HoM, so any benefit is merely a bonus. It also would not apply, because I have all the dedicated items.

I expect a great deal of complaints whenever details of the rewards for HoM in GW2 are revealed. Some people seem to believe what they want rather than what is known, which is very little at this point. The rewards cannot possibly match up to their hype and expectations.

I think people are hoping for too much in GW2. Don't, you will be very disappointed.

Looks like my "question" which required an "answer" got moved to Riverside from Q&A.

Perhaps somebody assumed your question was merely rhetorical?

It fits best here. To quote the sticky in Q&A:

You've opened a discussion. There isn't a right or wrong answer to your question, and the answers are going to be a little more detailed than the "What armor should I get?" type of opinion-based questions in Q&A.

a while ago they changed customized pets to dedicated they would not have done this if u needed to keep your items

that wouldnt surprise me but might tick me off but just for a bit probably as long as the tourney did but hey i did return too decent of a game to not play seeing its free

Hyperventilate · May 21, 2010, 08:41 PM // 20:41

I'd be pretty pissed. But then again, I refuse to dedicate ANYTHING until I know how the HoM will work and what will be beneficial (If anything) to bring over. I don't see A-net doing something like this, but if it happened I'm sure there'd be public lynchings.
