Curse

So I am standing in my HoM, for quite some time I have been working a bit on pimping it. You know, getting mini pets, hero armor, titles and so on...
I have quite a few things to show on my honor, but here is the thing that is really pissing me off. No matter how many times I press *Rearrange the display* some title combonations never come.

Is this pissing you off as well, or don't you care at all ?

I wish It'd just have a ''Randomize'' option, and then an option to display whatever titles/armor you want in your order.

But honestly I don't care at all, no biggie.

The way it's organized it rather silly. I still haven't quite figured out how it moves the statues around, or how it acts when you add a new statue. Although, the only ones I have trouble with are Honor and Fellowship, since I don't have more than 2 elite armour sets on any character.

Qual · Jan 13, 2008, 06:16 PM // 18:16

A simple option so we could chose which statuts to show, would indeed be nice. You hear me Gailie ?! :P

There have been several posts about this in the "Sardelac Sanitarium" forum. Given that GW1 is developmentally dead, I doubt a user-sortable feature will be added to the HoM anytime soon.

Its how easily it could be changed that makes me angry. Plus, HoM was such a major disappointment, this little "bug" is just...dumb.

Ahh...Anet.

I seem to remember seeing proof somewhere that the way the statues were arranged was the any 5 statues that are consecutive in a list can be shown together but apart from that it is impossible. I can't, however remember whether this list was the same as the one shown in the HoM or a different list altogether.

This has pissed me off ever since HOM came out.

Although the OP is incorrect when he says some combinations would never appear. They would appear eventually. It's just that "eventually" is too insanely ludicrous to be viable.

When HOM first came out a poster here did the mathematical calculations about this about how many clicks it would take to get the exact combination you want with a fair number of titles. I don't remember the exact numbers, but it was something like a few million clicks IIRC.

It should definitely be changed so you can display exact specific titles of your choosing.

That needs proof, because after something like 200-300 clicks, I don't belive it anymore :S

Display management options are very weak I agree. I for one would like to see better facilities for rearrangement of Monuments, pets etc etc

We have been told tho that changes will come over time, and I believe this particular idea is one that surfaces regularly...ergo it stands a reasonable chance of happening.

In my experience, this is how title rearranging works. It's sort of like a circle, so you can only look at 5 consecutive titles, in the order that you put them in the HoM.

200 - 300 won't cut it. I bet if you clicked it like 5 million times though, you'd see the combo you want come to be from one of those clicks. Or you could wait til someone who is good at math comes along and posts the mathematical calculations again in this thread which could give you a more precise number which would still be too ludicrous to do.

They should make up for this by turning it into a slot machine. Get four Canthan titles to show and you win 1k!

I think this is how it works... I highly doubt that clicking 5 million times would work. Because after something like 50 clicks or less, you start to see the same combonations again...

Snograt · Jan 13, 2008, 07:08 PM // 19:08

It's cyclic. Every time I add a statue I can return to my original configuration of Holy LB Leg. Guardian, Leg Skillhunter, Leg. Cartographer, Leg. Spearmarshal. Doesn't matter what I add, that configuration is always available after several clicks.

Awesome! Now HoM will have some use.

Totally agree, this really frustrates me as well.

MMSDome · Jan 13, 2008, 07:30 PM // 19:30

yea its frustrating but its not like it really matters

Lady Raenef · Jan 13, 2008, 07:36 PM // 19:36

There's so many rants about this issue that it surprises me Anet still hasn't taken the intiative to go ahead and do this for us. It's not hard. Besides, maybe I don't want to display 5 monuments for my title. Honestly, I'd rather just have my most hard working title up on there, with the Luxon and Kurzick banners next to it. It looks nice. But, I have to clutter it with two more. If people want to see my stuff, they just go to it.

Lord Sojar · Jan 13, 2008, 07:47 PM // 19:47

Yeh, just a little check box system that allows you to display which one, and then a rearrange button for those 5. Even that would suffice.
