Im assuming that anything in the hall of monuments is what you can take with u to gw2. if thats the case...all armor should be placeable in the hall of monuments...including hero armor. cuz like for most heros, normal armor looks better than their elite armor.

Wrong. Get your facts straight before posting threads like these please.

uuuhhhh.... I sincerely hope I do not see any GW1 armours in GW2. As nice as the GW1 armours are, I'd expect to see some much more impressive new armour in GW2 and not just clones of GW1 armour. What a disappointment that would be.

Have you seen some of the impressive new armor in GW:EN or Nightfall!!!

Seriously, armor appeal is subjective. Meaning while I find the armor they have for the ranger in Nightfall to be horrible, you may actually like one of them. The only way to ensure happiness in a larger number of people (never everyone) is to give the largest selection possible. The old armor is already modeled. The models and textures would have to be updated (like most of the GW:EN armor is just a re-texture of pre-existing armor) it would allow for a larger selection of armor and ANET would not have to invest that much into resources.

if you make GW1 Armor for GW2, you are asking Anet to bring forward the old 3D structure of the character/armor into GW2, they will start re-skin the old armor, which is what a lot of players are complaining about.

or you have 2 different set of 3D structures for one profession and players like me who have bad connection and low computer configurations will be standing in battle and other players will think wow, look at that beautiful GW1 armor but its not moving, lets report them as leecher, but in fact its not the players fault, its the fault of lag and having too many 3D structure to render that cause me to stand in a battle posing....

/rant off

so unless you want the old 3D structure to be reskin, I'd says don't put the old armor in GW2. make new ones that are more flexible when Anet wishes to reskin them that no one will notice that its the same 3D structure hahahaha, i know it can be done, you just need one very good 3D frame and you can reskin it to you delights and players won't notice it. probably some would bah, i don't know,

anyway, the thing is, as much as I agree with you that the armor from GW 1 are all very beautiful, I rather they not use the same 3D frames.

so

No, you fail.

Some of the better elite hero armors actually look better than 75% of the armors in the game.

Because even if they do, they'll do something about it.

This is a nonsense suggestion, seeing as HoM has nothing to do with "bringing things with you" and the entire graphical engine, model system, and everything else will be different in GW2.

Has it even been said what the Hall of Monuments really will do in terms of GW2 about *anything*? We're jumping the gun quite a bit assuming it is about taking tangible things with you.

notsigned ...

I want also to see absolutely new armors..no reskin armors anymore and especially bugless armors with NO clipping errors

As others have said, that isnt how it works. All you get is a tiny (probably pointless) reward in GW2 for every item you have collected in your HOM.

You cant take weapons or armor or heroes or any items into GW2 from your HOM. Its most likely you will get some special bonus weapon or special mini pet or something collectable for all that effort of filling your HOM.

I seriously doubt it would be anything hugely usefull.

But I personally think they should let us take atleast one armor set and one weapon into GW2. But that would no doubt increase the work load and id rather they focused on an entirely new game and not redesigning existing textures.
