Should i be more concerned with equiping each of my characters with what weapon they really need or is this going to be some new title thingy where as if i have every weapon in the HoM unlocked, i get something.

Right now, im equiping each of my characters with one set of destroyer weapons, i just dont want this to come back and bite me in the butt, and later find out you needed to add all the weapons to one guy, to unlock something.

Nobody knows for sure what it will unlock, how it will unlock and Anet isn't saying

or if it will unlock....i don't think anything will actually happen when you get them all in your HoM

Crom The Pale · Sep 29, 2007, 10:53 PM // 22:53

Knowing Anet the weapons will unlock a Title, with rank = to number of weapons on display for that particular char. This is just a guess, but does fit with Anets logic.

the only thing I've done in HoM is put up the tapestries. I will not make any irreversible decisions without knowing the outcome. Many people have already been burned -- those who put weapons up before customizing them (they can't be customized afterwards), people not knowing that putting their minipets customized them to that character, etc.

As far as I'm concerned, HoM doesn't even exist, despite the deafening hype Gaile and Anet gave it.

Ouch, not customized
I didnt even think of that, im lucky i upgraded my weapons 1st, who would want to display a clean weapon? I dont think you should be able to because that would burn my cookies if i found out the hard way.

Could you fill the Destroyer weapons display with the same weapon, just multiple stats? I wish we had more input on the HoM so we didnt make huge costly mistakes.

I really hope these things have a small impact on GW2. <_<

tuna-fish_sushi · Sep 30, 2007, 01:21 AM // 01:21

I hope there huge, I played all summer to get FoW armor and I put it proudly into Hall of Monuments, well not huge but something significant worth noting. Not just a lousy Title but mabye like we start with a special weapon or something.

Vilaptca · Sep 30, 2007, 03:52 AM // 03:52

Pretty sure they already fixed the weapon customization part...

And for anyone to think that there would not be any negative for putting up minis in their HoM is crazy. There had to be a way to prevent people from sharing minipets and allowing everyone and their mom to have every single minipet on every single character. And to then give that minipet to their friend and have them do the same thing.

Anyways, don't be concerned at all about the Hall of Monuments until they release some real information about what will carry over and what kind of benefits you'll get from it. I'm not going to grind out all these title tracks, hero armors, destroyer weapons, only to find out in two years that all I got was a title. All I'm saying is take your time, don't worry about it. If you want to work on your weapons, go ahead, but don't rush, you've got 2 frickin years and no reason (at the moment) to worry about what kind of reward you'll be getting.

Don't say that, you'll give Anet the ideas since they are unable to come up with any particularly good ones themselves.

I am getting my Destroyer weapons and equipping them on the appropriate characters for the class it belongs to. But I am not doing anything with them HoM-wise until we know more definate information about them. I can't see any need to put up a shield, scythe, axe, sword, staff, offhand all on my ranger (my title RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GO) to make it be customized to him. That prevents my warrior from using the weapons for a year and half when it may not even be necessary to put them all on one character.

My advice, just wait, don't worry about the hall until the hall becomes relevant.

i hate destroyer weps, they all are lousy

KamikazeChicken · Sep 30, 2007, 06:58 AM // 06:58

The HoM for 1 character will link directly to a character in GW2. I wouldn't suggest spreading things around. Just don't put anything on display until GW2 comes out, or you're ready to quit GW.

umm, i already unlocked HoM with 7/8 of my characters, bought all 4 tapestrys, and already displayed weapons, armor, titles, pets and Hero's.
How is this going to hurt me when GW2 comes out?

Longasc · Sep 30, 2007, 09:26 AM // 09:26

Nobody knows what the various HoM options will give us in GW2, probably not even ANet at the moment. They might have a vague idea, but not more.

I got 3 destroyer weapons for my necro (Curses Wand/Focus + SR staff) and put everything else on hold.

I suggest the following:

Safe your Onyx and Diamonds for later
Wait till we have further info if it makes sense to put multiple wands or non-profession related weapons (Bows for a Necros?) in the HoM.

Yeah no super unique armour or wearable item cause it 'would be unfair' to the new players only starting in GW2 or never worked for it in GW...

Ghey... With an H... Obviously.

No one has "been burned", as you put it--this bug was already fixed with zero lasting consequences, even for the people that triggered the bug.

On topic: I'm not doing anything with the Hall yet. What's the rush?

Steboy93 · Sep 30, 2007, 03:34 PM // 15:34

The only things im putting in the hall right now are titles, armour and heros.

Same. I don't like destroyer weapons, and unless they change it so you can add other certain items, I'll only buy destroyer weapons when everything else is taken cared of and I have some extra money because I know I'm not going to actually be using them in the game.

Mini-pets... I'll wait a while for other birthdays and what not. No reason rushing around like a madman buying all the ones I like when I have years until GW2 comes out and no one even knows what putting this stuff in our HoM does. Is it based on what ones you put in, or how many, or etc? Would be nice to be given some clue, but as someone said, ANet probably doesn't even know now.

MirageMaster · Sep 30, 2007, 04:02 PM // 16:02

I hate anet for doing this bullshit.I should put in my favorit weapons not the ones blody anet wants me! screw them!
