Look into the Pool in your HoM (Clip: The First Vision) and after this you'll get 1 when you talk to Gwen

Happy Gaming!

And btw, if HoM stays like it is now, it's a shame to show it to your friends, nothing beatyful at it

IMO quit bizzitching, get over it. THIS IS BETA GWEN. People complain too early when Anet makes a mistake. Remember this is a PREVIEW weekend. Quit crying.

Just like millions of scrubs cried for hours when glad title was bugged, people are doing the same now. FFS I can't stress it enough, be patient.

Beta gwen? The release is in a week and all the hard copies are already shipped to retailers. I did not pay them to release a beta, I paid for a final polished version and not a half-assed attempt at HoM.

Fog Accomplice · Aug 25, 2007, 05:29 PM // 17:29

I heard from a super-PvE obsessed guildie of mine that PvE titles are also really sucky to look at in the HoM and only PvP titles will truly add anything to the place. This really sucks too because he's a legendary cartographer, legendary skill hunter, etc.

Can anyone agree/disagree with this? I don't have the EotN expansion yet so I'm kind of in the dark...

Sarevok Thordin · Aug 25, 2007, 05:36 PM // 17:36

The main thing I want from the HoM is for PvP titles of ANY rank to have an affect. Obviously, upgradable after being set and they get more flash after you rank up and goto reset it.

Otherwise it kinda screws you.

Takeko Nakano · Aug 25, 2007, 05:49 PM // 17:49

Yeah, HoM seriously needs to be sorted out. And, no, this is NOT Beta. We've got a week until full release. If we don't raise hell to get this sorted out then nothing will change.

What I want to see:

1. Armour and weapons sorted out. Specifically show armour pieces bought, not only if sets are bought. And actually show them!

2. Heroes that you get, not just one with upgraded armour.

3. Ranks shown REGARDLESS of what level they're at.

Agreed with all three. Especially number 3. Some people might only have a bambi, but those people might also be the ones that earned that bambi when it was challenging back during prophecies only, we worked just as hard.

This will be a rough week at the Anet office. :P

You did so you could display it in the HoM without knowing whether you'd be able to display it all...wow...thats...not very clever?

So far after playing most of yesterday and a bit today.

I really didn't know what to expect from the HOM.
I am disappointed in the Hall of Monuments extremely.
I have eight level 20 characters two of which have finished at least one game.
I have two more I am working up to level 20.
Why do I not get recognition for this? Because I don't really play PVP much!
I love this game in PVE. Can I get some love in the HOM since my understanding is that for GW2 it is for PVE only equipment!

I love the GWEN PVE game, The boxing is fun and LOL.
I am so impressed with the look and feel of the game and play.
Much fun has been had.

Great job on the game Anet. HOM needs work IMHO (and oh so many posted here).

SightlessBlind · Aug 26, 2007, 02:27 AM // 02:27

So far I am for thinking that I will just not activate the pet monument when I get the game on the 1st. I didnt get the pre release because i work on weekends.

*sigh*

This is how it is for me with every nice weekend event.

Meat Axe · Aug 26, 2007, 03:28 PM // 15:28

On the whole, I loved the pre release weekend (would play more, but over here it's 1:20 am and I have to be up in 5 hours time). I was a bit disappointed when I went to put titles into my HoM and found that I could only display PvP ones (which I don't have). But I got over it. I realised that chances are that PvE titles are going to be added with the full release.

I would also prefer my own armour to be displayed, but I can understand why Anet wanted to do it this way. 202 different displays is quite a lot to create. Same goes for non-maxed titles. How much time do you guys think Anet wants to spend making benefits for GW2? Because there has to be a different benefit for each rank in a title.

So I enjoyed myself this weekend (I wish I could have found those damn reindeer and tried to charm one, but I went to the spots where there were reported sightings, and none appeared. So I'll just have to wait a week). Chin up, people. It was just a preview event. Not everything is fully working yet. And for that stuff that is fully working, constructive criticism is always good (Note the keyword there: constructive).

Not knowing what kinda of rewards our hall will hand down to our GW2 characters, I have another red flag on Character Based halls. When GW first came out, we had 4 character slots... 3 if you wanted to do any PvP. My first character was a Mesmer that completed the game, like everyone else, but as time dragged on and I made more characters, someone had to go, so she was deleted. (sorry...)

If in GW2 you get some kind of title (for example) passed down to a single character, and then must delete or remake them for some reason, is there then no indication available for my account that I used to be Kind of a Big Deal?

I put a few thousand hours into titles. And for it to say I've only achieved "People Know Me of the Kind of a Big Deal" Title Track instead of listing them individually hurts the Slip. Glad I didn't finish vanquishing areas!!!

Arthos · Aug 26, 2007, 06:34 PM // 18:34

honestly who wants to show off some random professions armor sets..
really hope this is changed

Ice Of Dragons · Aug 26, 2007, 06:58 PM // 18:58

they should maka HoM acount based , all titles , herose whitout req a
2nd armor , ........ but so far GW:EN is a great GW expansion

bigroach · Aug 26, 2007, 07:06 PM // 19:06

only allowing pvp titles makes sense.

since HOM will transfer benefits to gw2, pve titles will have no bearing in gw2. they are completely different pve games.

whereas pvp is more generic and the titles are vague and could apply to gw2.

the main thing about HOM that doesn't make sense to me is the monument of valor--I don't understand why it is EOTN weapons only.

motionless · Aug 26, 2007, 08:00 PM // 20:00

A few days ago i jus brough my mini bone dragon and i put it in hall of mournment........i didnt know it will customized my bone dragon and its stuck with one of character that i don play often....

any way to reverse it or something T.T if not i have to buy one more ....

sad....

Shanaeri Rynale · Aug 26, 2007, 08:06 PM // 20:06

I was kinda hoping to see a statue of my Shan, in her armor like a proper monument. It all seems too impersonal atm. Like a collection of Gw 1 stuff in a shiny room..

Ouch. Wasn't there a warning about the customisation? I haven't put any in yet but not really that bothered about it tbh, all my chars have a particular mini pet that they carry. Kuunie stays with Saraphim and always will.

That said, I do think customisation per account or a pet NPC would have been better, it would be a nice gesture from A.net if they un-customised those who have inadvertantly done it in the preview weekend.

Clone · Aug 26, 2007, 09:15 PM // 21:15

My suggestion to Anet per minis:

Create a Toymaker NPC, somewhat akin to the festival hat makers. If you show him a customized mini, he "learns" how to make that toy for the 10g fee. He won't "learn" anything that isn't customized, and all minis he recreates will be customized.
