Monuments stay in HoM after deleting the char?

Well, I've got 2 characters that I don't really play anymore. They just didn't get deleted yet because they've got quite some monuments already..

So now with this update, I was wondering if the Monuments will still appear on the account wide view of the Hall of Monuments after you delete the character?

Anyone tested this already? I'd like to know before I delete them..

No, once you delete the character, the monument goes with them.

Actually if you delete your characters the monument stays. Just tried it with 2 characters, kept every one of their monuments.

just make sure your HOM is account wide and it will stay.
