Allow Gwen's Flute into the HoM for GW2 mention?

Very simple idea...

With the War in Kryta stuff going on perhaps the player could have a chance to get a mention in the future from Gwen's descendant.

Add the green, Gwen's Flute, and in GW2 perhaps he could recognise your own descendants as those from a line of people that had a part in shaping his own line, perhaps giving you an item from his own family or EVEN something of Gwen's personal keepsake.

Since she regarded the player (from Proph) as such an important friend and possibly even a role model this would be quite a nice touch considering Gwen was already a huge point of discussion on the forums prior to EoTN regarding her tapestry shred and such.


This of course all becomes moot if Anet have already snuck a bit of dialogue recognition in there not seen via a monument..

This is kind of silly, and another thing for non-prophecies characters to cry "unfair!" about. Wouldn't doing something like killing the Great Destroyer be enough for recognition?

Unless other campaign characters get their own equivalents.

Bad idea... Every NPC would then see that your the decendant of the idiot who killed the Guardian that kept one of the Dragons at bay....

/Apart from that I dont really see the point of Gwens flute being in the HOM as the player is not related to Gwen and therefore the descendant cant be either.

Which dragon? As far as I know, the players delayed the awakening of the dragons. . .

OP interesting concept, I will give you that, but it does promote unfairness to those who have other campaigns and not prophecies.

The Gwen-related items where given to her after the Great Destroyer was defeated.
Your descendants can't have them.
Wait, you mean the green item?
Hm...
It would be hard for me. I give the item to Gwen [hero] so she still keeps it.

^ Rather see that, but /notsigned.

Besides, with Gwen's Flute there could be some tie in GW2 with Logan Thackeray possibly having it.

/not signed With the help of a Deldrimor armor remnant, you can put GWEN in the HoM. (well, a statue of her, anyway)

Actually....


Add one green item per category to the possible Hall of Monuments selection.

Gwen's Flute.

Shiro's Blades.

Urgoz's Longbow.

Mallyx's wands.

Kanaxai's Axe.

Dhuum's Scythe.

Traveller's Staff.

Etc.

Gather iconic green items that show trials and feats of the wielders, and add one item per weapon category to allow an alternative choice besides Destroyer and Torment weaponry. This will round out the monument, allowing people to choose different things, as well as provide people who don't like the burnt or insane aesthetic a few alternatives. And each demands little programming, since it is only one item per slot.

Might even add new greens for sword, spear, and shield to give them more iconic options. The Hero's Sword, for example, would be a great way to remember the ghostly hero in prophecies. Add a high level enemy into Torment that appears after doing all the master level quests who is carrying a Spear of the Sun or whatever. And put a shield....somewhere.

It'll add completion to the monument, making it less of a "I spent lots and lots of money buying tormented gemstones/putting all those diamonds to use", and more of a "I have been everywhere, done everything, saved the world, and all I got was this t-shirt. And this loot."

I would like to add a half-eaten blob (once thought to be Gwen) to my HoM but we all know thats not going to happen. While your idea is pretty nice maybe they could introduce it through other means instead of HoM.

I'm fairly sure that if they want a player to interact with Gwen's descendant, there will be some kind of trinket to locate within GW2 itself, and that bringing anything over from the HoM will be unnecessary.

If I had to pick something in the current HoM to serve this purpose though, it would be the LDoA statue.
