HoM armor

i just got the tapestry for the armor part of HoM and it wont let me add the Elite Gladiators armor from marhan's grotto to display, is there some thing im missing from this?

I have the full 5 peices but i dont use the helm, that is in my bags, not sure if i need the 5 parts equiped or not but even when i do equip all 5 it still gives no option to display the armor

1. Set the HoM to character view, not account view, to check whether you really have a tapestry displayed on that particular character (talk to Kimmes the Historian in the HoM near the portal to switch views).

2. Equip 4 pieces of the same elite armor set (chest, arms, legs and feet; head piece is never needed).

I think the helmet is required for elite armors....try equipping that and adding it.

Quoted from wiki: Only the four body armor pieces are required to dedicate a set, even if there is a headpiece available for it.
So, headpiece is never needed.
It sounds like you should be able to display that armor. What happens when you click on the monument and attempt to display the armor?

i think thats why, i have the tapestry for armors on my Ranger not my warrior, but i was trying with the 'show account awards' and not own character.

Guess i need to find more tapestries on my warrior.

thanks for the replies all, much appretiated

Thats incorrect as there are plenty of armors that dont have a headpiece... for example: Obsidian armor for ranger, necro, elementalist and mesmer.

These armors still can be displayed in your HOM (it just shows the armor without a headpiece).

I also have a Gladiator armor from my warrior... at that time that armor didnt had a helmet (that was added much later, but i didnt like it so i didnt buy it). My warrior's HOM still shows the full set (including the helmet that i dont have).
