Guild Wars 2

I think all Guild Wars players loved the Hall of Monuments in the EotN and in the end it actually rewarded players for Guild Wars 2.

Now after playing Guild Wars 2 for many hours I kinda miss the old Guild Wars feeling. I’m not gonna discuss all the things I miss but one of them is the old feeling for the Hall of Monuments.

I would really like to see a new Guild Wars 2 version of the Hall of Monuments so that my achievements will feel rewarded again. The current achievement system is just another achievement system while the Hall of Monuments system was something unique.

For example:
- 100% map completion is also rewarded in the HoM and not only for getting a part of the ‘legendary’ weapon.
- Some titles like ‘Dungeon Master’ will be portraited in the HoM with other titles.
- The ‘legendary’ weapon will be portraited in the HoM just like old GW exotics.

There are many many more things that could be portraited in the HoM but I just gave a few examples and YES for some reason I miss the title grinding. This doesn’t mean that ANet has to implement grinding, noooooo. But (for example) I did not mind grinding the sunspear title at all.

The Hall of Monuments in GW:EotN was something unique and very fun/rewarding and I would really like to see this in Guild Wars 2.

this is the sort of thing I’d like to see in the home instance as player housing

AGREED. player housing is the way ahead, LOTRO did this well

This is a very good idea. I wouldn’t care if it’s a home instance or if they just use the hall of monuments, but some area where you can display your achievements (dungeon + cultural armor & weapons, title, legendaries etc…) would be nice. This also would motivate people to play more dungeons and not only cof p1.
Also they could add a title for every 5 (or 10 or whatever) things you display in this hall of monuments, sth like the god walking amongs mortals title in gw1.
Also i cannot imagine that this would be a big programming effort.

i may be wrong but i think runescape started it

I personally wish that the Hall of Monuments had continued to display our previous in game achievements, even if they had fallen into ruin, and then somewhere else we see the current achievements. Sadly, the first time I walked into the Hall of Monuments… empty… *tear… Everything I worked so hard for… gone.

he didn’t say that LOTRO was the FIRST to do it, he said that LOTRO did it in a good way, 2 very different things

(now i haven’t really played runescape at all, and didnt play LOTRO enoguh to get a good option on the housing there so wont comment on if i agree with it though)
