Hall of Monumental Frustration.
1 2
I found the hall of monuments pretty straight forward and easy to use
1st person worldwide to reach 35,000 achievement points.
I don´t have GW1 or EOTN, yet I can go into the HoM using a Stone Portal some NPC gave me. Of course, the hall is totally empty, but I can go there If I want…

I spent quite a while trying that. I made a new character and spoke with Kimmes in Ascalon, pre-Searing. Neither worked.
And there’s your problem. You dont get there in the tutorial. You get there by reaching level 10 AFTER the Searing.
I’ve got a level 14 necro/something and a level 17 mesmer/elementalist. The mesmer/elementalist is parked at the HoM until I can get the account linking sorted, and I’ve spent quite a while trying to fix the problem by entering the HoM and poking Kimmes with sticks, baguettes, small skyscrapers and anything else I thought would work.
I created a brand new character to try talking to Kimmes in Ascalon. Yes, there is a Kimmes in Ascalon, pre-Searing, specifically placed there by the developers when they realized there was a large portion of the population who preferred to keep at least one character in pre-Searing but who also wanted access to HoM things.
The first sentence of the paragraph you quoted indicated that I did go to Kimmes in the HoM and toggle the option between personal and account, as just a flesh wound suggested. The second sentence indicated that I attempted a secondary solution.
Question: What exactly is Kimmes saying when you talk to him? That might help diagnose the problem a little better.
Edit: Nevermind, I see the account link problem. You should call support and they should fix it for you.

I think I got to about 30/50 and GWAMM then stopped. I’ve never been big on collecting every prestige weapon and armour set. I did enjoy the titles but, yes, some of those took a real effort to get. Sometimes I see people complaining about “grind” in GW2 and think back to some of those GW1 titles…
How many points in the HoM do you have?
5, if I can get the accounts linked. 3 for linking, 2 for… dedicating(?) the minis I’ve collected from my birthday gifts (one was gold, four white).
Well, if all he has done is linked he should have 3 points minimum and Kimmes should give him access to the armor for those points. He might need to wait 24 hours though for it to update.
What you might try, OP, and I know it’s a pain, but go back into Guild Wars 1 if it hasn’t updated after 24 hours have gone by. Talk to Kimmes again and toggle the options in between account and character a few times. Then log out of that game. Log into this game and speak to Kimmes in gw2 again.

The problem appears to be my account name. I can’t change it to my e-mail address, so I can’t link the GW account to my GW2 account. It’s not a matter of being unable to change it for personal or esoteric reasons, the option to change it simply doesn’t exist.
I went through the support articles to find the process for changing the account name. The article ( https://help.guildwars2.com/entries/28147506-Guild-Wars-Accounts-Their-Effect-on-Guild-Wars-2 ) which should have addressed the problems I’ve been beating my face against said I have to edit my profile. This is where the entire process comes to a sudden collision against the wall of reality:
There is no option to edit my profile. I can edit passwords on both accounts, birth date, my real name, but neither account gives me the option to modify the account name. So I can’t link the accounts by changing info on either, because the option to make the necessary changes don’t exist for either account.
The only option presented is verification on the GW account name, and that doesn’t work because the @ncsoft appended to my GW account name keeps trying to send e-mail to me @ncsoft, rather than to my proper e-mail address (same e-mail address i was using when i installed GW over 5 years ago).
I opened a support ticket this morning. They made this mess, they can clean it up. Thank you, just a flesh wound, for trying to help.
I don’t know if this will help you or not, but this is where I changed my ncsoft account to a different email.
