Guild Wars 2

Is there a guide out there somewhere that details how to get the GW2 achievements from the Hall of Monuments from playing GW1?

I’m very interested to know which achievements come from playing the original game, from the expansions, if there’s an “easiest” way to get a significant number of AP, how hard the titles are to achieve, etc.

Anything like this exist? Anybody with enough knowledge to provide some incite?

I don’t own GW1 or any of the expansions, but I’m interested in the idea of buying them mostly for the potential AP in GW2.

Thanks.

There are a ton of guides. The wiki also has one.

Don’t expect to get everything within a month aince it requires a lot of time to get max points. Best advice is to start by doing all of the storylines from the campaigns.

Well, I will tell you right now, that the Hall of Monuments itself exists in the Eye of the North Expansion, which is not a standalone title.

You will need at least one of the standalone campaigns and the expansion to even have a hall of monuments to dedicate achievements in.

I would strongly recommend having all three campaigns in addition to the expansion, however.

There are 5 Monumental Tapestries in your HoM where different categories of items can be dedicated.

Cash will get you most of what you need, and how you go about farming your money is entirely up to you. There is one tapestry that is dedicated to your titles earned, and again….. several titles can be earned with cold hard cash. It is entirely up to you how you go about doing it.

Check out the guide here for more information.

This is the best guide I read about getting 30/50 in the HoM, that is what you need to get all the bonus items, above that you only get tittles.

Still, be warned: you still need to donate a lot of time into GW1 even if you’re only going for 30 points.
