Hey guys, I’ve bought Guild Wars Prophecies and EotN a couple of days ago and I would appreciate some advice on how to get points easily in the Hall of Monuments for rewards in GW2.
To be clear, I am only aiming at 10+ points, I’m not looking to get all 50.
It would be hard to reach 10 points with Prophecies only tbh, since most trading happens in Kamadan (Nightfall) and you will need to trade many items with players. It is possible without trading but as I see it, it won’t be easy nor fast.
Linking accounts gives you 3 points. Beat Prophecies NM for 2 statues which will get you 2 points. Then you could craft 5 armors, either prestige from Marhan’s Grotto/Granite Citadel or from the EotN titles (rank 5 needed), which will give you 4 points. Then you could craft a destroyer weapon to get that 1 point you need to hit 10.
After beating Prophecies you could do War in Kryta which will give you access to Oppressor weapons for some more points. If you don’t want to do War in Kryta, you could try Cartographer, Skill Hunter and Vanquisher, which would be hard with limited heroes. Your best farming option would probably be solo UW, I hope I helped a bit, 31/50 by 400 hours through all campaigns.
I did eventually realize that without the other two campaigns, getting points isn’t that easy. I am not planning to buy them anytime soon though, so I really appreciated the wiki link and what Aquila wrote, as all the guides I found worked only if you had all three campaigns.
If you could do that BrotherBelial, that would be amazing! The time works for me, I’ll be able to play the game from around 1pm. PM me or the forum if you want to coordinate more.

My alt account only includes Prophecies and Eye of the North and earned 30 HoM points. All it takes is the kindness of friends (and my primary account, which supplied mats and did some of the shopping).
Minis can be begged, borrowed, or bought. (“borrowed” although the mini returned will be reduced in value)
Of the three weapon sets, you can obtain two directly on your own and the other can be obtained for you or bought directly. Destroyer weapons are part of EotN and Oppressor weapons part of GWB/Prophecies (a free mini expansion to the game), available if you own Proph + EotN.
There are several armor sets obtainable within Prophecies/EotN. I think they are ugly mostly; none are that hard, however, to obtain.
Adding the EotN heroes is imo easier than Nightfall ones.
You can add some of the relevant pets.
Only a few campaign-specific titles cannot be obtained; the rest can be farmed or bought.
I don’t mean to suggest it’s trivial or cheap or fast — it’s none of those things. However, it’s not difficult, especially if you aren’t in any rush.
Again, the easiest method is to find people who own accounts and stopped playing and are prepared to donate to help you get the points. (Although, of course, some people really enjoy GW1, as did I, and so it would be more fun to obtain these things on your own.)
