Monument to Honor/PVP titles in HOM - ridiculously high tier requirements?
acidic
I hate people who say 'o its only a preview' or 'o give it time'. I'm paying them for a final product and not on a freaking beta. So with only a week left until the actual release, it is extremely unlikely anything will change

Seems to me this is just backwards, this expnsion is geared towards PvE, but the honur titles are geared to PvP, and hardcore PvP at that, so what hardcore PvP player is goign to set out to go through a PvE game to unlock the HOM, so they can display their title in it? Not many i would think, and even if their is droves of them leaving their hardcore PvP game to attain this wont that me harmful to the PvP game?
I spend most of my time doing PvE and this big monument i was looking forward to is totally useless, I now have to grind PvP titles up to rediculous levels in order to display them,
what a wonderful development

99% of the pvp players i know also play pve, so i'm sure they wont mind going through the trouble of unlocking it.
i don't understand why u ppl bitch so much, if r12 is too high then i guess fow armor is similar, if u dont farm hardcore or trade hardcore how can u really get one? let's nerf that too??

What were you guys expecting of this Hall of Monuments? Too high title tracks are something that can be easily changed based on feedback with this beta, it's just details. It's an e-peen contest supported by ANET - show off what you got. PvE titles, PvP titles, they are just time spend farming. If you're able to get one unit towards any title track, you're able to complete it. There is the "skill", rest is "time spent". And on top of that there's a very high chance no one except you care about what titles you have.
I say **** the whole monument. I'm playing this game because I like to play it, not because I have some compelling need to complete every single title track. I play with my friends and when I'm not playing with my friends I play with heroes. What I care about is what quality the gameplay is. I don't understand this discussion. Maybe that's because I'm growing out of this MMO mentality.

Personally, I see flaws in every single monument, not just Valor (although I am very unhappy about the monument of valor, VERY).
I love how people are saying "It's going to keep people addicted to the game".
Disagreed.
First of all, you have to literraly have NO LIFE if you even want to even try and achieve max tiers of the PvP titles, what is that saying?
Second, wtf, no PvE title displays? That REALLY ticked me off. Correct me If I'm wrong but didn't a PC Gamer article say something to the effect of "Be sure and get the Kind Of A Big Deal titles, because they will be very important for GW-2 and the HoM." Unless they plan for us to max out 5 PvP titles (lmao...), I guess that article was wrong. I am going to be severly dissapointed and lose a lot of my respect to Guild Wars if they don't fix the errors in the HoM.
Current HoM=Failed

its almost like, they put together GWEN last month.... or shall i say, the edited Prophecies enough to drop everything from every campaign and HA.... and they just realized on Thursday... oh crap! that monument thing for ppl.... ahhh, no worries i can throw somethen together real fast....

and that is what we got.....

I have r6 HA rank and am disappointed that I cannot put my title into the HoM. Some people have r9, but what about all the other people who have gotten rank lower than 9? I will say this: If I can't pass over my r6 to GW2, I'm not gonna buy GW2.

Guys think about it this way; all the purpose of the HoM is to give you free stuff in GW2. If ANet made the requirements low then EVERYONE would be putting their 60% explorer titles which will mean that the 'exclusive' GW2 items will be nothing more than another Miniture Pig
Please think about the big picture.

i am halfway through gladiator 6, and i will tell you all, it takes a $H1+LOAD of time and effort. i only get 3-4 points on a GOOD day. i am already growing weary of grinding this title. gladiator 7 feels so far away. about 150 more points....1500 wins which MUST consist of 10-streaks. and considering the many times my streaks fail in middle, or worse, near the end, i am looking at WAY over 3000 battles.
....
AND GLADIATOR 9 IS 2160 MOTHERF**KING POINTS! THAT IS NEARLY TRIPLE THE AMOUNT REQUIRED FOR GLADIATOR 7 (775)! I HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO DESIRE TO GRIND THAT MUCH MORE! ANET SHAFTED ME! I WORKED SO HARD AND HAVE NOTHING TO SHOW FOR IT! IM RUINED!

Not joking, though I don't have that rank, so can't check the HoM myself, I doubt wiki has it wrong.

Wiki says you need rank 8 for the eternal hero display but down the bottom it says rank 9. Can anyone comment on this?
"Hero's Ascent:
Eternal Hero: Obtained by earning rank 8 in the Hero title track. Depicts a map of the PVP isles.
Notes:
The minimal rank for PvP titles to be shown is 3rd (except 9th for Hero)."

As a pve, I doubt I will have any pvp titles (who knows about the future).
That being said, not having access to this doesn't bother me at all.
HoM is an Unlock stuff in GW2, and I pretty sure Anet will link an PvP unlock to a PvP feature in GW2. Since I'm not big on PvP (less AvA or AB battles), missing out on PvP unlocks on GW2 is not a bad things to me.
I'm also for a special map warp that allows pvp access to HoM just like access to the various pvp warps (but blocked from pve zone's).
