Petition: Hall of Monuments Changes

Thank you very much Lovitar and Saraphim for informing us of this great news. Thank you Gaile Gray and ANET for hearing our concerns and doing something about it. I am quite proud of Guild Wars and ANET now. This was my first extreme concern ever with this game. To see that it is being addressed and taken care of makes me happy and proud to be part of the Guild Wars Community. This being said I am confident in ANETS ability to hear their people and change things based on what their fans expectations are. However I realize they probably won't accomodate everyone's wants/visions they are at least trying.

Kudos Guild Wars Team ~~ THANK YOU~!~!

Greetings all

Just wanted to put my thoughts on the table. Prior to the release, i would have jumped on this thread with a /signed response, but after having played it after the release, and what i have read on the last three pages. I must say I am very pleased with HoM at the moment.

I was especially glad to hear that they were doing something about the mini-pet customisation, and would love something like a NPC that would allow you to make them for your other characters whilst keeping them customised to you (i think it was Enko that mentioned earlier on). This would stop people from filling the hall with mini-pets they don't have, and if it worked the same as the festival hats, it would free up some space for the people that are always asking for more .

As for the storage situation, I'd never turn down an extra slot, but don't think that's too important to me at the moment.

I agree with the need for armour upgrades on the heroes before you can display them, as most of the heroes in NF are required for the storyline and so are not exactly achievements in themselves. And i was able to get six of the heroes from gw:en in the preview weekend without trying too hard. Although this should then show them in there upgraded armour instead of they're starter armour (as many of you have already said).

Arranging the heroes needs working on too. I like the idea of a drop down list (like the one in the party menu) of available 'hero monuments' for each position on the monument, so you can get them where you want them easily.

As for the Armour monument, it doesn't affect me, but I can see what people are saying about wanting mixed armour sets shown. Perhaps they could have one central 'model' and have a drop down list for which piece of armour should be shown where with available pieces being from full sets (although i agree with the option of missing the head piece) that you have submitted to the monument.

I cant really comment on the Monument of honour at the moment as i don't have too many titles to show, but having drop down lists to place them would also be cool.

I haven't unlocked the Weapon monument yet so i cant really say anything about that, but i am hoping to show off my favorite weapons, rather than some expensive greens.

With regards to "The Monument of Valor", I'm pissed at it, there's no way in feck any sane person is going to buy a bunch of rather ugly weapons which cost a fortune 90% of which will be a case of buy, throw on stand, sell to merchant/salvage for a few scraps I would beg that greens that drop from dungeon chests be added to the list of displayable weapons (ofcourse really nice all greens, but I just want the option of not having to farm for the rest of my life to get a completed hall)

i feel the fact they have changed the armour statues slightly to be good, althought i have spent hours obtainining money and items to aquire tormented items, now i cant even show them :S whats the point in that......

I would also say that the pvp titles needed to show should be lowered , possibly making it noticable between a r3+ hero title , r6+ hero title and a r9+ hero title etc , this could also be used for gladiator / champion etc

*and! i feel the pet system should be modified, maybe a 'stable' system, as if i want to get more pet monuments, i would have to release my black widow spider go and cap a few pets , put em in there , and then go all the way through underworld to go n get my spider again :|

/signed and i would like to add something too. instead of just puttin up a statue of a pet in the monument of fellowship how bout lettin us pet collectors store our pets there so we dont have to get rid of our old pets to get a new pet and then we could switch between all of our cute little pets pets. in addition, i also think that the title req for armor and what not should be lowered. like mabye lvl 1 for consumables, lvl 2 for weps, and lvl 3 for armor
because its gonna be a pain in the ass to get to lvl 5 for each char i want new armor for.

/agree

I'm assuming they haven't coded properly for it because if my green weapon obtained from killing Shiro and the green I obtained from killing a god isn't good enough, then I'm one angry customer!

/signed

You've expressed clearly my wants.

/agree

I signed for the second option , "Yes, but it should not be changed to being account based, but many changes should be made.", cause there are things that really need to be changed.

Titles, heroes and armor should stay as they are.

Minipets and weapons need to be changed : minipets should be account customized, weapons to put on the "shelf" should be more (accept greens for example!)

It was said that HoM was a way to bring the powerful weapons a char had to GW2 (or get some nice thing for that), and then, now those powerful weapons have to be forgotten to be replaced by some endgame GW:EN items. So they would have been more honest in saying "No, you won't be able to put your old weapons in HoM, but we'll give you new weapons to put there."

/signed

Without reading through the pages of stuff here, I do recall Gaile saying that there will be changes to the HoM. The change I heard specifically relates to minis.

Personally I fully support turning the HoM into a War Room/Display hall. You should be able to mount whatever armor you want, stash whatever weapons you want, etc. That means more to me than grinding for a specific thing to go in there for the sake of displaying it. I have had the same few swords for my warrior since prophecies and those have more "sentimental value" then any shiny thing I get in GWEN.

Think of it like a museum. Are people going to be more impressed with seeing the armor that someone killed a god in or the crap they picked up because they spent years killing stuff that made them money?

Maybe you should have read the pages of stuff here, AND READ THE DATE THAT IT WAS POSTED.

Threadcromancy fails.

lol yea . Gaile and others at Anet has said they are making significant changes to HoM in the near future. it may not be EVERYTHING people are wanting but it will do some things differently and will be retroactive to make it easy to fix issues that people have committed to already.

So have no fear Anet has heard our plee for a change and has agreed to making said changes to make this a more enjoyable experience for everyone.

Added by RTS - Stop beating a dead horse, check the date of when they was made? Changes have been made since then, this is now invalid. If someone wants to start a new one, use the suggestions forum. Thanks
