This is not a glitch!
I do not know whether this has been commented on before but i found something i would like to share.
While adding monuments to my honour stand i came across a path out of the back.

I am suggesting that maybe this could be a link to guild wars 2. THIS IS ONLY MY OWN SPECULATION.

It could be a portal to the future or something across those lines.

Any ideas?

I've attacthed some screenies so you can have a look.

Post here with any suggestions or ideas.

yeah, im guessing that when you go through the other way into gw1 from gw2 you blow up all your titles monuments, so title hunters beware =P

but yeah im pretty sure thats gonna be the entrance to it in gw2, im guessing the eotn will get smashed to pieces by drakkar and be buried amongst the mountain until you find it in gw2

i doubt that will be a gate gw2... it might serve some purpose in gw2 though.... i agree with that notion...

it could be where an evil army comes through (e.g Palawa Joko) and takes over tyria?

ANY MORE SUGGESTIONS?

What if it's a portal that links directly to Portal and Team Fortress?

Talk about a twist.

isnt also strange that it is an explorable area, meaning u can cast spells and use shouts?

You might have to fight someone there!

What if your minis attack you as part of the story line?

A mini army battle.

I always noticed that.

I think ANet just needed some cool way to suspend the KoaBD statue.

The path is just since it gives more depth to it.

...that or it's a portal back to GW1 which only enables itself when you have slain Primordus in GW2!

I'm Guild wars 2 fanatic and I agree that, that could be the entrance to the hall in Gw2... We just have to wait and see, eh? ;P

I'd say that it has indeed been noticed before. I've always thought of it as an alcove than a doorway or endless tunnel.

Thats a weird question....why wouldnt it? its your own personal Hall of Monuments. The way its made it would require an EA and not an outpost.


This is most likely just how Anet designed the Honor Statue.

The only HoH portal by GW2's time is behind the Kind of a Big Deal statue.

Players will need to sacrifice their KoaBD titles (you talk to this NPC to become "not a big deal"-ified) to destroy the statue and fit through!

Its called taming the Rainbow Pheonix, thats why you can use skills.

As for what that path is, it won't be a portal to gw2 like you suggested at first, as we will have brand new characters. The only thing I can think of that the passage can be is the enterance to the HoM in GW2, if thats not it then its just some more random things anet put in for better looks.

The "door"/"path" there is quite old, actually. It was there since day 1 of GW:EN, even of the preview, if we want to nitpick.

Well, imagine it with a glowing "portal" thingie like we have it in GW1.

Our personal HoM will probably be our personal instance and have some stuff of the past stored there.

Wasn't it just a tapestry back during the preview, before they updated it to be automatically there?

The only thing that changed of the HoM since the preview event, unless I'm mistaken, was the armor section. Before now it was just a bronze statue of 1 random male armor and 1 random female armor *not really random but 2 different professions* being one statue for each armor. I know the hero and title areas are the same, cannot say for the mini pet stop and of course destroyer weapons was unattainable during the preview event.

Idle speculation like that fails, why don't we assume on the 11th of November, 2011....(at 11:11:11) you get to fight Afflicted-Margonite Gwen?

You've not attuned your mind correctly. Behind the monument is a dark space from which your ?statue? emerges as you progress in the KoaBD title track. Obviously that has to be a door to GW2.

The OP is really going to trip when he gets to Flame Temple Corridor and see the three blocked zone gateways in the Charr temple.

Been a LONG time since I was there, and I don't remember those. Will have to check that out.

Is That Your Build[HaHa]

P/W

Its the entrance to your Guild Hall so you can take guildmembers into your HoM to brag about all your titles. You need to unlock r12 pheonix to activate it.

Your GW1 char is innocently placing his/hers favorite statue into place then BLOOOOOOOSSSSSSSSSSSSSSHEEEEEE!!!!!! a massive, underwater exsplosion effect kills your char indefinatly,as your GW1 char dies his grand-son steps out of the portal and quotes "I wonder what happened to this non-to-good looking fellow"...


I really should be doing something else >.<....what the heck.
