Right i've been thinking, i currently am wanting to fill my HoM, i have everythin full (well i have maximum things able to be shown on each platform thing) except i don't have anything on the destroyer weapon platform.

What i am thinking it that the weapon part of the HoM should be like the mini pet part. Currently when u show a destroyer weapon in the HoM it gets cutomized for the player, i was thinking why can't it be dedicated or sumthing along those lines becuase i dnt see the point in spending alot (it is quite a substantial amount after all weps rae purchaced) of gold and mats.

If they were dedicated they could still be sold and customized by other players but could not be added to that players HoM.

Tell me what you think

I agree, I found it a bit odd that it was customized for you. But hey, you save a whopping ten gold!

I find all of the Destroyer weapons ugly and I'd rather put some of the greens I've used in the past as I progressed my character into the weapon monument. They have more history and meaning relating to my character than the Destroyer weapons.

/Agreed. I have my HoM filled and my character has 11 destroyer weps now.. atm i use them on my heroes. I also wonder why they dont get dedicated instead of customized. They shouldn't make us able to sell them but it would be nice if you were able to use them on your whole account.

^^^^ agreed, but how long does it take to farm 110 Onyx 110 Diamonds, 2750 Granite and 1100 Iron? Other than the Iron, that is quite a task there....

I too would prefer dedicated to customized.

Dedication is much better over customizing, but it doesn't effect me much because I just put them on my heroes, and always did plan to do so even before I knew they customized the weapons.

Granite -> HM Hulking Stone Elementals. Absolutely tons of it.
Also, divide each of those numbers by 10 and THEN you've got (just above) the real numbers of mats.

By all those numbers he meant that would be the total amount of each mat for getting all the desto weps.

We are not talking about some weapons that the character will use, we are talking about a lot of weapons that you might not want to give not even to your heroes.

If it was account wide customization it would be really good to make it so u could put all the weps in all of the HoM's so you would not have to buy endless amounts of desto weps lol

hmm yeah the task of getting 110 destroyer weapons for all of my chars is daunting but gives me something to work towards in the game.

Next Concept of the now?

It makes so much sense, but was not the system implemented, i mean minis were changed, so why not (ugly) destroyer weapons?

/signed for Destroyer Weapon dedication. I know that I'm probably doing that monument as one of my last two, because I'm pretty sure that all the extra weapons will be useless to me.

/signed - makes sense. the monument should also give you a storage slot for weapons you add (as should the armor and minipet monuments). You can check the weaps in and out of the slot with any char (same with pets). Checking in or out would not affect monument appearance (it always looks full once filled).

Signed/ the current set up is broken and someone should burn in grenths pit for designing it they way it is. Someone needs a slap in the face with the ugly stick.

End of my rant

Let you store a select weapons list of items (not collector items/could you imaging the increase in value on a select few items) or make it show the items from all your different characters Account based

or as you suggest /signed again

/notsigned. Works fine as it does not. Even if it was just dedication I still wouldn't use any of that junk.

The next thing people will want is dedicated armors so they can trade them.. oh wait, there already is a suggestion like that.

What I would sign for, is ability to salvage the items to get some mats back. Not much, 10% of cost is more then enough.

Yeah all those weapons are crap, ugly too, if you are trying to fill more than one HoM on one account good luck getting the storage space.

The HoM should have been account wide from the start. Customization too for that matter. All your characters share the same storage, they should be able to share weapons too.

If this were true atleast those weapons could have some use on other characters.

They still need to dedicated and customized though, they are a gold sink, a very ugly unwanted useless gold sink, but a gold sink none the less.

/not signed due to attempted economic balance.

Make the Daedric Weapons dedicated rather than customized.

I just wish they didn't look like crap. Flaming crap...

I can almost see the development team that chose these skins:

Dev1: No matter what we give theses players, some of them are going to look at them and say they're crap.
Dev2: Well, we could let them put whatever they want to in.
Dev3: Nah; thats too easy. make em work for it.
Dev1: But they'll think its crap.
Dev3: So? Give em crap. Stick it in a bag, light it on fire and run.
Dev2: *ponders* Hmm...that might work!

I'm serious. Anybody: tell me that the sword does NOT look like a smoldering turd. Well; live and learn. I guess thats what we get for complaining too much.

You can't see me

The day they add Daedric weapons is the day I can die happy.

The HoM was handled very poorly IMO. There needs to be far more basis on account accomplishment and not single character accomplishment. I'll /Sign this with no doubt, as customization upon dedication makes no sense.

At the very least, allow us to salvage the damn things for materials.

The Valor monument seems to be designed with the express purpose of making us feel like chumps. So we can't put any weapon on there except for Destroyer weapons? Lousy, but I got over that. What remains is the problem that there's absolutely nothing I can do with Destroyer weapons after putting them on the podium, except trash them. I wouldn't be caught dead using on of those eyesores on myself or my heroes.

Why aren't we allowed to recuperate a few iron ingots or perhaps a gem or 2 from those travesties?

/signed for dedication.

At least it may have some use then. Personally, I'd rather the salvage option to get mats back. Though it's unlikely to happen. It really is just a goldsink, so I can't see them changing it.

Oh, and even if they changed it to account wide customisation, I doubt it would matter. Very few would actually seriously try for more than one hall. The titles would take you forever to work on more than one char. The rest of the hall is buyable though.

Well, I realize there's no accounting for taste, but I don't see how waving around ugly, barely shaped chunks of superheated crap is going to make anyone look good. I prefer weapons that look like weapons.

--> HoM --> trashcan.

That's how you make them look good, by obliterating them.
