HoM statue for Post-Prophecies Titan Quests [SPOILERS]

The Question is simple, do you think that there should be a HoM statue for completing the post Prophecies storyline quests:

"Defend Droknar's Forge"

"The Last Day Dawns"

"Defend North Kryta Province"

"Defend Denravi"

and "The Titan Source"?

These quests have always been quite difficult due to the party limitations in kryta and ascalon, and I think that completing all five of these quests should earn a statue just as completing Mallyx, the Deep, and Urgoz earns you. These titan quests are the post storyline content for prophecies and should be given the same status as similar post storyline content in Factions and Nightfall. Thanks for taking the time to look!

PS: To further the point, there is a HoM statue for the Sorrow's Furnace quest string, which also has 5 quests to complete.

Tyria is not actually saved until the titans are defeated. Not really that important but I voted yes.

Are not titan quests too easy for a statue in HoM? I did it with heroes some days ago.

I prefer to being able to solo FoW/UW and get my statues by myself, allowing me to add 4 henchies plus my heroes in FoW/UW outposts, that's another suggestion as well.

i don't really care about it
just a statue that says you killed a titan to stand in a hall that only you can access and view and since nobody shows interest in other's their HoM it's not really of importance

While I like the idea, to give a quest string a statue is probably not going to happen, what about giving Slaver's Exile a statue? I mean The Deep and Urgoz has one, UW and FoW have one, but not the Elite Dungeon of gwen

Absolutely. I'd love for more people to have a reason to do them, so I could actually find a party for them.

It's easy in the sense that yes, you can h/h the quests. However, you can do a full DoA run much more quickly in a FR ursan team. These multiple quests, at the very least, take a bit more time.

EDIT: and not to mention a statue isn't a big deal, thats why I say JUST a statue :P

yeah, most of the people don't do these quests cuz they just give xp. If put a monument for it, everyone is going to do it

That would be very nice, it'd bring players to actually do these quests that are quite important storyline-wise and forming a group to complete them would be much easier.

Of course, but ONLY if they were made repeatable.

It's a SHAME not being able to get to those areas with different spawns again.

They should have been repeatable and start as mini-missions, being teleported there after talking to Glint, and coming back to Droknar's Forge after finishing.

You can't really be "Protector/Guardian" of tyria if you didnt get rid of the remaining titants who try to destroy all towns!

Simple quests that change whole areas and feature with unique monsters than can't be found anywhere again, ever again.

Once you beat that, you'll never find another plant or ice Titan again in the whole game unless you join another player in those quests.

Won't harm to tweak them a bit to make them a bit more than what they are right now and attune them to the rest of the game.

already said "yes" in the poll, so you don't need my /sign here

Suggestions on how to further this suggestion:

1. Make the quests repeatable (been suggestion before and I fully agree).

2. Add a statue for Tombs (That is still an Elite Mission right? RIGHT? Why doesn't it have a statue?)

3. After beating either Hell's Pricipice or the Titan Quests, add random Titan spawns throughout Tyria (even in the Crystal Desert) to make it seem like a few still remain .

For what the statue should look like, I think it's obvious, it should be one of the big three legged Titans (Burning, Frost, Rotting) or it could be one of each type of Titan in Hell's Precipice (as that is the most commonly seen, 1 mission and 2 quests).

And Mitheran, you can find the plant Titans in the Domain of Fear during the first quest in "The Hunter" quest chain .

I forgot about those! But not Ice ones, eh? And thos are REALLY unique. The plant ones appear in 2 of the Titan quests. The Ice ones appear in one and one only.

I agree, and this is mostly why I signed.

Also, DNKP and LDD are particularly difficult (Defend Denravi and The Titan Source really aren't that difficult) because of the party limits that plague early-game areas. The party limit of 6 in Kryta, and only 4 of those slots are yourself and heroes, the rest are level 12 henchmen who are really just 200hp meat shields, since they really can't do anything against Titans, and Ascalon only has a party size of 4, and with Hero AI the way it is, it just makes it all the more difficult.

I know I could try to find a group with real people, but with the infinitesimal amount of people doing these quests, it would take about 2 hours to set up, and then the possibility of one person being stupid and over-aggroing or something is very high.

I was never able to do these quests back in the day, purely because finding a willing group was so hard. Since then I haven't bothered. Hopefully something like this would motivate more people to start groups and (finally) save Tyria.

HoM statue isn't important and the quests are easily soloable, are they even worth a statue?

/meh, I don't care about just another HoM statue, and would rather not see it without the quests seeing some changes...

Right now they aren't worth doing at all, they don't count for anything and rewards are nonexistant. Instead, a character finishing them is put into a disadvantage of not being able to ever enter their specific maps with titan spawns, which can be used for farming.

/notsigned. First off, they're not repeatable quests, while all the other hom statues are for repeatable quests/areas. What happens for the people who did them already? Second, they're pretty easy (I h/hd them) Thirdly, there's not even a hom statue for slavers exile, which is arguably an elite area, not a series of quests.

I won't use the argument of difficulty. The reason no one does them is simple: no decent reward. "Yay! I saved Tyria! What do I get? 50k xp? ZOMGWTF???" I'd at least suggest an end chest for Titan Source. Maybe make the difficulty higher and make the chest like Heart of the Shiverpeaks.

^ ^ which is why I argue for raising the difficulty level. It was tough when all you had were Prophecies skills level 8 henchies. You had to do it with others. Now all you need is Sway, or any heroes, really, with PvE skills and others from other chapters, and you can run through it.

They can be tweaked a bit, use separated instances, be for parties of 8, have one unique set of weapons (Titan) that drop only there, etc...

I'm still a bit disappointed on how easy where the lat 3 Titan bosses. Getting past all those charr was harder than killing them.

QFT.

Though, I think it would be more contextual if it was added as a text block in the first window, like the campaign completions are.
