gwamm in gw2 benefit
Divinity Sword
Titles don't show skill imo, but hopefully it will unlock some cool skins in GW2. Like weapon skins and armor, they are all the same technically but they look different.

IMO it will be similiar to the kind of extras you get when you buy a collectors/pre-order - plus a little extra
Minipets, weapons, summoning stones, a couple of quests telling some kind of ancestory.

May be the "/bonus" to get some items with special skins and always Customized.

Anyways, things put into the HoM will not give players any real advantage as has been said in the EotN interviews before it's release. I imagine we won't see direct crossover of anything, but rather something similar to /bonus. The only difference is that they have also said that each thing placed in the HoM warrants it's own reward. So if you put say your destroyer sword, and your destroyer daggers, you are supposedly going to get two different rewards, one for each.
Personally I'm still curious about their sidekick system, and how they're going to reward those that have hero armor which allows us to display our heroes. Will we able to ally ourselves with the descendant/s of the Master of Whispers? Pretty interesting ideas, lots of possibility.
We still don't know all the facts though, so it's best not to assume anything.

According to OP high PvP ranks make you a better player. Since he looks like a reasonable guy who knows what's he's talking, I'm gonna scroll down to the Services subforum and buy myself some PvP ranks. I want to be good too.

Lol. It seems the OPs delluded view of more tiltles = better player will get him very little in GW2. It is, as most other people have said, unlikely to be anything more than another Hourglass Staff, or maybe even a special summoning stone! It won't be anything that really sets players apart from new people.

You should get the titles you want to achieve for your satisfaction only., and only for GW1.
Personally I don't think GWAMM in itself will carry any extra award at all since
Seems to me like the only way to get these 'goodies' is via the HoM. You max out the HoM you max out the goodies. So to answer this we need to look at the HoM
The decorations and lighting increase for each rank in Kobd. So if you have kobd rank 4 and max your Hom, then the lighting in the hom changes to that of someone with KoBd 5 and no full HoM. Since (currently) the max kobd rank is 6, then it follows (since the Hom is the only way to carry rewards forward) That a maxed Hom+Kobd 5 gives the same value as GWAMM. There is no visible change in HoM for a full HoM+GWAMM as that would= Kobd R7, which as yet does not exist.
It's also unlikely that anet would give multiple rewards for degrees of filling the HoM. So another route they could go would be.
Full Hom=a special max reward
And then an individual reward for each tapestry filled.
Anet have enough to do for GW2 without designing and programming hundreds of perumtations of awards etc for GW2. As I said, play GW as much or as little as you wish and let GW2 worry about itself.

Then, when Guild Wars 2 arrives, each of these monuments will correspond to special features your Guild Wars 2 characters can "inherit" from your own legendary past, giving you access to exclusive titles, companions , weapons, attire, and miniatures. These inherited items are unique: there is no other way within Guild Wars 2 to acquire them. |

You're already a head above most of the playerbase in geekiness just because you're on this forum about a game while not playing the game. So, do yourselves a favor and drop the act that you're not as nerdy, not as addicted, not as prone to grind in the game because even if you quit playing the game, it's still in your mind because you're on here talking about it.

I read this posts about how lame titles are.. How HoM wont give you anything in GW2. You know I dont care.
I filled my HoM for me - Its my vanity room
I got my titles - Its because it gave me something to do
Im quite proud of my accomplishments - I had alot of fun along the way too
I dont care if GW2 gives something or not. I played this game how I wanted to play it, not for what it will give, as it has already given me endless hours of fun and the bonus of meeting some really nice players along the way.
Just play how you want to play and have fun.

My main is a GWAMM. I was maxing titles before NF even came out, and then continued on. EOTN gave more purpose to them as I can get something maybe in GW2.
Why max titles? For a sense of accomplishment. That was the original aim and still holds true and I still work on maxing titles even beyond being a GWAMM.
GWAMM may not give me uber stuff in GW2, but the work I put into it may, as will filling my HoM which I have also done.

In my case, that "sense of accomplishment" is non-existent. I mean, there still are titles that can be maxed. What's more, they're reachable even though I've transformed to a bit more casual player.
As far as GWAMM itself is concerned, maxing my 30th title was anti-climatic. No Heavenly Light (tm) shining down on me, no gods to greet me, no white doves magically appearing out of nowhere, no harps playing in the background...

No one knows what you'll get in GW2 from accomplishments in the original GW. If anyone tells you otherwise at this point, they're making up stories or believing rumors that aren't:
A.) Proven
B.) Probably True

I like doing titles.
I like looking at my lovely hall.
Saying that it would be nice to have something happen when you max GWAMM or your hall. Oh well.
See you in Gw2

You will get a special godmode skill.
Something like (old) Ursan Blessing and (old) shadow form combined.
This one is different though as you will really turn into a semi see-through bear when using the skill. You will also have permanent +10, +10 health and energy regen and permanent max adrenaline.
You will get a shape-shifter minipet that you can turn into any other minipet form whenever you feel like it.
You will get a 100mil gold starting bonus in your inventory first time you log in.
You will also have the ability to stack any amount of items.
You wont have to pay for armor, tomes or runes and merchants will give you better prices when selling your items.
Whenever you report someone the person is automatically permanently banned and you receive all that person's items and gold.
.... etc. etc.

I'm curious to know.
For now I'm not working about titles, I just play occasionally to get some fun, but won't go for any title actively.
Maybe, when GW2 will come out, if the reward is something I like or I want, I might push myself to do some grind, otherwise I won't...
I don't expect much though, not some special benefit ingame (Anet has already stated that). I think it will be like collector edition / preorder pack weapons.
Do you remember the hourglass staff and the icy blade?
At first everyone thought they were cool, but today they are just hero equipment.
I expect something like the following posters say:

and nothing for girls who are not into girl on girl action?

The OP better watch out then if they think they are gonna get anything special...

I think for the pvp title high ranks there should be some sort of decent benefit too as it separate the noob players in gw 1 who aren't able to max loads of titles and the better GW players who can. |
titles dont mean shit.
just because you have a maxed luxon or w/e title doesn't mean your good.
even the noobiest of noobs can go in and win a few rounds of Ab and collect faction.
Back to point.
I wouldn't mind seeing titles play a bit more of a role in GW2.
Maybe Survivor would help you get more xp? Although thats a waste after r3 survivor anyways, but more skill points isn't too bad.
i dunno thats all I got

Just a note, they is a visual difference for GWAMM and GWAMM + complete HoM, but it is very subtle. You get some stars (similar to celestial weapons) around the big statue. Find a r5 and a r6 with a complete halls, and you will notice them.

I don't care how little the reward is.. I will get that GWAMM title.. Dammit I will prevail !

lol great idea ^^^
I'm going for GWAMM but the thing is im not really considering it as grind, if im not havin fun then i wouldn't play. I don't care what effect it has on gw2 as to me they are different games - i will still buy gw2 though. The point of the HoM is just a nice little extra its not a requirment to be completed by the way people , which i believe some of you are forgetting.

TBH and IMO titles mean little if not nothing in PvE as it just means you spend the time to grind through the game X hours for X times. In PvP titles do matter, the pvp ones anyway, as that "usually" means that you have played the game in the PvP scene for a while and should know what you are doing. And while yes high ranked accounts have been sold and bought any of the decent players that are still around will know that you don't know jack-sh#@ in the first 5 minutes of playing with you.
As for items, it is still mixed in weather or not it transfers but tbh I think anet said somehting about it not happening. |
As for whether your titles will mean something in GW2? Who cares? At the moment, that is years away and it really comes down to...What do your titles mean to you NOW in this game? You either want GWAMM or not. Sure some of the titles mean you grinded, still means you knew enough to accomplish that well enough, and others show how much money you were able to acquire during the game, but some really do show how well you understood how your skills and team designs, tactics and strategies worked for you.
GW has stated many times over that the HoM will only unlock unique pets, heros, armours and weapons in GW2. These will in no way be "better" than what others will get just because they didnt play GW1, they will just be different. Kind of like the Preorder releases of games with other weapon skins found no where else in any game. So you just need to decide if you would like to have different things in GW2 or the same as everyone else. Either way, what else are you going to do, or spend your money on, for the next 2 years until GW2 comes out?

No one knows, if you are "pro" enough that you want to get GWAMM, then do it. I don't think Anet is gonna offer any bonuses for that in GW2, after all, it's merely a title, and if there are rewards for this title, should there be rewards for other titles as well?
acerbity
I realise that people deserve rewards for spending so much time on titles because it shows their dedication and that they do require a lot of time put into them and should therefore have a reward but this made me rage.
Arduin
Fixed. What happened to playing a game for fun, or for the sake of completion? Do people only play nowadays because it will give you something, anything in GW2?

erm... Isn't that the point of the the HoM? You display titles/minis/armour/weapons/heroes and it confers some kind of benefit in GW2...
...unless my sarcasm detectors turned off...
DreamWind
Honestly, I'm of the opinion that the more titles you have the shittier you probably are at Guild Wars because you spend more time farming titles and less time getting skill. I hope Anet rescinds their claim of reward in GW2 just so I can hear the wonderful symphony.
Arduin
I've always seen the HoM as a way to display my achievements in GW1, not a means to give me some cool stuff in GW2. But hey, that's me.

GWAMM = prestige.
As such its effect in GW2 will also be prestige. Big flashy nice things to have that no one else can get, but which have zero effect on the actual game mechanics. It would be unbalanced and unfair any other way.
As to what those things are I think there are some pretty good guesses in this thread already.
Game design 101: Keep It Simple Stupid.
It will almost certainly be the things you expect it to be. Trust me, this has been my job for the last decade.
As for me personally, I got a great full time job, a GF, mortgage and busy social life. I've still found time to max 24 titles. Just 'cause its fun ...

Yeah; bring on that "rare" gwamm mini reward in gw2 that gives no benefit whatsoever on the actual game mechanics; but will earn me a shitload of cash when and if i sell it!
take_me
It should not give you anything that can be made into money.
So it should either be armor, customized weapons, maybe customized minis, or an aura... but nothing that can be used by another account.

That + neither those armors + weaps shouldnt be better then the ones other ppl can get, so they wouldnt be more powerful just look diff

I can almost guarantee it will be /bonus weapons that are customized. Maybe a mask or something similar to that, but that will be it.
GG on getting GWAMM guys. Hope you enjoy /bonus weapons!
