This kills me. I loaded up on Destroyer weapons in the HoM a long time ago. I know I can still put the Oppressor ones up, but that makes the detroyer weps feel like a waste.

I'm glad the oppressor weapons have more of a use now, I already purchased some cause they looked good (daggers and shield). Now it's time to farm the other ones!

Cheers Anet, was hoping you lot would eventually add this to HoM.

Hopefully the focus (clipping) and spear (poorly layered) are excluded? They don't deserve HoM status.

It's not the end of the world, but still a little frustrating.
MrKGado
Too bad I sold one of mine...looks like prices for these will go up a bit too since they have a new purpose in life.
LifeInfusion
Yay. Arenanet does listen.
mathiastemplar
Happy that they added them, but most of the skins look horrible tbh.
HawkofStorms
Hmmm a nice, cheap way to fill up my HoM. Nice.
Black Metal
pure awesome, i was letting my MoH's stack up and collect dust
Ninja Ninja
I hope they adjust the point system to match this new gold sink.
Shayne Hawke
I'll start bothering with those after ANet releases their spread on the HoM rewards, which should be out "very soon." Unless there's some extra trinket in it for me in GW2, I probably won't bother. Depends on how the costs of the Oppressor weapons compare to those of the Destroyer weapons.
MArcSinus
I'm actually in a deathleveling session right now which is kinda frustrating.
Anyone knows when they kick me out? I thought it was ~6 hours.

Great, now Ill have 32 weapons sitting around taking up storage space. Another storage pane anyone? Maybe another character slot or 2, or even another account?
Customization should be account wide, not for individual character. Or at least if its dedicated in the HOM it can still be used on any character or their heroes.

Thats just it, the character of my choice is my Elemantalist, which is my main, that already has all Destroyer & Tormented weaps dedicated & friggin customized. Weapons dedicated to HoM should be just just that, dedicated not customized, just like the Mini Pets.
Essence Snow
Kind of stinks they didn't make the wik quests repeatable to go along with this. Now I have no option left but to either buy or do countless bounties...to gain last 2 weaps. That stinks!
keithmcm
How extensive is this update? I have been downloading a while and it appears the entire game is being downloaded. 26k files.
Windf0rce
Pretty good news!
Even though I've been doing bounties for a while now, I'm sitting at an hilarious count of 0 Oppressor Weapons because I gave them away to friends who wanted it or just wasted all Supplies in gifts.
Anyway, off to do those bounties! It's kinda fun to team with actual people, the HoM shall bring more people to do the quests again. I'm so sick of heroes.

I approve this update
Horace Slughorn
Woot maybe now I can convince my guildies to come do Battle of LA, still have 8 more characters that need it 
Darcy
Wonderful news for me. I haven't really done more than put up three destroyer weapons so far. I think this will be more fun.

So even if your destroyer and tormented weapons are on your elementalist, you can put your oppressor weapons over any of your characters. You have no reason to be complaining about it.

Rainbow Phoenix changed to account based? Cause it is showing up that way now for me...Anyone or is a bug?
AngelWJedi
yay! finally got back on! im kinda happy we can put oppressor weapons into hom. to bad mine acc wise is fulled with destroyer and torm weapons. i so hope this isnt the only new stuff this month, and i hope they add something later to explain why we can add these weapons to hom. like a little bit of new lore or quest. and man i wish they made WiK repeatable. i only got it left on 3 girls none of which will be easy to do Wik with like it was with my rt and ele.

Apparently this is due to the fan response to the WiK poll.
Also hints about the next GW Beyond (possibly jokingly) being in Cantha

Haha, I love where the Live Team's priorities are.
Forget the Derv update. That shit can wait. Let's add Oppressor's weapons to the HoM and change the Costume Brawl.
Oh lawd. What won't they do next? *shrugs*

While this is a step in the right direction, i wish that anet would go ahead and open the HoM to any gold/green weapon so that we can place our favorites in there.

I'm still holding out for at least the Deldrimor weapons, but I'm glad to see that people are happy about the Oppressor's weapons being added!
