People with a fully maxed HoM should get a Final fantasy style finishing move that takes three minutes to execute and makes you graphics card melt.

And does a maximum of fourty damage.

R12 zaishen or R15 of Ha are more importan than R3 zaishen or R6 HA,
No , the main problems are :
- Zaishen shouldn't be considered as a PvP title since you don't have to play PvP to get it ( Zkeys should have been customized then .. )
- even getting r6 HA or r3 Glad is clearly not the same as finishing the fissure of woe
- LDoA or some other pve titles are much longer to get than others..

But ,fact is that they made it thus everyone is able to get 40-50/50 before Gw2 is released , and you know that LDoA or getting r6 can take very lon for some people ( and especially because of situation in pvp ) . So , maybe they should have made some titles count for 2-3 points , but since there's a max of 30 rewards , the system is fair for everyone ....

Past 30, it seems to me to be strictly about ego-boosting, since you've already gotten all the tangible rewards. I'm at 31/50, and could probably make 35 easily enough (once I get my imperial phoenix leveled to 20, buy a destroyer weapon and find enough 3rd and 4th year minis to get up to 30 minis), but past that, really, why bother exerting extraordinary effort?

These rewards are exclusives to the Hall of Monuments and cannot be otained any other way.

As much as you'd like. And yes ^^

Good point, as quite a few people did forget to put their achievements in the Hall of Monuments.

As said above, this means you've linked the Hall of Monument to your account by adding an Eye of the North key.

If there is no reward for statues: minis over 50, armors over 7, weapons over 15, titles over 40, will we at least get all them displayed in HoM in GW2?
Are there any plans to implement further rewards for these statues or is the 50 point limit final?

In that case there must be a bug in the HoM calculator, because it currently shows the Accounts Linked option unlocked for any account, regardless of whether or not an Eye of the North key is actually added to it.

Not a biggie though, just thought I'd let you know.

Question, do we HAVE to sear a toon to put Eternal Defender of Ascalon in the HoM? As I'd really rather keep my pre-sear toon RIGHT where it is thanks.

I have minis I don't want to dedicate, can I get credit for those without putting them in my HoM?

I'm on 46/50 and can get to 48 easily. However, I won't be maxing 9 more titles for 50/50. I'm glad they stopped at 30 for the item rewards.

The inability of perma-pre LDoA players to get to the HoM to register their title is a HUGE issue. Lindsey had on her to do list at one time a remedy for this situation, but it just eventually died out for some reason.

Introducing a very small amount of cosmetic and fun items is bound to make them desirable and therefore expensive. ANet should have foreseen how much Pandas and Kanaxais would go for and if they didn't want that kind of extreme item in their economy then they shouldn't have included it. The fact they did include it shows that they weren't opposed to the idea that the wealthiest of players would have items worth amounts unachievable by the overwhelming majority of the playerbase.

It's very sad, I can sympathise for people who have got the title but don't want to leave that beautiful area.

I got my black moa today, so I'll hit 30 just by adding some more minis and two weapons. Am wondering if I might want to push on to get some better titles - need to decide which I like the sound of more........

Do I smell troll? Why yes that unmistakable odour is eminating from your post.

You know very full well that a fix for perma pre-toons to register their Title whilst remaining in pre was talked about over a year ago.

But hey lets chuck in about your wanting to gouge some (probably expensive) mini-pets which is really a completely different kettle of fish. It's not like you'll be unable to sell your mini's after you dedicate them.

I believe to some extent that actually helps stimulate the economy. Imagine if there were no items that were worth several hundred armbraces, a lot of power-traders would just obtain 20-100 armbraces then quit their activity. The way it currently is, the most determined ones do not stop buying and selling stuff until they reach whatever money is enough to obtain several rare miniatures, therefore circulating money and trade items for a long time.

I would imagine those that have those items never once considered the effect of dedicating them would have on GW2. They wanted them for the rarity irrespective of GW2

If you worked your butt off to get a rare mini by any means (other than hacking an account) then congratulations to you. It's nice to have goals.

And many of the super rare minis came out long before Eye of the North.

I have already dedicated my miniature Greased and Black Moa, and I am going to go ahead and also dedicate a Mad King, Gwen Doll, Yakkington, Bone Dragon, MOX, Mallyx, and Eye of Janthir, and potentially a Dhuum if I find the cash.

Try to stop me.

The dedicating isn't what's pointless - just expecting that it will do something for you in GW2. I do expect the gap between ded and unded prices to reduce, but not disappear entirely.

Aside from the jungle troll and hydra that I sold the other night for 9k less than the competition, I don't sell minis. Ask anyone that knows me or has tried to pry certain ones from my hands. I couldn't care less about what they are worth to other players in a dedicated or undedicated state.

I have some things that I also hold near and dear to my heart. Lots of people do. You don't want to leave pre-searing and I would prefer that my trinkets remain unaltered. My reasons are irrelevant. Trust me, it's definitely not because I plan to sell them.

I'm not sure if they forgot about it or decided against allowing perma-pre characters to put statues in the HoM from pre-searing, but it's not an option right now. I wasn't trying to troll. It was my smartass way of saying that you're probably gonna have to make a sacrifice if you really want that to count as a point towards your rewards. With so many other statues that you could put in, why even consider that one? If it's not even about points... my bad!

I have a perma-pre that I don't plan on moving either. You wouldn't believe how bummed I was when I started playing and someone dragged me to post. I probably spent an hour wandering around and getting owned by bugs in hopes of finding a portal or NPC that would allow me to go back.

Shayne the only way I can think of stopping is asking you to give me your Gwen Doll

But more seriously : not a lot of people really thought that the mini points would be based on the mini itself and not it's rarity (white, purple, gold, green).

I think what's more interesting is if, now that we see what exactly our HoM rewards will be, if the price difference between the rarest minis' undedicated and dedicated forms will narrow.

Yes... I suspect the value of sought-after mini's will depend almost entirely on their rarity and desirability... and very little on ded/unded.

Anybody can get a Black Moa mini (green), and a Celestial mini in February (gold), and a bunch of trashy mini's to get the full HoM rewards. So it's suddenly a lot less important whether a valuable mini is ded or unded. Sought-after mini's... will remain sought-after AND HIGHLY VALUABLE. It's like turning the clock back to before EotN, when there was no such thing as ded/unded.

So there's no gloating to be done: those people who dedicated their valuable mini's... probably just saw their value soar, right back to what they used to be worth unded.

A-net just made them rich again!

Mmm, I already have about 26 maxed and I added them all to my HOM, but for some reason the HOM reward calculator won't see this and says I only maxed 13 titles! The same goes for some hero armor and some mini pets.

Any idea how I can fix this?

If you've only just added them... I find that logging out of GW and logging back in again, usually triggers the calculator to refresh its info.

Yes, the site updates on log-out, so you will need to do that before the site updates. You only need to go as far as the character select screen, but you will need to log before you see any changes.

Eh, I don't know, I still like to dedicate my minis myself. I like the knowledge that they are all in there in that HoM, even though now I know it's "useless" as I've already got over 50 of them.

will it just need log out, or do you need to shut GW itself?
now i know why i got a few more things done in GW, but the calculator gave much more, which i did a day before

thanks for the info

btw, i love that i got that cat easily, and as i dont do much atm, i got 18 points, but certainly will go at least for the raccoon

oppressor weapons, i may get the shield for hayda, because i have no interest in a weapon of those for myself

its too bad that green minis are just as much as white ones, on the other hand, i had some minis i wanted to keep, and can sell my white ones for nice price

other than that, i like this calculator

Anet never said there was any need to dedicate very rare minis. So many assumptions were made about the HOM that they just ended up becoming incorrect facts over time.

You can always go for the mini Black Moa (green mini)... it still costs a little, but basically it's a nice little quest chain with the green mini as a reward.

Why is it that having minis you like and enjoy isn't enough? Why does there always have to be some other reward for people to assign "worth" to anything?
