Approximately one year ago, ArenaNet introduced us to Hall of Monuments (HoM), a feature enabling us to collect various rewards for Guild Wars 2 (GW2) even before it is released – by playing the original Guild Wars!

By declaring the achievements we have accomplished in GW to the chamber known as ‘The Hall of Monuments’ we can accumulate as many as 50 points in total. The first 30 points of these reward us with certain items, pets and titles to be used in GW2. The remaining 20 points (will) award us with some extra titles in GW2, more prestigious ones, and are naturally harder to collect.
Today we present you with a complete tutorial on how to easily and quickly collect the first 30 points of the HoM, which are considered the most substantial ones. Note that the method described herein is, in our opinion, the easiest. However, if you have any suggestions or comments you’d like to offer, we’d be more than happy to hear them and incorporate them in this guide.

First things first, I really dislike people making a topic and just linking to their article. While I think it does deserve credit, I would rather read it here (on this thread!) than have to go to somewhere else. It wouldn't be too terribly hard to copy paste and have a link at the top or bottom for credit. This has nothing to do with the actual content of the guide, it's just a minor annoyance to me. Sorry! Moving on~

The guide is formatted and wonderfully written. I think it's informative and has just about all of the information needed for an experienced player. With that said, I feel like new players will have a hard time following it. Simply an opinion and coming from a moderator who sees "I'm new! Halp!" posts all day. Take it with a grain of salt. I do however, think it should be noted that Ritualists and Assassin cannot craft Granite Citadel/Grotto armor and Dervish and Paragon cannot create Imperial or Exotic armor. (See quote below)

You get 1 point for offering either one of the two Marhan Grotto or the two Granite Citadel elite armors. Each one will cost you approx. 70k. If you have created you character with either of the [F] professions (i.e. Dervish or Paragon), then you must additionally craft the Exotic Armor – that’s an extra 70k.

1 more point for either of the two Marhan Grotto or the two Granite Citadel elite armors, as in step#1. Each one will again cost you approx. 70k. If you have created you character with either of the [F] professions (i.e. Dervish or Paragon), then you must additionally craft the Imperial Armor – and that’s another 70K
On the same bulleted list. I think it could be rewritten to say:
  • You get 1 point for offering either one of the two Marhan Grotto or the two Granite Citadel elite armors. Each one will cost you approx. 70K ([F] Ritualist and Assassin and [N] Dervish and Paragon cannot craft either of these.)
  • 1 more point for offering either the Elite Kurzick armor or the Elite Luxon armor (approx. 110k gold) ([N] Dervish and Paragon cannot craft this armor.)
  • 2 points come from the Ancient armor and the Monument armor (around 50k for each).
  • 1 point from any EoTN armor.
  • If you have created you character with either of the [F] professions (i.e. Ritualist or Assassin), then you must additionally craft the Exotic Armor or Imperial Armor.

I suck at writing things right now but I hope it gets the idea across? D:

One of the better guides I have seen certainly.

That guide would not retain its wonderful formatting if it was copy pasted into guru so would you rather have crappy guru version, or nice blog version? Ill take the latter.

Nice work I think that's probably the best 0-30 guide i've ever read.
