Hey everyone.

In trying to prioritize myself between "finishing the plot" as it continues in "Guild Wars: Beyond", and grinding up the HoM (as I'm down to the real grindy stuff now), I was wondering if "Hearts of the North" or "Winds of Change" have, among their straight-line rewards, any really quick and convenient HoM points in them, like the oppressor weapons at the end of "War in Kryta". If I can kill two birds with one stone, that will make my decision vastly easier, otherwise, I'm down to choosing plot or grinding titles, and/or cash for weapons and armour sets (and that's a tough call ).

I'm trying really hard not to spoil the stories, so just something like "yes, you get a rare mini from winds of change" (I just pulled that out of my ass) or something, that would be really helpful!

Thanks in advance for any and all creative or constructive replies

Breaking it down:

War in Kryta + Hearts of the North:
- 2-3 Oppressor Weapons per completion.
- 6 Possible Miniatures (3 - random chance from gifts, 3 - from mobs)
- As of now, the additional hero cannot be dedicated.

Winds of Change:
- As of now, Weapons cannot be dedicated.
- 2 Possible Miniatures (random chance from lockboxes).
- Rubies/Sapphires toward Vabbian Armor (if that's important).
- As of now, the additional heroes cannot be dedicated.


Aside from rolling in some decent cash, you're hardly helping your HoM.

I did notice that the cash reward at the final turn-in from WiK was 7 plat, that was certainly nothing to sneeze at, but this summary was very helpful, thank you

Hearts of the North will get you near another oppressor weapon (8 medals of honor), and is often used to farm Ebon Vanguard reputation (if you don't have that title already/don't want to wait for snowball dominance). It can be done fairly quickly, and is probably a decent return on time investment if both another oppressor weapon and the reputation are useful to you.

WoC doesn't provide anything directly HoM-worthy and can take a long time. The rewards aren't that bad, but direct title chasing is probably more efficient if you're looking mostly for HoM.
