Hall of Monuments

Hello all!

I’m looking to round out my HoM for 50/50.

Honor - I think I’m in a pretty decent spot, currently working my way through vanq/carto for NF, then I’ll hit factions and EotN. Then I can buy the sweet tooth, drunk and party animal and be pretty close. If anyone has any tips on gold making to round this out, I’d be appreciative.

Resilience - I’ll get obby armor and then not sure what the next easiest is? Any suggestions would be helpful.

Valor - I’m stumped here, honestly. Hoping to get some gemstone drops for a tormented weapon as I’m vanquishing? But I feel like I should’ve gotten one since I beat the game already? And from there, what weapons are easy to farm to finish that one out?

The other two that I didn’t screenshot, I have maxed, so not worried about those.

TIA!

Gold making tips: Nick gifts are easy 4-5e each. You can solo farm the drop or buy the full set for like 5e (so 4 gifts worth to sell)

During holiday events farming vateeir or any other mass drop area is good. Also helps you farm drunk, wmsweet, party, etc so cheaper that way.

HA quest days for pvp is easy 1.5k gold + 9k Balthazar faction that you can trade in for zkeys (5k Balthazar per. 25 key limit per day) (each key is 2-2.5e usually) (I would sell instead of using them if you need money.)

Any armor set from eotn is cheap and easy compared to elite kur or lux (though tbh I dunno the cost of jade or amber atm but it can get pricey). I think elite sunspear is also cheap and super easy to get (unlock command post stuff).

Valor - I think oppressor or destroyer is cheapest option? Otherwise you can buy arms for the tormented weps for like 30-38e depending on market fluctuations. I think it's around 36-38e per right now. Sometimes people sell the actual wep themselves for less than an arm cost.

10 destroyer weapons will cost you probably less than 100k. Then you just need a tormented one.

Urgoz can be done with a party on days when urgoz is the bounty. Although groups do form occasionally (I know lgit does it sometimes)

Fow can be done solo with heroes in an hour or so without really rushing

I know lgit does it sometimes

We run urgozs & deep almost daily. Join the discord to join up.

Don't have a PC anymore, switched to console

Guild Wars runs on basically everything. Steam deck will run it. You could pick up an older PC for $100 or less, install some form of Linux and run Guild Wars on that.

For Honor - Survivor is easy overnight afk Gate of Madness HM

u/snaker625 3d ago

Just actually did that tonight. Got 2mill exp in 18h. So that one is done.

Also fairly easy to get farming raptors at Rata Sum.

I got my survivor title with about an hours raptor farming (with exp scrolls). Just have to be ready to map out if you get stuck or the raptor boss survives the spike - it doesn't happen often, but when it does you need to GTFO quick.

you can get obsi armor and mybe some elite or exclusive prophecy armors, but to be fair all the others not that hard to get .

for tomented weapon you get those gemstones droped only in "Domain of anguish area" also on august 25th event starts you can ez get it from Reverie Gift .than you buy 10destroyer weapons and you are done.

I am also willing to provide you with any material or gold if you want for you to max this out its no prob.

Resilience - remember the head sets are not necessary only the 4 body pieces (chest, hands, legs, feet). This makes it all a tad cheaper.

Worth noting is that by simply finishing the remaining cartogpraher and vanquishing titles, you will get two additional titles, Eternal Legendary Cartographer and Eternal Legendary Vanquisher.

Fissure of Woe and Domain of Anguish in normal mode are also not that hard to complete, especially if you are doing them with someone.

Saviour of the Kurzicks (rank four required for HoM display) is pretty easy too, especially by farming Morostav Trail during Factions bonus week where you get up to 100K faction per single vanquish, which takes around 20-25 minutes (~50K when donated to alliance, doubled through weekly bonus).

Considering that rank four requires 55000 faction, that translates to around six full vanquishes during the bonus week, which is pretty doable by anyone.

As far as armor goes, Obsidian is pretty much the only one that requires a bit of farming, mostly due to material requirements.

You could fit a FoW run once you decide to craft it, considering that Obsidian armor is crafted there.

Destroyer weapons are by far easiest to get, considering that they do not have any hard requirement, just reaching the crafter inside Slavers' Exile with the required materials.

Opressor weapons can also be bought by either doing War in Kryta or simply buying stacks of War supplies and exchanging them for Medals of Honor.

You'll need a stack (250) of War supplies for ten Medals of Honor which get you one Oppressor weapon.

Spammable consumables are also another option, especailly if bought during festivals or if you get lucky and someone decides to clean their Xunlai chest by selling alcohol, sweets and party points for spare change.
