You can say I've had plenty of experience with artifacts... I went through four GTX 280's before I convinced EVGA to send me a GTX 470 instead. Mine was overheating and the 200 series was known to be designed poorly.

[Winner]

I'll try undervolting/overvolting which worked for someone, also turning up the fan, doubt it'll work though

Happy almost your 4000th post post

[Jmir 54]

I really hope this game is released during summer break

Do I spy a map of Cyrodiil in the background?

funion do you go to work or have a job or go to school or anything? i'm just curious because i can come on here literally any hour of the day when there's a new post and it's instantly rated by you and it's kind of really sad

[Bullet100]

It is his job

Possibly old for some people:

For the Hall of Monuments rewards, we will provide players the means by which they can transmute the stats/appearance of these particular items without having to purchase transmutation stones in the in-game store. The development team is still working out the exact mechanics of this, though. :)

Thank god. I was hoping this was how it would work, but I'm glad I finally found proof.

Out of curiosity, how many HoM points do y'all have? Anyone reached fifty?

[MoarFunz]

So, beta players, how is it?

[Newbienice99]

Also,

Black Widow Spider from HoM, I would assume. During the beta, you could use it in competitive PvP (there wasn't an accessible HoM in beta)

45/50

Two or three people that were active in this thread and the GW thread had 50/50 I think.

18/30.

Don't suppose anyone has any non-dedicated weapons they want to give me eh

[RawrBullet]

14 points :( if I can get a single unique weapon like destroyer it'll get me up to 16, but I can't afford it or put the time in to get one

[Franke_R!?]

Almost all of these are no-effort points, so check it if you want a guideline(ish) on how to be as lazy as possible.

[Chaos Creator]

I should say that you can get the 3 points for a pvp title by getting rank 3 in Zaishen. Theres also bonus balthazar faction going out because of the 7th anniversary so i'd recomend doing some pvp.
Whatever drops from the Zaishen chest could contribute towards other titles (wisdom, sweet tooth, alcoholic, party animal), or just get you money for things like armor/weapons.

[psychojake]

40/50. I'm not going any higher.

[mickers]

nice, id really like flameseeker title. i stopped at 30 though really dont want to grind titles :L

[Bullet100]

16/50...I will be happy if I can make it to 22 but I need moneys..

If you want even easier, grind Oppressor weapons, with Destroyer Weapons a close second. Oppressor weapons can be gathered with 10 Medals of Honor. Destroyers need a chunkload of money. Tormentor is just not worth it. Also, unless you have a lot of cash, the mini pet section will be the hardest.

[Franke_R!?]

I got the Tormented weapon (along with a shitload of other stuff) through DoA, which is really easy with a proper team.

Edited:

Which also helped funding quite some of the armors I bought.

If you get a proper team. 7-hero support works for me, but christ those patrols.

The artifacts on the ASUS logo went away after I moved my memory around
The artifacts in Win7 went away when I enabled Aero

I can't even remember my character's name. And I don't know any way to check other than reinstalling the game.

Luckily i had 30 mini-pets in the hall before all the rewards/requirements were revealed
Had spent about 25k on my collection of 44.

Think about how much gold you could have made if you knew about the minipets before the requirements.
I seem to remember 1st year whites being more than 5k on those first few days after the announcement

Okay I think I'm ready for GW2 hardware-wise, just tried out this new card... Easily hitting 60 FPS in Skyrim at the highest settings :)

[Newbienice99]

Oh cool. Mystic keys can be rewards from quests in game, or as random drops.

i thought hall of monuments was for everyone but playing eye of the north just gave you extra stuff in it

or am i wrong

i found about 5 or 6 chests throughout the beta, at one point i found a mystic key randomly and used it to open a box, inside the box was another key along with a boost and potion, and then i got 2 more keys from 2 more boxes

All I got out of one of the Mystic boxes I opened up was an Imp Tonic (which looked badass), a speed boost for 10 minutes, and a dye seed.

I only found one box but when I opened it I got another key, an item that transformed me into a bouncing blob of blue goo and a boost.
