I do not understand how the hall of monuments in Guild Wars will give rewards in Guild Wars 2. Help?

I do not understand how you earn stuff in your hall of monuments in GW so it will give rewards in GW2. I have all of the GW's and I want to know what it is that gives you rewards.



An best answer for someone who explains well, and do not just give me a link on its own.I do not understand how the hall of monuments in Guild Wars will give rewards in Guild Wars 2. Help?
The simple answer is: your achievements in GW1 will earn you points in your Hall of Monuments.



But ofcourse there's more to it than that. 'Achievements' can be titles you've earned by playing through the game (see the list of titles on the official wiki for more details there), elite armor or weapons that you have obtained, minipets that you have obtained (either on the birthday of your character, or by buying them from someone else) and companions (heroes with elite armor or rare pets) that you have acquired.

Once you have any of those, go to the Eye of the North outpost, enter the Hall of Monuments there, and dedicate the achievement to the corresponding monument (note: you need to play through the Eye of the North story first to obtain enough tapestries to unlock all monuments). The more different achievements you have, the more your monuments will fill up, and the more points you will earn for GW2.



ArenaNet have set up a dedicated website (hom.guildwars2.com) where you can check your progress, see how many points you have already earned, and what rewards you have unlocked in GW2.



Once GW2 is released, there will be a way to link your GW1 account to your GW2 account, and when you have done that, there will be a version of your GW1 Hall of Monuments in your home instance in GW2. There you can obtain the rewards that you have earned.I do not understand how the hall of monuments in Guild Wars will give rewards in Guild Wars 2. Help?

I have detailed a bit more about this in a clip on my channel, and hopefully it will answer any remaining questions. If you have further questions ask in the comments of that clip and I will try to answer, as I can't edit this answer really well.
