sooo someone else mentioned the new Wayfarer's Reverie quests in GW1 going on, its basically a walk through all the cool places of the game and if you complete all 4 (Cantha, Elona, EOTN and Proph) you get a tormented weapon, which is 1 point alone. Well I was at 33 pts and didnt have one, so I was excited for that and just the experience of the quest.. I start to think well I will also get 1 more point and get 35.. I must fail at math because I made 3 armors and with the weapon got me a 5! more points... so now I am at 38 points and thinking I need to even it out again to 40.. /sigh I think the cheapest way for me would be the vabbian armor + one more armor to get 7.

what do you all think?

I would agree with that. Unless you have plenty of alts that still haven't done War in Kryta, then I'd say go for a WiK rampage and rack up those Medals of Honor, and get six Oppressor weapons for 2 points. It might even turn out cheaper than buying Vabbian armor + one another, even if you have to buy a weapon or two.

I forgot to mention I have like 12 of each ruby/sapph which brings the price down considerably on the Vabbian. I only have 1 alt that is max lvl and havent dont Proph at all on her :( so farming Oppressor weaps would kill me =P

It's worth it if you personally feel it's worth it. The items are as others said, cosmetic in nature. You can however use those skins on future items you get so if you want the skins then grab them.

I came back to the game recently myself and immediatly gained 34/50, but now I'm at 41/50 trying to get to atleast 45 for the title "Legend of the mists." Has a nice ring to it.

Many in my current alliance who are new shooting for HOM points basically got between 25-30 points in roughly a month. I think for the most part they completed each campaign in Normal and Hard, that's like 7 titles. Got the Armor and Hero Section filled out. Luxon and Kurzick Level 4 I think is easy enough to get. Glad 3 is pretty quick. Vanquishing is what I'm currently working on, that and EOTN reps, vanquishing is kinda boring but pays decently, 30mins to 1h per zone is alright I guess. Elite missions give you titles for full clears...pretty simple.

**Edit** Can't forget minipets, really easy to get those, ppl are even giving those away for free at times. I know when I logged in after about 2years, I found quite a few birthday presents across all my characters and accounts, really helped on that one.

All in all, GW1 will run probably for the next year so that gives you plenty of time to gain the HOM items and titles. A big part of the game is I have this or that skin, so if that is something your into I'd say go for it...every person is different.
