== Notes ==
* Progress for the Hall of Monuments Calculator is tied only to how many statues are unlocked in the monument.
** Though there are five different types of bow for each weapon set, there is only one bow statue. e.g. Presenting an [[Oppressor's Longbow]] or [[Oppressor's Shortbow]] would unlock the singular Oppressor's Bow statue in the monument. The second bow would not be able to be added, seeing as the statue is already unlocked. (For the Oppressor's and Tormented weapon sets, the statue for the bow includes both bow models from that set).
** The case is much the same for Staves, Wands, Focus Items, and Shields that can have varied attributes. e.g. Either a [[Tormented Staff|Tormented Energy Storage Staff]] or a [[Tormented Staff|Tormented Restoration Staff]] could be used to unlock the Tormented Staff statue, and then the second staff would not be useful for Hall of Monuments purposes.

==Reward points==
By filling up this monument you can acquire up to eight points for [[Hall of Monuments Reward Calculator#Rewards|rewards for Guild Wars 2]].

==Notes==
{{anomaly|Unlike the other monuments, Valor is affected by the [[Spirit of Life]].}}

== Trivia ==
* The Axe and Sword depicted on the tapestry shred do not use skins from any of the weapons that can be displayed in this monument.
* Originally, only destroyer weapons could be displayed here. Tormented weapons were added on [[Game_updates/20081009|October 9th 2008]] and [[Oppressor's weapons]] on [[Feedback:Game_updates/20101005|October 5th 2010]].
* The 11 ''stands'' that hold the weapon statues are considered to be [[ally|allies]], i.e. they will be healed when the [[Life]] spirit dies.
