They to cost 40k to make them yourself if you have most of the mats, but they can cost 100k ea for all the mats. To buy them already made from players would cost ~100k ea.

If you want I can take a look at your current HoM status and give you pointers. I've been looking pretty deep into mine and I think I found the best plan for me to get to 30. If I play everyday I could probably make it by the end of this month!
I was originally going to try to get a full set of weapons like you explained above, but I found out that would cost too much compared to other things I could do. Such as purchasing more Remnants for Hero Armor, more common mini's, or even the Prestige Armors can be more cost effective.
For example, First year common mini's cost 1-5k ea, second year 3-6k ea. You buy all the common mini's from the first two years that would get you 16 mini's for 32-88k (~56k).

Instead of buying 8 Destroyer weapons for 320k
Just my personal opinion, GW1 stuff pertaining to HoM should be allowed. It's relevant.
And winner, use Oppressor weapons, they're free, just take a bit to do the quests on different chars.

If you do the entire War In Kryta (WiK) Questline you would get 60 War Supplies (90 in HM) and 7 Medals of Honor. One Oppressor weapon costs 10 Medals of Honor... It's going to take a long time to grab the whole set. Not to mention that they aren't easy and require a nice hero setup. [I]But don't get me wrong this is a viable option if you are willing to spend this much time on it.[/I] I'm only willing to spend enough time to get one Oppressor weapon just for that single point (which also adds up to the 5 weapon set).
What's you current HoM? Link?

10x Common mini's (~5k ea)

Now this part if really up to you.

[B]Resilience[/B]
1x Elite Luxon/Kurzick
1x Vabbian/Obsidian
1x Other (Ascended Armor)
I would personally rather doing the PvE missions as they aren't that difficult, especially with the right hero builds. You can get random people to help you out or someone from a guild/forum. But if you have the money then getting the armor might be easier, although you have to be careful and remember that some of these armor sets require you to have unlocked specific locations in each expansion to purchase them via the merchant(s).
I've been stuck on 10/50 for ages because I have no clue what to do. [url]http://hom.guildwars2.com/en/#page=main&details=AEAAAAAjiCCAAAAAAgLAAAAAAAAAAAAABCAAQAAAAAA[/url]
What can I do to get 30/30 easily. What are good ways to make money now. I haven't done any of the God realms so I don't know how to do them or even how to get into a group for one.

The easiest, in my opinion, would be to:
Run Fissure of Woe for its statue
Maybe run DoA and Underworld
Run those minigames for hero armor (Easier for Nightfall than anything else)
Grind for Oppressor Weapons
Beyond that it's grind for money for pets and armor. I stopped at 21/50 because I just can't force myself to grind anymore. 7-hero support only does so well in other places.

You can do yours using several methods... It all depends on your personal opinion on what you feel like doing. Grind PvE or PvP, farm for money, etc. Well lets start off with the basics of what I think you should obtain without question then we can talk about making decisions. ;)
[B]Devotion[/B]
1x Rare Mini (~20-25k)
1x Unique Mini (~50k)
[B]Fellowship[/B]
1x Rare Pet (Black Moa is easy to get)
2x Heroes Armor (Stolen Sunspear Armor)
[B]Honor[/B]
1x PvE Title (Protector of Tryia/Elona/Cantha, etc)
1x PvP Title (Zaishen Supporter is the easiest)
[B]Resilience[/B]
1x Elite Luxon/Kurzick
1x Other (Ascended Armor)
[B]Valor[/B]
4x Destroyer
1x Oppressor (War In Kryta Quest)
[U]This will get you to 27/50! Now lets talk about making decisions to get your further. You can do a combination of any of these to get you to 30.[/U]
[B]Devotion[/B]
16x Common/uncommon Mini's (5-15k ea)
[B]Fellowship[/B]
10x Hero Armor sets (you can farm or buy the Remnants for each)
[B]Resilience[/B]
1x Vabbian
AND/OR
1x Other
[B]Valor[/B]
6x Destroyer/Oppressor weapons (Not recommended as this isn't very cost effective)
Destroyer weapons/items are definitely not 40k each anymore.
Diamonds are 9k each at the rare mat dealer, and 10 are required. I'm sure you could get a little better deal through players, but that means that it's already ~90k
10 onyx would be ~8k,
250 granite would be ~10k
So, 108k if you need to get all the materials from a trader... I miss the days when they were 40-50k.
Unless you already have mats, but that doesn't seem likely. 3 of them would be 300k+
Bullet, I still [b]HIGHLY[/b] recommend you do not do the Zaishen title. It deals a huge blow on your cash, max out Fellowship, do a few armor statues, get an Oppresor weapon, and get some minis. I saved Zaishen until after 30.

I'm [I]not[/I] buying the Z-keys I'm getting them from JQ/FA. Plus I'm not quitting now since I already have like 110/200. I can usually get 10-15 a night. Not to mention that this is one of the easiest PvP titles to get considering I absolutely hate GW1 PVP with a passion. Unless you have something that I can get much quicker than it would take me to finish off Zaishen?
If I finish of the Zaishen Title it will get me +6 points.
[editline]8th May 2012[/editline]
Every single Z-key I've obtained thus far has been free. Except my time.

Hmm, I started buying Z-keys when I got to 120/200, the PvP didn't seem worth the time. Good luck with that.
Remember that when dedicating some armor for the Hall of Monuments you [B]don't need the helmet[/B].
Also I have 2 undedicated Mini Pigs from the 2007 Canthan new year. Hope their worth something.

Whelp I already farmed/grind this far, I'm not going to quit again!
[editline]8th May 2012[/editline]
Don't get me wrong I appreciate the advice Psychojake, it's just that it's a bit late and I don't have an alternative.
JQ is fucking terrible now. Full of bots. I don't know how they get away with this.

Honestly, I want the golem mini but, I simply don't want to spend the time to get more gold/spend the time.
[QUOTE=Winner;35881742]ANet is probably too busy with GW2, as dumb as that sounds[/QUOTE]
Yeah I figured as such... Oh well I'd rather them spend their valuable time on the more important game. I'll be done with GW1 soon enough.

You're further than I currently am...and I'm going for 30/50.
[editline]8th May 2012[/editline]
So I just played three matches of JQ, first two where 0 to 10 (we won) the last one we got owned by a group of necro's who suicide bombed each outpost every minute... This is so unbalanced.
ha wish my bank was a clean as yours, im forced to carry some of my armour sets on me, how did you make your money? urgh these gw1 pics are making me nostalga so much, so torn between warrior and thief.
I have never owned a single ecto in my GW Career. :|
Last time I had ectos was years ago before the Energizing Wind nerf were you could solo/duo trap almost the entire UW magnificently in little amount of time. Ahhh the good days.
Last time I had ectos was when I got hacked by someone who then used my ritualist to farm the UW.
[b]After[/b] being hacked, even. I have my account back now though, was not all that richer than I was before, and still have 50k worth of UW teleport scrolls...
At 16 points in HoM, getting at least 22, with the amount of money I have, without spending alot of extra time.

26/30, need to buy a Tormented Sword and 2 Destroyer items, then the remaining two Granite Citadel armor sets. Then I can finish with my heroes for 30/30, and all of my HoM points will have been bought. :3[/QUOTE]
Hot damn you're rolling along quick! And I'm still jealous of that sexy shield and sword.
SOON. Soon I'll have one :)

That's actually what I based most of my plan off of. You will have to modify that guide if you already have <10 HoM Points.
