Notes on this page as written[edit]

I am working on objects and this is part of that project, discussion can be found here.

The biggest change this page has is my idea of making things such as "Shiney Skritt Totems", "Dragon Totems", and such into statues. Yoe Dude 20:17, 30 January 2013 (UTC)

Statues of Gods[edit]

Why are all the statues of the gods changed? even the ones malchor did when orr was around should look like they did in gw1 right?66.223.174.57 04:54, 1 February 2013 (UTC)

My guess would be the vast passage of time has changed/destroyed most of the old monuments, and new ones were made? I do not recall seeing "Old God Statues" in my wanderings, but would be glad to investigate them if you can post location information. And the ones in this game may not be "Objects" but rather "Scenery". Yoe Dude 05:12, 1 February 2013 (UTC)
only ones that still look like the old ones are the ones in Temple of Ages, you sound like i mentioned finding one, and i meant the ones that are in risen orr were made over 200 years ago and they look like the ones that were made present day

i asked this a long time ago i feel like i didnt make myself clear, why is every statue in gw2 different than every statue in gw1, why its confusing is statues that are in risen orr, destroyed over 200 years ago are similiar to the modern day statues, but ones in gw1 have nothing in common and what made them change it in the first place, i think we were all very fond of the old statues66.223.172.172 18:28, 28 November 2013 (UTC)

Merge character and statue of character?[edit]

I'm sure there's been some thorough discussions on this topic already, and there is probably some well founded reasons for the current policy, but... why do we have separate articles for every single statue? Good examples are the Charr statues in Black Citadel; Kalla Scorchrazor, Ofela Soulcleave, Violo Raptorgaze, Boles Deathrain, Ferro the Butcher, and Nox Darkheart in the Memorial Quadrant. I think having one article for the character and one separate one for the statue is just confusing and redundant. I would find it much more tidy and easier for everyone if statues were listed as sub-chapters for these characters. It might impose problem for certain very well fleshed-out characters, but mainly I think it'd be an improvement. Thoughts? Titus User titus the third.png 16:36, 5 February 2015 (UTC)

Because Statue of Kalla Scorchrazor is an object in GW2, while Kalla Scorchrazor is a lore article. —Dr Ishmael User Dr ishmael Diablo the chicken.png 16:47, 5 February 2015 (UTC)
"The Shield of the Moon" (not the equipable shield version) is an object in GW2 you can interact with during the Personal Story step Awakening. It offers one line of text, nothing else. Do you suggest we should create a separate article on this interactive object as well - or is it more appropriate placed within the Awakening article?

Technically? Yes, we should. —Dr Ishmael User Dr ishmael Diablo the chicken.png 20:24, 5 February 2015 (UTC)
