Guild Wars 2

How about giving one laurel for completing a wilderness map?

I like this idea alot..

a few questions are, with changing something like this that is unrepeatable and been there from the start is what about all those that have already got 100% completion?

And also how do you stop people rolling new alts constantly to farm complete the easy ones?

Award everyone laurels for all completed maps that they have done. It’s recorded in your character info already. This would be a nice bonus for those of us who actually bother to explore the world.

Maybe have it on an account basis, where once you complete a map on any character, you can no longer get laurels for it. Then again, you get a laurel for the daily, which takes maybe an hour (often less). Clearing a map will take a LOT of time, even those you outlevel by a lot. So it might be worth it to keep rewarding laurels, for those who want to farm the maps. If they are willing to put in a day’s worth of adventuring for one (or maybe two, if they can go that fast) laurels, why not reward them?

I’m for more ways to earn laurels, not sure its a good idea to give them for map completion

Answer to the laurel farming concern hit it woth dr after you get 1 in a day so no new map completions reward em that day.

only if we get retro-active rewards.

could works, may be one exploration map reward (or whatever name it has, those that you need for legendary) could be traded for lets say 15 laurels
