Guild Wars 2

A common request in the dungeons forums is for a way to figure out which dungeon paths a player has completed, both all-time and since last reset. Seems like a pretty simple feature, but asking for anything dungeon-related is a non-starter for the in-game development team. Perhaps our wonderful API team could come to our rescue?

Would it be possible to expose an authenticated endpoint that shows:

1) Which dungeon paths have been completed for all time? (relevant for dungeon master achievement)
2) Which dungeon paths have been completed since the last reset? (useful for making sure no paths are missed in a daily tour)

I can put together a more formal RFC if needed (let me know), but first, is this information that you guys have access to?

Both of these usecases could be covered simply providing a timestamp of the most recent completion.

Let’s just say this is not a suggestion you’re not familiarized with Anet, Mr. Hrouda probably left some feedback there on how to pursue this.

Surely there has to be some kind of leftover there that could be used or transformed into pushing this into an API, right?

Well, St. Hrouda was likely looking into adding an in-game UI for it, probably somewhere in the hero panel’s achievement section. The API guys may or may not have access to anything he left, and that’s assuming that his 2+ year old, aborted work-in-progress-from-a-former-developer patch that he made against a very outdated codebase is miraculously still around somewhere ;-)

(and that’s assuming he even got a chance to start working on it before they laid him off).

Anyway, I have confidence in the API team. They’re not your everyday red-posters ;-)

There is an open PR on this topic over here: https://github.com/arenanet/api-cdi/pull/53 – you might want to comment on this.

Thanks for the heads up! I think my request would supersede that, as providing timestamps would also provide the “did they do story mode?” information

If they have access to this information, that is

I added my RFC here: https://github.com/arenanet/api-cdi/pull/60.
