Introduction of myself
Hi there. Most people don’t know me, but those who know still remember my Slayer achievement guide on Dulfy.
Those who know me will most likely see me on my main “Evelyn Thirdborn” or Korny.3168 I’m also an very very active player in WvW on Far Shiverpeaks where I might have some fans. :p
I also want to use this occasion to announced following guides are currently in making:
- Weapon mastery achievement guide
- Activities achievement guide
- WvWhikers guide for following Commander
- Not really a guide but I have been keeping track of everything I do in WvW (Kills, loot, money made, karma, etc) I will post results on mid March (I will have 6 months worth of information then)
Few information about myself:
- This is my second Guild Wars 2 account (First one got perma banned due to Snowflake abuse)
- 15500+ Achievement points (Top 700 in EU)
- I passed 4000 hours played on this account so I average 10.8 hours per day (If I afk longer then 5 mintues I shutdown my game so it’s not afk time)
- On first account I had almost 1100 hours
- Owner of 4 Legendary weapons (Bifrost, Twilight, Howler and Kamohoali’i Kotaki)
- Completed 100% Map Exploration on 3 characters on this account and on 2 characters on 1st account
- Member of hardcore WvW guild on Far Shiverpeaks “Feel Lucky [PunK]”
- Completed all weapon mastery achievements
- Almost finished Giant slayer (I’m too lazy to actually do it I killed my last giant somewhere in September)
- Opps forgot to add also – I’m World Rank 1110+ in WvW
Personal information:
I’m from Croatia, I’m 25 years old, I have a lot of free time but I do work on projects every few months which supplies me with enough money to support my addictions.
Introduction of my plan
Ok so in general I often like to challenge myself with random mindless useless goals. This is one of them.
Also my account reach his 1 year birthday so wanted to do something special and I also obtained a new computer and I wanted to do map exploration so I can see Guild Wars 2 as it should be played.
My plan plain simply put is to take my level 3 engineer and without sleeping or taking any major break to complete Map Exploration from where you start to 100%.
I will use some stopwatch to time ammount needed for each map and update this post everytime I finish a map with time it took me to finish it.
Rules I applied to myself:
- I will level up my Engi as I go so I don’t plan to take 80 Book’s of knowledge and then roflstomp through maps with full exotic gear.
- I won’t take any major break except toilet and coffee refill. So no sleep, no naps and I will have nurishments due to high protest from people.
- Due to fact that WvW is different on each server I won’t count WvW maps in this time.
- I myself did explore all WvW maps (everything that has walls i.e. Keeps and Towers) I’ll finish stuff outside of walls when I fell like it since that’s mostly walking around and I won’t count within timer of Map Exploration
- I will not do a single personal story mission
Additional information
I will start this personal event on Saturday 25th January 2014 @ 10:00 am CET (Central European Time)
I expect each map will take me average of 90 minutes.
90 minutes x 25 maps = 37.5 hours
6 cities will take me 15-20 minutes each so that’s extra 2 hours.
Brining us to total of 40 hours… exact numbers will be known as we proceed.
Ok so… why am I informing you?
Well I will also make a public event out of this: I will during this time have a personal channel on my server Teamspeak with my own musicbot and I invite anybody who wants to join me there or even if they wanna join on certain maps is more then welcome to join me. As I said before I have 5000+ hours in this game and I think with confidence I can say I explored almost every aspect of this game from hardcore PvE 12+ hours dungeon grinding, Living story since start, sPvP, WvW in general, WvW with hardcore WvW guild, GvG, I also Command in WvW when I fell like it, I can talk about builds for certain proffesions, ways to obtain money I myself use (I don’t flip Tradepost so don’t bother to ask me about that) or general chit chat.
Masterful “AP Whore”
