Guild Wars 2

Guys I just did the 100% world completion but I haven’t received any gift of exploration. Do I have to talk to a NPC or do something extra? My guildies said that I should have received a chest but I haven’t got anything expect for an achievement “Been There, Done That”, a mastery point and the chest for completing that specific map in my case Black Citadel but no chest with the gift of exploration. I will upload some screenshot that shows 100% map completion and the achievement I got when I hit 100%

So what am I missing?

According to the wiki:

Some players reported that they did not receive the reward when they obtained the world completion achievement. For some, revisiting the Chantry of Secrets resolved the issue. A few were able to work around the issue by revisiting every map on the required list. Another fix is to go through the Asura gate in Lion’s Arch to Black Citadel. If you encounter this issue and are not able to fix it on your own, you will have to contact ArenaNet support.

So it’s a bug, not your fault. Try the suggestions and if you come up short, contact support. Good luck!

There is also “if you haven’t opened all the chests from other maps”.

Thank you for the quick response but sadly it didn’t work =(. I’m trying to click the support button at the top of the page right next to FORUMS and it said that my connexion is not secure and nothing happens, by any chance do you know how to contact the support team? Thank you.

How do I know if I have opened all the chests from other maps? As you can see in the second picture I have no chest on my screen and no email either. Thank you

If that doesn’t work try the support panel in game. It has a button to report bugs there as well.

Just go directly to https://help.guildwars2.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

Or, in the future, you can bypass the forum ‘Support’ link bug by accessing any other Guild Wars 2 site page and using the ‘Support’ link there.

I wish they would fix this forum ‘Support’ link bug. I had it, it was either fixed temporarily or magically disappeared for a short time, and now I have it again. Sigh.

I remember when I did mine there were a couple of areas that counted toward completion but did not have a POI or anything associated with them (like bandit cave in Queensdale) – or was that changed so these don’t count/aren’t required for completion gift?

But yeah do support directly from the website

Try going Plains of Ashord, Queensdale, Metrica, Celdon and poss Wayfarer.

If you hover the mouse over the title of the map, it will give you the . There were some adjustments to those maps a couple of years+ ago which may affect your 100

It seems from the screen shots that OP has indeed done world completion. The map shows 100% and the achievement is there. He even says he got the achievement. As I read it, he’s curious about the Gift of Exploration. Correct me if I’m wrong on this.

I just finished completion on a toon this past week and, as I recall, a small “star” appeared down in the lower right hand part of the screen. Not a treasure box. You click on the star and it awards the Gift. If you didn’t see that, or didn’t click on it, perhaps CS can get you the Gift. Should be easy enough for them to see.

But to answer your basic question, no, you do not have to do anything else or talk to anyone else. Good luck.

The thing about the star instead of a chest is a good point but if that was the case it should be visible in the second screenshot.

There might also be some weird interactions resulting from the removal of WvW from world completion.

So what am I missing?

I’m probably a bit late to the party here, but I think the map complete chests don’t show up if you are in an instance. Might this have been the case?

I’ve done world completion a handful of times and often end up finishing the final poi’s inside a home instance. I seem to remember the the chest reward wouldn’t appear until after I exited the instance.
