Guild Wars 2

Hello,

I’ve completed the world exploration for the Eternal Battlegrounds and my server’s Borderlands.

My question is, do I have to do the borderlands of the other servers as well?

Also, I’ve noticed that there isn’t a easy way to track how many more points of interest/vistas you have in mulitplayer areas like there is in pve areas. Is there a way to know if you got all the exploration done in the Eternal Battlegrounds?

Thanks.

If you’re going for the World Completion achievement, you don’t need to complete the WvW maps. However, if you’re completing them just because, you will need to complete each borderland individually.

No. The WvW is no longer needed for World Completion.

You may want to check out the Wiki on what is needed for map completion and what is not needed.

What is needed for the Explorer Achievements is also on that page. There a few more things needed for the explorer stuff.

Thanks, now I feel dumb for doing all that lmao. At least I didn’t do the other borderland areas.

Don’t feel dumb. I still complete WvW mapping on new characters even though it is no longer required. At the very least it seems worthwhile to get all the hero points. If you ever decide to actually play any WvW, it will be useful to have all the PoI. If you do all that, you might as well just do the vistas too.

In case you didn’t know, your server’s borderland will switch from week to week on a semi-random rotation. You might have, say, the red borderland this week and the blue next week. So you might want to wait until a particular borderland is assigned to your world before exploring it, since that will make it a little easier.

It’s not that dumb. It was mandatory to get all 3 borderlands + EB for a long while, but it was changed to needing none due to feedback

It would have been nice to at least get some kind of reward for exploring the eternal battlegrounds, like you do for finishing pve areas.

Indeed. Second that idea. I’d like to have an “WvW Map Completion” achievement. I worked hard getting all those vistas and poi’s.
