Q:

This is probably just me but I get extremely irritated about that WvW is part of map completion. I have no interest in playing WvW but still have to participate in this “for a lack of better word” boring way of play if I want map completion.

I would like it to at lest be possible to explore the WvW maps out of contest so that one can get it over and done with and get back to things about the game I enjoy.

The only reason to play WvW is if you want to get quick and easy karma points and cash.

WvW is in my view useless 23 out of 24 hours…. the only time it get’s slightly kitten ring is when two equally matched forces clash but that happens to seldom for it to influence my view of WvW. From being forced to play WvW for the last couple of days I don’t seem to be alone about this view regarding WvW…. seen a lot of “enemies” also back away from me even if I run around alone most of the time, they just as me are only interested in the vista or point of interest etc. and don’t want any part of the “battles” if you can call it that, most of the time it’s +10 guys attacking one single player.

To conclude a rather bad and irritated post that I will probably regret posting… I would have appreciated it if there was a way to just finish of the WvW maps for map completion without having to participate in the rest of what WvW stands for…. of course without the ability to gain karma etc. from the maps… thank you.

A:

I would like to just get my map completion without doing PvE. PvE is boring and all those stupid maps with all those stupid hearts to do stupid menial tasks.

If they want to give my my map completion for only doing WvW maps, you can have your gift for only doing PvE.

Until the, grow a pair and just get it done. Colors rotate so you don’t really have much excuse for not being able to get yours done.

I speak for my self and no one else. Only fools believe they speak for a majority.

i guess it’s their way of encouraging players to go wvw and also to show off the work they have done in there.

Did not know they rotated, if they rotate it’s fine… I can wait…. how often do they rotate?

Regarding karma it’s sick…. been playing WvW for 3 days now and gathered approximately 18.000 karma points without even trying to participate if I don’t stumble on something…. 20.000 karma points takes me 2 weeks in PvE.

I got lucky finishing the world exploration. I would check into the maps from time to time to see if my side occupied any of the places I needed. It also changed the color of my team every week or so so I could get to the points and vistas that were normally occupied from a enemy faction. My only gripe was I didn`t know how to tell which color faction I was. When I started I was green, then a week later I was blue, then when I thought I was still blue, I was red. Most of the time I didn`t run into any problems getting the points of interest or the vistas. Every once in awhile I`d run across a few people who were determined to not let get them but then I would just save it for another day. Glad I`m done with it.

Once a week, every friday evening.

This is what? The 3rd topic started about this in 3 days? If you watch the rotation, you can get it pretty easy. Especially if you can go in on Friday evening right after reset, I’ve found. Servers are all concentrated on StoneMist Castle and you can waltz around your borderland getting your stuff done. Then its just a matter of pressing “b” every once in a while to see if your server has control of StoneMist (the only castle icon, so its easy to tell). When they do, pop in, get the pois, sp and vista in the Castle. Bam. Done.
