Guild Wars 2

So I just did the level 55 or 56ish story mission where you do the pale trees vision. As I got to the end of it I saw a poi at the back, a bit of a ways behind the boss. I decided hey I’ll kill the boss then go grab it. Killed the boss, ported me out automatically.

Just wondering if you can return to this place later in the game to collect it and/or if it counts towards 100% completion or if it infact ultimately effects nothing at all.

Cheers.

You absolutely can get to it later, it’s the entrance to the Arah dungeon which you’ll need to do for the penultimate PS step. The areas you travel in the vision are actual areas in Orr.

However, in the vision you have far fewer monsters to fight on the way to said areas than you will be dealing with at level.

edit: Also a note: I don’t think you keep the pois from the vision. I certainly have had to re-explore them once traveling in Orr. So they’re just a nice little xp boost while in the vision.

You don’t need to get the PoI’s in the personal story instances to get map completion, everything can be gained out in the world. So your are not locked out in any way

One exception — I’m not sure you can get the poi in Fort Trinity where Trahearne holds meetings unless you go in via your PS or someone else’s. Not without some sort of wall running glitchy action, anyway. Or did they change that?
