Safe Passage in WvW Areas
I stand and dance !
Sometimes very friendly players get the idea that I have no interest in fighting them – and stop after landing a few hits on me to allow me to carry on my merry way.
It’s very nice of the players who realise you are there to complete your exploration – the only other alternative is to wait until your server changes colour (usually on a WvW season as it’s fast n furious) and complete it then.
When I see a player running around who’s upleved and wearing PvE loot gear the only thought I have is “LOOK A WALKING LOOT BAG! LET”S SEE WHAT’S INSIDE IT!!!"
But honestly Map completion should be removed from WvW or move the points outside of contestable areas (IE. put the POI at the gate of a tower, the Vistas make “overlooks” )
I actually posted this to invite discussion and to prove to a guildie that such a thing probably would not go down well as, to quote my comment to them, “you have the earn that map, like any other map area.” But I welcome the commentary above. Thanks to everyone who replied and points well made – especially the one immediately above this comment that notes that WvW should be removed from map completion and then more people could wear the world completion status star with pride. In my case the above is all that is preventing me from doing exactly that.
I think the map completion in wvw should stay. One thing I could agree with is moving poi to front gates and vista outside of walled objectives.
Vistas
NWT: south cliff face
NET: north cliff face
Garrison: the bridged isle just northeast of gari in the valley.
Hills: large cliff west
Bay: near the minotuars
SET: roof of sec wall
SWT: the arena ruin’s south cliff.
I don’t know eb that well so will leave that to another ;-)
Wow really? Safe Passage….. yeah, no.
I don’t WvW and I got my POIs in the Mists completed easy enough.
I think World Completion should stay like it is now.
I agree to this, only if they also allow WvW players to get all PvE points by just logging into Lion’s Arch.
