Guild Wars 2

Currently I am only able to replay some of the chapters of the Heart of Thorns story. Is this because I haven’t fully completed the story, or are you simply not allowed to replay some chapters?

Also another question: do the HoT areas count for world completion?

Thank You!

I believe that all of the chapters are replayable, aside perhaps from the HoT prologue. They need to be as there are generally achievements associated with them that can only be gained when the chapters are replayed.

Which chapter doesn’t seem to be replaying for you?

Edit: I’m not in-game to double check, but you might only be able to replay a chapter if that character has completed it. Could someone else verify, svp?

The HoT areas do not count for the traditional world completion, no.

The only no-replayable bit I noticed is the part where you go around looking for the Itzel scouts.

Some of the Heart of Thorns story “chapters” are entirely open world segments. I don’t believe you can replay those portions of the story. You can only replay the actual instances. Considering the fact that there’s no achievements related to the open-world portions (at least none that are part of the story), they probably didn’t see a need to let you replay them.

Besides, most of those sections of the story were basically just guiding you from one section of the map to another. Basically introducing players to the new maps and showing you where you need to go for the next story sections.
