Guild Wars 2

So how is the map reward system supposed to work? how do you earn them?

You do content in the map of choice, and whatever reward is listed is awarded to you. Some say it is every other ‘event’. Some have had other experiences with how often the reward ‘drops’.

Good luck.

That was my question, what earns the reward. I’ve been told map completion, events, etc

It’s definitely events, JPs, mini-dungeons, etc. Map completion may award one, as well. Pretty much anything you can ‘complete’. The controversy is how often. As stated, most say every other event completion.

The problem is…getting the reward can be overlooked. It just ends up in your inventory, with no bells or whistles. Perhaps, after our feedback, that might get changed. =)

Btw, just notice that the “Map reward” rotate every time you get it.

I.E : The map reward is t6 blood – You complete a event, you get a t6 blood it automatically rotate for the next reward on the list (Destroyer core for example).

I noticed that there is around of 3~4 types of reward per map, but on maps that award the new item (Shiny baubble) it seens to not work at all.

Does the map reward repeat? Ie. once you have gotten the 4 listed rewards from doing 8 events can you repeat the rewards? and if so, anyone know how many times?

Currently I have a character who does not have 100% map completion.

Would you recommend to leave for example 1 vista in each map and finish them in Heart of Thorns to get the extra rewards? Or would it not work like that?

As I do not need the gifts.

The new Map Rewards are not tied to Map Completion. You get the rewards from doing content in each map. You may, or may not, receive a mat for Map Completion, as well, though. Still, it is just one mat (as far as we know), so it’s not something you would profit greatly from by waiting.

Up to you, though…good luck.

I don’t believe I noticed getting any rewards from this system until after I achieved 100% in the zone (Brisban Wildlands). After that, about every other event I ran gave a new one of the listed rewards. I’m wondering if the item pools for each zone is meant to be static (ie Brisban will always give out items between Tiny/Small Scales, Molten Slivers, or Silver Doubloons) or if they’re meant to change (ie the next day Diessa Plateau has that item pool to give out rewards from)
