Guild Wars 2

Why does your participation drop to 0% the second you join a new instance of the same map?

You spend your time on the map doing an event train, hit an appreciable percentage and then realize that you aren’t doing the meta-event on that map. So you taxi to a different instance of the same map and lose your participation.

That seems so…unfair? You could argue, “Well just start your own taxi,” but it’s far easier to keep everyone consolidated as it (generally) means that event is more likely to succeed.

I understand changing maps entirely (going from Brink to Basin for instance) but why would you drop your previous hour’s worth of progress when you haven’t actually changed maps?

I’d ask if the map is going to be coordinated in map chat but the fact is that things change and it doesn’t always work out that way.

It’s not only problem for people switching maps, but also the random crashes lots people still keep getting. You crash/dc and there you go, you lost all your progress. Today the map even crashed itself and kicked people to a different map, lost progress. This makes the events really unfun.

also when map goes to out# now u lose all ur contribution.
