Guild Wars 2

Just curious about this since the living story maps do not count towards it will there be a new one once hot comes out?

The new maps will not effect the current Map Completion. There may be a new achievement that can be completed by accessing certain features of the new maps, but this would be separate.

The game would not force players to purchase an expansion to fulfill the requirements to create a Legendary.

I imagine the HoT areas will have HoT specific completion stuff for making the HoT based legendaries, and what we have will remain static(ish).

I’m not sure how I feel about it either. On the one hand world completion is already pretty tedious so the thought of adding a bunch of new much harder maps just to get the old gift for an old legendary makes me cringe.

But at the same time, a “World (exploration) completion” achievement that doesn’t include a large part of the world map bothers me in a CDO kinda fashion.
Sort of the inverse of my old argument that WvW maps weren’t “on the world map” and thus should not be part of an achievement for exploring the world map completely.

My hope, will be that they rename it Pact Tyria Completion, and add maybe Maguuma Completion, as long as it doesn’t have hearts -.-
Just so things make more sense, and can be expanded upon as they add more regions….like Elona….and Cantha…nudge nudge

Seeing as they already dumbed it down due to the new WvW map I can’t see them then making it harder.

Like others said, a separate title or contained completion within HoT alone makes sense.
