Guild Wars 2

I’m a mainly PvE player. However I would like to get the 100% exploration achievement, forcing me into WvW maps. Now, I will be honest and say I see no possible way to do this, unless I switch between worlds. My best bet at this point is waiting for WvW to reset, and getting a different borderland map for my realm. Does this even happen? I haven’t done enough WvW to know how this works. Will my realm possibly get a different corner of the Eternal Battlegrounds at some point? I find this really frustrating, and I’m really wishing now that I had done the WvW maps when realm transfers were free and there was no wait time.

Yes, however it isn’t random.

You should be able to find your server here. The general rules are, first in the tier is green, second is blue, and third is red. This website is also really useful for determining what the projected positions are given the current score. So you could use that to see when you could log on to complete your map.

Alternatively, you could just organize a whole host of PvE players who also need map completion and run around taking keeps and towers. A word of warning: Keeps are very difficult to take it they are defended, SMC is nearly impossible to take with just pugs if the enemy has organized defense (even if you have both gates down). A land assault on Garrison keep is perhaps the hardest in the game. (Actually, an enemy’s EB keep might be more difficult.) In those cases you may want to find your neighborhood friendly organized guild and join forces with them.

Okay, so my server is Sea of Sorrows. We’re currently winning. Do we have to start losing, or does it change when we’re matched against different servers?

If you’re SoS you should be fine.

I’m looking at SoS’s potential points and it looks like at several points in the afternoon (website server time) they were floating around 500-600 potential points (to put this in perspective the maximum potential points is 695). That’s easily most of all four maps.

Just log on during that time and it should be easy.

Okay! Thank you very much.

Your answer is simple (regarding the topic and the usual complaint), and has been said before.

WvW is part of the GW2 world. There are also points of interest in the Heart of The Mists lobby zone. Either you play the entire game, or you don’t complete the entire game.

You start at a certian color…represents your place in your tier. Green is 1st, blue is 2nd, red is 3rd.

If you are green now, you’ll be green for the rest of the week. If you win, you’ll probably stay green. If you win by a lot and it boosts your raiting enough along with the red server in the tier above looses enough raiting, you’ll swap positions. If you loose, you may only drop one place and be blue, could loose enough rating and drop to red, but if you loose by enough points, your raiting may drop you into the green position in the next tier below. Looks like that is what happened last week.

If you drop far enough, your server may steam roll the other servers during certain times of the day. Not sure how strong their oceanic is since the transfers but that would probably be a good time to do your completions.

Servers have strong times and weak times, just depends upon when the majority of your people play.

Yes, you’re fine on SoS last night we pretty much owned the whole map running at around +650 when i went for a break.

I get the feeling you didn’t read the OP. He was asking for how to get map completion, not complaining about PvE’ers having to wvw.

I get the feeling you didn’t read either of them. He was saying that you need to play the entire game to get the map of completion.

This was OP.

Answer doesn’t match question.

For the record, I wanted advice. I understand WvW is part of map completion. I never said it was unfair or complained about it. I just wanted advice on how to deal with it.

Some people tend to read the title of the topic and not read the post.

It’s become a habbit.

Do people not like to use the search feature?

That’s like saying “To kill this boss do more damage to it than it has health.”
Obviously that’s how you complete the achievement. I was asking more about the rotation of the colors and how I can make that work to my advantage and not spend 50g in repairs.

-maths-

If you die 1700+ times doing WvW map completion, you’re doing something wrong. I’ve died just over 800 times (includes pve deaths) and have been doing wvw for 2-3+ hours every night since headstart. <.<

Just cherry pick the stuff your server currently owns, on a server like SoS there are probably times where you own kitten near everything (as has already been said)

Also, your question’s already been answered, please stop feeding the troll, it’s not going to go away if you keep feeding it.
