Q:
How to explore w/o realm hop?
A:
Midnight 12:00AM Saturdays GMT or Friday 7:00pm eastern time US.
You could wait until your server has cycled through each color, and get each of the corresponding sites. Alternatively, play a lot of WvWvW and get the exploration points after capturing the objectives you need.
It’s kind of a bummer if you left WvWvW until last to do, but there’s not a hell of a lot you can do about it now.
If you really wanted the 100% map completion without the fees, you should have picked a server that has the capability to control 100% of world vs world.
Like the other guy said, you can wait to change colors now. With the upcoming reset, expect the change colors a lot over the next few weeks.
thanks guys, last question is: when they resets?
many thanks, hope I’ll get luck to be on correct map. =D
they really need to either remove the wvw for map completion or make the pvp maps easier to explore ..or take paid transfers back away so we can swap to the servers we need to with out worry ..oh and remove repairs form pvp :| this is getting expensive

so now WvW rotated as I see 1 realm changed to another at our trio.
only my realm map remains absolutely the same!
need clear answer from GM: is it just my bad luck week or map will never rotate again and we need to pay transfer to finish exploration?
Please give me a clear answer as if I need to pay for it I will just move away ASAP.
Buy some flame rams, break door/doors and go in.

Get 15-50 of your closest friends, all near or at max level, bring flame rams and knock on the doors of all these keeps and towers. Knock really, really hard until the door breaks. The residents will get all angry and demand blood price. Defeat them. For extra credit, and the gratitude of your server, defeat the tower lords and stand in the colored ring until it goes away.
You can expect a little hostility to these acts of breaking and entering, just brush them off and carry on. There is a reason you have weapons and armor and mad skills.
Keep doing this until you get all the Points of Interests and Vistas.

I don’t have 15-50 of friends on line same time, only one of them play WvW for real and he is off last 3 weeks…
I don’t want heroically win against best realm.
all I wanted is finish silly WvW map.
Now I want clear answer from GM about rotation, or I asking too much?
I got my 100% map completion without ever switching servers (I did it while my server was suffering a guild exodus too).
Just have some patience and don’t look at it with the mentality of grinding every POI in WvW in one sitting.
Ammendment: Since you’re asking about rotations, the highest ranking server in a tier is green, second is blue, lowest is red. So you don’t rotate colours every week, or in any specific order, but they do change.
Since they reset the server ratings, the matchups will be chaos for the next few weeks, which means you won’t be stuck with the same colour or opponents if that has hitherto prevented you from getting map completion. There’s also a good chance that your server will end up in a matchup where it dominates the map so you can grab all the points.
Consider yourself, um, lucky, because you would probably have a much harder time if you tried to get map completion a month from now.
