Alright here’s the deal with this star : you can see it even if the name itself isn’t visible, meaning you could get spotted behind a wall, or a door …
I’ve started regretting completing the map because of this.
It might not be a huge inconvenience in most cases, but it’s definitely a problem when you’re trying to hide from ennemies. I don’t see how this would be intended either, it shouldn’t be a burden in WvW to have a PvE achievement showing.
I know mesmers also have problems with the star only showing on their character and not on clones. I guess it was a last-minute “hey let’s give these players a little reward”, but it’s more annoying than anything at the moment (at least in WvW).
