Guild Wars 2

For the last 5 weeks i try to get some POI and view points in the W2W in eternal battlegrounds. I need 2 to compleet my full map exploring. But every time the reset is done, Piken Square is on the red side only once we have bene put to green. Now the POI and the View are in the blue side and on a part that never is taken over because it is deep into the blue zone. Now i wunder why the servers arent switched more often and stay in color after reset. The only thing i can do is switch over to the server of the blue playing side. But then Arenanet is smart because now you have to pay a fee to do so.

So i am wundering does Arenanet do this on purpose so they will get more income. Or havent they thought about this part and take it as it is. It aint fun that i neve rcan reach those 2 POI and View and make sure i tried it many times but always get cought and killed because i have to enter an opponents base and those are always hard to reach.

So Arenanet is there anything that can be done about this??

Colour is based on your server’s rank within the tier. E.g. in tier 3 the server on 7th place is green, 8th place is blue and 9th place is red.

So that means it can be possible that piken will never get to to blue part smart thinking of arenanet then that way there will be no way to get full map completion only by changing server and therefor we have to pay a fee now.

It’s been like that since release, get a group of friends and sneak in while the enemy zerg is distracted somewhere else.

Wow.

You can argue against map completion in WvW (most would agree), but your posts are truly missing the mark by a massive margin.

Well this certainly isn’t happening on our server. Sea of Sorrows has been in 1 and 2nd and possibly 3rd over the last few weeks and has ALWAYS maintained the red position on EB, making it very hard to impossible to get world completion. Is it bugged or is something else going on?

its not on your position during the matchup, or at the end, it’s based on your total ranking position. Basically, while you might not ahve won every matchup, you didn’t lose or gain enough ranking points to change colours.

I wonder now, if reasons like this was why ArenaNet originally planned on resetting scores. So people had a greater chance of grabbing missing poi’s. For those that don’t care about map completion however, resetting the scores was a ridiculous idea.

In any event, don’t be surprised in ArenaNet changes the map completion process in WvW.

That’s INCORRECT. Blackgate was the red team for 3 weeks while SoS was green (For the three same weeks).
Then SoS dropped to third (making they red), kept their red position for another week (this one), and if the scores stay as they are, SoS will be blue next week (with SoR dropping to third).
BTW, SoS been green for many weeks before BG went to T1 except the week JQ won (Where SoS became blue for the following week). So i’m sure you are either not on SoS (and thinking you are), or just lying to troll the thread.

JQ hasn’t been red in a very, very long time. I doubt I’ll ever see world completion b/c of it. It should rotate color within each tier every week independent of rank so if your server is in the same tier for 3 weeks you will have been every color. If you move tiers the other 2 servers switch colors and you get assigned whatever is left.

Why don’t you simply go in there and capture the enemy base? That’s what’s the WvWvW is about isn’t?

There, now just make your team win/lose enough points to get to the rank you want …

Yeah, because taking a keep in EB is so easy. If I could do it by myself I would have done it ages ago. The problem is you need a lot of help/coordination to take a keep and nobody has the stomach to do it when I’m on.

The question is now does it keep this way or is arenanet doing something about it so the w2w reset will be more fair to get world completion. I dont know if arenanet is checking this forum aswell i hope they will give some information or they just let it the way it is.
