Guild Wars 2

I know this is the opposite of what usually happens, but I was finishing some maps with my main, and while doing the Fireheart Rise map with her, the “Ascalon Explorer achievement” popped up because I had already explored 176 areas, but it was clear that the map wasn’t complete since I had not unblocked yet “Rebel’s Seclusion” (before you say I could have unblocked it with another character, she was the only toon who had even stepped on that area, no one of the others did it before, so it was impossible). So this probably means at least one area has been added to Ascalon making it have 177 areas, but the achievement still pops up when you reach 176.

Not exactly a bug, but I think I should leave it here for the devs to look at it. And sorry if it has been reported before.

No thats not what it is and it isn’t a bug. To get the Ascalon Explorer Achievement you need to discover 176 area’s in ascalonian maps. There is room for a lil bit of leanway so the achievement is not too much of a grind.

I thought it mean to discover “ALL” the areas? At least that’s what the achievement description says: http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Explorer.

Most zones (like Maguuma or Shiverpeaks) have the opposite problem, people is always asking where are the missing places because they often miss one or two of them. That why I thought this was some kind of design mistake (and since there’s not a forum for it, I thought this was the right place for it). But if the other zones have also more areas than needed to get the achievement, just forget what I said.
