I have completed three maps from the expansion and did not receive any rewards.
After submitting ticket I have received response from ANet which was a little funny:
“Have you completed the map on any other characters? If so what was the rewards you were suppose to get?”
I got the same problem, I got 100% world completion pre-HoT and finished Verdant Brink and Auric Basin and nothing… looks like Tangled Depths will stay 98% until this bug is fixed..
Because of that bug I’m affraid of completing the new maps not to lose potential reward. What’s more, patchnotes says that also Dry Top, Silverwastes and Southsun Cove have added map completion rewards, and yet I got none when I was there.
Prior to HoT launch I already had 100% map completion.
100 Replies on this post and Anet still no response, please, at least say us something like “we are aware”…
They have responded to anyone who has entered a ticket via the support system. They are aware of the bug, there’s no ETA for a fix, and the rewards will be retroactively applied.
There just isn’t enough time in the day for devs to post in every thread that might ‘deserve’ a response. (And there would be more such threads if they tried to respond more often, since folks would tend to expect it.)
Keep in mind that if something was easy to fix, the dev team would love to make it happen, if for no other reason than it would put an end to threads like this.

Are you suggesting that the user base should not post bug reports in the bugs forum? Interesting take on the issue.
Do I expect the devs to respond to every post in this forum? No. But when a post has this many replies, it warrants attention. This bug is a progress blocking bug for anyone trying to complete the specialization collections. It’s not just about the rewards.
One simple post acknowledging the bug could prevent dozens of individual trouble tickets being submitted. Which is a larger drain on resources?
Yup, had 100% tyria completion aswell and gained no rewards for map completion.
I guess we’ll have to wait for a response from ANet and then claim our rewards later. But I’m sure we’ll get them someday.

There’s another bug involved here too, if you complete the map and get the reward (no core maps completion) but then open the cache without unlocking your elite specialisation, you don’t the the cache credited to the collection achievement
I’ve run into the same problem with VB. I got 100% map completion, but other than the map completion bar showing up in the corner of the screen, nothing happened. Hopefully this bug gets addressed soon enough.
Same happened to me. I finished Verdant brink, no reward; two days later I finished Auric basin, no reward for that either. I’m thinking about trying with another character but i`d better wait for a fix, not to get more upset. Hope they fix it soon.
PS: I also had 100% of Tyria completed.
It’s not just verdant brink that’s not giving completion rewards, southsun, silverwastes and drytop are all not giving rewards yet have them to give….seems like the world completion folks like me are somehow locked out of map completion rewards on that character.
Gonna add my two cents, but I’m getting the same thing. Just completed Verdant Brink AND Tangled Depths and nothing. As everyone else, I have Core Tyria world completed. I’m thinking of just powering up a ranger and redoing verdant
