Literally just got my last poi in VB and no rewards or acknowledgement of completing the VB area of HoT. I am crossing my fingers a fix is in the works as I would love to complete one of the new legendaries. Keep us updated ANET!))
I completed all 4 maps of HoT (save Dragon’s Stand, 2 explorable zones missing) and got zero reward. So it isn’t VB only, it is VB, AB, TD and DS. Besides, I’ve been told it is connected to characters already having completed Tyria 100%. Can confirm, but I am unsure, wether it also goes for those, who didn’t complete Tyria before.
I experienced the same thing 2 minutes ago. On a character that had map comlpetion on tyria, i got no reward for 100% map completion on VB. However, on when i did 100% VB completion on a new character with no tyria maps explored earlier this week, i got a VB completion reward for her.
Edit: Missing bonus rewards is on track to ship with an upcoming patch. I believe they’re doing a bunch of testing to ensure we don’t have another issue like what I’m fixing today happen again.

Same problem. working on trying to get the fix-ur-upper achievement for my engineer and one of the requirements is to 100% a magus falls map. well i got 100% on VB and nothing happened. Hope this gets fixed soon.
It would really be nice to actually get rewarded instead of punished for playing the game. Also I’ll get real mad when my cache is the last thing for dark harvest. (I have 100% on VB, AB & DS)
Two entire weeks this thread has been here. Tens of thousands of people affected…. Hundreds posted in this single thread… and still no official reply regarding map completion rewards not being awarded. The only acknowledgement regarding this issue has been either buried in Reddit, or in other official forum threads where an employee mentions something along the line of “someone else must be working on it, its not my problem.”
All we want is some kind of reply on the official forums explaining what has gone wrong and when and how it will be fixed and compensated for.
They handed out GEMS to people that were affected by the simmilar bug where map exploration was lost and players simply had to rediscover things forcing them to replay something they had already completed and earned exp for(Getting Double the exp and rewards for the trouble) . They gave GEMS to those affected as way of apology for the inconvenience of having to run around re-exploring 4 zones. Even Assuming these players had 100% exploration in all 4 of the new zones that’s still such a minor inconvenience of only a half a dozen hours at most of re-discovery.
With no official recognition of the 100% map completion rewards bug for 21 days now… what are we going to get for our 500+ hour inconvenience?…where our only option is to create a New character of the same class, level them to 80 and re-earn everything on that character.
I only have 2 characters levelled and at 100% central Tyria currently being affected by this bug.
some people have a dozen of more characters all levelled and 100% explored.
To get started, Realistically I would need:
A free Character slot Or a Free Bank tab(to swap inventory from existing characters)
158 tomes of knowledge for 2 characters,
2 makeover kits,
2 Boxes of exotic armour,
4 exotic weapons.
I could recreate the same 2 characters that are affected; artificially level them (minus 100% world completion) and then spend a few hours re-exploring the HoT zones, and get the rewards that way.Then Re-explore Central Tyria later.
**This would however also have the upside of allowing me to replay the Personal Story for those same two characters who are unable to finish all the steps because of other bugs and changes that were made since launch that permanently broke their stories.
Weeks have passed and still no answer!!! Anet you are absolutely failing the player base on this!!! It is becoming stupid that you will not respond to this forum or provide a time frame for fixing this issue.
My friend and I both day just complete VB map completion and only he got the cache but I didn’t. It says that u get it for complete Maguuma Falls map. Not what is going on.

Hello
Thank you for getting back to us.
We understand how frustrating it can be not to see an immediate fix on this kind of issues reported. However, the Development Team is working and addressing this as soon as possible. Keep in mind that this kind or issues are complex to resolved, so we cannot assure you any time frame as to when to expect it to be resolved.
What you can expect is that there will be a fix released for the Map Completion rewards on the upcoming game update.
We appreciate your patience and understanding while this is being addressed.
Regards,
GM Enigma
I contacted the support hoping they could just send me the cache, since I don’t care about the other rewards and all I wanted was to finish my collection. But, as expected, I just got the standard answer: “We know about the bug, we are working on it.”
This bug may be something that has been around since before HoT release.
I started playing again about 2 months before HoT. I had 97% map completion done and went around and finished up my map areas. I only saw completion rewards for 1 city I had missed a POI on and that’s it, the rest of the zones gave me nothing. I did receive the exploration completion when I got 100%. I thought maybe they had removed the individual rewards from each area. I went on to go through living season 2 and drytop and silverwastes and never received anything for these zones either. Now I have almost all of HoT finished just one last POI and HP in the final Boss area of DS. No rewards.
GM Awesomeness, “I can answer this one! It was addressed in another thread. There is indeed a different issue that is preventing people from getting map completion rewards. With this issue, your progress isn’t reset – you still have the map explored, you just don’t get a reward when you finish. We’re aiming to have it fixed in the next patch, so just go back to those maps next Tuesday to get your goodies. If for whatever reason the fix doesn’t make it in, we’ll keep you posted.”
Anet said look for a possible patch this Tuesday.
(Snip) we’ll keep you posted."
Sources?
It’s one thing to have Joe Blow post what is supposedly a comment about the issue, it’s a whole other thing to actually have someone who matters come to GW2 official forums and post a response to the hundreds of players here.

Just an official “hey players, we know it’s bugged, we’re working on it and rewards will be served once the fix is out. Thank you for your understanding” would be great. 3 weeks into HoT, you’d expect a fix would be here already.

No idea what you meant by “Joe Blow” but do what the previous poster said. Use dev tracker, to find your answer. Or google, just copy the sentence and do a google search and it’s right there, do your own research xD.

Well this is one of the first replays we as players have gotten. Which means its a work in progress.

my revenant got the reward, and then my mesmer who has tyria completion did not get it
just completed auric basin and no reward! but i got it on the revenant who had completed it before.
completed tangled depths for the first time on the revenant and got the reward
here’s something new: completed Dragon’s Stand with the world completed mesmer WITHOUT first completing it with any other character and NO REWARD! however, the revenant did explore it a little bit but did not complete it.
Same problem with me, finished Verdant Brink on my mesmer that does not have map completion got the rewards just fine. Today I finished Verdant Brink with my thief that has 100% map completion and nothing pops up for rewards. On another note this is also happening with the silver wastes but have yet to finish dry top for any rewards or the same bug.

Not actually, if you go back a few posts in this thread you will find another quotes from devs about the issue, as well they have answered on Reddit too, that one wasn’t the first.
If I remember correctly, the missing rewards issue is being worked on separately as they aren’t the same issue. I don’t know much more but I’d imagine we will have some sort of update on the status of that on Monday.
If you are affected then I would imagine you would also get the retroactive fix too. I wouldn’t worry about not ever getting those rewards, there’s no way we’d let that happen – I’d personally see to that.
This is taking longer to fix than I expected. I don’t care that much about the rewards, my ascended spec weapon can wait, but yeah, I thought it would be fixed faster.
I am literally disgusted by the fact that 19 days and 600 posts later Anet has still failed to even comment on this issue in their OWN FORUMS.
Relax. My guild mentioned that Anet said there is a fix coming for it this Tuesday. Lets keep our fingers crossed and hope it is true. But apparently they mentioned it on some reddit post.

You realize that they said the same thing last week? :P

Really? I’ve been following the DevTracker for 2 weeks now (I’m missing all 4 map rewards myself): Leading up to last week there was talk that they had a solution for those people who had lost their HoT map progress entirely (different issue), and that they would solve it on Monday — it got delayed to Tuesday, but happened successfully.

Once again… they DID, but not in this particular thread though. Check Dev tracker and early posts in this thread and you will find quotes and posts from them about it.
