Guild Wars 2

I’ve been playing since the release and I just activated my expansion.
I know my question was poorly constructed. I see that now :P

If I understand this correctly everyone who started playing GW2 prior to January 23, will receive additional character slot upon the release of HoT. Am I right?

I had LOTS of miniatures, I even completed the first set and a lot of the second, plus I had some exotics (like Priest of Balthazar)
My account was hacked a couple of months back, but I got everything back through support.
Is this a bug that can be fixed or are my minis lost forever? Anyone else with the same issue?
Also, I’m not sure if I got them back after my account got hacked or if they disappeared now, since I didn’t check them back then.

So you’re a PvE-er and you would like to get 100% Map Exploration Achievement. Great! Except that you can’t.
Whoever thought that combining WvW with a PvE-centric achievement would be fun/cool/great/exciting? It’s none of those things. In fact, its REALLY frustrating.
Why is it frustrating?
-You have to explore 3 exactly the same maps.
-It’s a problem to do that, because of other players and only one waypoint in the entire map.
-It’s very situational, a lot of Vista’s and POI’s are only accessible if your server has a hold of certain objectives.

What was the thought process behind this decision? I would really like to know because it makes no sense whatsoever. If ANet thought that in doing so, they would attract more players to WvW they were gravely mistaken. This makes WvW a pain in the *, especially for those that don’t like PvP.

So my suggestion is that WvW maps get removed from the exploration achievement, but they still retain their Vista’s, POI’s and Skillpoints for people that want rewards that come with them and it gives them a little extra to do in WvW.

Don’t get me wrong, I like WvW. But why in the hell do I have to explore those maps for 100% map exploration achievement?
