Guild Wars 2 dumps WvW requirement from world exploration

Have you been stuck on the last bit of world map completion in Guild Wars 2 because the World vs. World zones weren’t cooperating? Then you should like this: The studio announced today that it will be dropping the WvW exploration requirement to get to 100% map completion.

“You’ll no longer be required to complete the WvW maps in order to receive 100% world completion in the game,” the devs posted. “The WvW maps will now behave like other maps not required for world completion, such as Heart of the Mists. All vistas, skill points, and points of interest will remain on the maps. After the WvW maps have been removed from world completion, the updated totals will go into effect for any account logging in to the game.”
