Since both are on the same maps does this mean our Cartographer Tryia will be reduced because GWEN added new parts of Tyria?

I would assume they will rename Tyria Cartographer to "Southern Tyria Cartographer", and create a Northern one too... but saying that there are new explorable areas within Southern Tyria, so I'm not sure how it will work in the end.

Yeah that's why I'm wondering... Maybe create a Post Post-Searling Tyria Cartographer title *lol*

I was thinking this as my Cartographer hasn't changed with the bigger map but maybe it changes once you add GWEN to account so people without GWEN can still get GMC
but this means people with GWEN would have to do more for it

Maybe there just isn't a cartography title for GWEN

My main character has Tyrian GMC, and the larger map has NOT nerfed the title (thank goodness). I think it very likely that there's going to be a Cartographer title for GW:EN, though it may be one of the easiest ever considering that half the game is underground.

I think that it is clear that the new expansion will have its own titles, such as protector, explorer, elite hunter, and so on.

Well this is an expansion which IS connected to Tyria and it's a first GW expension so we dunno what to expect. Now that I think of maybe they'll merge the titles from Proph and GWEN *hopes not*- there goes my Protecor and Cartographer... this is very confusing, guess the time will tell

Despite GWEN is the comeback to Tyria, it is another expansion, and as it, it should have its own title tracks. But this is IMHO

I doubt that they would take away "Tyrian GMC" with the expansion... To add a new title, however, would require a modification to the "Legendary Cartographer" title... hmmm..

I think it would be unfair to add more land mass to the existing Tyrian map title... And it just doesn't make sense for an expansion to have a whole "new" map.

I would be extremely surprised and annoyed if Anet let GW:EN effect the cartographer title for Tyria.

1) It would be unfair to those who owned GW:EM and it did effect, while those who didnt own GW:EN werent effected.

2) It wouldnt make sense if two people had the same areas, and one was on 100% and another on 50%! If GW:EN was to effect exploration, it would have to effect everyone in tyria regardless of owning the expansion or not.

But that would be unfair on those who didnt have it.

3) They are more likely to either not have an exploration title for the expansion since most of it is dungeons, or they will create a new one.

However if they do create a new exploration title, it would effect legendary cartog. Which would again be unfair on those who didnt have the expansion.

I stand by it being likely we either wont get another exploration title, or it will be named something different for that expansion.

In other words, its very unlikely it will effect Tyrian exploration.

I dont think theyll be any of the Protector/Guardian/Vanquisher/Cartographer for EotN since they are spread over Tryia which already has those titles and because most of the game is under ground, underground maps dont count for Cartographer Titles neither for Vanquisher. The new titles that come with EotN will just be the Asura, Norn, Dwarf etc. faction titles

I expect to have Protector/Guardian/Elite Hunter title because there are missions and there are elite skills, simply, no matter that the game is a whole cavern.

I see 2 likly situations...

1. Because this is an expansion and not a new Chapter, we will not have cart/protector/guardian/skill hunter/vanquish titles.

2. GW:EN will have it's own cart/protector/guardian/skill hunter/vanquish that will not effect the Tyrian titles.

I am putting my bets (and hopes) on #2. This will cause some needed changes to the "Legendary" titles. But, if you do some title counting, this will work out great. Capping ALL elite skills will get you 4 Max Skill Hunter titles + Legendary Skill Hunter. That nets you Lvl 1 of KoBD right away. (capping every elite or completing every mission is kind of a big deal the way it is)

Get ALL the Campaign specific titles and you would have 25 max titles. Giving you Lvl 5 of KoBD (once it is implemented).

I think it would work out very nicely.

EDIT: I miscounted. The total would be 24. I counted Legendary Protector as a title, it is not. Still like the #2 posibility though.

it shouldnt.

how would people get explorer for gwen if they dont own prophecies? you dont need prophecies to play GWEN. its like saying in order to get GMC for cantha you need to go to elona.

I am 100% positive there won't be an exploration thing for GW:EN, so....soo positive.
