Map bonus reward
“By completing events, jumping puzzles, and mini-dungeons in a map, you’ll be periodically awarded with one of its associated bonuses in addition to the normal rewards.
Map bonus rewards are earned for completing events and other activities in PvE maps. Each explorable map has its own reward track.
Mechanics[edit]
- Reward tracks are account-based, and all characters on an account can contribute to them.
- Points are awarded for each event completed in a map based on participation. Full participation awards 100 points.
- Some jumping puzzles and mini-dungeons also award points. For example, Shattered Ice Ruins awards at least 100 points, and indicates that an event "succeeded".
- Note - Some jumping puzzles may not count towards event completion if a parked character opens the chest without first moving.
- Note - Opening the chest may not count towards event completion if opened just after being opened by someone else in the same instance.
- Rewards tracks are structured in tiers, with a reward at every 200 points up to 8000. Rewards are given immediately to the current character when a reward tier is reached.
- After 8000 points the reward track resets and starts giving rewards from the beginning.
- Character-based diminishing returns affect map bonus rewards; Pact Scout's Mapping Materials does not appear to be affected by diminishing returns.
- The diminishing returns reset at 00:00 UTC each day.
- Every 20th(or 13th) reward gives ten times as many of the current item.
- Reward tracks change every week at Thursday 20:00 UTC.
- There is an eight-week cycle of reward tracks.
Map bonus reward progress[edit]
- Pact Scout's Mapping Materials — grants 200 points within Central Tyria zones.
- It is possible to buy up to 6 of these from Pact Supply Network Agents daily.
- Effects that increase points gained do not affect this consumable.
