List of skill points[edit]

May I suggest having the skill point lists on their respective explorable zone articles (e.g., Queensdale) as it seems that there will be a lot of them. Konig/talk 02:00, 28 April 2012 (UTC)

I think it should stay here. If I would be on a skillpoint hunt, I would like a quick reference of where they all are. With the way the side is now structured, it is easier to find the areas you are in, if you only want to find one skill challenge. --Istar 11:36, 4 May 2012 (UTC)
We presently only have a quarter of the skill points (roughly), and the list is already fairly large. One stop reference pages aren't helpful when they're hard to read through. Konig/talk 01:44, 5 May 2012 (UTC)
Disagree that long reference pages aren't useful. 67.161.250.9 06:08, 11 June 2012 (UTC)
I would much much prefer these be on the respective area pages. That would be so much more useful to me and That is where I naturally go to find them. 76.177.229.231 03:51, 22 July 2012 (UTC)
Why can't they be on both? One list in one place for the people who want it, and also listed on the specific map pages for those that prefer it that way? That way, both groups can have their choice. (and Yes I am aware I am responding to this about half a year after the last post) 69.183.23.216 04:08, 2 February 2013 (UTC)

Waypoints[edit]

Should there be a column with waypoints instead of locations, or both? Some waypoints may be contested during an event. --11:36, 4 May 2012 (UTC)Istar

I fail to see why waypoints would even be listed. Some skill points are no where near waypoints. Konig/talk 01:44, 5 May 2012 (UTC)
I agree, the linked regions and the big upcoming interactive map should solve that for anything you want to find.--Ee 05:30, 5 May 2012 (UTC)

Named as skill challenges[edit]

Shouldn't it be listed on the page as an anomaly that even though they are named Skill Challenges, that some of them are NOT skill challenges in actuality. 69.183.23.216 04:06, 2 February 2013 (UTC)

Bot Time?[edit]

There are still about 670 pages that still reference "skill challenge" and have yet to be converted to "hero challenge", counting those marked obsolete and redirects, but after deleting duplicates from this search.

There are still about 246 pages that still reference "skill point" and have yet to be converted to "hero point", counting those marked obsolete and redirects, but after deleting duplicates from that search.

What is the best way to handle this situation? ~ 1Maven (talk) 13:19, 27 June 2015 (UTC)

Stealthy icon change by ArenaNet?[edit]

It looks to me like they may have adjusted the map icon for incomplete hero challenges.

Compare the following:

  • Old: Hero point empty.png / Hero point.png
  • New: Hero Challenge empty (map icon).png / Hero Challenge (map icon).png

Are the old icons used anywhere ingame still? (speaking plainly, the new icons aren't much better on the map and don't fit with the style of the others.) -Chieftain AlexUser Chieftain Alex sig.png 12:39, 2 October 2015 (UTC)

Not as empty and filled no. Hero point.png is but only on the completion count. Anzenketh (talk) 16:44, 4 November 2015 (UTC)

Feedback 2015/11/04[edit]

Page has not been updated to include the new icons in the HoT areas --129.10.9.73 16:17, 4 November 2015 (UTC)

Infinite icons[edit]

Found the icons for the infinite hero points. I don't know how to edit the chart so it looks nice:

  • Hero Challenge infinite empty (map icon).png
  • Hero Challenge infinite (map icon).png
  • Hero Challenge infinite empty (Heart of Thorns map icon).png
  • Hero Challenge infinite (Heart of Thorns map icon).png

The preceding unsigned comment was added by Rainspell (talkcontribs) at 06:55, 3 September 2017‎ (UTC).

The table has been modified. If anyone wants to change the wording for the map completion line, please do. I'm wondering if the blue versions will be used in Path of Fire when it is released. --Chieftain AlexUser Chieftain Alex sig.png 08:49, 3 September 2017 (UTC)
Larger versions (128 × 128px):
  • Hero Challenge infinite empty large (Heart of Thorns map icon).png
  • Hero Challenge infinite large (Heart of Thorns map icon).png

Amount of Hero Challenges in each region?[edit]

Should the amount of challenges for each region be listed? --Presac (talk) 15:41, 9 June 2019 (UTC)

If you want to add it, we could use
{{#ask: [[Has location type::Region]] [[Has hero challenges::>>0]]
| mainlabel = Region
| ?Has hero challenges = Quantity
| format = table
| class = table pve
}}

Yes, please add the total number in each region somewhere. This ties in to how many Notarized Scrolls of Heroics a player needs to purchase in order to complete all hero challenges, especially important for map completion since there are more challenges than what is needed. Also the EoD region is missing the hero challenge in Arborstone.

Example: 37 in Ascalon, 31 in Kyrta, 36 in Maguuma Jungle, 44 in Orr, 41 in Shiverpeaks, 11 in Maguuma Wastes, plus 13 more in WvW = 213 Notarized Scrolls --Chaba (talk) 19:57, 7 April 2022 (UTC)
