Rotation for each week (recorded data)[edit]

You had "Week 6" listed instead of "Week 7", fixed it for you. :) - Wolf Sabian (talk) 01:32, 2 October 2023 (UTC)
That was still week 6. Dunno what to do with the two days. ~Sime 09:34, 2 October 2023 (UTC)
Ah right, the update checked them. Forgot about that. Wolf Sabian (talk) 11:36, 2 October 2023 (UTC)
I think the new addition ruined the research so far anyway, especially since Week 7 is now the same as Week 5, but ah, maybe something will turn up...eventually before they add more maps lol. ~Sime 23:11, 2 October 2023 (UTC)
Updated the list for week 8, i also took the liberty to amend the order that maps were listed in per week to display them as; SotO, Core, Expansion, and Living world, to help with anyone trying to get a sense of a pattern. Parasite 11:50, 9 October 2023 (UTC)
Is the weekly rotation bugged? None of the new maps added in the past two updates seem to come up in the rotation. Yes, I understand that there were two resets. But given how often some of the maps seem to appear, such as Lake Doric, while others have never appeared so far -- it seems rather suspicious? 77.85.136.51 16:56, 20 November 2023 (UTC)
(Reset indent) Hopefully with the introduction of Inner Nayos and all maps being ingame, we will finally see a pattern emerge so we can make a widget. ~Sime 20:54, 4 December 2023 (UTC)
I've sorted the results in the table alphabetically, and stuck some letters to indicate the groups we've observed (based on the current Nayos rotation onwards - so next week will be "F"). -Chieftain AlexUser Chieftain Alex sig.png 10:45, 10 December 2023 (UTC)
I've added headers for all main SoTO updates, it should be more visible -Petrebogdan55 00:03, 12 December 2023 (UTC)
(Reset indent) As of week 19, all existing maps have been at least once in the rotations (according to the achievements) -Petrebogdan55 21:03, 25 December 2023 (UTC)
End of the rotation ended up being a good match for the achievement panel UI order. -Chieftain AlexUser Chieftain Alex sig.png 19:29, 30 December 2023 (UTC)
Looks like the rotation is different if you don't have access to Secrets of the Obscure. Currently seeing [Domain of Vabbi, Lake Doric, Mount Maelstrom] for the week of Jan 8th 2024 77.85.136.51 16:50, 8 January 2024 (UTC)
Nah, template isn't confirmed/finished yet, I get the same maps for my account with all the expansions. -Chieftain AlexUser Chieftain Alex sig.png 18:27, 8 January 2024 (UTC)
Okay that looks like an 11 week cycle. -Chieftain AlexUser Chieftain Alex sig.png 16:23, 27 January 2024 (UTC)

SoTo Reset?[edit]

It appears like the SotO zones aren't reset weekly, i. e. they appeared to be completed, as if they only reward the bonus chests once. But I just tested and they again give those "sweet" bonus chests with Essences. And while hunting Rifts in Skywatch it eventually switched from showing as completed to correctly showing current progress. Maybe after completing the first Tier again? A display glitch it seems. Necropola (talk) 07:35, 11 September 2023 (UTC) Edit: All Soto zones have story / achievements to close rifts, so it's safe to say that rifts will be ALWAYS present here

Feedback 2024/01/16[edit]

Replace with feedback text. --93.245.128.45 16:46, 16 January 2024 (UTC)
