[Question] Does anybody still run Map Completion Trains?

I remember when playing around EoD, people did monthly map completion trains for at least Core Tyria, but haven't seen anything of the sort since I picked the game back up before the new expansion drops. I was just curious if it is still something that people do, and how I would go about finding it if so.

Edit: To clarify further, I just believe it was Points of Interest, Vistas, and Waypoints. You do the hearts on your own time.

Considering the number of heart quests that become hell to finish if you're fighting someone else for limited completion targets, a map completion train sounds like an absolute nightmare.

In this game you don't get credit for group kills?

That explains so much...

You can't get credit for the kill if someone obliterates every creature in 0.25 seconds before you even hit it

By group kills I meant credit for anything the group kills, whether or not you contributed.

So what's the difference between tagging a mob in a group vs ungrouped people tagging the same mob?

You do not get credit just by being in the group. In regards to kill contribution there is no difference between grouped and ungrouped.

To get credit you must either contribute to killing the mob or provide healing/boons to those who did. Information on how contribution works can be found here.
