Weekly Rifts map rotation not existing?

[Ele Lady.6103]

Hello Anet, back in the day you added new maps into the map pool for kryptis rifts and they were usually availabe the very same week.
Now there are 11 maps that have been added as achievements, but the rotation is constatly repeating the same (old) maps every other week!
Could I humbly request you to check if ALL the maps are actually added into the map pool as there doesn't seem to be any actual fixed rotation for the maps at all.

Thanks in advance!

Are you saying you don't want to do Lake Doric for the hundredth time?

[Manasa Devi.7958]

Something sure isn't working as expected. I only do these when there's 5 AP in it, and it's been ages since any areas I haven't completed has been up.

Yeah it's weird that seemingly none of the added locations have showed up yet.

the schedule keeps getting reset whenever they add a new map to the pool

if you look closely you'll see there is a rotation, but as i mentioned above, it keep getting reset when new maps are added.

the Scheedule appears be:

• week 1: timberline falls, echovald wilds, thunderhead keep

• week 2: straits of devestation, elon riverlands, domain of istan

• week 3: sparkfly fen, tangled depths,  sandswept isles

• week 4: Bloodtide coast/mount maelstrom(alternating), domain of vabbi, lake doric

• week 5: iron marches, verdant brink, bitterfrost frontier

• week 6: cursed shore, crystal oasis, southsun cove

• week 7: frostgorge sound, seitung province, ember bay

of course we'll have to wait and see if this holds up

Looking at the talk page, it still seems wonky. It didn't start from the Timberline week when Nayos got added, like the supposed original rotation. Also I hope they fix it a bit as Lake Doric and Domain of Vabbi are paired with both Mount Maelstrom and Bloodtide Coast probably because enough maps didn't exist then.

Except Anet can't seem to decide what the start of the rotation is. As it restarted on 3 different ones from that list.

The start is Cursed Shore. It doesn't reset when they add new ones, it shifts because the current week is calculated based on the number of sets. You can calculate it by going (1+week)%(# of sets), so for example, it's currently week 14, so 15%10=5.

For week 6 for example, it went from Maelstrom to Iron Marches because they added 2 more sets, changing it from 7%6=1 to 7%8=7. For week 12, it went from Bloodtide to Straits of Devastation, because they again added 2 more sets (+ 2 extras which should replace the duplicates in Maelstrom), changing it from 13%8=5 to 13%10=3.
