The rotation is unlikely to be "fixed". The way the objectives for the current day/week are calculated is as follows:

1. Server sends a 16 bit seed. This seed seems to be the current day for the daily objectives. For weeklies I don't know, it's not the week at least. In any case, there are a lot of rotations given that you also only get objectives you can complete.
2. startIndex = seed * 3 + 3 for dailies, startIndex = (max(52, num_valid_objectives - 1) % seed) * 8 + 8
3. Client generates one big objective array with startIndex + num_objectives objectives. The objectives are selected by alternating between the valid group types, going through the groups per type in order, and then going through the objectives per group in order. Ie if you have selected PvE and PvP you get

pve_groups[0].objectives[0], pvp_groups[0].objectives[0], pve_groups[1].objectives[0], pvp_groups[1].objectives[0], ..., pve_groups[0].objectives[1],pvp_groups[2].objectives[1], ... 

1. Current objectives are: array[startIndex :startIndex + num_objectives]

Incoming new additions

Just a fyi, Anet has confirmed that there will be new objectives eventually coming, meaning the research will have to continue. --~Sime 16:31, 25 December 2023 (UTC)

I've tried to add a category under PvE for all expansions including Janthir Wilds, and have had to cancel every attempt because it's just not showing up. If anyone can figure out how to get the category added, I can start adding the new objectives. JuliaMinor (talk) 10:37, 30 September 2024 (UTC)
