Default Idea for Explorer Titles

Hi, this is an idea I have to make the explorer title a little easier to aquire, based on the features that have been added for the vanquisher title.

1) When hard mode is selected, add a map marker such as a small flag or something to areas that are 100% explored

2) While the explorer title is activated, add an explorer 'enchant' like box in the top left corner that shows the exploration percentage of the area you are currently in.

This will help to find out which areas still need a little more exploration, Being stuck on 97.8% isnt fun.

I'm at 99.5% of cantha explored. I know where the other 0.5% is, I just haven't done it yet - school, tests, and this lovely sunspear/lightbringer point weekend.

If you really want 100%, you have to take a screenshot of your minimap, and transpose it (that is overlay it ontop) of a maxed map. You can find these maps in the explorer's league forums here on guru.

You can also pay certain players here on guru to do the dirty work for you, and point out which areas you're missing.

Once you hit 98% on most maps, all th at is left are dozens of microscopic spots that are very hard to see unless you transpose your map. Rule number 1? Hug walls, always hug walls. 90% of these tiny spots are because you dont wallhug.

Ive already done what you suggested Dubby, its still pointless to have to do all that just to get a max title in the game, the other titles dont require it, explorer just kind of sucks when your over 95%.

Imagine not being able to tell which areas of the map you have or havnt already vanquished when going for the vanquisher title. If they can update the map to help you with that title, why not add similar features for explorer?
