Hey, i'm on 97.8% (close enough to 98% I though) and I can't find much else to explore. Can I have a comparison please? Couldn't use a bmp as it was 2.25mb, bigger then the limit of photobucket and imageshack I think...

Hi, my previous map got me up to 99.2%, which is great. Thanks
Some spots turned up, some turned up after awhile, and some did nothing
Just wondering if you could check this again, as I am completly stumped.

Also, how do you get to the spot between Wilderness of Bahzda, and Bokka Amphitheater? There seems to be a fair bit between the portals.


Thanks

Hug the walls!

Move at a normal speed (no running buffs) at a 45 degree angle to the wall in the direction you are going.

Completely map the Remains of Sahlahja Challenge Mission.

Clear all zones at least once.

And lastly, hug the walls!

Ho hum, so I managed to get 100% with my paragon, with hardly any trouble.

I've come to do it again with my Tyrian Ranger, who I recently got 100% of Tyria with (so am accustomed to wall scraping) and I'm stuck on 99.1%!

If anyone can throw me some pointers, I'd much appreciate it!

Hi, I've read through this thread and not seen these areas specifically mentioned, just want to be sure. Do I have to map:

1. The Dajkah Inlet Challenge Mission area
2. The Bahdok Caverns underground area
3. The Shadow Nexus Challenge Mission area

Thanks a lot, JD

Okay 98% and I think I still have MAYBE 1% in the Remains Challenge, I can't seem to get that door to ever open up. Any place else to look?

Question Need help getting last 0.2%

Hi all,

Got up to 99.8% and really stucked here. I do see one spot on my map that's still foggy and can't seem to defog it no matter how I scrap it. Anyone have any ideas how to get to this spot?



Oh btw, I tried to map all the area spots on elona and saved Dynastic Tombs for last. After exploring that area I would say it covers 1.8% of exploration (I went from 98% to 99.8). This is on a Cantha Eley btw.

edit#1: Oh, another note I want to mention: after many hours of comparing my map to the one posted here using the tabbing method, I noticed a lot of foggy spots on the 100% map that shows up much cleaner on mine. There are at least 5 spots that are like that. Yet my map is only 99.8 complete. How the hell can that be? My gut feeling's telling me there's got to be some kind of fluke on the way gw calculates this.

edit#2: The only other spots on my map that I can't uncover is the training area elona chars start at and parts of moddok crevice. Moddok can't be unfogged from town because the U map is on it's own and disconnected from the bigger world map -- Just like Dragon's Lair in tyria. All the other spots on elona I'm pretty sure I covered. It doesn't feel like I'm getting any kind of leeway on this character whatsoever. What's everyone else's feel on this?

Thanks

I am in the same boat. I too have spots that i have uncovered and not on the 100% map yet i am not 100% myself. From what i can read there is some room for error in the map or about 102% possible. So i am still on the hunt. I am at a loss. Dont know where the last little bit can be. Driving me Crazy.

One thing some of you may want to try is instead of using the difference option when comparing maps just turn off and on the map that is layered on top of yours very fast. When you do this any differences will seem to "move". Zoom in to 400% and check each area with your own eyes. You can check a whole map in less than 10 minutes this way.
For those that are stuck with one particular area, just leave it. The map has about a 0.5-1.0% leeway mostly because of the Elona character starter area so anyone not with a Elonian character will have to get more of the other areas.
To answer you Jimmy Dean any area that does not show up on the M map does not count towards the title. This means areas that will turn to black when you leave and return such as the areas you mention.
If you go to the first post of this thread Livingston has posted a map with some areas circled that most people will miss. You may want to start there to find the stuff you have missed.
Later today I will start helping people again but you MUST be at least 98.5% or I will not help. Also the higher the resolution the easier it is to compare a map.
