Ok I'm in need of some help now. Currently at 99.3%. I've scraped just about every area that I'm aware of but I'm still .7% short. Sure wish I had entered the overlook back in July.

Here are my maps. My uploader makes em smaller than I made em, but hopefully they have enough resolution to solve my problem.

Luxon Side

edit: I put on my beer goggles and found some spots. I'm now up to 99.6%. The spots I found are according to Livingstons maps:
Luxon 16
Kurzick 1

Still need help on the remaining .4%. I'll keeping comparing and hopefully get it.

Damn you Nahpui exploable!!! I've been trying to get this piece explored all evening:



The arrows point out from wich direction I have tried to get it. Could someone please tell me where to wall-hug to get it? Thanks.

Evert to get to the location you pointed you need to start from the Senji's Corner. Use the South exit then follow the road. Soon enough it'll start to go down, keep heading South along the water. Once you have gone south, the area will get dark.
I guess you've already tried it but try to wall-hug very slowly, by moving your char back and forth. Sometimes the map will uncover even when you're turning your back to the wall ^^

This was actually the last spot I got to get me 100%. I had already tried to clear it 3 times previous. In order to get this spot I turned up the gamma as high as it could go and still be viewable. That way I could see exactly where all the walls were, thus I was able to hit every little nook. It worked. Try it out.

And congratulations to jjdefan, Falco, Obsidian, and Okey!!!

You get that from hugging the walls in the Jade Quarry. I know it's hard to get into but you might be able to organize a group to get in there.

I might actually try to set something up myself to organize groups to get in there and explore.

Also congratulations to eVeRt

I've just added a bit about getting into the Jade Quarry and Fort Aspenwood in my other thread in the Q&A section:

http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/s...84#post1878384

If you still need to get in, PM me your IGN (in game name), and what server you are on. I will let you know when I have enough people from your server to get in. If you PM me, but get in before we get together, please try to make it to our gathering anyway so other people can get in as well.

At 99.7%, I've finally decided to come here for help on my map. The only other area I know I may have missed is the northern part of Tahnnakai Temple explorable, but I haven't been able to get a human group for it. Here are the screenshots of my progress; please help me find that last .3%! I'm completely stumped!

Shing Jea:


Kaineng City:



Echovald Forest:



Jade Sea:



EDIT: Nevermind, I got 100%. *cheer* It turns out I was somehow missing 0.2% along the western edge of Kinya Province, and the last 0.1% was in Tahnnakai Explorable. With that in mind, feel free to use my maps for reference.

Here you go, Luis. The differences, I admit, are hard to see but the keen-eyed alt-tab user will pick them up all the same I realize I mistakingly said explorable instead of mission (Which these spots are a part of) so..oops

Ok nobody seemed to have any input on my .4%, but I know 2 areas I need but need pointers on how to get them. Detailed ones please. I know how to hug walls but I've done that and they still don't uncover. The spots are as follows according to Livingston's guide:

Mount Quinkai
Spot number 16. I can't get the black flag thing to uncover.

Spot number 19. I finally got a group and somehow got the area.

Up to 99.7% but still need help. Please anybody, can you give me pointers on uncovering the black flag thing behind the boat at Aspenwood Luxon side. Please!

Using Livingston's maps on the other thread I managed to locate several uncovred areas. I wasn't able to play a lot today so I only explored Shing jea Island, Kaineng and Echovald Forest. My %age went from 97.7 to 98.4% and there's not much to uncover ^^
I'll continue to alt-tab using your maps Livingston but I'd like to know if spots like number 15,16 and 20 in Kaineng must be reached from te undercity. I feel like the last 1.6% are in the undercity but I'm not sure. If someone can provide me info about undercity links with exploration it would be greatly appreciated, thanks :]

15 is uncovered in the south border of the Vizunah Sqaure Mission
16 is uncovered in the north border of Shenzun Tunnels
20 is found in the Zin Kun Corridor Outpost across from the statue of Balthazar, near the NPC Resongkai. You just need to hit the corner. I had trouble fininding that spot as well and nearly kicked myself after spending hours searching for it in explorable areas.

I'm pretty sure that 19 can be hit from the outpost.

As for 16, have you entered the Fort Aspenwood mission area yet?

I'm not exactly sure how to get this one as I got it naturally through exploring, so I didn't really noticed how that spot was uncovered. Though my best guess would be inside Fort Aspenwood.

I don't have time to look at them atm, but try checking the maps in this thread in the mean time:

http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/s...php?t=10032479

Also if you get 100% and the spots you needed aren't on those maps, please let me know so i can update them.

Of course I've entered Fort Aspenwood, its just that for some reason when I look at most 100% maps that black flag thing behind the boat is uncovered but when I enter I can't get close enough for it to uncover. I figured someone knew a certain spot that helped uncover it.
