Hi all I'm at 98.4% now and was wondering if you could cast your all seeing eye over my offering. I'm aware I still need a little in imperial palace, Jade quarry and vizunah square but not enough for the full 100%. My Tyrian title seemed so much easier. Cheers in advance. Update - just got area by pier in Imperial Palace exploreable and hopefully banished area. As arena has started got that too. so

Thanks to Livingston for help with maps and to the people who turned up to map Jade Quarry yesterday.

Hey, Been exploring a little and I now have 99.2% of Cantha explored but I cannot seem to find the last .8%. I am pretty sure that I have got every thing on Shing Jea island. I explored the boardwalk and the eredon terrace glitch. Any help is very much appreciated. Thanks!

Because you explored the glitch, it means you have only 98.7% based on the normal relative zero point. I.E. you have a lot of easy spots to be finding using some tasty alt-tabbing.

Well, jtchans, right off the bat it looks like you can clear up the piers on the north side of Jaya Bluffs a little more. Also, have you traveled to the arena on the starter island? Granted, you may not enter the arena itself, but you can map the staging area.

Also, maybe a little in the Southwest corner of Nahpui Quarter explorable. One place that is hard to tell from your screenshot is the area immediately West of Maatu Keep.

That is all I can see from your shots. Good luck!

Hi all, I just want to start out by thanking every person who has helped with this guide. I went from roughly 70% to 98.9 using this guide. 2ndly it may sasy I have just signed up, but I am a avid reader of this awesome website I am sorry that my 1st post has to be asking for help. So, here I am asking for help due to the fact that like everyone else I am stuck with my Cantha title with a Tyrian char. yes I did use all the pics, rules,guides, etc. listed here. So I thought I would post my screen shots from the mini map (U key) like It is asked to be. 1 last quick comment before you see my pics and flame me because there are some obvious places that I will say I know about. I just can't imagine they constitude 1.1%

1. Shiro banishment
2. the dreeded jade quarry that I can't get into to save my life.
3. just a note I did explore the boardwalk games area today (after the pics were taken)

I thank who ever it will be that takes their time to help me I greatly appreciate all your work in this adventure.

Many, many, many thanks to Livingston for having the patience to read my, sometimes dumb, posts and for checking my maps. Many thanks to ArenaNet too for providing us with this moneysink weekend and giving access to the Monastery. I wouldn't get 100% without it.

I'm 99,2% and I have no idea where to find the remaining 0,8%. I compared my map with one of a friend who reached Grandmaster rank but don't see differences.

If there's someone who can help me pls take a look at my map.

Congratulations to ramirez, Valeria, Frogtree, Gen Saver, warren_kn, and cataphract.

For those who wanted to thank me, simply rate my thread. That is those who used it. ^_^

If there were some way to make ensure you didn't explore more after this mission I would bet you 20 plat that it isn't. I've never examined a single persons map who had everything in Shing Jea uncovered, it's actually one of the hardest areas to fully uncover IMO. Jade Sea being the easiest.

I am at 99.5% and holding...

I cannot get this for some reason...



I have pushed, stood for seconds on every boundary around it and cannot clear it. >_<

That's probably .1% and another .2% ( hopefully ) is in Jade Quarry... I forgot behind the guards.

Part of that area has to be hit from the water below it. You do this by heading from the beach just south of the circle you marked. Go into the water and walk very slowly, stopping every few steps and facing the area you want cleared.

For the north section you need to go out and beat the Ritualist snake boss and all the other snakes on the island right above it. Once this is done, you have to scrap all the edges extremely. There is one little pixel that juts out towards this spot just a little more than everywhere else, and that one little spot is what clears it. Don't think that going straight to the spot that seems closest will do the trick either, it doesn't work like that. You have to find every nook and cranny you possibly can and hit them all until it clears.

Just a note. Running does not equate to good mapping. If you run through the areas you are mapping, you are guaranteed to miss a lot of what you need to get.
