I just finished my Tyrian title!

I was always looking on the big map and really had no clue where too find any missing spots. (abou 1,2% missing) but then i used the zoomed out map comparing both (fast switching with irfan view). This is far better then using the big map!
I would use the zoomed out map to find the places and the zoomed in map to see if you have uncovered them.

I have now 100% and still know 3-5 places to uncover more!

The biggest improvements are the trick at the frost gate mission (consume corpse to teleport on ruriks path in the ice cave) and walking to the edge of the world at the eastern corner of talus chute

Here is my map of the frost gate pretty much complete i think.

cant find anything for teklis maybe post a 1280x1024 fullscreen zommed out map

This thread has been a great help, thanks to all that contributed. I've followed a lot of advice, and I'm finally at 99.1% but have no idea where to go to next. By switching back and forth, I can see a tiny patch in Mineral Springs, but that's really it. If anyone could look at the map I've linked to and give me a suggestion or two, I would really appreciate it. Thanks!

here is a 1280x1024 screen of the map blown up, thnx for your help

One thing everyone keeps missing is that you can necro traversal (or consume corpse) UNDER a bridge and you will be placed on top of the bridge. I have used this 'trick' on occassion to access the charr area of Northern Wall (with no timer) and Ruricks Path in Frost Gate.

For the northern wall, lure the last boss just before the cut-scene (or one of his henchies) under the overpass (so-to-speak) and kill 'im. Then traversal or consume your way to the TOP of the overpass. Make sure you run the correct way as to NOT trigger the cutscene and timer. You won't be free and clear tho cuz there are still Charr out there. If you go all the way back to the last bridge, you will trip the part of the quest that gives you an "added: " message about finding an alternate path back and will open the gate. Helpful if you need assistance with those pesky Charr.

Frost Gate is about as simple. Remember the cave with the Dryder Spiders? Inside of it is an overpass which the good Prince uses. If you kill a spider underneath and then consume/traversal... then your on top.

Hope it helps. Have fun out there.

That has never worked for me yet... = \ idk why... but it's really getting annoying because I have a feeling a large piece of what little I'm missing is that path...

Leighwyn · Oct 15, 2006, 08:53 AM // 08:53

The path isn't a requirement to achieve the title, it only makes things a bit easier (much like the arenas). So just find what else you're missing if you find yourself not able to get down there

SacredLie · Oct 17, 2006, 03:40 AM // 03:40

It's driving me crazy though! If I could just get it... lol... I know of a few other places I need but they're very small and probably count for .x%

I'm up to 97.7% now I think...

Luciora · Oct 17, 2006, 07:59 AM // 07:59

Hey SacredLie, not quite sure if you plan on running about and try to find all the spots yourself or if you would be interested in a map comparison (this thread has more info).

If you would like, post your map and I'll have a look for you. If not, then my best advice is to look for uneven edges where you will need to wall creep

Also note that there are a few places that you can walk up into the mountains which uncovers a bit more than just walking along the edge of the mountain

teklis · Oct 17, 2006, 07:47 PM // 19:47

Thnx every one...the last little piece i was missing was in tombs of the prime evil kings (just found it by chance) thanx for every ones input

Mad5cout · Oct 18, 2006, 04:16 AM // 04:16

Okay so I have looked over these maps time and time again. I have gone through the hiding mountain paths and even use the frostgate consume corpse trick. Here's my problem: I didn't do any PvP before they came out with the boat and the isles and all that. I have come to the conclusion that it is near impossible if not completely impossible to complete the map unless you did at least some PvP when the arenas were in the towns.

This is very irritating as it creates an unequitable situation for the titles and for the obvious reason that THESE AREN'T PART OF THE MAP ANYMORE! Why are they figuring in to the percentages at all? BOOO!

cyber88 · Oct 18, 2006, 07:55 AM // 07:55

Hello everyone, I am a noobie to this forum. Is anyone out there still helping to analyse maps for Grandmaster Cartography? If there is a kind soul, can that person also tell me how to upload the pic of the map to the forum but it shows a link instead. thanks

p.s. I am at 94.8%

SacredLie · Oct 19, 2006, 07:35 PM // 19:35

Luciora, here is my map if you (or anyone else

) would like to look at it.

http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a20...ldwars/map.jpg

I know I'm missing (still) a little behind the fort in THK, a smidge in Ring of Fire, and Rurik's path. I have no idea what else I could be missing though...

lennymon · Oct 23, 2006, 04:09 PM // 16:09

Cyber, you hit the go advanced button there you can attach the pic to the post

SacredLie, my eyeball says hit northern part of dunes bonus, grenths by the entrance to sorrows, northern talus by mighty grawl, and by the north gate of ice dome. I'll check with my map today for more details and update. Also If you can take something in a larger than 800x600 it'd help tons.

Edit: well, this is the best I can do at this resolution, was wrong about sorrows (I think) and dunes though on the upside.

4thVariety · Oct 24, 2006, 09:32 PM // 21:32

I'm looking for a complete map, so I can overlay my screenshots and see where I miss my final percents. Unfortunately, all maps I found so far seem to have been slightly zoomed, ruining all attemps of creating an exakt overlay.

Does anybody have a link to a 100% map which is only stitched and NOT resized in some way?

lennymon · Oct 24, 2006, 11:59 PM // 23:59

what screen res would you like?

Sophitia Leafblade · Oct 25, 2006, 09:28 AM // 09:28

Ive got above 95% for both Tryia and Cantha and i cant seem to find anywhere im missing especially in Tryia could one of u nice people help me please

im not sure how to get a full size map screenshot.

lennymon · Oct 25, 2006, 02:53 PM // 14:53

My reccomendation is to set your graphics to the highest setting possible(yup, even 1920x1200 if you can). Then you just open the M map, zoom it out and take a screenshot using SHIFT-Printscreen to remove all the outpost pins. Optimally you would then convert that screenshot to a jpg - again at the highest quality and post it here or in the mapping help thread in explorers, which is here for Tyria: http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/s....php?t=3021985

At under 98% there will be large spots, however it'll always be easier for someone else to see since they havent been starting at it trying to find the missing bits, but more importantly its just using an 100% map and a graphics program to compare them.
