Thanks for your previous reply Livingston. I've had another go at the bits you mentioned and have also (I hope) cleared the path running directly South of Jade Quarry Kurzick, Jade Sea points 10 and 13, the area East of Unwaking Waters point 8 as well as several others. This has put me to 99.6%. I have put up new maps, could you help me identify the remining 0.4%. I'm almost sure that "Middle Cantha" point 19 is one of them but am having trouble getting into Jade Quarry atm. I'm also not completely sure that I uncovered Shing Jea point 20, I can't really tell although I did walk backwards and forwards along the beach and the little island with the boss on it.

I'm having trouble exploring Kaineng 10 and 11. Shiro banishes me but I get unbanished really soon so I can't map the area well. As for #11 - I never get banished there.

If you show me a screenshot with your 99.6% then you will be exempt from the Rule of 6 dum-du-dum!

As is I don't have time to check maps at the moment, but you are missing spot 16 in Mount Qinkai area, which you can uncover by replaying the cinematic in the Luxon area of Fort Aspenwood.

oke, i have been going over several spots last night but still at 99.8%



the only spots i am more or less sure of i miss is 19 on the mount Kinkai map & at Shiro.

I have made new screenshots to rule out the spots i uncovered after my last post.

I still dont get the Return/recall trick to work, so if anyone can help me with that ingame, same for the Raisu palace Necrotic Traversal trick. Could it be because i have a Tyrian character? though i doubt strongly as others did manage it.

I'm located in the Netherlands btw

Shing Jea

25
Just south of 19

Kaineng

7
8
10
11 (maybe. Your screenshot cuts it off so I cant be sure)
14
15
16 (Its on the East edge of my circle and thus hard to see if not using another map to compare)
19

Mount Qinkai

5 (This one is also on the East edge of circle and thus difficult to see using my map)
A spot between 16-17. It may be that the fog from that is bleeding over onto 16

You are also missing heaps of area near Jade Quarry.

I haven't checked all of your maps, but this should be way more than enough for you to get the last .4%

No it doesn't matter that you are Tyrian. I will help you with this if you still want to get it after you have 100%, but frankly I consider it cheating to get this area before you have 100% as it gives you a heap of percentage points, which means you don't have to clear a lot of the spots that you should have to get normally on your maps, and between that and the Eredon Terrace exploit, it simply makes the title way too easy to obtain, and thus cheapens it in my eyes. But then again I consider myself to be somewhat of a purest in many aspects of gaming...

Spot 1 did reveal something as you no longer need it, and you did before. It just didn't give you a % point so you probably didn't notice the difference.

Shing Jea:

You might still be able to unclear more of 24

Kaineng:

You know that you are missing a portion of the banishment area

8
9
14 (You can tell by looking at the area right along the East line of my circle. Thus you need to be comparing to a different map to see it
20

Mount Qinkai:

1
5

You are also missing the Kurzick side of the Jade Quarry.

These spots will easily get you your .2%

I could check for more, but your maps are too small.

I fully agree with the cheating part, i did'nt need "cheats" for the Tyrian title, it 's just that after a while it becomes compulsary to get the title and
anything will do to see 100% on that bar.

i 'll go over the spots you mentioned again asap.

thanks

Gilibran

p.s. on the maps, photobucket, used wrong settings prob they show high res when viewed in photobucker chack that asap to

Note

I have been summoned to take part in a Guild Wars Guru board project (as indicative of my title), thus whatever time I have while not working will have to go towards that.

As a result I will not be able to check maps here for a time, which will probably continue until well after the release of Nightfall.

I'm not sure if Leighwyn might have time to check maps in the mean time.

In any case if you use my thread: http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/s...php?t=10032479

Which I have been updating to make sure that it's even more user friendly, you should be able to manage on your own for a while.

Good luck

Livingston

Jeroendebue:

Kaineng: 10, vizunah foreign quarter spot, west edge of tahnnakai explorable (west of 12), 15, 7, 16, spot interior to nahpui explorable.

Qinkai: 1

Luxon: above 7, 16,

Unwaking: 2, 11, 12, between 9 and 10 (sort of the very east part of 9?), 9 itself


That's 15 spots, you're missing 0.4% so these will either get you right to the edge of 100% or just past the threshold. What it also means is all the areas you didnt post screens of have spots missing as well, so if you get ALLll of these and still don't have 100% you will know why.

Elliot: Sorry, can't help you out. At 2% left you have so many spots that you could easily find them on your own using the techniques that are well-described elsewhere. Given that ~3 spots gives 0.1%, you're missing about 60 spots

Alt-tab is simple and effective, I would recommend you use it If you haven't read Livingston's thread, you should also do that...because very likely, most of those ~60 spots are labeled on his maps.

I love precise maps
I wasn't able to uncover some parts you had to do from the undercity but by making screens and comparing them with irfanview (changed the picture 2times a second) you can find a lot of tiny spots.
Shiro never banished me (34 times others were banished) until i lowered my hp to 330.

i found some places on the north part of the skyway that can be uncovered btw.
