So, the map I uploaded will have a spot missing in Tahnnakai temple, and another in boreas seabed. Those have since been filled, and added another half a percent to my total.

I think I can see an area you are missing that I only found myself last night. The north coast above Raisu palace is explorable all the way back to the Kaineng Docks. There are a load of boats there that you can walk out onto to reveal some edges of islands too.

Apologies if you already have this, but it certainly looked "clouded" on your map, but it could just be jpg artifacts! LOL

Have fun!

I'm at 94% as of now, the remaining 1.5% could possiblely be in that place you glitched into. Do you remember how you glitched into?

@leighwyn: Can you actually do the Zen Daijun mission?

TheDriftingSoul · May 25, 2006, 08:22 PM // 20:22

What program do you guys use to view these pics so that they are nice and clear when you zoom in?
I guess my real question would be, how do I go about grabing this map and taking a pic of my own so that I can do a good comparison?

Leighwyn · May 25, 2006, 10:41 PM // 22:41

Hidden:: I've done that, must not be clear in the map.

Carinae:: No, you cant do the Zen Daijun mission, can't get into the town itself. Must enter the zone via the 15 attrib quest gate.

All:: What i'll say about how to get into that zone is to use the fact that you enter it from a TOWN, and not an EXPLORABLE AREA. That's the difference with this one

It opens up fun ways to trick the game that aren't otherwise available

Leighwyn · May 26, 2006, 04:37 AM // 04:37

Up to 96.6%, finally did Jade Quarry!

Hidden in the Mist · May 27, 2006, 02:15 AM // 02:15

My character now reached 98.9%. There's still 1.1% of Cantha hidden from me and I believe it's at the Shing Jea Arena which is still restricted from Tyrians.

Indian · May 27, 2006, 07:02 AM // 07:02

96.7% im stuck

how to clear area south from Shing Jea Monestary?

Beorn Drake · May 27, 2006, 04:27 PM // 16:27

With yesterdays update they unlocked the mission towns in Shing Jea island.

I have my Tyrian warrior at Ran Musu Gardens and am on my way to the 2nd mission.
Also, I noticed this update was not posted on the home page so Inde has been emailed in case he didn't already hear about it.

TheDriftingSoul · May 27, 2006, 05:53 PM // 17:53

I have managed to get 99% even. However, I do believe that is just about the limit. Tyrians will probably never be able to enter the Canthan starter area(.7%) or the starter arena(.3%).

Leighwyn · May 27, 2006, 06:59 PM // 18:59

I made it to 99.4% and have only one tiniest of spots that I know of in the NE corner of Shenzun. Here is my zoomed-out map, 1280x1024.

edit: 99.5% after getting the spot.

Juicey Shake · May 27, 2006, 07:07 PM // 19:07

here's mine, difference on yours hows 0% ?! why must JPG do this to me ~_~;

How did you get to that spot? I tried to remove it but it won't disappear.

Leighwyn · May 28, 2006, 04:56 AM // 04:56

You get it from the Undercity (it took me three different zones to figure that one out heh) Oh, and if it matters, I got my cardinal directions backwards and it's the NW corner

Indian · May 28, 2006, 05:51 AM // 05:51

any clues about clearing that certain section, in Imperial Santum like where shiro teleports u to different place, sadly i never got teleported

is there way to make him teleport me?

+ need more clues please, im stuck on 97.1%

here's my map

Leighwyn · May 28, 2006, 06:14 AM // 06:14

In case some of you don't browse the other thread I posted this in...

This post has a link to my own Canthan map, based around a Tyrian having 99.5% complete (which I have yet to see improved upon). I'm not aware of any particular spot I'm lacking, so if you find something you have that I don't please let me know!

How to best use this map:

Download it. It's just over 3mb, best not to open in a browser.
Open the image in the program of your choosing (I use IrfanView).
Open up Guild Wars in windowed mode (keeping the image still open...hope your PC isn't crap and can handle the resource management )
Open your minimap [default key is 'U'], and make it as large as you are comfortable with.
By using alt-tab or the like, swap between Guild Wars and your image viewer, adjusting the position of your minimap (click-drag) or the image, depending on your preference
Once you have them with areas that are perfectly lined up, rapidly switch back and forth (again using alt-tab or its equivalent) and note where the differences are (they should be easily discerned using this technique).
After noting where discrepancies are, move onto the next area. Drag your minimap to this new one, begin the lining up process again, and then repeat the rapid-switching back and forth.
Repeat until you've covered all of the explorable map.
Map all the spots you've found, and report back to me if you've found something I'm missing!

I have now 99.3% cleared with Tyrian character. Thought that last update would give a warming breeze to all Tyrians but it seems that lowlevel arena & dojo have some weight here

Kalki · May 28, 2006, 06:47 AM // 06:47

Thanks Leighwyn.

I'm at 99.2% with my Tyrian char now. I didn't get into Zen Daijun explorable area yet, and I might be able to get another .2% if some gates that are closed in the mission, are opened in the explorable area. Also, when fighting Shiro it looks like there are 4 banishment areas, but I only get sent to the one in the NW corner and henchies always get sent to the SW corner. I wonder if there is a way to get to the other areas, which would probably be another .2%. I still haven't found a group to full clear the north part of Tahnnakai Temple which might be another .1 or .2% after I clean up the edges. Finally, a friend of mine reminded me that if I joined alliances in control of some towns might clear some of the map for me. I think it might be possible to get 100% with a Tyrian char now, but it will be hard.

If anyone needs some help or wants to explore anywhere message me in-game or add me. My main is Monos Mistwalker.

Leighwyn · May 28, 2006, 08:03 AM // 08:03

I was wondering the same thing, myself, about the gated Fireworks Master areas of towns...browsing through all the various ones, I didn't really see any that would allow you to reveal more fog, since they're generally surrounded by areas you CAN get to. The potential ones, as far as I can discern, are....

Saint Anjeka's Shrine, Brauer Academy, Eredon Terrace (definite possibility), Bai Paasu Reach, and maybe House Zu Heltzer.

I've tried the banishment, too, but without a party he wouldnt banish and with a party I was never the lucky one heh. Are those areas for-sure mappable? If so maybe I can get up to 99.6 or even 99.7!

edit: an affirmative on the banishment, got up to 99.6% now. But I only ever go to the NW area too.

jackie · May 28, 2006, 11:49 AM // 11:49

So far there is no chance to get teleported to another place than that one little spiral spirit way in the final map...I tested this yesterday evening with henchies & friends and all variations between..

Might be a bug or those other islands are just for look *scratches & ponders*
