I have recently aquired information about this "lost land". The few I have spoke to who knew about it said that the area was made unreachable 3 days after the games release. But with all the glitches out there i beleive it would still be accessable today.
I have also come across items in the game that are just a white block. i know of the glitch where if you have not downloaded the skin of this item it apears as a whit block, but that is not the case here. The items just have a name and thats all. No picture or information just whats its named. I'm looking for the white block named The Chalice of Power.
If you have any information regaurding this please tell me and i will research it. And if you come across any of these "white blocks" please inform me and we will figure out what all this means.


EDIT by Swehurn To clarify this post, I deleted the comment that appeared to be an attempt to recruit.

I don't beleive i have a video card issue here. The matter is, I have gone as far as too search for one of these "white blocks" myself. It had no name or information. Along with what you said about downloading the skins to the weapons; when Factions first released somone traded me an item from factions only, once i have the item in my inventory it just showed up as a "under construction" tag. I thought i was scamed but the naxt day after a small download it showed up as a Bladed Sheild.
And you're right I could have been lied to, but i have a "white block" in my possestion so that means not all of them were lies.

Kinda also sounds like it might be a guild recruiting scheme, lol.
Hehe, well I do suppose this does seem very far fetched but I think it is true.

I do vaguely recall the day after Factions went live; I was stuck on Eternal Grove so I was screwing around in Kaineng Center. One guy was offering to run to some place he called the imperial island or something like that for 25k. I didn't waste my time with him but he said it wasn't raisu palace or imperial sanctum.

The thing that really puzzles me is; south of Henge i noticed there was something that looked a lot like a bridge, but it was being blocked and on the other side you could clearly see a trail leading off of it. And I waited and and every now and then you see a Jungle Troll walking the trail. That is what got me into thinking it may be possible to get over that barrier blocking the path.

There is a Guild hall called the Imperial Isle. He may have just been messing around, but i will look into it.

I beleive that the "Lost land" is located in that mountain region south of Henge. I mean, if you explore all down there you notice you still have a large area not un-shaded because it was unreachable. This is the same area where i saw the bridge. So that might be the place. Or there could be more than one "lost land".

But im not going to get ahead of myself with thought of more than one "lost land".

I will put a picture of the "white block" and the bridge up for veiwing on my photobucket account. And i will also put up a msg i recieved from some in game saying i need to quit telling people about this matter and i should stop trying to reach this spot all together.
Admin maybe?

Well even though all the information i have im still no closer to the answers. If you all could help me that would be great. Any information you find you can post it at [email protected] .

Although it may seem like it. I am not just trying to get recruits here. The only reason i offered anyone to join my guild is if they think it is true and wish to find out more. I will just say if you want to you can just add my character to your friends listing. Name: Yuuki Hanyou

i think i know what u say in henge.
wen guildwars was released, every town had his own pvp arena, exemple : ascalon arena in ascalon.
but they removed them and made the random arena.
there was an arena in henge it was called "druid something" and there was another one in amnoon oasis, wish u can see the door but cannot go in.
but i would still like to see a screenshot of that bridge and the troll if possible

I will return to the bridge and wait for the troll to pass and i will take a screen shot of it and post it on photobucket. I'm also thinking the assasin skills such as the teleport skills could get us to the other side of the barrier if we got someone to get the troll closer somehow and then the assassin uses the Death Charge skill (or whatever it is named) and warp to the troll.

That's nothing, there is a huge area inaccessible next to Snake Dance. Reveal the right side and you can clearly see a very defined path weaving in and out of the fog of war you can't clear.

I'm still thinking there are more than one area that was made inaccessable. As for now im going to try and get past the area south of Henge. I believe that is the most likley spot.
I investigated that area some more but the troll did not pass buy. But, I think i found another lead for this area. Like in factions you can only get to certain areas by compleating certain missions or quests. I think this is what we have to do. I was told there is a quest item that you can get just like the "white blocks". This source said that there used to be an NPC called Giglamor and that is where you got the quest. I'm not really thinking this is true though because they could have just came up with the name using the ancient war lord Giglamesh's name.
I will look into it anyway.

I believe that random arena was called "The Crag"

As for the Henge, there was an arena NE too called "Fort Koga"

Hope that helps..

Most parts of Tyria can't even be assessible. Parts of maps that are blocked are just there which ends pathways.

Southeast corner of Tasca's Demise for example. While defogging, I found a locked gate that leads into absolutely nothing.

Even if it exsists its unreachable, obviously because there are people who have walked every milimeter of tyria and cantha.
Just get over it ull never get to what your looking for.

I will have to go check out hte area you are talking about, but since we're on the subject, here's another locale that does not seem to correlate to an accessible place. It is due north of Sanctum Cay. You can see it from at least two spots along the northern shore of Sanctum Cay. It appears to be in the little unmappable cove just to the west of D'Alessio Seaboard. It is most likely where the White Mantle come from in the mission (they also circle around to the souther shore). You can see the structures in the backgrounds (they look like they have some kind of crappy testing textures, though that could be due to the LOD). Also, I was not far enough north to be able to see the mountains wrap around like the map shows (it is a cove/small bay on the map), due to the way GW dooesn't render distant objects.


The red circles are where you can stand to see what is in the yellow circle.

Most likely someone clearing the map (at least around Area 2) should be able to get closer to the shore and get a better look at the fortress and ships near it.

I agree.

I strongly believe all of Tyria has been discovered. Refer to the beta map posted below to solve some of your inquiries.

everyone is being very helpful in my search to solve this mystery. I beleive if we all work at it we will get this figured out. Me and a few friends have been investigating the area mentioned in msg #34. We saw what he was talking about.
I'm thinking theyre making some of these areas for other expantion packs like nightfall so they cut them off from everyone to incorperate in that story line. Well that i think is only true for the Henge area. As for these other areas ... they seem to be more mysterious than my original area.
Oh and im also going to post a picture of the "White Block" in my next post if im on my pc.

All of this info on the Henge arena is true but I am speaking of the large mountain terrain looking filler area on the coast of the sea bellow henge. That is the area i beleive was made inaccessable.

Cyber Nigma might be on to something. I heard that Gilglamosh (still think this one is made up) is where Nigma's first pick is pointing to. The red circles really helped i went there and saw what he was talking about and i believe that is the place we should START looking. The idea we had using the assassin skills to death charge to the troll was not a success. we got the troll to run down to the trail but it would just compleatly freeze half way down then disappear. We were all tired of this and loged out for the night. So if anyone knows any glitches or anything like that that would be very helpful.
