It's actually not required for NF. I didn't beat NF for a good week after I got my title. That little bit in the Chantry of Secrets isn't necessary, even for foreign characters.

When you've got 98 then post a map. Scraping literally any zone again will net you more. I just can't post a link to your marked map and not feel bad for doing all the hard work for you.

Thanks to Silent and Linvingston for responding to my posts and helping me along to this Title. Good luck to all.

Silent vex here's mine it's 99.2% if you can help that would be awsome!

Ah thanks for pointing that out. Know that now, but didn't know it then.
I've taken out the part that says game completion is required, but left the bit about starting with a character that has completed the game, as it does make it easier to make sure you have got most of the things that are needed. Livingston woundedfighter

lol.. >
thats just non maximized screen of game ( it auto sizes it to current pixiles ) woundedfighter

Livingston beating the game has nothing to do with GMC for NF or non NF chars. since The Realm of Torment has no % what soever in it for maps. so i dont see how it makes it easier
Prospero
Hmmm.... I've been stuck at 99.1% for days. Any advice?

Yeah thats true but hugging the walls tightly wont make you need that area in Chantry of Secrets. I even have some of the upper side of the wurm challenge still fogged and I got 100% already.
Sophitia Leafblade
Ive wall hugged every area in the map except the wurm challenge, but i dont think that area will give me the 1.9% i need to get 100%

this is true . BUT i dide even get .1% from it
klorbonde
This i a very easy grandmaster title.. i got to 99,8% without hugging the wall, but just run along the wall.. And then i found 0,1% by looking at a 100%map, and the last 0,1% was found by silentvex, and took me 2 minutes to get.. This title can be maxed in no time..

There is about .3% that you can get from the end game area, but that's not what really matters. If I told people on the front page that you don't need to beat the game to get the title, there would be heaps of people coming in that hadn't even traveled to 75% of the explorable areas and they would still want help finding what they need. I spent over two months checking people's Canthan maps. Whatever you set as the minimum will be the majority of what you get. So I'm not going to go there. Livingston woundedfighter
well i didnt get poop back there
so

I have only checked 1 of the 3 maps in the OP so far (via alt-tab). Its gotten me to 98.9% and i can't seem to see anything that i've missed.
Which are the most common places that people miss? I've checked Nundu Bay pier and Chahbek Village and done the Dynastic Tombs. But i just can't see anywhere that i would be missing 1.1%. SilentVex
Sophitia Leafblade: Way too low quality of a jpg.
Vaker: It got resized to 800x640. Both of you check end of OP post 2. rob marked Prospero marked And here are some commonly missed spots. I always double check all these spots when comparing a map because probably about 1/2 seem to miss them. Nya marked - from post below \/ Nya
Can you have a look at this map for me Silent? I got stuck at 98.5%

Hey Vex, i was just trying to compare Nya's and found some of the spots you also found, but not all. Maybe i will try to do this while im bored and dont want to play guild wars.. Do you have any advice?

Cyan: You're always welcome to take a look at peoples' maps. A second set of eyes helps. I'm currently just putting them on seperate layers with my own maps in photoshop and then clicking the top one on and off. It's nearly flawless, provided the quality of the maps is good.

Could someone please have a look at my umap.
I'm up to 99.6% and I've gone over a 100% map several times and can't find the last little bit. This is on my Tyrian char. Thanks in advance. Jhad http://homepage.ntlworld.com/mic.d/G...int6NFumap.jpg

Opps Sorry Vex, is this one any betta, thanks

Didn't even need to compare maps once to get GM this time. Took it easy and just explored every area when I got to it, and it was much more enjoyable than rushing, then coming back through to explore it all ;p
Torpoon
I need some help i notice i haven't explored the whole challenge mission area but that can't be the 4% i need. How can i post my map so people can help me i really worked hard for 100% and i would hate to not get it.
SilentVex Tarzan Yamada
Could you guys give me a good idea how to post a map? I have 99.3% explored and have compared my map to several others. just can't find the rest. Thanks!
Livingston
It's explained in the OP.
Congrats guys ^_^
BuD
Could someone please check out my map please? Im at 99.8% with 2 "chunks" towards 99.9%
Thanks in advance.
lavenbb
99.9% and very frustrated ><
can anyone check mine too please?
Jhadur
Thanks Vex you got me my first Cartographer title
SilentVex
You 3 were all really close (within .2) so I wasn't 100% thorough. Should be plenty to get the last bit though.
Lycan X marked wounded marked lavenbb marked Jhadur: Congrats dude, glad I could help. 
Great Rob
Well i've reached 99.7% and hit a road block.
Could you please take one last look at this updated map Silent and help me with the last .3% http://i12.tinypic.com/300frmc.jpg Thanks in advance

I meant how can you easily see those spots on the map? Some of the spots you found was almost impossible for me to see the difference at- Great Rob, just tried to look on your map, and here's what (i think) i found: My first real try, so please dont expect too much ^^ klorbonde
He dont use his eyes.. He's using photoshop to do it.. But it works very nice
