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.
Livinston can we get this on page one. Would save a lot of time.

If you guys don't know already, I found the easy way to explore the Garden of Sebbelblekebblebleke.
1. enter the thirark orchard mission
2. turn around
3. glitch through the space between the guard on the left and the left wall. (you may need to make the guard face the right to get it to work [talk to him while on his right])
4. explore
1. enter the thirark orchard mission
2. turn around

Don't be too hurt though when 1/2 still miss these.

Nice find though. Livingston Archaic Nightmare
Hi all cheers for all the great work here and congrats to all those that have made it so far. I'm finally stumped at 99.8% so if anyone could work their magic I'd be greatly in debt to them. Here it is at 1024. Thanks in advance.

(you may need to make the guard face the right to get it to work [talk to him while on his right]) 4. explore This is mentioned on guildwiki.net. At the end of the garden mission, the guards from the stairs go to fight the creatures and leave the stairs open for you to walk up. If you leave the winged creatures to fight the guards, you can then walk around the entire garden and the outside without any creatures at all to fight. BTW: Can someone please take a look at my map, because at 99.8% I have no ideas.... 1024x768 I compared it to the OPers 100% map at resolution 1024x768. Ive noticed that one spot, where a town is, warps when you compare it to the OP map. Ive walked around it, but it doesnt look to be needed. I think its a glitch on map somehow or the location has moved. Ive also noticed the 3 spots in and near the garden in the center. Ive explored them, and they havent gone, so either they were missed on the map I compared it to, or again something is different. Other then those 4 subtle differences, which havent added anything, or even changed, I cant find anywhere else. As I said the last time, can you either msg me on here with the image, or email me at [email protected]. I dont check this too often. Cheers SilentVex

Ive explored them, and they havent gone, so either they were missed on the map I compared it to, or again something is different. Those were missed on the map you compared to. I've known about them for some time, and got them the other day. Just need to update my maps. No time to check some maps this moment, later today for sure though. Nya
EDIT: I managed to find the last spot I was missing and got my GMC title
Impressive
I have 99,7% and i'm very tierd.... silent, can u check my map pls?

I will, but only because you used an upside down question mark. That's just flipping sweet (literally :P ).
archaic marked rob marked again again again Rob, can you just post some stitched U maps? I have a feeling you've got a bunch of tiny .05% chunks that I'm not seeing. Everyone else, I haven't forgotten, I just don't have time to look at them this moment.

I don't use the difference method, so I don't know. From what I can see, analyzing a difference map of elona is about 10x more difficult, 10x slower, and 10x less accurate than simply putting your map on the layer above a complete map and clicking it on and off. I can check out a whole map in about 5-7 minutes doing that.
impressive marked TXAR-CUT marked Also, I've updated the .bmp maps, and I'll probably be making a new U map soon. My best guess puts me at 100.8-.9%. \/ Cyan: 2-300%, any closer and you miss stuff.

Vex, how much are you zoomed using that method?

Cheers for that Silent got the last bit sussed now and got my KOABD title today too. Many thanks ;-)

I don't use the difference method, so I don't know... Did photobucket muck the image up? I checked and its stuck the stupid thing down to 800x600 and I doubt I can put anything bigger on. Apparently I need to update it my account for anything bigger. Ill try with imageshack... if this doesnt work ill scream. Cheers for telling me.

It's amazing you can do so much with what I thought was a poor quality screen-shot. Thank you VERY VERY much!

Hello People.
I made this forum account especially for this thing. Im new to the exploring thing (have been playing GW since start though). And well, I got pretty far with the guide and some posts here, but I need help to finish it. What makes it a bit tough for you guys is that I suck at imaging and stuff on PC's. I made a screen of my M map, but i play on a widescreen, so its resolution might be off. I have tried to switch to the resolutions requested, but my view gets very strange (not good for comparing). Hope you people can help me get my very first explorer title. My map is posted below. Im at 98%. Tnxs in advance! EDIT: Faster M pick for the clouds thingy as suggested in first post ChoKILLate[FDG]

Thanks, after trying your method I went from 95% to 99.4% and I still have some areas to get to. If I get stuck I will post my bmp but so far it woks nicely. I even found that it helps some to sharpen both images so that the pixel differences stand out more! Keep up the great work and do you have a link to your new updated bmp map because I think there are a couple spots that I have, that the original does not.
Evilsod The JPG of my map. Done quickly at 1280x1024. 99.5% completed, tabbed 2 of the 3 '100%' maps from the first page and wall hugged all the towns. Now just a little bit stuck... Much appreciated if you could find the rest

^I was in the same boat Sod. Try entering and exiting the Command Post through all the exits in the surrounding areas, that netted me .1-.2%. I'm sitting at 99.7% now, very slowly making my way through areas I did quickly.

I just tried... didn't net me anything. Think i saw 2 things unfog slightly once but other than that not enough for a 0.1%.

Hi all
I really need help, I'm currently on 99.9% explored and I am totally stuck. I was mapping from the start of them game, got to 99.8 when I completed the desolation and managed to uncover some fog in Kamadan but got no % for it. finally got to 99.9 in when I re-mapped some of Gandara. No idea on the last bit. Here is my map any suggestions will be most appreciated! Here is my map 1440x900 http://img353.imageshack.us/img353/4...fury999gm1.jpg freekedoutfish

3rd time lucky.
Im surprised the quality wasnt good enough. I always assumed jpgs didnt loose any quality in the compression. Heres the bmp version: Ok issue; its refusing to let me upload it to imageshack or photobucket due to size limitations on the file itselfs. As a BMP its over 2mb and thats too big. Do you have an email address I can use? or can you think of an alternative image hosting webstite? LicensedLuny
Hi all,
I just recently finished my Elona GMC map, and that makes three GMC titles. Since I got the first Tyria one, I've been writing guide posts for friends with screenies of my maps, only in sections rather than the whole thing at once. The smaller images can be helpful for some approaches to finding the missing bits. My friend, and the site admin, was kind enough to give me permission to leave links here in case anyone else finds these helpful. my Tryian Grandmaster Cartographer guide my Canthan Grandmaster Cartographer guide (mostly just maps) my Elonian Grandmaster Cartographer guide (again, mostly just maps) I haven't put anything naughty (that I know of) in the specific post pages, but if you go exploring around further please note that they're on a site that's:not entirely about Guild Wars not entirely in English not entirely fit for children or the squeamish or the politically correct Hope it helps, and best of luck to everyone out there working on these titles! Cheers, Luny death_by_sparkles
Thanks a ton Vex your spots helped me get another percent to 99.0% but im stuck again. It'd be awesome if you could check mine one more time to help me get that last 1% its killing me lol. Thanks again, you rock.

Silent ur spots help me a lot but i'm stuck at 99,7% O.o! (tears...)
Can u help me one more time Elona map 99,7%--> http://i14.tinypic.com/48g6yhl.jpg Thx again Great Rob
aww man, i knew this would happen. I've hit 99.9% (thanks a huge deal to SilentVex) but now i'm stuck yet again.
Unfortunately I don't have the required programs/knowledge to stitch together a bunch of U maps. So pretty please could you have one final look Silent? I'm currently at work so can't post an updated map, but here's my latest one you checked http://i12.tinypic.com/300frmc.jpg . And here's the latest marked one you gave me http://www.ps-mc.com/arcane/wtf/rob4_marked.jpg. I've been to all those locations so just one more spot should hopefully be enough. (if you want an updated map let me know and i'll post it when i get home) Thanks again

98.5% can anyone help me? thaks a lot ChoKILLate[FDG]
Yeah...I made it on my own using Silent Vex's photoshop technique. I truly believe that this is one of the harder titles to get and carries a lot more prestige than most of the other titles that can be done AFK.
