Island South of Perdition Rock / Ember Light Camp
Sword

Back in the old days of prophecies there used to be an arena there called "The Craig" or something to that extent which was on that south island part.

yah, when factions came out, Anet changed the way pvp arenas were done (and located).
RA used to be one of the islands south of lion's arch and the guild hall right next to it.
There's also an arena in the maguuma jungle that you can't go into to explore anymore either.

And that makes it very much more difficult to get to 100% compared to the people who entered those arenas pre-Factions. (well, thats my excuse for struggling to get past 98.9%)

Nah, it's not hard getting 100% without the Arena's. If you're stuck with the last few % use something like Photoshop to compare your map with a 100% map.

Yeah, I heard that even though the old Arenas did count as exploration percentage, there is in fact more than 100% of Tyria to be explored, and you can find some nooks and crannies to make up for it.
Don't be upset. One of my chars was around when those arenas were opened, but never explored them fully! :S

For this,
use www.gimp.org, The Gimp instead.
Open Source so it's free as in beer.
Why pay money for a program that you might rarely use and only need here and now for a game title ?
There is a good article somewhere here about how to compare maps, it's based on Photoshop, but easily adaptable for gimp, I've done it for Elona and got my GMC there with that help.

That is true for all three continents. You will reach 100% exploration before you actually have uncovered every last corner of the map (my Grandmaster Canthan Cartographer never has been inside the Jade Quarry, for example). That said, newer characters who have never been to those PvP areas have a harder time reaching the title, but it still is doable.
