The forum user seut has kindly supplied a set of his "U" maps, which he has 101 Mastery Points for:


****************************

Posted from Seut:

"I have 316points in the Masters of the North title. After hugging all walls i had 100 points from exploration. Entering every dungeon by myself added the extra point.

The spine structure in the Charr Homelands can't be uncovered with in game methods.

****************************

Tips:Hug the walls!!! Every single area you go to, including outposts. Hug the Walls! This means that you need to travel around the edge of each and every area you come to. This will not only uncover most of the fog within the area, it will also uncover bits of fog that are outside of the explorable area, including water and small islands close to the coast. Most areas that people miss are found by extreme wall hugging. So no matter what area you are in, grab a wall and show it some love. When hugging the walls, Walk Slowly! If you run it, you can easily skip over little corners and juts that you would have hit had you walked, and these are usually the places that people miss. Slow and steady wins the race! You can also accidentally skip over these areas if you are not using the keyboard to move, as mouse walking is extremely inaccurate. If you are not facing the wall that you are exploring, then you are doing it Wrong. Facing the wall (at least a 45' angle) will ensure you hit every nook you can. Otherwise you can pass them up even when going slowly. The Spine structure in the Charr Homelands cannot be fully uncovered. The unfogged map hosted by TCFish is not accurate to true in-game cartography. So please DON'T ASK ABOUT IT!

Only Anet knows for sure, but it's save to assume, that once EotN hard mode is unleashed upon us, the Master of the North title will be maxable and will require 100 points from exploring (that 101st extra point is most likely an oversight from Anet).

RTSFirebat: Of course i got 101 points from exploring. My post was just to make sure everybody understands the context in which my original post was made in. Otherwise some people could get the impression, that i only have 81% uncovered.

In the old thread some people asked for a screenshot of a M-map (1024x768 with clouds!)

hmm 1 question, you sure u didn't clear the exits in Alcazia Tangle, Drakkar Lake, Varajar Falls with quest on?

cos i find it hard to believe that you were able to get 101/101 by not clearing those areas n you also missed a spot in SE of Riven Earth.
from my comparsion, i have all the areas u have cleared + more (SE Riven Earth n i've cleared exits on Alcazia Tangle with quest) but i'm still at 100/101. http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/s...php?t=10203499

ok cool, thats good to confirm.. so anyone can get 101/101 eton carto i guess.

unfortunately i dont think i left any area in middle of maps cos ive done enough chest runs, title point farming in most areas.. n i've entered all dungeons on my own. but i haven't given up yet.. so hopefully find the missing 0.1/101 soon ;p

I have 101 without entering all the dungeons. I currently have 161 points, with 2 dungeons complete and 3 primaries left ( 20 +101 + 40[55-15] = 161).

Just try and download them again later.

336 is the maximum you can attain at this time:
55 points for completing primary missions.
180 points for completing quest dungeons.
100 points for normal cartography.
1 point for bug quest cartography.

hehe there are at least three different eton carto ;p quests.
you can clear the unexplorable areas through the exits with quest on but problem is most(or all of em? cant remember hehe) quests arent repeatable.

The Great Norn Alemoot is one of em, screenshot attached.
there is another solo quest (umm cant remember which one it was, probably Bear Club for Men/Women)
n you can clear all exist in Alcazia Tangle with non-solo asura quest (again cant remember the name but i think u get the quest from Tarnished Haven or just outside of it)

I'm at 325, only missing the completion of Slaver's Exile NM and that 1 extra point in cartography. I've compared maps and can't find any missing. Already have cart titles in the 3 other continents so I'm familiar with the methods but the above sounds interesting if it exists. I didn't want to start the HM points until I fnished all NM.

you missed a chunk in drakkar lake - where the stone summit bosses are - and a few smaller chunks elsewhere - otherwise its a good map to get people started on 100% - probably 98% here I would think - give or take.

Hmm, let's take a look at the (3 years old) thread title: "GW:EN Map - Guide to 101 Mastery Point Cartographer! (No map check requests!) "

I'd guess "no."

So where would one get their map check... please direct me to a source. I'd do it myself but Texmod does not work on my computers.
