I'm doing a quest & I need to get to the location marked on the map below but there seems to be absolutely no way of getting there.

Does anybody know how?

Thanks.

You need to get into Arborstone mission explorable, at screen moment you seem to be going towards Tanglewood. Try going through Altrumm Ruins.

OK now I can't get to this other place, thsi is so annoying.



^^ I can't get to that location, there are just dead ends everywhere. I don't wanna go back into a town or outpost because it will make all the locations I have to visit reset. I need to visit 5 different locations in the same area without re-zoning.

This is the quest - http://gw.gamewikis.org/wiki/Charting_the_Forests

I've visited 2/5 of the Arborstone locations so far.

If i remember correctly that part is in a stream (noticed the meandering stream above Arborstone). I'm not sure if I am thinking of the correct map, but on my way to Altrumn I had to go through this confusing area with ruins. I then found a way to enter the stream part.

Given that I could be completely wrong.

Edit- From your mini map it looks like you have to enter Arborstone. You're green focus is showing you were to go, meaning you have to enter Arborstone (green name) from there... What quest is it? You can just try to wiki it.

I found the location in the first post, it's the location in the 2nd screenshot I need to find now (see above post)

Great, I just went into Arborstone by mistake & it's reset all the locations visited to 0/5 again, this is absolutely bullsh*t, it's so frustrating, F*CK!!!!!!!!!!

Why make out the location is straight ahead of you, but when you follow the map marker you just get lead into a brick wall?

Factions has some stupid maps, but that's no need to throw ,,F*CK''s and ,,bullsh*t''s on your left and right. Just relax, this is just a game.

Try taking right path when you enter Arborstone.

Hi there

If memory serves, as soon as you enter Arborstone explorable, follow quest marker to first spot, should be NE somewhere near entrance, then the next marker will be left of the entrance to Arborstone. A good way to do this is to just clear out the entire area.

I can understand your frustration here. Thank yourself lucky that you weren't trying this quest out when Factions was first released, as one of the quest markers was on the high ground which of course is inaccessible and if you go the other way from Tanglewood Copse, the quest reset itself. I remember cursing and spluttering to this, but then ANet thankfully fixed it, so that quest markers can be reached...

Khazad is correct.

For that 2nd screen shot spot, enter Arborstone explorable from Altrum and go up the (your) right side up the map; go up the hall-like passage that ends in some stairs going up. At the top, turn left and go down the stairs on your left; this will veer right and out through an arched opening to a large open area. Continue straight across and through the opening in the low wall. The path will swing to the right (past a res shrine with priest, merch and 2 guards) and go down more stairs to the watery area of streams. Turn left at the bottom and follow the stream to that spot.
