Tips and Maps for 100% Tyria Exploration (No Map Checks)

Lil tip: (most prolly know it but what the heck). When you do "Great Northern Wall" make sure you exit thru the passage opened by the charr when they flood in and you are supposed to run back and warn of their attack. Go out thru the passage and open up the map as fast as you can, you only have 3 mins or so, if you solo then you have to be quick as they all (charr) follow you and agro etc.. I found another .2 to .3 % of land there. Hope it helps.

I'm currently stuck at 98%, apart from the backend route of the ring of fire mission i'm totally stuck. If anyone can compare by difference for me or give me any pointers, i will greatly appreciate it. Thanks.

Well got to 99.1% and been trying for to long to find last little bits and its driving me insane as im sure it does to most people. I know theres a little bit at bottum left of dunes but got bored trying to get it.

Any help would be great, thanks

Here's a quick comparison for ya. The red circled areas require further exploration.

Wobrat, added an extra 1% already in the Ascalon & Yaks areas and the Kryta mission. Marty, that tar was a good suggestion - never knew you could get there. Sweet! Thanks for doing these maps.

Thank you Wobrak for doing my map.

How do i get to the back bit of Nolani academy mission without the cutscene butting in and completing the mission before i have a chance to explore?

cheers
up to 98.5% now

Nolani Academy - After the cutscene at the gate don't follow Rurick. He will go east and follow his path. You can go west and follow the border all the way to the final boss, Burntfur. When you see the boss don't fight, continue to explore. Don't worry about Rurick, he won't die. You should be able to clear the west and south areas with ease.

Thanks Wobrak for the Nolani Info it worked 1st time...

Another question, Is it possible to remove all the for from directly south of ascalon city? I tried with fort ranik and tried from the west accross the tar as well both of which still left bits to explore, It was highlighted on my map that Wobrak kindly did for me but i cant seem to get it. any help would be greatfully recieved

Currently 92.0%. I tried the comparison thingy in Photoshop but I couldn't get it working. Any help would be much appreciated. Here's my screenie:

How is it possible to get the bottum left of the Dunes of Despair, i have tried so many times

99.7 now.. grrr..

ty ty ty to all the caring and sharing people who posted their tips and meticulously constructed maps in this thread. I took your advice, and I used your maps, and I did it!

Hi Silver Star...

I can relate to your frustration. It took me a few tries and a lot of trial and error and patience.

I reached the southern part of Dunes with the hero, Olias (I have NF), two other heroes, Alesia and another player. I made Olias N/Mo and equipped him with Necrotic Traversal and Rebirth. I equipped myself and my heroes with vamp weapons, and the other player used a vamp weapon. We placed the Ghostly Hero safely away from the altar so that he wouldn't trigger the timer and stationed Alesia with him in the unlikely event he was attacked by an errant scarab. He wasn't. Because no suitable boss spawned at the south fort to kill, we killed a scarab through the west gate and Olias NT'd into it. My heroes, the other player and I held our vamp weapons until we died and Olias rebirthed us to the other side of the gate. We killed all but one of the bosses and then mapped the entire area before killing the last boss and getting the bonus.

Remember that the bridge to the southeast fort is up and closed, but it's not solid and you can walk through it.

This was maybe too much information, but I hope it helped. Good luck!

Can someone post a Zoomed map? I am at 81% and I have some difficults too see the hot spots!

I'm stuck at 96.4% i have to do dunes of despair but that won't give me 3.6% so if someone can help me it will be greatly appreciate.

edit : -_- forget the map...
edit2 : better resolution ^^
edit3 : updated my map now 96.6%

Well i can get to all the rest of Duens to explor but there is one litte fort like part in the bottum left that i cant seem to get to even with hugging the walsl for about 5minutes

Yay, finally 100%

The last 1% was a bitch lol..

A big thanks to Dougal Kronik and Wobrak for analysing my map!

munnif: 1) no and it looks like you've uncovered the areas that can be, 2) doing the bonus is what gets you passed the gate.

Thank you Wobrak...

And thank you for reminding me. I completely forgot to say that I greatly admire you and the others who so selflessly spend their own time analyzing maps for others.

1) Yes, see attachment ascalon.jpg
This is a comparison of my Ascalon and yours. Notice in mine the finer fog over the tar pit is gone. I put two red X's on your map as possible elimination points. Also notice the other red circled area east of the Northern Wall. When compared to mine you still have some covered area. As you are running back from the Charr there will be a path that leads to your right (left on map) before the final bridge. That path will help you uncovered that area.
2) see Asrial's post above
