Hey guys.
This is my map, which is 96.1%. I know of some areas, but I'd like someone to take a look if they would and point out anywhere that I may have missed and don't have in my mind. I can tell you immediately that I need to revisit Lornar's Pass and a small area in Ice Floe.
Help would be appreciated.

@ RPGManiac - check this post (#2332) I edited my post just above yours with your map in it 
We are not allowed to make too many posts if we can edit one to address 2 people. So please read carefully, you will notice the Edited by: thing by a lot of my and Wobraks' posts 
@ AMP - No problem Hope you get that 100% quickly
@ Malibu - I'll check your map in the next 2 hours quick. Just at the office quick
@ Dwest - No map attached there, what we need you to do is set your game to run fullscreen, change the resolution to 1024x768 then open your map (M) and hold down SHIFT+PrintScrn to take the image. Then post that on here

Hi all, I could use a map compare for Tyria (map attached at 1280x1024). At 98.6%, and running out of places to scrape.
Any help is appreciated.

Hey all, Im currently at 92% and for the life of me I cant find where im missing places to explore :P

Your map is at 1440x900 and I don't have that resolution available. Please use either 1024x768 or 1280x1024 or 1600x1200. Just edit your current post instead making a new one. I'll keep an eye out for your edit.
In the mean time explore the following areas:
Icedome
Frozen Forest
Lornar's Pass
Dreadnought's Drift
Snake Dance
Thunderhead Keep (northern area)
Frost Gate (southern area)
The Falls (northern area)
Dunes of Despair (southern area)

Hi
I'm at 99.3% on my elementalist now. And I really wanted to complete this before the end of the week. I tried to analyse my map myself but I can't find anything more (that is not in arenas). Maybe I just don't have luck with the maps I downloaded... Anyway, I would be very happy if someone could indicate me where I can find my last 0.7% =D I really appreciate your work.
My map is in 1024x768 btw : http://i16.tinypic.com/2wduhlh.jpg

Here you go Saki, bit more difficult with the last few 0.x% so be slow when you walk the edges.
Just a tad more to go though so goodluck!

Wobrak,
Thanks so much for all your help thus far. Now I am sitting at 99.7% (oooh so close).
I know I have a small dot in the NE corner of dreadnaughts drift, and another small dot in the SE corner of IceDome. I doubt either of those will add up to 0.1% much less the 0.3 I need.
On my last map review, there was a section circled on the SE corner of Frost Gate mission. I redid that entire area, and I spent about 30 mins spider crawling that entire southern area, and I cannot see where I gained anything. If it still shows on this map, I would love to know what I missed.
Also I revisited Dunes of Dispair bonus section again. I did pickup an additional 0.1% from a run there, but not from a spot previously marked. I may have to go back, but I've hugged that western and southern wall pretty hard.
I plan on making a trip back in to dreadnaughts drift and that western part of lornar pass later this week.
Hopefully my next post will be a screen of the shiny new title and a showering of "thank you's".

Hello,
After having been stuck on 98.2% for a very long time I decided a few days ago to finish the job but thus far I only managed to scrape it off to 98.7% and I find myself revisiting places to make double sure I didn't miss anything. Someone pointed out to me that there's generous people on gwguru who actually look at your map and tell you where to go, and after a bit of looking around I think I found it Anyway so here it is,
http://organised-art.com/gw053.bmp
There's the picture in 1074x768, it's a bmp but as far as I know it loads superfast (if you have a quick connection). If someone could help me out here that would be super great.
(awesome + awesome = super great)

Here's a comparison for ya. The red circled areas require further exploration.
You're almost there. You probably won't have to visit every area to get your GMC.
Actually, I prefer to use BMP files for comparisons because you don't lose info in any compression. But they must set a limit here for attachments or they would be overloaded.

Wow many thanks! Have you guys been mentioned by the scribe yet for your good work? Because you should!
As for the bmp, that's what I thought so I put it on my own webspace. This jpg will do fine, looks like I have my work cut out for me
Kind of a big deal, here I come!

Luciora, thanks for comparing my map. I've got to 97.5 from your suggestions and I've still got a few locations that you've suggested to visit.
This title is particularly special for me as it will also mean I'll have hit Kind of a Big deal too (Protector of Tyria, Cantha, Elona, Spearmarshal (9) and GMC Tyria hopefully!), so I'm kinda interested to press on with this and finish it sooner rather than later.
I may need to post another map when I'm a little closer for another inspection to confirm where I need to go for the final push for the title. =)

Whenever you think you've hit a wall feel free to post a new map. We're here to help.
I totally agree, the last 2-3% were the worst. But out of all three I would say Cantha was the hardest simply because a map comparison didn't work. I hated flipping back and forth between maps.

Okay, I think I'll take you up on that Wobrak.
I've been working my cartography tonight and I've reached 99.3 so I'm into the final stages. If someone would like to take another look at my map and confirm where I can go to pick up these final few percent that'd be great.

Still have a few nice areas that I can see (Just outside The Falls, Lions Arch). Also you still need the bit there by Ruins of Surmia, easiest to do this is to use Necrotic traversal. By the bridge that you walk under just before the mission timer starts there is a group of 3 or 4 guys. One of them is a boss. Lure atleast one of them under the bridge and kill him there. Then use NT to get onto the bridge. No timers Run down back to missions start and you'll come across a horde of charr, you can find a hiding spot to avoid them, easier than killing em. then just continue down till you find a path to your right, follow that path and you'll have found the cloud you need to uncover
After that, it is wall hugging unfortunately

Hello everyone.
After completed Cantha and Elona, i am now looking to get the 100% cartographer for Tyria.
I see most of you doing comparisons from 1024x768; but i was wondering if someone has a full tyria made with U map, like livingston did for the two other extensions ?
If so; i would be interested in looking at it, before asking help here for getting my last %ages... !!!
Thanks in advance

Hmm, thanks for the comparison.
Pretty disappointed that there are still areas in Lornar's Pass; me and a guildie headed out there with our heroes and cleared out the entire area. It didn't seem at the time that I could get any closer to that wall on the right there. Guess I'll have to return and check.
Also I was trying to clear that piece of fog near The Frost Gate mission yesterday to no real avail, as well as that tiny piece just in/outside Droknar's Forge. That seems to be part of the old PvP arenas that I can't seem to uncover with wall hugging the inner wall in Droks itself.
Lastly, could someone confirm the area I need to uncover in Ruins of Surmia. I don't recall any mission timers occur in that mission where you talk about transversing up onto the bridge.
Just need a little clarification on those, then I'll probably be heading out this evening to finish the job hopefully!
Thanks for all the help so far, you've really helped progress this faster.

erm I'm thinking of the wrong mission
Ruins of surmia is the one where you need to walk up from the temple (where you kill the embers) around the lake there.
I'll look at the other spots a bit later to just orient myself and see if i can give some hints.

Guys, it's ok. I did it! Cleaned up a bit as per what was marked, then headed and uncovered the large area skipped in Hell's Precipice for 0.2% to complete.
