You're also missing large chunks of ascalon on east side. It's not exhaustive and some squares are bigger that necessary, but it's a good start.

Ok I got up to 99.4% now, and I need help finding some more spots. I know I am missing part of dunes, but I don't think thats enough to give me the rest I need.

Ive been looking at quite a few 100% maps and I'm stumped, especially because Ive seen a few that seem to have less cleared then me so any help is much appreciated.

Edit: I did dunes and I am at 99.6 percent now. still need help with he rest of the map

Here's a comparison for ya.

Vos16
To give you a better comparison a map bigger than 800x600 is needed. I tried the link in your second post but it requires logon creditials. Please submit a map at 1024x768 or larger. Use the attachment option here on these forums.

Tempy
Your map is at non-standard resolutions (800x567). Please retake map screenshots using one of the following resolutions; 1024x768 or 1280x1024 or 1600x1200. Then post your new map here using the attachment option here on these forums.

I got up to 99.9% over the weekend, with what i could see in the shiverpeak area, but totally ran out of ideas. I got your file today and ran down after dinner and saw one little spot in the Riverside town, ran down to the water, and BOOM! I'm done mapping for a long time, but I love my new title. Thanks so much Wobrak, I have no idea how you were able to ID so many other places, but you are a lifesaver. Thanks to everybody on the board for all their tips and ideas.

Im only on about 75% after finishing the game. Im probably going to try for this title soon though, so could anyone reccomend the fastest way to try and get it with an ele? I dont know if they can run so my friend said just take heros and clear all the enemies but that would take quite a while. Any advice would be appreciated.

Edit: Thanks for the advice Wobrak, ill give it a go.

The map you attached will not work. Did you stretch it out to 1280x1024? Your map does not line up at all. I'm unable to give you any type of comparison. Look at the attachment of your map when I attempt a comparison. Nothing lines up.

Vos16
Here's a comparison for ya. The red circled areas require further exploration.

Drach'nyen
I recommend that you use the heros/henchies to clear and fully explore each area. When I was exploring for this title I ran most of the areas and when it came down to the last 2% I was forced to revisit areas because I missed a little edge here or little nook there. So do yourself a favor take it slow when you explore. No need to rush, the title will wait for you.

I'm aware of one area I need to try and do but not sure how to do it...the very eastern bit of Aurora Glade. How do you get to that bit before the mission fails? Do I need to put speedy shoes on, or actually do the mission (but doesn't it finish when the last crystal is put on? I've always hated that mission...)?

Anyway, here's my map at 1280x1024...thanks in advance! If you do the mission and bonus for Aurora, you should have all the time in the world to explore the area after killing the demogue. Easiest way to complete bonus is to camp the middle crystal path and kill each and every enemy runner that comes for the middle crystal. With henchies it was easy, and heros make it like presearing. Good luck.

Good luck. Ah, thanks will give it a go. I tried yesterday to just push past but instantly failed the mission - it's been about 10 months since I did that one, I've avoided it with all my other characters!
Heroes are my friends, so will take them along

99.6 as of this screenshot:

(is this res ok?) bigger is prolly better...

I doubt i'll get .1 out of the spot south east of warcamp, let alone .4; spot any foggy areas left behind?

also: do the clouds/shadow interfere with your comparisons at all?

thanks for the help so far; almost thar; yuo can do it!

Firts I'd like to say thx to Wobrak for the comparison, secondly I'd like to request another one due to my progress and to see clear. I tryed to explore Ice Caves of Sorrow and Borlis Pass areas as indicated but none of them revealed. I've done Dunes THK Iron Mines of M. Sanctum Cay Aurora Glade and the bit in Silverwood, the area near Port Sledge and the portal area of Grenth's Footprint to Sorrow's Furnace and Gates of Kryta (beneath the little house at the beginning and the coast) and i tryed to get to the foggy area in Spearhead Peak in the northeast "corner" but couldn't go close enough to get it defoged. I'd also be very glad if U could write me how to explore these areas what i couldn't as mentioned above. I also don't know how to explore the southernmost area of LA where the watchtower is. Thx in advance.

PS: The map is in 1280x1024
