Leighwyn: Small request, could you please upload your current map in 1024x768 (zoomed-out)? I'm aiming for 100% - or whatever the highest a Tyrian can get - and I could use your help. Thanks.

Here you go, LuxA...but I've got to warn you that they don't seem to be as useful as in Tyria.

1024x768

1280x1024

Both of these maps are using the latest I've uncovered, 99.6% after the Imperial Sanctum banishment was done last night.

That's the Altrumm Ruins competitive mission area, just enter it (it's npc-based, no party woes like Jade ) and explore.

Yay! My Tyrian Character now has 99.7% of Cantha explored! Okay I got the floating island part explored, now for the banished point.

Up to 99.8%, thanks to an assist from Evil_Greven. After you get that banishment point, I'm guessing you will gain another tenth as well. And we'll be stuck once more

Anyway TY for the pointer :-)) That added another 0.3% so I am now at 98.3%.

Another question on the Jade Quarry. Does the mission have to have FULL parties on each side, or does it fill empty slots with NPCs as long as there is one real player on each side?

If this needs full parties on both side then I am never going to get this, as the place is simply dead on both the Luxon and Kurzick sides. Perhaps they should open this area up just for exploration a there is never anyone here playing the mission!

Cheers!

I'm not sure if they will, but they're all involving Vizunah (my least favorite thing in any video game) so I haven't checked them out yet

Leighwyn, could you please post a hi rez map of your 99.8%? Your mapping abilities are truely something to behold! I just really am not a fan of the zoomed out maps. Much harder to use in my opinion.

I finally reached 99.8%. I'll have to compare the rest of my map to Leighwyn's to see if there's any other places I'm missing.

I am still lagging behind you guys! LOL

I reached 99.1% this afternoon after finally getting into the Jade Quarry, and cleared a few other areas I knew I was missing. I know I am missing the whole eastern edge of the Vizunah Square mission, and the Vizunah Square (Local Quarter) area, but other than that I am so stuck!

This is harder in its own way than the Tyrian map was!

I dont know about you guys, but I find the square edges annoying beyond belief! Also the way there is not always a clearly defined edge to the map and the fact that the texture of the area off the map makes is very hard to see the real edge.

Edit:

I just cleared the eastern edge of Vizunah Square (got a masters reward too) and found a couple of stray pixels elsewhere, and am now up to 99.5%

Pre-Searing doesn't count towards % Tyria explored... so yes you can still get your Grandmaster Cartographer

I'm stumped, how do I unveil this part of the map? To the left is my map, to the right is the 100% map. I've traced along the border many times, clockwise and anti-clockwise, never clearing that bit of fog in the middle. I've hugged the walls of all three adjacent outposts, to no avail. Please help me before I go crazy.
