-aurios mines, enter the mission and go to the spot where the opposite team starts, theres a tiny spot you can uncover there (in the rather small area, youll see when you notice the gates) Anyway, at 99,2% now, so any additional tips would be very much appreciated!

You're missing:
-parts of the "mountain spot" west of Tsumei Village;
-SW corner of Zen Daijun (accessible through Unwelcome Guest quest only);
-east wall of Haiju Lagoon;
-east wall of Vizunah Square mission;
-north wall of Imperial Sanctum (Shiro's banishment area);
-east wall of Shenzun Tunnels;
-all of Altrumm Ruins mission;
-north wall of Ferndale;
-NE corner of Fort Aspenwood battle area (Luxon side);
-west wall of Jade Quarry battle area;
-SW corner of Saint Anjeka's Shrine outpost (behind henchies);
-SW corner of the Eternal Grove explorable;
-NE corner of Morostav Trail;
-NE corner of Mourning Veil Falls;
-east wall of Archipelagos;
-north wall of Rhea's Crater.
I'm guessing part of the problem you're having is the fact that you've turned up your brightness. The ALT+TAB comparison to Leighwyn's map was hurting my eyes and making it hard to concentrate on the minor changes because of the glaring layer of whiteness that covers your map when compared to his. I'd suggest turning your brightness back down at least until you get the title. I may have missed some spots because of this.
EDIT: Didn't see your last two posts because they showed up on the new page. Ignore all parts of the above that are no longer relevant.

I second this. Thanks to Leighwyn's tehcnique and Shyft's advices (I just look the places that most people miss), I have been able to get 100% on my Assassin and 99.8% on my Ritualist. Thank you to both of you
I need help, though, to find those last 0.2% with my Ritualist. If someone could help me...I did a bit of Frankstein with my map (I glued almost everything together, but it looks horrible : P), and here it is:
(It's not at the same size of the one posted here - I zoomed my map to 112% and then they would have the same size.)
And Pyro, about the 100% unfogged map, I have sent it to a friend (who, unlike me, has a scanner), he will send me the images anytime now. I'll show you them when they arrive.

In the case of Unwelcome Guest, make sure to take a hench or two for support, just in case the Canthans are not interested in mapping locked areas after completing their 15 attribute point quest. Chances are you'll have to get henchies, unless you happen upon a 5/6 team waiting for a 6th. All you really need is a single Canthan with the right quest to talk to the NPC, so if you're not keen on waiting you could just grab 4 henchies and start off as soon as you find the one guinea PUG

I'll show you them when they arrive. Thanks. Your friend could actually save time by uploading the image to a mass download site like megaupload.com in case there is greater demand for the file. It's guaranteed to stay up for 21 days even without any downloads (as opposed to being deleted in 7 days if you use yousendit.com) and doesn't count against a download limit the way RapidShare does.

The reason your map looks like a quilt is because you're taking "clean" screenshots of it instead of using the "U" window. The difference in coloration is due to cloud cover, and I encountered the same thing when trying to stitch together my complete map of Tyria. You should switch to comparing Leighwyn's map to your "U" window as he recommends, or to screenshots of your "U" window if your PC can't handle ALT+TAB into an active GW.
I'll give it a shot, but I might miss some spots because of the above. You're still missing: -parts of the "mountain spot" west of Tsumei Village; -SE corner of Haiju Lagoon; -east wall of Haiju Lagoon; -north wall of Jaya Bluffs; -north wall of Raisu Palace; -NW corner of Shenzun Tunnels; -the "farmland" east of Maatu Keep? (obscured by cloud shadow); -NW corner of Sunjiang District explorable; -east wall of Archipelagos; -SW corner of Melandru's Hope. My eyes may hurt, but the promise of a truly fully uncovered map of Cantha is worth it ![]() Erasculio

Ok... i hope that this time my maps will be good... sry for other times. meanwhile i fund only a 0.1%, unlocking last part of Shiro banished lands and a small fog in rhea crater. now i'm at 99.8%, hope that some1 can give help for this title

Your screenshots of Shing Jea #1, 2, 4; City #5; Sea #6 and Forest #1 are refusing to load for me altogether, so you might be missing something there as well. ok, got some questions though. when i first posted my maps somewhere at 97%, you mentioned Haiju already, and i cleared a spot there, now again..where exactly is it? is it at the beach a bit up or just at the gate? since i cant seem to get anything there :/ <----------------- got that one now, silly me >< about T. Temple explorable..the WHOLE part of the east and west walls, or only those where the brotherhood is? since i did the 'hard' part earlier the day, spent ages wallhugging there, and thought it was complete. just did the bottom one and got nothing.. think i got the spot from Zin Ku outpost, but isnt it the same from Sunjiang explorable? since i cant figure out whats missing there. :s checked the whole wall in ferndale, got nothing, no changes on the map. started from the aspenwood gate, went down to HZH and went back to the gate. then, you mentioned pongmei valley..im quite confused there, since you named the name of the waterfall, but i cant find a shield of it? is it where arraassh (sp?) mountainclub is, or was that a typo (with all those mean names) and you meant Penjiang Pensinblabla on shing jae? i remember a waterfall there and the name sounds like its from there. so far i only got spots from the Aspenwood gate and from Boreas outpost. still have to check the others i didnt list above :/ i think this title hates me, lol. its getting real mean in the end :P sorry for all the questions, but its quite confusing. and odd that the links dont work, all are fine for me. :S *goes back to checking points* still 0.8 to go ^^ Shyft the Pyro

To get to Shiro's banishment area, what you should do is find a "banishment buddy" - someone who also needs the area for the cartography title. Then, the two of you should go into the mission with one person switching armor to lower HP total than the other's. The person with lower HP should get banished first, and to reverse the order just make sure to reverse the HP totals between the two characters. Make sure to bring a running skill of some sort so that if your partner is banished you can lose both Shiro's and the bound boss's aggro. Snares and all-out defensive skills like Mist Form and Shadow Form help immensely.
To get to the specific spot you're missing, you should hug the north edge of the cliff inside Shiro's banishment area. Make sure to bring some way of healing yourself so that the lone spirit at the very start of the banishment path doesn't kill you. Other than the above, you're still missing: -NW corner and north wall of Minister Cho's Estate explorable; -NW corner of Kinya Province; -SW corner of Panjiang Peninsula; -north wall of Jaya Bluffs; -east wall of Haiju Lagoon; -north wall of Raisu Palace explorable; -east wall of Nahpui Quarter mission; -east wall of Dragon's Throat outpost (uncover from outside the outpost); -NE corner of Tahnnakai Temple explorable; -NW corner of Shenzun Tunnels; -a spot SW of Zin Ku Corridor (uncover from inside the outpost); -SE corner of Nahpui Quarter mission; -south wall of Shenzun Tunnels; -the "farmland" east of Maatu Keep; -north wall of Boreas Seabed outpost; -north wall and NE corner of Arborstone explorable; -north wall of Ferndale; -west wall of Kurzick Aspenwood Gate outpost; -SE and NE corners of Aspenwood Gate battle area; -SW, NW and NE corners of Jade Quarry battle area; -SW corner of Saint Anjeka's Shrine outpost (behind henchies); -east wall of Melandru's Hope; -SW corner of Drazach Thicket; -north wall of Morostav Trail; -NW corner of Unwaking Waters explorable; -SW and NE corners of Mourning Veil Falls; -SE corner of Kurzick Unwaking Waters outpost; -south wall of Archipelagos; -SW and NE corners of Maishang Hills. Since you have the Monastery Overlook open, you don't need to uncover all of the above to get the title. On a side note, how did you uncover the spot NW of Saint Anjeka's Shrine? It doesn't show on Leighwyn's map, which is why I'm asking Sergor

Thank you very much for getting the map scanned and uploading a stitched version of it. It's neither current nor complete (see south of Panjiang Peninsula and west of Shenzun Tunnels) but it provides a rare look into Factions during the development stages, when the city icons still looked like their Tyrian counterparts.
It would have been nice if they kept all the banishment portals functional, however

Upto 99.7% here. Just explored Vizunah and hugged it entirely for 0.2%. I'm still lost with this 0.3% though. Where are places that are missed easily? And yes i have the banishment area with Shiro.

Can't really say without looking at your specific map because the last 1% is usually minute spots in multiple zones rather than all clumped together in one. Shiro's banishment area, along with the edges of Fort Aspenwood and Jade Quarry battle areas spring to mind as the most frequently and consistently unexplored things; other than that, it's just bits and pieces like the NW corner of the "top" level of Arborstone, the "farmland" spot east of Maatu Keep, or the spot SW of Zin Ku Corridor that has to be cleared from inside the outpost.
I don't believe you can make it to 100% without using Leighwyn's ALT+TAB method to compare maps unless you'd like to wallhug each and every area not knowing which ones you really need. So what I suggest is that you try it yourself, or post screenshots of your "U" window so others can compare them for you.
