ok 1 more hint it is on an island, that just like me, you have most likely visited many times but never really "explored" because your purpose there was mainly for results...

I suspect that you stumped everyone. I know that *I* for one don't have any idea...
(Was gonna say I don't have a clue but I believe I have 3 clues)

Yes Excel, To the left just as you enter Isle of the Nameless. Just one of those spots overlooked in a very common place. I told Xaja this would no doubt be a hard one

So where am I? (not hax, just a feature) I'm confused. Do these places actually appear this way or is your video card hosed?

they are BWE pics, Shift + F12 but that isn't supported anymore. They are just a wireframe pics. Anyway that's two hints, they orginate from a BWE and the layout of the second picture has changed a bit since then. Here are two other pictures of wireframe + basic colour. 1st, ~180 degree turn. 2nd BTW I'll be away for a week so I can't give any more clues during that if you don't already figure it out. First picture isn't that hard. OK one more hint, big fire in pic #2, that was the old version of the location

actually if you look at the first big music video Asya did I think that place (without the wiring) is featured.

Well, Excel I'm glad you said that they removed the feature. I do remember it from the betas and spent about 15 minutes trying to get it activated to verify my guesses. True story. I decided to test out all the function keys to see if it was still there. F1-F12, then shift F1-F12, then ctl F1-F12, then alt F1-... oops!
Since they removed the feature before release, that rules out any Cantha spots.
The first one was pretty easy. LA (check the fountain). Number 2 took a minute until I read "the big fire". Inda is on track, AC post-searing.
Excel, I've heard rumors that 'back in the day' you used to play HoH in wireframe just to give the other teams a fighting chance.

Hasn't been much activity here lately. Let's see if we can kick things off again... This one should be easy.

Zen Daijun or what it's called, the second mission on the island.

Zen Daijun or what it's called, the second mission on the island. That is not it either. Getting closer though...

Wasn't that in the Zaishen Elite mission?

Wasn't that in the Zaishen Elite mission? Nope. I guess this isn't as easy as I would have thought. I'm tempted to give a clue but I'm afraid that any clue would give it away entirely. How about an expansion of the clue I already gave. This scene was capped on the Training Isle in Cantha. It's also at some point prior to Zen Daijun.

The amazing part is that every single canthan character sees this, no matter how far they get in the game. It's a view from the Monastery Overlook; the place your new character start at.
Anyone else want to try one while I try to find something easier?

I can honestly say that I have no idea where any of those are.

The first two are the isle of the dead guild hall Third one not sure but maybe Druids Overlook or Henge of Denravi Fourth one Kaineng Docks Last one... I'm gonna go with Bukdek Byway.

I don't think the first two are isle of the dead, as there are kurzick henchies with him. It is probably the arborstone explorable area down where the alter to nothing is located.

Wow, Asya, you really have explored the entire game. Yup, they're way at the far end of the explorable map of Arborstone and then down a staircase.
As for the other pictures, I dont think it would be any Tyrian landscapes as my Ritualist hasnt been there yet.

Since this thread seems to have died again I'll add some more pictures of where I've been. Where is this place?

Don't remember the name of the map. The fallen statue of the female warrior upon which you finish your first 15 attribute quest.

Could you store a larger picture on imageshack? It's hard to make out the henchies in that iPod photo. Quint, I don't think it is the Arid Sea, as it looks like he has Kurzick henchies with him.

Quint, I don't think it is the Arid Sea, as it looks like he has Kurzick henchies with him. Plus the sky is wrong. The arid sea has a mostly bright clear sky. That one is overcast and looks like it's about to seriously storm...

That should be a fairly larger version for you all I'll leave another day or two to guess before I start adding clues
