New POI Somewhere?
There are areas in some maps that are not POIs, etc. but count toward map completion. Caves and such. You might want to google map completion. That’s where I found out I had missed something.

Im going to guess its the one in bloodtide coast, in the chantry of secrets, its the base for the orders of whispers, and if you haven’t done their storyline there is a good chance you have never been inside it, so go look there.
Nope, had that done ages ago even went back in there before posting here and it showed as being done
@misterman
Do you recall the area that you had missed and found?

Then I suggest you waypoint to every single map until u see the map that you are missing a POI on, and go from there.
Did you check Lion’s arch? There is a newish poi in the west, in the water.
There were a couple…a cave in Dredgehaunt (I think) that had to be done as part of an optional quest. Check: http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/User:Bluestone/Explorer

He isn’t missing a POI. He mentioned that. He’s probably missing a non-POI area in a map.
Oh, here’s something I found, from an older forum thread:
Did you get Forsaken Halls in Dredgehaunt Cliffs? Or DeMolish Post? Those were the two I needed to finish Shiverpeaks.

I think you will find he said he is missing a POI… read his post again.

This is also incorrect, areas do not count toward completion, only POI’s Vistas skillpoints and waypoints.

But a POI would be obvious. You hover over the name of every map area and it tells you if you got all the POIs etc. I had an issue where, if you check the achievement itself, I had 174 out of 175 areas for Shiverpeaks. But I had completed every area. It was the Forsaken Halls.

Getting 100% map complete is not the same as getting all areas of the map complete for the achievement. You can have 100% map complete and not have all areas discovered.
Brisban has a new POI in the SW corner, Divinity Reach has a new POI in the SE area, Kessex had a few changed with the Tower of Nightmares, Gendarran got a POI in the south were the JP is, LA reset one POI during the LS and added a second, Lornars Pass had one added near the marionette, Black Citadel got a new POI in the west I think.
Mouse over each map name in the world map to see which map it is that you’re missing one in. Don’t forget the cities.
I know OP said he did the chantry, but the one way inside doesn’t show on the main map as either visible or iirc as being counted for that area. There are 2 POIs involved with the chantry. One is visible. The other is way back inside the instance, is not visible and does not count toward Bloodtide.
If op shows 100% on all maps including WvW then it’s a strong possibility it’s the one in that instance.

6 world completes and I didn’t even know this was possible! nice tip.
No, I went in the forsaken halls and got nothing. still going through there atm but I don’t think i’ll find anything

No, this isn’t the case either I decided to try what you said and since I am in the whispers order on this toon I went through every bit of it when I did not get the 2 gifts of exploration. This is all I need to finish my legendary too….
I’ve found what I was missing. Apparently I did miss getting a solitary POI in Eternal thanks Astral Projections for that idea of checking WvW. Thank you all for helping me find what the problem was I very much appreciate all your help.
Have you gotten the underwater one in LA where the drill is?
I think there’s a new one in Brisban wildlands associated with the LS.
Also, explorer and map completion are not tied together 100%. There are many areas in zones that have no POI but are nonetheless zones which go towards the explorer achievement.
