After playing through the main quest line on my first character I created an explorer character to try and find all the locations in the world without taking the Level 20 perk. I'm up over 160 locations now and I was wondering if anyone knew the actual total of discoverable locations.

Isn't it 187?

Thank you. Gives me something to aim for.

I'm up to 195 (with the last battle to go). Anybody have a firm number on this?

The Wiki lists 242 separate and discrete locations.

Not all locations will display a map marker.
