There are a few bonuses that come from other skills that can boost Cartography. Due to Cartography's 5s Base Interval, it's advised to grab as many of the Interval and Survey reductions as possible to minimize the amount of time you spend surveying. The {{ItemIcon|Superior Cartography Skillcape}} gives <span style="color:green">-30% Survey Interval</span> which makes Skill XP boosts very valuable if you wish to go for full map mastery since this will reduce the time it takes to reach level 120.
There are a many bonuses that come from other skills and shop-purchases that can significantly boost Cartography. The base interval for Cartography is 5 seconds which can be reduced with various unlocks shown at the end of this guide. Further, without collecting any of the Cartography XP boosts it is unlikely that you will have sufficient skill to completely unlock the map. It is therefore strongly advised to grab as many of the Survey Interval reduction and XP boosts as possible to minimize the amount of time you spend surveying and also give you the best chance of exploring all tiles on the map.

For this step, it's crucial to be adequately prepared. Once initiated, you'll find yourself committed and unable to switch to other activities seamlessly. The Auto Survey action extends beyond your current visibility range, disregarding any enhancements you've uncovered. Therefore, it's essential to carefully consider any ongoing costs, such as those related to the Township, as there will be limited opportunities for earning fresh income during this process. Additionally, attempting to reveal the full map without following the outlined steps is not recommended. You may encounter difficulties fully exploring the map due to levelling requirements.
