| | |
| == Before Starting Cartography ==
| |
| 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 as well if you wish to go for full map mastery as well.
| |
| * {{ConstellationIcon|Nysa}}, unlocked at {{SkillReq|Astrology|45}}, provides upwards of <span style="color:green">+8% Skill XP</span> and <span style="color:green">-5% Survey Interval</span> at {{Icon|Mastery|Mastery Level 60|nolink=true}}.
| |
| * {{AgilityIcon|River Crossing}}, unlocked at {{SkillReq|Agility|10}} and requiring {{SkillReq|Cartography|15}}, provides <span style="color:green">-5% Survey Interval</span> and <span style="color:green">+5% Skill XP</span>.
| |
| * {{AgilityIcon|Ocean Drifting}}, unlocked at {{SkillReq|Agility|80}} and requiring {{SkillReq|Cartography|70}} and {{SkillReq|Archaeology|70}}, provides <span style="color:green">-5% Cartography Interval</span>.
| |
| | |
| Cartography has 8 '''Temporary''' <span style="color:green">-2% Survey Interval</span> Points of Interest that last for 10 moves. It's important that you know where these are located since they can only be discovered once. The locations can be seen in (TODO: Fix this)[[User:{{PAGENAME}}#Fully_Surveying_all_of_the_Temporary_POI_Hexes|second goal]].
| |
| | |
| You may want to gather the materials required to purchase all (TODO: Fix this)[[user:{{PAGENAME}}#Ship_Upgrades|Ship Upgrades]] Ship Upgrades from the {{Icon|Shop}} before starting. It is not necessary to do so however it may reduce the amount of times you need to swap obstacles.
| |
| | |
| == Training Cartography ==
| |
| Since Skill XP boosts will change the pathing of this guide. This guide will be using the following to setup. Note this is not the most optimal setup. Check the (TODO: Fix this)[[user:{{PAGENAME}}#XP|XP Table]] and (TODO: Fix this)[[user:{{PAGENAME}}#Interval|Interval Table]] below for other boosts.
| |
| * {{ConstellationIcon|Nysa|Nysa's}} Survey Interval at -3% and Skill XP at 6%
| |
| * {{AgilityIcon|Pit Jump}}, {{AgilityIcon|Tree Climb}} and {{AgilityIcon|A Lovely Jog}} will built for 12% Skill XP
| |
| * {{ItemIcon|Firemaking Skillcape}} and {{ItemIcon|Book of Scholars}} will be worn for 8% Skill XP
| |
| This gives a total of 26% Skill XP out of the maximum 54% in the Base Game and 57% with {{TotH}}.

| | |
| === Getting the {{ItemIcon|Old Spyglass}} and {{UpgradeIcon|Cartographer's Enhancement}} ===
| |
| [[File:CartographyGuide1-4.png|thumb|Visual Representation for Steps 1-4]]
| |
| An image has been supplied as a visual aid on where to go. The step numbers align with the numbered point on the map.
| |
| | |
| # Follow the Red Path Port at (12, 19) and Survey this hex until you are level 10. You will not fully survey the Port yet
| |
| #* Make sure to Discover {{POIIcon|Old Village}} at (13, 17)
| |
| #* If you Survey {{POIIcon|The Southern Lighthouse}} at (12, 18), make sure you do not Discover this POI. The temporary <span style="color:green">-2% Survey Interval</span> Discovery Reward will be used later
| |
| # Follow the Blue Path until you Discover {{POIIcon|Monuments}} at (6, 11)
| |
| #* Digging for Tiny Artefacts at {{POIIcon|Monuments}} will allow you to get {{ItemIcon|Golden Leaf|qty=8}} which can be upgraded into {{ItemIcon|Golden Wreath}} for <span style="color:green">+3% Skill XP</span>
| |
| #* Spending the extra time at {{POIIcon|Monuments}} to get {{ItemIcon|Aranite Brush|qty=5}} will increase your chances of getting the {{ItemIcon|Old Spyglass}} in the next step
| |
| #* Discovering {{POIIcon|The Monolith}} at (5, 10) can help reduce the map making interval which will be useful when upgrading the {{POIIcon|Coral Wreckage|nolink=true}} map
| |
| #* At {{SkillReq|Cartography|15}} you will be able to build {{AgilityIcon|River Crossing}}. At levels 20, 35, and 50 you will be able to purchase {{UpgradeIcon|Ship Hull Upgrade}}, {{UpgradeIcon|Ship Mast Upgrade}}, and {{UpgradeIcon|Ship Sails Upgrade}} respectively
| |
| # If you are not {{SkillReq|Cartography|50}}, skip this step and get the Shop Purchase in step 4. Follow the Green Path and Discover {{POIIcon|Coral Wreckage}} at (7, 22). This will unlock the ability to get {{ItemIcon|Old Spyglass}} and thus Archaeology will need to be done. You are mainly looking for 1-2 key items
| |
| ## The {{ItemIcon|Old Spyglass}} from {{POIIcon|Coral Wreckage|nolink=true}} for <span style="color:green">-10% Survey Interval</span>
| |
| ## If travel costs are an issue, you may also get {{ItemIcon|Sailor's Compass}} from Coral Wreckage for <span style="color:green">-6% Travel Costs</span>
| |
| #* It is recommended to upgrade the starting Coral Wreckage map to Perfect and, if you have the GP to do so, refine it to reduce the Medium Artefact Value to maximize the chance of getting the Old Spyglass
| |
| #* After obtaining the {{ItemIcon|Old Spyglass}}, you will want to Discover {{POIIcon|The Vibrant Coral Gardens}} at (6, 22) which rewards the {{ItemIcon|Coral|qty=500}} needed for {{AgilityIcon|Ocean Drifting}}, which will be built later
| |
| # Follow the Purple Path which will Discover {{POIIcon|The Jagged Labyrinth}} at (5, 7) and unlock the ability to purchase {{UpgradeIcon|Cartographer's Enhancement}} for {{GP|3000000}}. Upon reaching {{SkillReq|Cartography|60}}, you will be able to purchase {{UpgradeIcon|Ship Anchor Upgrade}}
| |
| #* The following POIs can be useful if you do not have the {{ItemIcon|Redwood Logs|qty=28000|nolink=true}} for {{UpgradeIcon|Ship Rudder Upgrade}} and {{UpgradeIcon|Ship Crow's Nest Upgrade}} or the {{ItemIcon|Cursed Logs|qty=12000|nolink=true}} for {{UpgradeIcon|Ship Keel Upgrade}}
| |
| #*# {{POIIcon|The Treacherous North}} located at (4, 9) which rewards {{ItemIcon|Redwood Logs|qty=5000|nolink=true}}
| |
| #*# {{POIIcon|The Ancient Wreckage}} located at (7, 7) which rewards {{ItemIcon|Cursed Logs|qty=1000|nolink=true}}
| |
| # Follow the Orange Path towards {{POIIcon|The Pirate's Treasure Trails}} at (10, 6) and Discover this hex. It is important this POI gets discovered before Surveying the entire map.
| |
| === Fully Surveying all of the Temporary POI Hexes ===
| |
| [[File:CartographyGuide5-10-min.png|thumb|Visual Representation for Steps 5-10]]
| |
| An image has been supplied as a visual aid on where to go. The step numbers align with the numbered point on the map.
| |
| | |
| '''Do not Discover''' the following POIs unless otherwise stated. The goal is to '''Survey''' them, not '''Discover''' them.
| |
| | |
| # Follow the Blue Path and '''Survey''' {{POIIcon|The Pink Kraken}} at (4, 16) and {{POIIcon|The Western Lighthouse}} at (1, 18)
| |
| #* The Port at (2, 19) can be '''Discovered''' which can help reduce the travel costs later
| |
| # Follow the Green Path and '''Survey''' {{POIIcon|The Southern Lighthouse}} at (12, 18), {{POIIcon|The Watchful Ship}} at (14, 20) and {{POIIcon|A Sadge Kraken}} at (12, 21)
| |
| #* The Port at (12, 19) can be '''Discovered''' which can help reduce the travel costs later
| |
| # The next POIs will be towards the South side of the map along the Purple Path. '''Survey''' {{POIIcon|The Sea Noodle}} at (23, 25). You will need to '''Discover''' {{POIIcon|Fisherman's Enclave}} at (22, 22) before Surveying the entire map
| |
| #* Along the path to {{POIIcon|Fisherman's Enclave|nolink=true}}, there is a Port that can be '''Discovered''' at (21, 20)
| |
| #* At {{SkillReq|Cartography|70}}, you will unlock the Shop Purchase {{UpgradeIcon|Ship Rudder Upgrade}} as well as the Agility Obstacle, {{AgilityIcon|Ocean Drifting}}. It is recommended you get both of these if possible
| |
| # Next up is the Orange Path. You will want to '''Discover''' both {{POIIcon|Old Mine}} at (23, 14) and {{POIIcon|The Abandoned Vein Mine}} at (22, 15). These POIs need to be Discovered before Surveying the entire map
| |
| # Along the Gray Path, '''Survey''' {{POIIcon|Capital City Lighthouse}} at (27, 13), and {{POIIcon|The Pushy Sailor}} at (29, 9)
| |
| #* The Port at (27, 14) can be '''Discovered''' which can help reduce the travel costs later. You may grab this before heading to {{POIIcon|The Pushy Sailor|nolink=true}}
| |
| | |
| === Fully Surveying the Map ===
| |
| Moving to {{POIIcon|The Edge of Darkness}} will cost around 50m GP. If you wish to cut this cost down, you can''' Survey ONE''' of the following 2 POIs then '''Survey''' {{POIIcon|The Shimmering Sands Outpost}} at (18, 15).
| |
| # {{POIIcon|Seashade Village}} at (7, 20) which is conveniently located above {{POIIcon|Coral Wreckage}}
| |
| # {{POIIcon|Rosedale}} at (27, 18). While this would take a bit longer, it's along the way to {{POIIcon|Bandit Hideout}} which is good if you plan to do some Thieving
| |
| When you are ready to get the interval POIs, Discover one of the first 2 POIs for <span style="color:green">-5% Cartography travel costs</span>, THEN Discover {{POIIcon|The Shimmering Sands Outpost|nolink=true}} for <span style="color:green">-10% Cartography travel costs</span>.
| |
| | |
| With all of the Temporary <span style="color:green">-2% Survey Interval</span> POIs fully Surveyed, it's time to Discover all of them without traveling to any unnecessary hexes in between. These boosts will only last for 10 moves and there are 8 POIs (+2 if you chose to decrease travel costs). Even though you have 2 spare moves, it is important you do not waste these. You will need to move once at {{SkillReq|Cartography|100}} and again after fully Surveying the North East corner. The order for the first 7 POIs is not important however you want to make sure you '''end on''' {{POIIcon|The Pushy Sailor}} at (29, 9).
| |
| | |
| Start Auto Surveying at (26, 8). This will require you to Survey (27, 9) and (27, 8) first. At {{SkillReq|Cartography|90}} you will want to restart the Auto Survey at (28, 12) so the Level 90 Hexes around (30, 16) get Surveyed. At {{SkillReq|Cartography|85}} {{UpgradeIcon|Ship Keel Upgrade}} can be purchased and at {{SkillReq|Cartography|99}} {{UpgradeIcon|Ship Crow's Nest Upgrade}} can be purchased.
| |
| | |
| Upon reaching {{SkillReq|Cartography|100}}, you want to manually Survey towards the East wall of the map then upwards, leaving the last hex so you can start Auto Surveying without moving. Ideally you want to be active here so you can immediately move when {{POIIcon|The Edge of Darkness}} at (31, 0) is fully surveyed. This will unlock the Shop Purchase, {{UpgradeIcon|Cartographer's Knowledge}} for {{GP|50000000}}. Traveling to this hex will also cost somewhere around 50m GP.
| |
| | |
| To reach level 120 you will have to move 2-3 more times to areas with higher exp. Hex experience is based on the level of the hex, therefore the best exp is in the high level areas [https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1149195171926376559/1154928653101183089/fullMap1x.png?ex=65eba520&is=65d93020&hm=4bdab0a37c9efc8a0fb90c403b52ccdbae4fa1113cf029a992e0de82cd6a48c8& This map] can help visualize where the high exp zones are.
| |
| # The first location you will want to move to is the snowy area in the bottom middle, around (17, 25) since this is a dense, compact area
| |
| #* Upon reaching {{SkillReq|Cartography|110}}, the final Ship Upgrade, {{UpgradeIcon|Ship Combat Overhaul}}, can be purchased
| |
| # The top middle is going to be the second location, around (12, 2) so you can grab the level 80 and 90 hexes to the East and West
| |
| # The last location will be the center of the map, around (16, 11) and start surveying the higher level hexes in the area, ignoring the level 35 hexes. You may utilize Auto Survey here
| |
| Upon reaching {{SkillReq|Cartography|120}}, you will want to purchase and equip the {{ItemIcon|Superior Cartography Skillcape}} then Auto Survey until all 944 hexes have been Mastered.
