Cartography
Draw maps and decode treasure maps. Only the decoder can dig.
Overview
Cartography is the treasure hunter's skill. Every treasure map must be decoded before anyone can dig it up.
What It Does
- Decoding minimums: level 1 anyone can try, level 2 at 41, level 3 at 51, level 4 at 61, levels 5 and 6 at 70, level 7 at 100.
- Only the character who decoded the map (or someone with the skill) can dig its chest.
- Craft local, city, sea and world maps from blank maps between 10 and 99.5 skill. Tattered wall maps at 90 use completed treasure maps.
On Perilous Legends
- The Treasure Hunter Quartermaster has 25 treasure map and message-in-a-bottle quests. The Treasure Map Tome (Perilous Vendor) stores maps.
- Dungeon and treasure chests are filled with the shard's loot system and always hold at least one magic item.
Training It
Decode maps and draw the higher map types. Mapmakers teach it. Champion power scrolls take it to 120.
