This way you don’t have to worry about them noticing you before you can react. If you want to set up some safety precautions I suggest casting invisibility on yourself, or have someone cast it on you. The problem most people run into with this is that after the treasure chest appears and all these monsters, the lag is so bad that you have nearly no time to react. Must be within 4 tiles from treasure chestīut things aren’t always as simple as we would hope, and sure enough the second you dig up the precious treasure four guardian creatures are going to spawn with the desire to kill the first thing they see. Must be within 3 tiles from treasure chest Must be within 2 tiles from treasure chest
Must be within 1 tile from treasure chest Mining skill makes it so you don’t have to be directly over the chest to dig it up, see table as follows: Mining
Once you have found where your treasure chest is, having some skill in mining will help you a lot here. Make sure you have more than 1 lock pick, because they like to break frequently. You need to pick up either a shovel or pickaxe to dig up the chest, and some lock picks and hope you have the sufficient lock picking skill to unlock the chest. * Normally liches carry level 3 but they may rarely spawn a level 1 mapĪfter you have decoded your first treasure map and have its coordinates its time to go get that treasure.

There are a bunch of different monsters in the world that carry around treasure maps. In order to decode a treasure map, first you have to find one. The following chart shows the minimum skill you need in order to decode the treasure maps and unlock the chest: Level And, you also then get to go dig up treasure chest! Each time you decode a treasure map level 2 through 4 there is a chance you will gain skill. After a while you are upgraded from making maps to reading them. SkillĪs the chart shows, just drawing maps will not take you that far when it comes to Cartography. Don’t throw them out after you make them because you can sell them back to the NPC shipwright for gold. There are four kinds of maps you can draw: Local, City, Sea Chart, and World Map. I recommend using blank scrolls because they are much cheaper, and since they will stack in your bag you can carry more of them at one time. Next is buying a lot of blank scrolls in any mage shop or blank maps from the shipwright who is usually where a lot of the NPC mapmakers hang out. The first step in Cartography training is buying a mapmaker’s pen from a NPC mapmaker (or another player with a high tinkering skill can make one for you).
Pretty much the way you raise this skill is just by drawing maps over and over again. Like most skills, it gains up fast and steady in the beginning but it crawls down to near halt when you get high up there. It isn’t a very fun skill to train in but the ends do justify the means. The skill allows you to decode treasure maps found on monsters, and then use them to dig up the treasure. Cartography is the skill you must know if you want to be a treasure hunter.
