Cartography

From UnCharted UO Wiki

Info

Cartography is used to create maps of your immediate surroundings, up to and including the entire world. It is an essential skill for those who wish to go treasure hunting. You require a Mapmaker's Pen in order to craft maps of your own.

NPC Mapmaker Vendors will sell you standard maps to draw on but you can also overwrite the pre-drawn copies they sell. Blank Scrolls can also be used to create maps.

Note that while Cartography is required to initially decode Treasure Maps (done by double clicking them, this removes the term "tattered" from their title), once this is done any character can read them.

Treasure

  • Cartography is not needed for digging up a decoded Treasure Map, but one must hit chest location accurately
  • Cartography replaces Mining bonus for digging up Treasure Map
    • 0 to 50.9 = 1 tile (must pick the precise location of chest)
    • 51 to 80.9 = 2 tiles radius
    • 81 to 99.9 = 3 tiles radius
    • 100 = 4 tiles radius
