Guide : Cartography

[Purge]

Maps, 5g a piece sell back to vendor for 2-3 depending on stock/what map.

50-62 city maps
62-68 sea maps
68-99.5 world maps
99.5 - GM lvl 3-5 Tmaps!

I used around 20k gold to get to 99 on mine, I didn't sell back very many. Took a good 15 hours of macroing.

This skill can be used while hidden. (bug? maybe? hope not... )

I am looking to making a T-Hunter char. I am wondering what skills to use for him.

I have created a bard for my first char. and i was thinking of making him part T-Hunter with the skills as follows:

-Musicianship
-Provoking
-Magery
-Resist
-Meditation
-Lock Picking
-Cartography

*also with a little mining bcause i read somewhere it helps.

I also wanted to know once you GM cartography do you make T-Maps one at a time then go hunt for them, or can you make multiple maps and save them for later?

I haven't ever made a Treasure Hunter before and thought it would be fun to do.

You can not "make" treasure maps.
Treasure maps come as monster loot.

Pretty much the same as my temp except I opted for hiding over resist... EV's and provo work fine for me

That is the template I used on OSI and also here on Second Age. Its been great so far. The main reason I have resist is because I raised it with magery and so far I like it. Helps with gank evasion....if only I could work in more wrestling...

[Dashiva]

I was under the impression that detect hidden was required on L4s or L5s.

I also use the same template and it has worked great. Level 5s are a little rough because of daemons getting mass dispelled, but its not too bad and not much you can do about that unless you have a tamer.

As for cartography, I made world maps all the way from 50-99.5, but I didn't keep track of how much gold it cost me.

[a Red Eminem]

What exactly are EV's? I cannot remember what that stood for. I was wondering also about the detect hidden skill being needed for lvl 5 T-Maps.

When you guys for hunt for treasure, do you go in a group, or is this something your able to do on your own?

Detect hidden is needed if you use remove trap.

Not sure how the t maps work here as I havent done any yet,Ill let you know in a couple days as Im working my last skill,cartography,right now...

I have a remove trap t hunter,no magery.

[a Red Eminem]

Does anyone else have a different template for a Treasure Hunter?

Give some ideas on a Treasure Hunter template that you think would be good.

[elsternj]

i was thinking about using your same template but keeping eval instead of resist? thoughts?

[a Red Eminem]

Your going to need Resist, You wont need eval, because your main fighting skill isint magery, it's provoke.

[elsternj]

do you get off better heals and cures with more eval though? or is it strictly for increase in damage? i have eval and resist on my bard now i was going to drop 1 of those and wrestling for carto and lockpicking.

[a Red Eminem]

I'm not sure about the heals, so I wont answer that, but if your going to have a bard/t-hunter like me, I think my template is the best to go with. I have as follows:

-Magery
-Meditation
-Musicianship
-Provoking
-Resist
-Cartography
-Lockpicking

I sometimes wonder if I'd of had cartography on another character then replace it with hiding, because sometimes you die, and are left with no regs, so you better have a newbie instrument to provoke the remaining monsters, or hiding.
