Treasure Cartography Overview

Treasure Cartography has you creating maps and running around to find buried treasure. Map creation relies on "rumors", found mainly from the mysterious statues in Eltibule. Another source of treasure rumors can be to dig up graves in Eltibule with a shovel, or to buy the rumors from vendors like Hulon.

In-Game Description

Experience creating maps from old clues. The maps can lead to treasure... or tragedy.

Eltibule Treasure Cartography Mechanics

Eltibule's Weird Statues

There are 8 statues around Eltibule. You can sacrifice at least two categories of items per statue per moon phase, for a total of 16 successful sacrifices in a phase. Moon phases are tied to real life moon phases (GMT time zone).

The primary, or first, statue (gem/drug statue) is the starting point, and the statues want specific things rotating clockwise from there. Sacrificing the wrong type of item returns nothing, while sacrificing the correct type returns a map. Sacrificing a moonstone to the wrong statue will return the moonstone instead of consuming it, making this a good way to find the first statue. The first statue is also the entrance to the Dark Chapel.

The first (gem/drugs) statue is 1. 2 is the next statue going clockwise, and so on.

Position	1st Sacrifice	2nd Sacrifice
1	Gems	Drugs
2	Mushrooms	Animal Parts
3	Fish	Wood
4	Bones	Vegetable Seeds (including Cotton)
5	Potions	Flower Seeds
6	Flower	Jewelry (Rings/Amulets)
7	Fruits	Skulls
8	Recipes	Vegetables (Grown)

Each statue yields a specific type/quality of map. Statues 1 & 5 give small maps, 2 & 6 give large, 3 & 7 give vast, 4 & 8 give incredible. Maps made with Small/Large usually give random junk, Vast gives 3 items, and Incredible gives 5, with a chance to fail based on map quality/your skill. Occasionally, a Vast or Incredible rumour will dig up a named boss monster, Olugax The Ever-Pudding. Lower-tiers will also sometimes produce Slimes.

Sacrifices are single items..sacrificing a stack will only sacrifice a single item and return the rest to you. The quality of the item doesn't effect results.

Treasure

Treasure is seemingly random, often consisting of gems, recipe scrolls, skill books, or equipment. Level of equipment is determined by the wealth level of the rumor:
