Analyzing the land to locate valuable resources or important locations. Surveying has many uses, but is most commonly used to make resource maps for Geology and Mining.

Surveying is a skill that produces surveys that lead to gems and minerals. Creating surveys increases the surveying skill, while using the surveys increases geology (mineral surveys) and mining (mining surveys).

Surveys come in several types:

  • Mining Surveys are linked to the Mining skill and lead to metals such as Metal Slabs
  • Crystal Surveys are linked to the Geology skill and lead to Redwall Crystals
  • Mineral Surveys are linked to the Geology skill and lead to gems such as Quartz and Agate

Using a Map

Right click a survey in your inventory and a little red spot will blink on the minimap (it can be difficult to see if it is on a bright area, it seems to blend in). An on screen message will also give you approximate distances, though it is less practical.

A common technique for running multiple surveys is to sort the maps by the "quadrant" they're in on the map, and then run through each quadrant!
