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.

Sun Vale Treasure Cartography Mechanics

Sun Vale's Old Statues

When you squint, you realize there are symbols faintly etched into this statue. Underneath each symbol is a little hole just large enough to fit a piece of glass. Near the symbols is a word in old Goblinese.

— Old Statue

Spread out across the Sun Vale region are twelve Old Statues. Some of the statues are on land, while others are underwater. Every day, three of the twelve statues are active. Active statues offer color puzzles based on placing pieces of glass into slots in the statues. Solved statues will reward Sun Vale Treasure Rumors. A statue with 2 slots rewards Small Treasure Rumors while 5 slot statues reward Incredible Wealth Rumors. Once a Sun Vale Treasure Rumor is obtained, you can learn a recipe to use it from Preta

Completed Treasure Cartography Rumors in Sun Vale often reward 2-3 pieces of equipment.

  • Small Treasure Rumors - Level 30 Equipment
  • Large & Vast Treasure Rumors - Level 30-35 Equipment
  • Incredible Wealth Treasure Rumors - Level 40 Equipment

Active Statue Identification

The twelve statues are split into four visual designs. Each day, one of the statue designs is active. The four-day rotation matches the Red Wing Casino Daily Dungeon rotation, so the community has labeled the statue groups by Casino Dungeon Names. Sun Vale Statue Map.jpg

Solving Sun Vale Statue Slots

There are eight colors of Pieces of Glass that can be used in the Old Statue puzzles. A common source for Pieces of Glass is the Cashfall game in the Red Wing Casino. The goal in solving the puzzles is to change all slots to the color that is given by the statue in Goblinese (requires Level 20 to read properly).

(1) (2)
(3) (4)
(5) (6)
(7) (8)

Click Expand to show a way to solve the puzzle

When you insert a piece of glass into a slot, you add that color (number) to the slot color. When a slot reaches black, the slot to the left is also advanced by 1, so you should start solving from the last slot.

Solving is just a matter of simple math, you have a displayed number D and the target number T that you want to reach. If D < T you just add the difference. If T < D you increase T by 8 and then add the difference.

A few examples:

  • Slot is (1) red, you insert (3) yellow, it will reach (4) green.
  • Slot is (8) black, you add (2) orange, it will reach (2) orange.
  • Slot is (7) white, you add (4) green, it will reach (3) yellow and change the slot to the left by 1.
  • Slot is (5) blue, you add (8) black, it will reach (5) blue and change the slot to the left by 1.
