Cartography is the skill in Ultima Online which basically determines how well someone can work with maps. The skill does not only involve the creation of said maps, but also the decoding of treasure maps, which can lead to great wealth. Without this skill, the latter will be unreadably and therefore useless. Maps can only be drawn on Trammel and Felucca, not in the other worlds.
To create a map, a mapmaker's pen and blank scrolls are needed. Also, pre-drawn maps can be overdrawn.
Listed below are the minimum levels the player needs to create different sorts of maps and the levels needed to decode treasure maps:
Skill Level | Craftables | Skill Level | Treasure Map Level |
---|---|---|---|
0 | Local Map | 30 | 1 - Plainly |
25 | City Map | 71 | 2 - Expertly |
35 | Sea Chart | 81 | 3 - Adeptly |
50 | World Map | 91 | 4 - Cleverly |
90 | Tattered Wall Map | 100 | 5 - Deviously |
--- | --- | 100 | 6 - Ingeniously |
--- | --- | 100 | 7 - Diabolically |
