It is recommended to upgrade the starting Coral Wreckage map to Perfect and, if you have the GP to do so, refine it to reduce the Medium Artefact Value to maximize the chance of getting the Old Spyglass. Getting the {{ItemIcon|Aranite Sieve|notext=true}}{{ItemIcon|Aranite Trowel|notext=true}}{{ItemIcon|Aranite Brush|notext=true}}Aranite Tool Set will be worth the time investment since {{ItemIcon|Captains Logbook}} will require {{SkillReq|Archaeology|105}} and finding Artefacts rewards more XP than finding nothing. | It is recommended to upgrade the starting Coral Wreckage map to Perfect and, if you have the GP to do so, refine it to reduce the Medium Artefact Value to maximize the chance of getting the Old Spyglass.

You want to start Auto Surveying at (26, 8). This will require you to Survey (27, 9) and (27, 8) first. At {{SkillReq|Cartography|85}}, you will be able to Purchase {{UpgradeIcon|Ship Keel Upgrade}}. At {{SkillReq|Cartography|90}} you will want to restart the Auto Survey at (28, 12) so the Level 90 Hexes around (30, 16) get Surveyed. At {{SkillReq|Cartography|99}} the second last Ship Upgrade, {{UpgradeIcon|Ship Crow's Nest Upgrade}}, can be purchased. | You want to start Auto Surveying at (26, 8).

Upon reaching {{SkillReq|Cartography|100}}, you want to manually Survey (30, 9) and (31, 8). From here, Auto Survey (31, 7) until the corner hex is Fully Survyed. Ideally you will want to be active when this happens otherwise you will need to move which will result in losing one of the -2% Survey Interval POIs 1 turn sooner. After you fully Survey {{POIIcon|The Edge of Darkness}} at (31, 0), you will want to move there. This will unlock the Shop Purchase, {{UpgradeIcon|Cartographer's Knowledge}} for {{GP|50000000}}. Traveling to this hex will also cost somewhere around 47.5m-52m GP. | Upon reaching {{SkillReq|Cartography|100}}, you want to manually Survey (30, 9) and (31, 8).

To reach level 120 you will have to move 2-3 more times to areas with higher exp.

The first location you will want to move to is the snowy area in the bottom middle, around (17, 25) since this is a dense, compact area. Upon reaching {{SkillReq|Cartography|110}}, the final Ship Upgrade, {{UpgradeIcon|Ship Combat Overhaul}}, can be purchased. The top middle is going to be the second location, around (12, 2) so you can grab the level 80 and 90 hexes to the East and West. Upon reaching {{SkillReq|Cartography|120}}, you will want to purchase and equip the {{ItemIcon|Superior Cartography Skillcape}}. If you still have not reached {{SkillReq|Cartography|120}} after the first 2 locations, move to the center of the map, around (16, 11) and start surveying the hexes to the East since they are higher level than the ones on the left. | |||
