Dungeon Maps
One leader's map opens a private expedition for up to five players. The route, enemies and modifiers are fixed by the map you choose.
First map in six steps
| Step | What to do | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| 1 · FIND | Loot a map from a qualifying world monster, or buy one through Market offers. | Materials alone do not create your first map. |
| 2 · REVIEW | Put it in your backpack and use it. Check the dungeon, difficulty, rarity, layout and all modifiers. | Two maps of the same dungeon can play very differently. |
| 3 · PREPARE | Choose gear and recovery for the roll. Activate Normal Mode and finish its two-minute arming period before entry. | Sealing is permanent. Entering without active rewards forfeits completion Dust and the tier unlock, even if you switch mode later. |
| 4 · ENTER | In town/PZ, choose Prepare expedition. Everyone accepts the 30-second ready check and stays still. | All players must meet the dungeon access, level and unlocked difficulty. Only the leader supplies a map. |
| 5 · CLEAR | Reach 95%, defeat the boss within 45 minutes; clear 100% first for bonus Dust. | Death or leaving ends your participation. |
| 6 · CLAIM | Loot the corpses, return to town and select Claim rewards. Check your inbox. | Dust and the next difficulty unlock belong to each eligible surviving participant. |

Finding maps
Any qualifying natural world monster can drop a map. There is no rule that Gorgol maps must come from Gorgols. The monster needs at least 1,000 base EXP; its reward owner must be online, level 100+, have at least 15 hours 1 minute of stamina and active Normal Mode rewards. Support Mode loot suppression blocks the roll. Summons and monsters inside Dungeon Maps do not qualify.
Examples include natural Dragon Lords, Hydras, Frost Dragons, Behemoths and Demons. A Dragon has only 700 base EXP and does not qualify. There is one roll per eligible corpse for its reward owner, not one roll per party member. The owner is not necessarily the player who dealt the last hit.
| Drop | Chance per qualifying corpse | Details |
|---|---|---|
| Any dungeon map | 1/900 · 0.1111% | Appears in the corpse; one family is then chosen uniformly from those allowed by your level. |
| Cartographic Dust | 1/100 · 1% | Independent roll, 1–3 Dust. |
| A particular layout | 1/15 after a map drops | All 15 routes have equal probability. |
| Your level | Families in the pool | Chance of one particular available family |
|---|---|---|
| 100–124 | 1 | 1/900 |
| 125–149 | 2 | 1/1,800 |
| 150–349 | 4 | 1/3,600 |
| 350–499 | 6 | 1/5,400 |
| 500–599 | 7 | 1/6,300 |
| 600–899 | 9 | 1/8,100 |
| 900+ | 10 | 1/9,000 |
Quest and reborn access do not reduce the drop pool. You can sell a map for a dungeon you have not unlocked. Loot boosts and monster levels do not multiply the separate map/Dust world-drop chances. There is no guaranteed drop after a fixed number of kills: 900 eligible kills give about a 63.2% chance of at least one map.
Dropped maps are Plain 60%, Inscribed 30% or Rare 10%. Exalted maps come from upgrading. Maps drop unsealed and without locked modifiers. For the selected dungeon, 75% of tier selections force Normal; the other 25% choose uniformly among all your unlocked tiers, including Normal. With all six unlocked, Normal is about 79.17% and each other tier about 4.17%.
Read your map
| Field | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Dungeon / item colour | Enemy family, boss, access and environment. Ten different emblems make the families recognizable. |
| Layout | One of fifteen route shapes. Hover the review icon or the in-dungeon thumbnail for the larger S/B preview. |
| Difficulty / tier | Normal → Hard → Expert → Master → Torment → Hell. Sets base monster scaling and crafting gold multiplier. |
| Rarity | Plain (0 slots), Inscribed (2), Rare (4), Exalted (6). More slots mean more possible bonuses and threats; Exalted is not a seventh difficulty. |
| Modifiers | Green values help you or increase rewards; warm colours identify danger. Read the name, rolled value and range together. |
| Risk / pressure points | Reward-driving danger score from the actual rolls. It can exceed 100; it is not a percent chance. |
| Seal | An optional permanent contract on a Rare/Exalted map of Master or higher. |
| Locked modifier | Preserved when rerolling families or values. Up to two locks; extra Wax is charged on those rerolls. |
Inside the expedition
- A map is consumed only after a valid ready check and successful preparation. A failed pre-entry check does not spend it. Once you enter, losing the expedition spends the map.
- Every layout has 1,000 base enemies. Crowded adds 100–250 more. There is no regular respawn; roaming patrols move existing monsters.
- At 95% clear the boss appears. Commanders maps additionally require all three marked commanders.
- The timer is 45 minutes. After success you have 120 seconds to collect loot and leave.
- Death or choosing Leave map ends that player's participation. Reconnecting has a 120-second grace period; do not plan around disconnections.
- The run panel sits above chat and follows its position. Open its details to review the layout, modifiers and reward bonuses during the run.
- Extra density/event monsters do not award ordinary task, bestiary or Battle Pass kill credit. Density enemies still count toward the expedition clear counter.
Rewards and progression
Corpse loot and completion rewards are separate. Monsters and the boss retain their own drop tables. Map pressure and reward modifiers improve eligible drops; completion grants Cartographic Dust. Each eligible, online survivor receives their own completion Dust reward. Normal Mode rewards must be active when entering and when finishing: let the two-minute arming period finish before entry. Entering in Support Mode or while arming forfeits completion Dust and the tier unlock, even if Normal Mode activates during the run.
For exact Dust calculations, danger/reward examples and all 28 rolls, see Modifiers. For rerolls, recipes, permanent seals and trading, see Crafting.
Troubleshooting
| What you see | What to check |
|---|---|
| A map is missing from My maps | Move it from the inbox/depot into a backpack. Reset filters or use the item directly, then Refresh. An offer listed for sale is held by the market. |
| I created an item but it does not work | On TEST, use the supplied !dmaptest commands. A bare item made with /i has no valid map roll. |
| Prepare expedition is rejected | Check every member: level, access quest, highest reborn if required, unlocked tier, PZ, combat state and party leader. Stay at the ready-check position. |
| I cannot craft the map | Check whether it is sealed, reserved by a ready check, lacks a free slot, has locks incompatible with the action, or needs more inventory materials/gold. |
| I bought/cancelled a map but cannot find it | It is delivered to your inbox. Move it to your backpack to use it. |
| The next tier did not unlock | Claim rewards in town. You must be an eligible survivor of the successful run; check progression for the same dungeon. |
| A modifier combination is too hard | Use a suitable build, reroll while unsealed, scour the map, trade it or salvage it. Sealed rolls cannot be altered. |
| My game still shows the old system | This is an upcoming-update guide. Wait for the game release announcement and matching client update. |
