Map Device

The Map Device is a world object that allows the player to access certain areas by placing items such as maps, map fragments, or other map-related items inside it.

Accessing the Map Device
The first Map Device the player encounters is located in The Chamber of Sins Level 1 in Act 7 to use to enter Maligaro's Sanctum. This Map Device cannot activate any other map.

After completing the mission Picking Up the Pieces, the player will receive a Map Device item which can be placed in your hideout. This map device will also grant a 1% boost to item quantity, going up to 8% as you complete maps, or add previous challenge league modifiers at a cost of some s.

Mechanics
In order to activate the device maps, map fragments, or miscellaneous map items, it need to be placed inside the Map Receptacle. Generally only one item is required, but for map fragments it is required to have a combination of matching fragments to open an area.

It is also possible to place other items with a map for bonuses, such as map fragments for bonus item quantity, to collect Pantheon souls, and scarabs. The map device has 4 items slots. A fifth slot can be unlocked by completing the Domain of Timeless Conflict with four emblems used, as shown in the Atlas quick guide.

When the Map Device is activated, six portals to the map area are opened. Each portal can only be used once, and will be closed once the player exits the area. Opening a new portal inside the map will only move the entrance point to that position, instead of creating a brand new portal.

Miscellaneous Map Items
