Maps serve as the endgame content in Path of Exile. Like equipment, they come in magic, rare, and unique rarities and have their own special affixes. Affixes on maps can make them more difficult but can also increase your potential rewards. Maps can also have quality, which can be raised by using a Cartographer's Chisel inventory iconCartographer's ChiselCartographer's ChiselStack Size: 20Improves the quality of a mapRight click this item then left click a map to apply it. Has greater effect on lower-rarity maps. The maximum quality is 20%.
Shift click to unstack.

.

Maps can drop from anything that can drop items of item level 60 or higher. Non-map areas cannot drop maps higher than level 66, as of patch 0.10.8.

Maps of level 67 or greater can drop from anything inside a map that can drop items of the same item level. As a result, magic monsters can drop maps 1 level higher than the map they reside in, rare and unique monsters can drop maps that are 2 levels higher.

Maps cannot be used until you have access to the Eternal Laboratory, which can be accessed after completing Lady Dialla's quests in Act 3 on Merciless difficulty. They can later also be used in your hideout, if the player has Zana's map device.

As of version 1.2.3 there are 65 base maps and 10 unique maps.

Maps by Level

  • C: The map has an open layout with many obstacles, or has long side paths that require backtracking.

Boss ratings:

  • 3: Occasionally high damage output that can be avoided reasonably well.
  • 2: Moderate damage output that can be easily kited and/or reasonably mitigated by most builds.

Modifiers

Each (non-unique) map can have up to 3 prefixes and 3 suffixes, just like other items. Currency related to rarity also works the same, for example an orb of alchemy will turn a basic map into a rare. Modifiers for maps change the properties of the map when one is in that map, thereby making it more difficult and (usually) resulting in increased item quantity for all drops on that map. High increased quantity also affects the drop rates of maps while in a particular map, so high modifiers will increase your chances at continuing to get map drops and finding higher level maps to use.

Map Bosses

See map bosses to see what boss resides in what map.

Unidentified Maps

It is possible to put unidentified maps into the map device in the Eternal Laboratory. There is a +30% Item Quantity bonus when running these maps, but even when you enter the map the specific modifiers to the map are not revealed to you, even though the overall quantity is. Some are easy to observe, burning or chilled ground are very obvious for example, but others are harder to know immediately. As such, it's recommended that you have a strong character before tackling such maps, otherwise the map could have many dangerous affixes to put your character in danger. Unidentified maps can be obtained as map drops, or by vendoring 3x magic or rare maps of the same base type.

This bonus does not apply to unidentified unique maps.[1]

Corrupted Maps

Like most other items, maps can be corrupted using a Vaal Orb inventory iconVaal OrbVaal OrbStack Size: 10Corrupts an item, modifying it unpredictablyRight click this item then left click an item to corrupt it. Corrupted items cannot be modified again.
Shift click to unstack.
Vaal Orb inventory icon
. One of the following effects will occur:

  • No effect (other than adding the corrupted property).
  • Add or subtract one level, changing the base type to one appropriate for the new level, and randomizing the affixes. This is the only way to create a level 79 Vaal Temple Map (Ritual) inventory iconVaal Temple MapVaal Temple MapMap Level: 83

    Vaal Temple Map (Ritual) inventory icon
    . Level 66 maps can not drop to level 65.
  • Reroll the item into a rare item with up to eight random affixes.
  • Unidentify the item, retaining its affixes and quantity bonus. Unidentified magic or rare maps receive a 30% bonus quantity.

In addition to these effects, all bosses of corrupted maps have a chance to drop Sacrifice Vaal Fragments or Vaal Skill Gems.

Map fragments

Main page: Vaal Fragment

Placing any one of the vaal fragments along with a map into the map device will increase the IIQ of that map by 5% per sacrifice piece. Doubles or triples of the same piece will not work.

A single vaal fragment in the map device opens a random corrupted area. The level of the area will depend on the fragment used:
