  • Map Acquiring Guide

    I was looking to get a few maps that I am missing and found this nice map guide. It was by Vilurum. I included his version history as he updated the post. I hope this helps everyone complete their maps collection because im now going to get the rest of mine.

    Version History:
    12/23/07: Added Wings of the Goddess maps.
    08/28/07: Added Chocobo Circuit map. Removed apostrophe from Alzadaal map name because apparently SE ninja'd that out at some point.
    12/18/06: Added Remnants maps. Updated categories.
    11/29/06: Clarified NPC for Alza'daal Ruins map.
    07/25/06: Guide initially created.

    Original FFXI maps are in white. Rise of the Zilart maps are in red. Chains of Promathia maps are in dark-red. Treasures of Aht Urhgan maps are in green. Wings of the Goddess maps are in purple.

    Purchased maps:

    These maps are all simply and easily available by purchase from the relevant NPC. You will also get one of the first three maps for free when you start your character, corresponding to your starting city.

    Nice guide. Nothing extraordinary because wiki already has a full text searchable list of maps and how to acquire, but a nice compilation none-the-less.

        To be fair, he didn't actually compile the list. He just borrowed it. But I'm sure some newbies around here will find it handy.
