When to start here
Use the map first when the blocker still is a biome, landmark, or return-path question rather than one exact item.
A map-first route into the guide library
Interactive map
Check the world view before you open the next route page.
Use a marker, then leave for the guide that actually solves the current blocker.
This first map is a practical world index, not a claim that every tile of the game is fully mapped. It highlights the major areas players reopen most often.
Best use
Start here when the issue is a biome, route, or landmark and text-only browsing still feels too broad.
Map board
Click a location, then open the linked guide while the target still matches your save.

What this board does well
It narrows the world into a few strong route anchors so you can leave for the right full page faster.
What to do next
After the marker feels right, open either the location entry, the linked route page, or one of the helper tools below.
Map handoff
Once the location is clear, move into the right shelf instead of staying on the map.
Open the location shelfUse the database when the landmark is known and the exact route page is next.Open the progression shelfSwitch here when the map question is really about what stage the save should be in.Open ore entriesMove into mining pages when the biome route is solved and the next loop is the blocker.Use the tools deskChoose a helper when the route still feels too broad for one category page.
Common map blockers
Map pages work best when the player problem is named first.
Need a landmark
I know the biome, but not the exact landmark or exit.Use the map to narrow the area first, then open the location page that matches the target route or return path.Need the next stage
The route is not the problem. The save is just between stages.Switch into progression pages when the map question is really about what milestone deserves the next session.Need one material
The target is a mine or ore loop, but the search area still feels too wide.Use the map to find the region first, then move into ore entries for the exact route or farm loop.Need a boss area
The fight location is the blocker, not the fight itself.Use the map to find the arena zone, then move to the boss page for prep, mistakes, and recovery details.Need a reset point
The run needs a cleaner return path, not another long explanation.Use the map to make the loop obvious, then leave for the exact guide once the route anchor is named.Map decision table
Use this when the world view is helpful, but the next page still is not obvious.
ClueFirst stepOpen next
I know the biome, but the route still feels blank.
Pick the landmark or return path first.
database/locations
The issue is really a long trip with too many stops.
Choose whether the trip is for ore, boss, or return support.
tools/ore-route-planner
I only need to know where to go, not read another long explanation.
Use the map as a route anchor, then leave quickly.
database/progression
My old markers are making the path harder to read.
Clean marker purpose before trusting the old notes.
tools/map-marker-cleaner
The target is a blocker like green crystal or ore boulder.
Use the map only after the blocker type is clear.

High-search map routes
These searches now leave the map page for the exact blocker instead of staying broad.
