The areas in FFXI are given maps to help characters navigate as they move around within the world of Vana'diel. The key items that provide these maps can be acquired through purchase, via quests and missions, or by opening a chest or coffer that contains the map. This guide describes how to obtain the many different map key items within FFXI, so that a character has maps everywhere that they are available. Each character starts with the map of the area for their home nation, which includes numerous areas around the city; all other maps take gil or effort to obtain. The price of map items, unlike most other items purchased from NPC merchants, is fixed; a character's fame level will not change the cost. High levels of fame are required in order to start many quests that provide various map items, however. Many of the maps are only available from opening a Chest or Coffer.
The list below details the map items available for the zones within FFXI, along with information on how to obtain them.
Click on a zone name to view map images for that zone, including maps of Notorious Monsters and Chest & Coffer locations.
