Map
Maps serve as the endgame content in Path of Exile. Like equipment, they come in magic, rare, and unique qualities 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, you can raise its quality by using a

.
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.
You can access this content after completing the quests for Lady Dialla in Act 3 on merciless difficulty. You can then access the Eternal Laboratory where maps can be used.
Note that in some of the pages for specific maps, it is indicated whether the map is indoors or outdoors. The main purpose of this is for predicting the behaviour of the map prefix Labyrinthe (Map is a maze), which has virtually no effect on outdoor maps and generally makes indoor maps much larger.
As of version 1.0.2 there are 62 base maps and 6 unique maps.
Maps by Level
Three maps can be sold to a vendor for a map of the next level. The resulting map is directly below the sold maps in this table. Unique maps are in parentheses with disabled unique maps in quotes.

Modifiers
Each (non-unique) map can have up to 3 prefixes and 3 affixes, 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.

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.
Map-only drops
The following unique items can only drop in maps[1]. Note that the minimum required item level isn't the same as the lowest map it can drop in. See item level for more information.
| Name | Minimum item level |
|---|---|
| Divinarius | 71 |
| Lioneye's Glare | 71 |
| Andvarius | 71 |
| Auxium | 72 |
| Ming's Heart | 73 |
| Lioneye's Remorse | 73 |
| Devoto's Devotion | 74 |
| Rathpith Globe | 74 |
| Mon'tregul's Grasp | 75 |
| Thunderfist | 76 |
| Void Battery | 77 |
