Lua error in Module:Item2 at line 2490: Base item could not be found in the database. Check for spelling mistakes or whether the base item page exists on the wiki. If the base item page exists on the wiki, but it can not be found please null-edit the page..

Cortex is a unique Module Error: Item link: No results found for search parameter "Relic Chambers Map".. The base map has a variable tier but the unique map has a fixed area level (83).

Modifiers

The map has two pools of map modifiers, one draw from "synthesis global " pool (mod domain = 19), one from "synthesis local" pool (mod domain = 18).

Layout

The area was known as Fractured Laboratory during initial release in Synthesis league, which uses the same tileset as Module Error: Item link: No results found for search parameter "Laboratory Map"., Module Error: Item link: No results found for search parameter "Relic Chambers Map". and The Reliquary.

Version history

Version	Changes
3.13.0	Map tiers and locations have been shuffled (though the 'pin' locations for maps has not changed). Most maps are now initially found at a different tier. ^[a]
3.12.0	Map tiers and locations have been shuffled (though the 'pin' locations for maps has not changed). Most maps are now initially found at a different tier. ^[a]
3.11.0	Map tiers and locations have been shuffled (though the 'pin' locations for maps has not changed). Most maps are now initially found at a different tier. ^[a]
3.9.0	All 5 Synthesis maps can now drop as unique items. They can only be acquired from map bosses of Tier 11 or greater maps (or Tier 14 or greater for Cortex), or if you're very, very lucky, maybe Zana will sell you one. The Cortex map is now more commonly available from Zana relative to the other Synthesis maps, and is now always level 83 (previously had a variable level). All Synthesis maps now require a minimum level 80 area to appear in Zana's mission window. Unique maps can now drop with varied tiers based on the state of your Atlas. Maps that previously had monster level overrides (such as Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter exited with status 1.) now instead rely on the variable tier.^[b]
3.8.0	Overhauled as a core mechanics If you're lucky, Zana will now offer 5 new unique maps as part of her missions. Each map contains a boss encounter originally from the Synthesis league, and each can drop unique items originally exclusive to that league. Note, you cannot obtain Fractured items, nor will you have any access to the Synthesiser.
3.6.0	Introduced to the game as league mechanics

Notes

↑ ^1.0 ^1.1 ^1.2 The patch notes incorrectly stated that unique maps did not changed tier, however, they did. In 3.11, Cortex 's base tier is T9 and also have T11 and T14 variants. All variants have an area/monster level override, however. In 3.12 and 3.13, Cortex's map tiers are not changed. But other unique maps have changes in tiers.
↑ Despite stated in the patch note that unique maps do not have monster level overrides anymore, all Synthesis Maps have introduced monster level overrides since version 3.9.0. In specific, Cortex can dropped with variable tiers since circa version 3.10.0.
