It doesn't see the transitions through discussions unfortunately but that's not many of those.

Fun with Visio! :P

You know it's funny... I was just thinking earlier today how I'd forgotten where an area was and how convenient it would be to just have a map. Valefort, you are a scholar and a gentleman sir!

It is missing the CR of the area. Hence, as a nerd, I am not pleased. :P

That info is way too complicated to parse ! You'll annotate the map yourself.

Maecius wrote:Valefort compiled the following list of area maps by CR for QC, and we decided we'd post it for general public use and awareness as well.

It is an incomplete list at present. Right now it only contains surface areas, though we may update it for Underdark areas at some point if possible.

Note that the CRs are based on the idea that you'll be taking the map on with a party. If you're going in solo, it's been suggested you add 2-3 levels to the area's challenge rating.
