Map Quality

What effect does improving a Map to 20 have on both the drops and the monsters?

Apologies for nub question but just starting to run maps!

Thanks in advance.
It increases the item quantity drop rate for that map, which in turn determines the likelihood of maps dropping. Only the map item quanity bonus affects the drop rate of maps -- IIR/IIQ on your gear does not affect map drop rate.

Take for example, Chisels. When you begin doing maps, you will want to Chisel your 69/70 maps in hopes that it will yield 71's and 72's. However once you've built up a solid pool of 70's, it may suddenly be less appealing to Chisel these as the opportunity cost is resources that would otherwise go to your higher maps. As always, figure out a good balance between your maps and your currency and adjust accordingly. Don't hesitate to spend if you're running low on maps and likewise be prudent with your currency even if you have a good pool.

TY!
Even more important then the +Quantity is rolling a maze mod for indoor maps or Area is Larger for outdoor maps. You will find many more maps if you make it a point to roll these mods.
