There is a way to obtain this with much less work, but akin to the original task, it still won't be easy. To those who come across this post, I will tell you how to get the golden compass. The theory is, if you spam random islands on the map enough (with an autoclicker, else good luck,) you will eventually have technically mapped 2000 islands correctly, and the Cartographer will show this. However, this will come with many, many false island marks; in my case, there were 8000 false islands. To fix this, we can use the Cartographer's "Erase Incorrect Island Mark" offer, (which you will have to program an Autohotkey script to do enough in a manageable time; 1 hour for me,) for 20 gold per island. But this will cost a grand total of 160,000 gold! To make such a such a sum, there is a trick. For those unaware, search up the Ether Amulet quest. It is a quest in which you must choose a path by summoning a person to give the Ether Amulet. I won't go into super fine detail, but if you leave one of the two summoning stones in a chest (I suggest Elisaar's, since the other guy gives you back the amulet,) you can spawn the boss infinitely and farm his drops, using the spare amulets to trade with Elisaar for additonal drops. Doing this repeatedly will land you enough to mass the necessary amount, and then it's just up to your patience. Some may find this less tedious than looking up an online map and painstakingly charting them yourself, but I understand if you see this as a stretch. Good luck!
