    Treasure Map Topic

    So far I caught a Timeworn Boarskin Map while fishing and waiting for the Crystal Tower FATE to spawn.

    So far my only complaint is that when the treasure map is deciphered it shows you where to dig on a small map AND tells you which zone to go to. I think being told exactly what zone to dig in defeats purpose of hunting the treasure. Could we get this feature removed so that we are only given a small picture of the general location?

    I'll post what I get as a reward when I get around to finishing it.

    Edit: Even for a solo fight ALL members of your party must be in the area.

    Three waves of monsters spawned.
    Reward:
    Free-fall loot: Dodo Tenderloin HQ, Dodo Egg, 5 swan feathers, 180 lightning shards, 2 handfuls of mythiril rings hq, 2 undyed felt HQ, 211gil,
    Tomestone reward: ONE mythology tomestone
    Loot pool: Aqueous Whetstone.

    What gathering class did you get your map on? I was wondering how it works on Fisher since it is random and getting a treasure map prevents you from getting more for several hours.

    Also how many members did you have in your party? I'm wondering if gil/stones split among how many are in the group.

    I was fishing in Sapsa Spawning grounds. Of course I had a full party of 8 when the drops happened. Even though it was a solo map it was required that all party members be in the same zone.

    How difficult was the 8-man hunt?

    I did an 8 man hunt yesterday. I only did it with 4 people but we could have done it with less. There were several waves of 3-5 mobs, but they all had pretty low hp. It might be a little harder to solo, but it is easy with 2-3 people. I have no idea why they thought you would need 8.

    Probably because you are in Allagan gear and the number is directed towards fresh 50's. But yes I agree, it's very easy

    If you're in a heavily patrolled zone, like a Castrum or right by 50 Sea Wasps, trying to duo a 8-man map is just asking to die.

    Not really, I can almost solo the 8 man Alpha maps, main issue is I can't kill it fast enough solo. Having as DD with me would make it easy.
