Not a super-essential issue, but I feel it would be helpful to gatherers if the 18 hour timer on Timeworn Treasure Maps could be added to the Gathering Log (or the other Timers menu).
It would be very helpful to see when the 18 hours are up if you happened to forget or didn't catch the time when you got the previous map.
Agree - this was already suggested several times here but should be actually posted in the Suggestion thread to have some chance of being heard / implemented.
Out of curiosity, is there a limit to how many maps you can have at one time, or is it determined by how much key item space you have?
Contrary to the Live Letter, you can only have ONE undeciphered map on you, of any given type, at a time. Each map has the Unique tag, so you cannot get a second Timeworn Peisteskin Map until you Decipher the first, or get the first out of your main inventory.
You can only have ONE deciphered map on you. Once you Decipher a map, you have to either find the chest, or discard the map, before you can decipher another one.
So, all told, you can have a maximum of SIX maps on you : one Timeworn of each type, plus one deciphered map in your Key Items.
Add in your retainers, who can also hold one of each type, and you are looking at 16 maps, 3 of each type plus the one deciphered. IMO its easier to just mail maps to a trusted friend, there are more mail moogles in the world, more widely scattered about, than there are retainer bells.
Completely agree that a timer should be added in the timers section.
I've created a request in the UI section on the forums:

Also I don't understand why these maps need to be Unique.
It makes sense that they only want you to decipher one at a time.
But it's just plain annoying to have to run around to retainers or go back to the market to purchase maps one at a time.
ESPECIALLY when you're in a Full group hunting Piesteskins.
