Treasure Maps need to be more accessible and more integrated

[DrWho2010]

Some sort of queue system for treasure maps does feel like a good idea to me. I'm not sure exactly how they would implement it, but if I could go out and grab myself a treasure map and then just queue up for a hunt like I could a dungeon I would definitely do it. Treasure maps for me are on that borderline of "fun enough to do" but not "fun enough to organize for"

sounds like lazyness to me.

Obtaining maps is fine. They pop up a lot while gathering. If I wanted one, I’d only have to gather for a short while. Also Khloe literally gives everyone one a week and there’s always plenty on the MB.

The answer if you want a map is to level a gatherer, not to get the game made easier.

Yep, Obtaining them is simple, and really doesn't need changing.

A map queue would be good, but then - are there enough people with zonureskins at any time to form the party?

While a queue for maps would be helpful, a more immediate fix would to clear the trash off of party finder so it's more usable.

Maps are fine. The larger issue is that people either only want to do them if they can guarantee they get something valuable from it, or cant be bothered to make a PF and wait for people to come along and run the risk of having "their" loot "stolen" from them.

It's a community issue, not a game issue.

Needs to be more solo friendly and give each member their own loot. No more greed/need.

Good news, SQEX already has exactly what you're asking for already in the game.
When they add a new map they actually add two at a time: one for parties at level cap, and one for individuals (it actually says in the tooltip whether it recommends a party or not).

Right now the party map is Zonureskin, and the one for individuals is Gliderskin.
Enjoy your solo runs~

I just wish they stacked to 5.

I'd imagine if they were given a queue system then finding a group wouldn't be too hard. Convenience works wonders.

yeah new maps are always pretty active for first few months
but for older maps they really should let people unsync them for solo purposes
