Treasure Hunting

The Basics

On this shard we are lucky enough to have customised treasure hunting! You will need just 2 items to commence such an adventure, a treasure map and a shovel. Treasure maps are dropped randomly on monsters that you kill in trammel and fel. Monsters can drop maps for either facet, the harder the monster the higher level maps are dropped by them. For an example of what drops which maps see the monsters spawned with each level chest below as a start, but this is not an exhaustive list.

In terms of skills, you will need cartography and lockpicking, mining is optional (the higher the skill the further you can stand from the chest spot while digging it up). The more difficult the map the greater the rewards and the associated danger. See the table below for what loot you can expect from the different levels of chests.

Finding your chest
Trammel: There are 2 things that will be your best friend in finding your chest, this page here http://uo.stratics.com/thb/info/maparchive/Archive1.shtml (accessed June 2015) and a rune library. Take a look at your map and the map on the webpage and click the area you think it is in, next you'll see a closer map style view with loads of red pins. Make a note of the number of the red pin that you think is yours and then find the rune of that number in the library and recall to that location, simple!

Find via script
There is an incredible tool that +Requiem has recommended that will even take the pin matching part of the process out of the equation. At the following URL http://www.easyuo.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=7619&sid=085d25dfb48495e5d03f807a47f73bbb you can download an EasyUO script that will tell you the map number of any map that you open. It's quite incredible really, but mostly useful for trammel as you can just hop on down to your rune library and visit the number location that the script spits out.

Fel: This follows a similar procedure, but you can't recall to your location. Instead you will require a sextant and a bit of leg work. You can find the co-ordinates for your map by using the archive still, but when you click your pin on the webpage you will need to make a note of the co-ordinates of where to find it, rather than the map number. Next, head to Fel and head to the rough location of your map and use the sextant, your co-ordinates will appear above your head and you can move around until you are at the chest.

To start digging, with the shovel in your pack double click the shovel and then target your map and the animation will start, or you can single click the map and click "dig for treasure". While digging you cannot move or drag items in your pack or cast spells because it will cancel the digging and you will need to dig again. You can still defend yourself as long as you're not moving from where you're digging.

Looting your chest
Each time you take something out there is a chance that it will spawn another monster from the list below according to the level of the chest. This includes removing single items from stacks, so if you want to make the most of the spawn, loot everything individually! Once you have finished looting your chest you can remove it by single clicking it and then remove, just to be courteous to other treasure hunters as otherwise they need to wait for your chest to decay before digging theirs up.

^{^}Lockpicking required
The lockpicking/cartography required in this table may now be out after the 2.0 update to treasure hunting in May 2017, as C+ stated that over 120 lockpicking is required for a lvl 7 chest, but using +1 gear will suffice, but a level 8 will require multiple +3 pieces.

^& Monster difficulty
Monsters on lvl 7 and lvl 8 chests have increased difficulty and also yield greater weapon exp than their usual versions.

*Special Loot
You can tell if a chest contains any 'special loot' by the number of items it contains. If it contains the lowest number possible there will be no special items, each addition item the chest carries over the lower limit will be a special item up to a max of 4.

Level 1 : Bucket, Lantern of Souls, Coconuts (3 different graphic types and all edible), Soulstone Shards (type 1), Crystal Ball, Novice Lockpicking and Cartography +1 Gear

Level 2 : Bucket, Coconuts (3 different graphic types and all edible), Soulstone Shards (type 2), Adept Lockpicking and Cartography +3 Gear

Level 3 : Bucket, Coconuts (3 different graphic types and all edible), Soulstone Shards (type 2), Master Lockpicking and Cartography +5 Gear

Level 4 : Bucket, Coconuts (3 different graphic types and all edible), Soulstone Shards (type 3), Master Lockpicking and Cartography +5 Gear

In addition to this loot you will also have a whole host of weapons and armour with various added stats, whether these are any use is debatable.

Maps in chests
Monsters only drop maps up to level 5 maps, level 6 maps can be obtained from paragon chests from a monster that would drop a level 5 map, the highest level maps come from other treasure maps. When you open a chest there is a chance to obtain a map 1 level higher than the current chest (8 is the max), the facet the map belongs to is random. Luck DOES affect your chances of getting a map in the chest. Players have reported that with high luck (3K+) the rate of finding a map in a lvl 5 chest in Fel is about 50% and in Tram is about 25%.

Lockpicking and cartography + gear
We have lock-picking and cartography bonus skill gear to take you over your cap, and it will be necessary to unlock lvl7 and 8 chests, even with 120 natural lockpicking (as of May 2017).

Tenacity
A feature on this gear is tenacity, which has a value of up to 100%, each time you use a piece of armor the tenacity will decrease. When the tenacity reaches 0%, you will no longer receive the bonus to your stats. There is currently no way to repair tenacity.

Lockpicking
The lockpicking system has been updated as well (as of May 2017) to incorporate a timer, similar to the new crafting systems. Lockpicks made of different materials will make your job easier or more difficult, depending on the difficulty of the chest you are trying to unlock, and your skill. each map has it's own difficulty, which is then added to the 'level' of the lockpick. So, using an ice lockpick will have different results than using a platinum lockpick on the same chest. You may also notice your lockpicks breaking more often on more difficult chests.

New Loot (2.0 update, May 2017)

An epic addition to the treasure hunting system also sees collectables added to chests. These collectables spawn at a maximum of 1 per chest, and it has been observed by players that the spawn rate of these new collectables is roughly 20% and the collectable is not seemingly tied to a particular chest location. i.e. if you dig up another chest in the same place you may get a different item from that collection. The details of what can be found at each level and facet are listed below.
