It takes 14 swings to dig up a treasure chest. You will see a short animation and then either receive a message that you find no treasure, or the animation will repeat a few times, you will receive a message you found the treasure, and a chest will slowly appear out of the ground. Alternatively, use the context menu on the map and choose the 'dig treasure' option. To attempt a dig, double-click on a shovel (or pickaxe), then target the map you want to dig, then target the spot you wish to dig. With 0 Cartography, you must dig on the chest tile or on one of the tiles directly surrounding the chest. %Cartography talismans are used in the crafting of maps and do not affect the Cartography skill, digging radius, or quality of treasure chests.Legendary Mapmaker's Glasses increase Cartography, thereby also affecting digging radius and chest quality. Mining is no longer required to dig up a treasure chest.Ĭartography now provides bonuses to both the distance you can be from a chest while digging and the quality of chest dug up.Each profession has individual preferences as to what they might choose to bury as treasure.

The treasure may have belonged to one of five types of adventurers: Artisan, Assassin, Mage, Ranger, or Warrior. Treasure maps require Cartography to decode, at which point the map will change from tattered to Blessed, revealing the location of a buried treasure chest. Maps can be obtained from various creatures and come in five types roughly corresponding to the difficultly of the creatures both possessing and guarding the map: Stash, Supply, Cache, Hoard, or Trove. Treasure Maps show the location where a Treasure Chest is buried.
