Treasure maps

    So I have a bunch of treasure maps taking up my inventory and I am looking to go clear them all out by searching for the treasures.. What do you think the likelihood is that they will buff them? If so maybe it might be worth it to save them although the buff might not make it worthy enough. Do you guys think if they did buff them it would affect any treasure maps collected previous to the buff like ones all the ones we all saved up?

    If you're on NA PC I'll take them if you don't want em. Doesn't take me long at all to do them. Treasure Maps addon adds an icon to your map for any treasure map you have in your inventory.

    yeah, that can happen, it's just that it's unusual and unreliable, so people don't count on it for farming. there's a chance for just about anything to drop regional set items, really. like, about a month ago i got an infused Werewolf Hide Jack from a pair of skeevers.

    one time i spent like 3 days straight doing dolmens in Rivenspire. i had my purple Necro rings and really wanted a necklace better than blue. i got fed up and started walking to a wayshrine. one of those little Oblivion portals opened up on the way, the kind that spawn 5 daedra in 2 waves? so i took out my frustration by doing a full boss-melt on those guys. went to grab my loot and guess what i found?

    You found the necro necklace.. Nice! Yes I do get Zone set jewelry drops from those Daedric encounters also. Not sure if it's all the time but I received one from them recently and I don't kill them much so just not sure. I guess it might be systemically safe to say that the Dolmen boss itself has a very low percentage chance to drop the weapon excluding the Dolmen chest though.

    yeah that's right, but it's just as safe to say that the weapon can drop from a wolf. no need to distinguish. any enemy has a small chance to drop regional gear of any sort, was what i meant to say.

    I have an addon that points the location on the map, same one I use for surveys. I stash them to a few dozen and collect in one sweep every few weeks. I had about 50-60 of them before Summerset and collected right after the patch dropped. Took me about an hour overall since I have all shrines discovered and a maximum speed horse with maneuver. Got plenty of green/blue non set and even set jewelry that I deconstructed for training the skill. Other than that mostly trash set gear (either useless sets or bad traits), but also a few good pieces I sold on guild stores. Overall the dropped ones aren't that bad. The worst look I've gotten was from the CE maps I got with Summerset purchase. Not even a set item in 3 chests.

    Okay I understand.. I did not know that.

    With the addon I like to collect them, not a good investment(Altough once I got something which I sold 100k+ can't remember what), but sometimes I like to tarvel to long finished zones, in that way they can be fun so they have value for me :D
