    New Treasure Maps (3.0)

    Does anyone know what the difficulty is for the new treasure maps? Just got a Timeworn Archaeoskin Map from gathering. Curious whether I can solo or if I should drag along a few friends.

    Also, if anyone has gotten any new/rare loot please post your booty here!

    The map says the recommended level and party size on it.

    Like how peisteskin maps said 8 people but were done with 3-4 the day they were added?

    Yes, as anyone who has ever done treasure maps is aware of, I would think.

    if it says 8 you can assume 4 or less, if it says solo Id still wait till 60 to pop it just in case

    The one you just got should be a recommended level of 55. I solo'd it on WHM 55 easy.

    Are these on nodes 51+? Started to look for them to get my achievements done and out of the way, but kept finding old old old maps.

    I got one in Coerthas West from a 55 node. It was the lowest though. Took two friends at 53 and it was one mob.

    Yeah took a while, but was doing some misc farming and came across one. Trying to reap the rewards before others get on the map farming train

    Did 2 lvl 55 single player ones with another monk yesterday. Hardest part was adds. Easily soloable. Just a warning. You will need flight in some areas to get to the locations.

    My lvl 50 war poetics princess alt was enough for the lvl 55 map, but could get a bit shaky. Bring chocobo. Exquisite buttons, rush grass, and middle mats (wyvern leathers, mythrite rivets etc) so far. Oh and draconian stat potions, sometimes hq. Also unhidden leather maps.

    Make sure you can fly everywhere, the coffers pop in fly-only spots. Arch one is doable 55+ single, from 55+ nodes. Got an unhidden from my first lol.

    Reddit reports that you can gather up an HQ map. Unsure what if anything changes about it.

    Can confirm for fisher, seems to be only when using the hq rate+ ability (patience).

    But don't get excited; trying to pop the map delivers the message at the very end "You do not possess a decipherable map."

    You can right click it and select lower quality to make it actually useable.

    Only reason I can figure, if it's not a bug, is that you gain more xp reeling it in.

    if you were clad in i130 stuff prior to heavensward, archaeoskin maps (lv55) should be very easy, even without birdie (was queuing at the time). Mine was 2 wave of 2 ice elementals, which I easily did as PLD51 (i129)

    That was by far the easiest of the possibilities though.

    We did two more last night and got quite a large wave of mobs both times. They weren't tough but might overwhelm some classes.

    Dragonskin Maps seem to be the new Peiste Maps, got one off a lvl 56 node and it recommends a pt of 8.

    did two of them this morning, same 3 mobs both times. 5 people w/ gimpy Titan tank.

    was a little rough till we just slept them and did them 1 by 1. it was a lot like doing Peiste in i60.

    tank healer DPS combo highly recommended till people get better gear.
