is it worth it to do the treasure maps eg. spooky map, underwater map etc? What kind of prizes do you get?

See:

The only map I think is worth it is the Lab Map, the Spooky is not worth it and if you can collect the orignial Treasure Map without buying pieces it can eb worth it.

Depending on who you speak to, they'll say only the lab map is worth it. I kind of agree with that. I just finished my lab map, and it's almost paid for itself in about a week. I've gained 15 HP, quite alot of strength, a little defence, and changed color once.

Lab map is definately worth it! The treasure map is only worth it if you don't pay for it, because you can sometimes get really rare items.

I wouldn't go out and buy any of the maps besides the lab map. I get pieces of the original map from Scorchy Slots. When I get a complete set, I turn it in because there is a chance of getting really rare items. Even if I get items that's aren't worth so much, the map was free, so I didn't lose anything. I got 11k np plus items the last time.

I personaly wouldn't even redeam a "free" map
You can sell them for much more NP than you redeam them for and your chances of getting an item rare enough to make up the difference are slim.
The lab map is definitly worth it if you decide to train your pet that way (I would advise keeping up regular training to keep all of the stats even)
It's not worth it if you don't partiuclarly care about your pet's stats or if you have a strong attachment to it's species and gender (or paint job)

Well, the space map used to be worth it, since the pieces were like 5k each. The Underwater map, too, but now they're both so expensive that I say don't waste your money on them unless you have about 5mil to waste. The spooky has never been worth it, which is why they sell for less than 100k. The lab, obviously, is worth the money, although it's starting to get reeeeeeeeealy expensive. Now for the treasure map. There are two schools of thought on it. Some people think they're not worth it, cause the odds of getting your money back or making a profit are so very slim. Other people, such as myself, think those maps are totally worth it, since you can win cool stuff like draik eggs, dark battle ducks, and tooth faerie snowglobes. I have personally won a Tooth Faerie Snowglobe and a Red Draik Plushie from a treasure map, (although not the same map) but I've also gotten junk from two other maps. It just depends on how much of a gamble you like to take. You can win ANYthing from a treasure map, as long as it's rarity 98 or less.

Lab map is worth it.
Treasure, like everyone said, is worth it if you don't buy the pieces... I have 5 so far and didn't pay for one.

treasure is worth it so is lab.. underwater and spooky aren't.. def. not
Thu Jun 17, 2004 6:51 pm
can you get items like a snorkle snout from the spooky map?
Thu Jun 17, 2004 7:04 pm
treasure and lab are
Thu Jun 17, 2004 7:07 pm
Yeah...lab map is great but is expensive. aobut 50,000 np per map piece, a week to get 50k, 50,000 x 9= about 450, 000 np. A lot for a new player.
Also, 9 weeks to get the money.

well, ive turned in full original treasure maps 5 times, and only got an unbuyable once, so i dont think its worth it that much
