Treasure map, worth completing?

Sat Feb 12, 2005 3:03 pm

I tend to play scorchy slots a fair bit and win a fair few pieces of treasure map and I always just sell off the pieces rather quickly it wasn't until just recently I started to wonder if they where actually worth completing just curious to see what items people have received after completing the treasure map and if they think it is worth holding onto the pieces and completing the map for the reward.

Cheers

I think there's a list somewhere on PPT (Am I imagining it? I've used a lot of neo help sites, so it's possible it was somewhere else.) of roughly what you get for completing each map. It's np and some items that were probably well worth it back when you could get map pieces from the site for free, but are currently worth WAY less than the cost of the map. So from an economic standpoint, definitely not worth completing.

I think that from time to time, but very rarely you can get things like Draik Eggs, but I'd need someone else to confirm that before you go putting it all together. o_O

I don't think it's worth it. I just recently completed one, and I made 40k, but it costed a lot more than 40k, so I didn't make any profit. I wouldn't do it. But, you could get something rare! :)

Yeah, most users complete maps because they have a slight chance of recieving rarity 99s. Slight, though,

Treasure maps (other than lab map) are like a gamble. Almost like the Nerkmids in all truth. They're like a hobby for the super-rich. There's also the off-chance you could get something rare from them as well :)

Nadia the Peophin of Love: 1,800np
Two Rings Wizard: 1,300np
Wreathy Bed: 40,000np
Disco Petpet Bed: 6,000np
Garlic Kiko Plushie:29,000np
Neopoints: 12000
TOTAL:90,100np

Cost of Map: 100000aprox.

SO I got lucky and only lost 10k :)
