Avernus Wastes Treasure Map Farming & Location Guide

This will give you a rough idea of the area you need to be in for each map.
Click the map to enlarge, once you have identified the number of the map you are wanting to dig up, click the X button in the top right.
There is an "Overview" menu on the right hand side column, select the map location number and it'll take you straight to that section.



In the bottom right of the screenshots are the co-ordinates of where that chest or farm spot is located.
You can find the co-ordinates of where you are in game by pressing M and looking at the bottom left corner of your map.

These markers will show you the locations of the two map farming spots I use, If you are farming maps for gear, then I would suggest farming between 40 - 50 of them.


You might find that the following spot, in front of the number 6 treasure chest area is camped often, if it is just move onto the 2nd location further down.



This location is less frequently used, but you will come across Chain farmers that get their kicks from zooming through and mowing them down from under you whilst on their routes.
Just curse at them and wait for the respawn.



My preferred spot is here.
1) You are closer and have a straight line through the manes, less chance for anything to go wrong.
2) The rocks stop your forwards & backwards movement, less chance of losing alignment.
3) Those damn chain farmers don't see you hiding, and instead of stealing your kills, slam you in the side stopping them dead in their tracks......karma.



The chances are that the manes won't be stood there waiting for your arrival, so if they're not there when you do arrive, you can either sit and wait for them to return from their patrol, or you can go hunt them down, the latter is often the quicker when you get to know their patrol route.
Once you've mowed them down, they reset and the farming can commence.
Never fight for camping spots, it is a waste of time, if both of these spots are already camped then move to another instance with fewer people on it.

This one is a little obscure it is hidden in the crack of two boulders.
It is also probably the worst one to get to as it is close to a couple of mobs, so be careful when locating it.

If it is still hard to find, go to the back of Haruman's Hill to the summoning shrine, stand in front of the big Brazier, and head down the hill back towards the exit, it's nestled between the boulders on the right

In this screenshot I have used the "Soul Coin Cache" heroic as an easily identifiable reference point.
Be wary when digging this up, there is a Bloodsworn Smuggler doing the rounds and he has a tendancy to jump you from behind.

In the scabs, just passed the rez shrine, follow the left hand cliff and you should find it easily.

When the "Citadel Defense" heroic is on in the scabs, one of the portals is right next to the chest making it almost impossible to get without being interrupted.
If this is the case, either complete the heroic, transfer to another instance or wait it out until the heroic is finished before trying to dig up this chest.

If you are unlucky enough for the heroic to spawn whilst you're opening your chest, RUN, unless you're confident that you can take them on, but if you're needing this guide, the chances are you're not, SO RUN.
If you die whilst in the process of opening it, there is a chance you lose the map and the treasure.

It's behind the hut.

This is an awkward chest, you might find that you have to dig it up from the front, and then open it up from the back.

Be wary here there is a Bloodsworn Smuggler & Spined Courier doing the rounds, they have a knack of creeping up on you.

This one is easy to miss, you have to jump up the rocks to get to it.
Or if you know where, you can drop down the cliff ledges from the top level and land on the chest.
You also have to watch for patrols, there are a few including one very nasty boss.
