Treasure Chest under house? (castle)

Yeah - I had one under an 18x18 on Trammel Ocarina Island last month. Luckily it was only a level 4.

You have two main options.

  1. Put it back into your chest or Davies Locker for over 30 days, and it will reset. When it resets, it will tell you it's having trouble reading the map - just go open other maps and a few minutes later you'll be able to decode it again for the new location. (note this requires having cartography on you)
  2. If you don't want to wait, just get rid of it (toss it in luna or brit garbage for cleanup points, or donate to brit library for library points).
  3. Outside chance - not bloody likely in fel: If you can get access to a Castle, to enter it, you might be able to dig it from the interior courtyard - though given the cramped confines, that might not be very safe even in Trammel.
I happened to catch the owner of the offending house in my instance at home, and gave it to him to see if he could dig it with his T-hunter. He thought it was cool that he had a map for his house location.

Its a level 6, so into the davies locker it goes for a month. Kind of a bummer though.

Thank you for the advise.
