New Clue
Err, sorry if I'm posting in the wrong place, I'm a wiki noob =P

I got a Level 2 clue:

"Cry in Catherby archery shop.

Bow or curtsey before you talk to me.

Equip a round red and black snelm,

a hard leather body and an

unblessed silver sickle."

I believe its new?

I believe from what I've read on the RuneScape forums, items needed for some Clue Scroll's are now slightly random (selected from a list of several items), I've also had something similar.

i found this:

Beckon in the Digsite, near the eastern winch. Bow or curtsy before you talk to me. Equip a pointed red and black snelm, snakeskin boots, and an iron pickaxe.

its very similar to another one, is that snelm a blood'n'tar snelm btw? Pryon 18:02, August 8, 2010 (UTC)

Wow
Since when did this page go so far downhill? It used to be as short and concise as possible. I think we should remove all of the superfluous information about how to obtain common items such as armor and just make it a wiki link if someone does not know where to get them. This will clean up this page a lot and lower the size of this page. It was already a big page to begin with without all of the unneeded and long-winded explanations that were added. If you support me making this article much shorter and more concise please post support below. Once I get a few I will go through the entire document and do some additional editing (I have already removed some of it). -Sardaukar857 18:14, August 6, 2010 (UTC)

No concrete scan locations?
I had another two fishing colony scans, one behind the falconry area and another just south of the entrance to Piscatoris

Looking at the number of spots in each region, it doesn't seem too unlikely that the next clue could really be in any arbitrary location within the specified range.

new location chaos tunnels
i found a new location in the chaos tunnels from a scan clue scroll.

its at the deadly red spiders near the moss giant entrance.

i couldnt edit the page so i just had to tell it here.

someone please edit.

It seems to me that the location near Brother Galahad and the one near the Champion's Guild have the exact same map image. How do you know which to go to?

Pages
I think Treasure Trails Guide and Full Treasure Trails Guide overlap a lot and information can be cut out, I suggest a page called Treasure Trails Guide (what to do when you get them, what coordinates mean, how to do puzzle boxes etc) and Treasure Trails Locations (coordinates, scans, puzzle solutions etc). I also think having scrambled and solved pictures for the puzzle boxes isn't necessary. PikachuMayhem 18:53, August 9, 2010 (UTC)
 * Agree about overlap. Disagree about un/solved puzzle pictures. Not everyone already knows what they look like. We need to provide information for new people and not just veterans. Mamabear47 17:25, August 15, 2010 (UTC)

Chaos Tunnel Room Numbers?
In the scan clue information for Chaos Tunnels, some list room numbers, others are vague like "next to" instead of a compass direction. "Next to" needs to be fixed. And where are these room numbers to be found? I've checked this wiki and the rs knowledgebase and map, and I'm not seeing numbers. Mamabear47 09:07, August 14, 2010 (UTC)

Not sure where this would be catagorized and can't find answer
"The cheapes water for miles around, but they react badly to religious icons."

I am pretty sure this is Nardah but I don't know what to do there. I talked to almost every one there including water salesman, prayed at the shrine and searched boxes, crates, and bannana trees. Does anyone know what I need to do and where to put the answer?

 * Try the Bandit Camp. I'm not sure where their water would be, perhaps the bar, but they definitely react badly to religious icons, seeing how if you're wearing some sort of God item, they attack you. :P 16:37, August 18, 2010 (UTC)
 * I just got that same answer on the RS forums, I was so focused on Nardah I didn't try to think of other posibilities. Does any one know what page the answer to this clue scroll should be. Darth Paramecium 16:45, August 18, 2010 (UTC)
 * The answer is already on this page. Maybe you typed it wrong when searching or something. :( 16:48, August 18, 2010 (UTC)

The Scans page is very useless.
We need something better as a guide on the Treasure_Trails/Guide/Scans page. Maybe something like this:

Here's an example image I made (and tried to upload, not sure if it worked correctly)

Clearly I'm incapible of doing the job, but perhaps someone is up for it? And making it look neat? Godel 02:31, August 27, 2010 (UTC)



I like what you did, it would have saved me from the severe frustration and anger I currently have at all 6 of my attempts at this scan clue failing. Dsctatom 04:17, August 28, 2010 (UTC)

It's a very good idea. Do you have access to information for all the locations? Henneyj 23:45, August 30, 2010 (UTC)

I made a picture of a clue I had at Zanaris. Here you go: http://img837.imageshack.us/img837/7779/elitescanzanarisgatemin.png this is the best I could do. Grtz Soanvolck.


 * Besides what's on the Treasure_Trails/Guide/Scans page, no XD. Also I don't really have the proper image skills to do this myself, nor would it be very accurate. I think we need someone that has the skills as well as a decent knowledge of the locations to do it instead. Godel 11:18, September 8, 2010 (UTC)


 * Really like the 1 image map with all locations, i think this does need to be done.. or something similar. This page is need a uniform structure Gaz 10:59, September 24, 2010 (UTC)
 * I agree with this clever idea however there are many scans out there that have not been recorded. So I think this should wait untill most, if not all, scans have been recorded. If not then this pic will be edited over and over again. 06:30, January 18, 2011 (UTC)

Compass location groups
Is there any reason in particular why the compass locations are grouped into southwest, southeast, etc? I think it would be much more useful if grouped into runescape regions: Agarnia, kandarin, morytania, etc Henneyj 23:29, August 30, 2010 (UTC)

hihihihihihiihihihihiihihiihiihihiiihihihihihui wiki is awesome

Scans... What. A. Mess!
I just had a look at some of the scans and they are a complete mess! Can someone organise them so that they are a little easier to read? I'd do it myself but I'm busy gathering more information on Elite Treasure Trial clues. Don't worry about me making the mess. I organise my info. 06:26, January 18, 2011 (UTC)

Chart, sextant and watch absolutely required for coordinate clues?
Would it work to just dig in the spot the coordinate is without having a watch, sextant and chart or are they absolutely needed else you can't get the next clue? Because, I'm digging at the exact same spot the person is shown in the picture in the guide, but it isn't working. XJoMan112x 00:05, February 6, 2011 (UTC)

You absolutely need them otherwise you won't find anything. Cortanakya 15:03, February 13, 2011 (UTC)

New coordinate
I found a new coordinate: 15 degrees 48 minutes north, 13 degrees 52 minutes east

Any clues?

77.188.242.78 17:23, March 15, 2011 (UTC)

And another new coordinate :/

04 degrees 41 minutes north, 03 degrees 09 minutes west

77.188.180.65 23:30, March 16, 2011 (UTC)

I have a new one as well: 16 degrees 20 minutes north, 12 degrees 45 minutes east. I'm working on figuring mine out now. Dsctatom 22:38, March 15, 2011 (UTC)

Handled mine. Yours is roughly where the old clue on top of Edgar's cave on Trollheim was. Dsctatom 22:58, March 15, 2011 (UTC)

I have the 27 paces on Mos Le'Harmless, and all the places that have pictures on here is not it :( could screen shots be taken for the rest of the locations that dont have pictures?
 * Once you find it, how bout you upload it? ( 22:34, May 9, 2011 (UTC)

Neitiznot-Jatizso clue group?
I do not see the Neitiznot/Jatizso clue group on the Compass page. Am I missing it? If wiki needs it, I'll add that I almost got my tail kicked because Another Fansite (*cough*) did not include the Jatizso northeast mine area on their list of possibilities.. Scroll reads "This scroll will work on the Fremennik Isles of Jatizso and Neitiznot. Orb scan range: 16 paces." >.> Pokemama 02:23, June 9, 2011 (UTC)

What if we can't equipt a certian item?
What do we do if we arent a high enough level to equipt something, but it is required to equipt the item? what do we do?
 * Start leveling. (: 16:44, June 9, 2011 (UTC)
 * but i hate ranging!!!! lol
 * You could also drop the clue and wait for another one if you really don't want to level to complete the treasure trail. 17:22, June 9, 2011 (UTC)

Compass picture in Scan section
There was a compass solution picture in the Scanning section for "East of the Eild and north of Nardah" for the location "Near the north edge of Uzer". I have removed the picture and moved the text solution among the other picture-less ones as it wasn't a Scan solution picture. Does anyone know if it is truly a Scan solution and only requires a picture?
