Incredibly low drop rate for this quest item on the West coast Beach of Westfall. Quest is obtainable by killing Murlocs and recieving a treasure map which starts the quest for Captain Sanders Hidden Treasure
Must have killed 500-600 Murlocs at this point without recieving this map. I have heard it could be as low as a 0.4% drop rate. I have also spoken with other players on the west coast beach of Westfall and they haven’t seen the map either.
You will have nightmares about Murlocs now. I wouldn’t do it. Mrrggll of doom is coming for you while you sleep.
It’s a 1.5% drop rate which is very low. They can certainly look into this but I don’t think it’s actually bugged, I think you’ve been incredibly unlucky is all.
On the last two characters where I was actually FARMING for it I had the best success in groups so you can clear out murlocs quickly, the important thing is to kill as many as possible as quickly as possible.
This warlock I’m just going to wait until level 30 and farm for it then so I can just DoT the entire coastline and make quick passes up and down.
Well if that is so my bad luck continues because I just killed another 200 at least tonight and still nothing all up that makes at least 800. When is it enough to show there is a bug been trying for this quest since Lvl 16 i’m now Lvl 22 and thats just from killing murlocs.
Ok so if the drop rate is 0.5% that is 1/200 if the drop rate is 1.5% thats 1/67 all a whole lot less than what I have experienced.
It is my assumption that either the Quest is bugged or drop rates are bugged in the entire game.
The fact I have asked near everyone else on the beach when i’ve been there and nobody has seen the map either should also prove something is going on with either this quest or drop rates in general.
Thank you for your time please Blizzard look into this.
Got the map on second murloc kill. It’s completely random and arbitrary
