Treasure Trails/Full guide/Medium
For the main article, see Treasure Trails.
Coordinates
During a Treasure Trail, a coordinate clue is a clue scroll that contains a set of coordinates. Much like the real-world longitude and latitude geographic coordinate system, where angular coordinates correspond to your north-south and east-west position, coordinates in Anarchy indicate a precise point somewhere on the surface where the next clue scroll, or potentially the treasure casket, is buried. Coordinates are presented in the following format:
3 degrees 0 minutes north/south
2 degrees 0 minutes east/west
In Anarchy, one square of space is equivalent to 15/8 (1.875) minutes of arc. 0°00' degrees north and 0°00' degrees east is located in the middle of the Observatory.
Although a chart, sextant and watch may be used to determine one's present coordinates, players only need a spade in their inventory to dig up the clue. Those items can be obtained from the Clue Scroll Handler in Edgeville.
Following is a list of all known coordinate clues and their corresponding locations. • Remember: You must have a spade with you to dig up coordinate clues.
Note that some of the clues may require skill requirements before you will be able to get to that location.

Emote clues
Emote clues involve performing an emote in a particular location, sometimes while wearing certain equipment. These types of clues are featured in all levels of Treasure Trails.
Hot Cold

Hot Cold clues are clues in which a strange device will tell the player in the chatbox whether the player is Hot (close to) or Cold (far away from) the intended location to dig. A strange device can be purchased from the Clue Scroll Handler in Edgeville.
To find your location, click on the strange device and it will tell you how close you are to the treasure. Its temperature is based on the distance of the treasure from the player, measured in the number of steps it would take to reach the treasure. Then, teleport or walk to another location, and check to see if the strange device has gotten warmer. Repeat to pinpoint a location.
Clue | Image | Map | Location notes |
---|---|---|---|
Use Watson's strange device somewhere hot and dry. | Teleport to the Kalphite Cave (under Slayer Teleports), leave the cave, then keep walking east until the strange device says it's visibly shaking. |
Maps
Map clues are an image of a location the player needs to search to advance along their trail. Maps are rough pictures of a very local area. If the map leads to an X, the player needs to take a spade to the place indicated on the map with the X and dig there. If the map leads to a crate or chest, it must simply be searched. Maps can include landmarks such as buildings, fish to indicate fishing spots, roads, rivers, bridges, and so on.
