Route from the northern synchronization point
If you already have the Ambergris Key map, the final run is short. Start at the northern synchronization point on Misteriosa and resist the obvious jump down from the perch. The treasure is behind you, back toward the ruins.
Follow the upper path into the ruin-side cave area, aiming for the waterfall and the patch of tall white flowers. The dig prompt appears on the floor near the fountain pond, in the grass or mound right beside the water feature. If you are standing at the statue and nothing appears, shift around the nearby grass instead of leaving the area.
From the northern synchronization point, turn around and stay high; jumping down usually sends you away from the Misteriosa 271, 178 dig spot.
Misteriosa 271, 178 treasure reward
| Reward | Details |
|---|---|
| Heavy Shot Strength upgrade plan | The ship upgrade plan from the Misteriosa 271, 178 buried chest. |
| Reales | Expect a Reales payout; player records place it around 3,000-3,600 Reales. |
Digging up the chest gives you the Heavy Shot Strength upgrade plan for the Jackdaw. The Reales payout is listed differently across player records, with 3,000 Reales and 3,600 Reales both appearing, but the upgrade plan tied to this chest is the important reward.
Common Misteriosa treasure map mix-ups
The biggest mistake is searching Misteriosa for the map. For this chest, the map comes from Ambergris Key, and the dig site is on Misteriosa. The map found on Misteriosa is a different treasure map entirely.
Another easy mistake is dropping to beach level or wandering the temple ramps. The 271, 178 chest is in the upper northern area behind the viewpoint, close to the fountain and pond. If the prompt does not show immediately, stay beside the water feature and check the grass or mound around it rather than moving to another landmark.
After this chest, the nearby search many players run into is the separate Misteriosa treasure map around (272, 175). That map points to Kingston (631, 152) and is tied to the Gilded Hull design, so keep it separate from the Ambergris Key map that leads to Misteriosa (271, 178).
