I have farming and can get about 50 in about three hours… Is this good?

Do you mean burning (using) 50 Maps in 3 hours for resources like Gems, or gathering 50 Treasure Maps?

If the later, its time to stop that behavior.

I don’t know if it’s a lot to gather in that space of time unfortunately.

All I can say is that I’m sorry. I’m so, so sorry.

It’s only free if you don’t consider your time valuable.

Ok. Over time as you continue to play you will collect more Treasure Maps than you can possibly use. I’m guessing your a newer player and if so, use them now they are considered a decent return (of resources) in the early game. Later, Treasure Maps reach almost zero value as you progress.

Maps can be fun, for sure. Good luck getting a high score (and some achievements)!

I like to play treasure maps, but I also think they are under-rated. On PS4 you can buy two diamond-packs daily consisting of ~100 diamonds (on Sundays ~300), for 200 gems. So I collect tributes and play maps to get that 200 gems / day. There is no better way to get gems. Playing 150+ turn games nets me also 20-50 gem keys per day, lots of glory and glory keys too. IMHO I get resources at the same speed as guild legendary tasks and I don’t have to stare at the lottery machine AI.

Here is an example of a “fast” treasure hunt with decent rewards

Sure, the main fact is that **I like** to play/grind/farm this game mode, but I also argue that it can be profitable even in later game.

i know i could get more souls by doing a different battle each time but generally i get more souls by using the treasure maps than i would from battles

I like a treasure map too, man. Stick with them and the gems will soon add up.

But I question the efficacy of grinding them. I tend to find they mysteriously turn up.

btw digging the Stephen with a ‘ph’

Nice videos but ONE gem for over 200 moves is horrendous!  
OK, so you got 13 in the next one, crazy game!  
Its about time TH was reworked, it’s a fun diversion and I’ll occasionally burn a few, usually when it’s a TH event. If you use looping and exploding troops you’ll find that maps accumulate fairly easily without having to farm.  
Souls from th is a complete waste of time though, especially if you have Pharos-Ra, you can get over 600 from one explore battle, and over 350 without him. Souls and glory really shouldn’t be in vaults imo.

Made a new video on how I like to farm maps. The main focus is of course on how many times you cast Tyri / time. This was a lucky run, but that’s not important. It’s Tyri casts / min. Sure some other teams might be slightly better, but I’m already so used to this that I can’t change.
