My Druid main who got to Renown 21 first and completed the Rumors of the Jeweled Whelplings quest kept picking up all the clusters maps, but my shammy alt who is the JC can't pick up a single pattern and she's now 22. She has used up probably 8-10 blacksmithing shovels and that's about 20 charges each not to count the expedition packs. The JC has also bought the map from Jakes 3x. Will keep trying but either I missed a quest line or something tethered to this but this is bad RNG.

  1. Prequest: Loot [item=202081] from [npc=190056] and complete item quest Funding a Treasure Hunt
    It never dropped for me during lvling, but always dropped from 1-st NPC when i got there at max lv
    So you buy [item=198854] from [npc=189226] and find the first treasure [object=381045] - it is intro treasure, and you get 1-st map for free

  2. Search and loot all the random treasure chests you can find

    • [object=376587] renown 2 with [faction=2507]

    • [object=383735] renown 5 with [faction=2507] and will need to buy [item=191294] (buy/craft alot, you will always want to have them in your bags)

    • [object=376426] renown 16 with [faction=2507]

    They spawn all over the Dragon Isles and have similar loot, just a little bit different mechanics and unlock at certain reputation with [faction=2507].
    And i think that every chest in every zone can drop all 9 maps in random order

  3. You can get 6 maps before Renown lvl 21 with [faction=2507] and 5 more after.
    2 maps are from intro quests and 9 are from random treasure chests drop

  4. Hard part is to loot the map from random treasure chest and the rest is easy.
    Use the map and it will highlight the location of the treasure
    Treasure icon will be visible when you enter the subzone (Waking Shores, Azure Span , so on)
    Loot the treasure and get the reward
