Were u down in any trap doors or anything?
Sounds weird to find a higher map than ur own lvl otherwise, but yeah idk, Maybe you wear like a billion magic luck or something!


No TD at all.

Maybe it has to do with the event?

"+30% Map Final Chest Quality"

I think the final chest thing means the final chest when on a map no?

Yes it happens
Just like when you well (for example) a lvl 20 and a lvl 25 drops as a side drop. Finish explore maps more often :evil:

Yup, think you are correct there, considering I was in a catacomb and not a Map... :D

This mostly happened to me when I was in a full group welling, never solo, but I agree with this logic also.

Thanks all... thread can be closed now that there is a chance of finding higher maps at the end of a catacomb.

my guess Rex is you started the maze between 25 and 29 ;) am i right ?

the map reward system has been changed half a year ago or so after it got abused too much probably ;) .
most people ( me included ) were farming little size mazes(10x10) with highlevel chars to get high maps ; now the map reward is not depending on charlevel but on mazesize ! <<

for my experience, highest i got on lvl 20 maze is lvl 40 map, highest on lvl 25 maze was 45 maps, highest on lvl 30maze was 50 maps. I guess thats the "new" key ("+20")
enjoy teh farming !


and i am sure it has nothing to do with the event because its about the final chest on maps , and i made this testings couple month ago when we figured out farming small mazes doesnt work anymore ;)

This will be the appropriate explanation. Actually, I never got to experience the OP high level map farming strategy on small maps... but that was obviously unintended so I'm glad it's good that it was fixed. I tend to have this scenario happen to me quite a lot, so if you haven't seen it much... I think maybe you're not finishing mazes enough :P

Rex, the event also did have an effect on your map drop but the uber chest quality bonus had nothing to do with it ;)

No Teleport Traps

That means you finish the cata faster without leveling as much (despite the small effect of the 10% exp boost), which is partly responsible for you ending the maze lower than the map drop. Good navigation and rooms also helps :thumbsup:
