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 ;)
Nice that he fixed the old 10x10 catacomb runs for higher level maps... we use to do that a lot when the update first came out.
Thanks for the info though, I was exactly level 25 when I started that catacomb.

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:
yup... had nice rooms.

Sounds like you got super lucky. No teleports probably helped you finish at a lower level and has something to do with it
Returning to the well on 5 occasions while clearing the catacomb countered the "No teleports", so I would guess I would have been around the same level.
