Uncover the Secrets of the Treasure Hunt Event in Evony!
Overview of the Treasure Hunt Event
The Treasure Hunt event tasks players with exploring Pyramid Ruins scattered across the world map. These pyramids contain treasures that convert into event points, which determine your rewards. The event typically lasts around 10 days and alternates with other headline events like the Arctic Barbarians Invasion. Pyramid Ruins range from Level 1 to Level 5, with higher levels offering better treasures and more points. Your goal is to accumulate as many points as possible to unlock personal rewards, contribute to alliance goals, and compete on the server leaderboard.

How to Participate
Event Access:
Open the game during the event period (check the Event Center or the bull icon in the top right corner for "Treasure Hunt").
The event is active when Pyramid Ruins begin spawning on the world map.
Locating Pyramid Ruins:
Pyramids appear randomly across the map and persist for about 4 hours or until fully explored.
You’ll need to manually scroll the map to find them. There’s no "efficient mode" for spotting pyramids, but playing on a PC or using a screen rotation app on Android (to widen the view horizontally) can make searching easier.
Higher-level pyramids (Level 4 and 5) are rarer but yield more points.
Exploring Pyramids:
Click on a Pyramid Ruin to view its level and details.
Send troops to explore it, similar to gathering resources or attacking a monster. You don’t need to fight; it’s an exploration task.
Each exploration costs 20 stamina and counts toward a daily limit of 20 entries (resets at server midnight).
Solo exploration is recommended to maximize points, as sharing a pyramid with alliance members splits the rewards and reduces individual scores.
Scoring Points:
Once your troops return, the treasures they find (e.g., Pharaoh’s artifacts) are automatically converted into event points.
Point values depend on the pyramid level:
Level 1: Minimal points (sometimes as low as 0-500k).
Level 2: Low points (~500k-1M).
Level 3: Moderate points (~1M-3M).
Level 4: High points (~5M-10M).
Level 5: Highest points (~10M-80M, depending on luck and buffs).
Occasionally, you may find a Pharaoh’s Treasure Map while exploring, which reveals coordinates to another pyramid and grants bonus points when used.
Using Pharaoh’s Treasure Maps:
These maps are rare drops from pyramids or can be obtained by purchasing the $99.99 event package (5th tier).
Using a map summons a pyramid of random level (1-5) and awards instant points (e.g., 45M-50M) plus additional points from exploration.
This is a pay-to-win option, but F2P players can still compete without it.

Key Mechanics and Limits
Stamina: You have 20 explorations per day (20 stamina each). Plan wisely to hit higher-level pyramids.
Troops: Send strong troops to avoid being attacked by other players while exploring. Troops don’t lose power, but they can be targeted.
Alliance Sharing: Multiple alliance members can explore the same pyramid, but this reduces individual points. Solo runs are more efficient.
Pyramid Disappearance: Pyramids vanish after 4 hours or when the event ends, so act quickly.

Strategies for Success
Prioritize High-Level Pyramids:
Focus on Level 4 and 5 pyramids for the best point returns. Bookmark their coordinates if you can’t explore them immediately.
Early in the event (post-reset), higher-level pyramids are more abundant. Search diligently during these windows.
Optimize Your Search:
Play on a larger screen (PC/Mac) or use a screen rotation app to scan the map faster.
Some players report pyramids spawning in batches—if you find a Level 3, a Level 4 or 5 might be nearby.
Use teleport items to move closer to pyramid clusters and save march time.
Maximize Daily Entries:
Use all 20 daily explorations. Even Level 1-3 pyramids add up over time if you can’t find higher ones.
Time your marches so troops return before the daily reset.
Boost Your Rewards:
Research Mysterious Relic Exploration in the Alliance Academy to increase treasure yields (and thus points).
Send your best troops to improve the quality of treasures found.
F2P vs. Coiners:
F2P players can aim for 500M+ points by grinding daily and targeting Level 4-5 pyramids. This unlocks most personal rewards.
Coiners use Pharaoh’s Treasure Maps and bots (e.g., iScout) to dominate leaderboards, often hitting billions of points. Don’t aim to compete with them—just focus on personal goals.
Alliance Coordination:
Share coordinates of Level 4-5 pyramids with your alliance, but explore solo unless you’re prioritizing alliance ranking over personal points.
After hitting personal milestones (e.g., 500M), help weaker members by posting pyramid locations.

KNOWLEDGE IS POWER
Rewards
Rewards are divided into four categories based on your points and ranking:
Monarch Score Milestones (Personal Rewards):
Earned at specific point thresholds (cumulative across the event).
Example tiers:
5M points: Basic resources, speedups.
50M points: Gems, refining stones.
500M points: ~149k gems, treasure boxes, soul crystals (F2P achievable with effort).
Aim for at least 500M for the best F2P rewards.
Alliance Score Milestones:
Based on your alliance’s total points.
Rewards are modest (resources, speedups) and less exciting than personal rewards.
Monarch Ranking (Server Leaderboard):
Top 10 players get massive gem rewards (e.g., 300k gems for 1st place).
Requires billions of points—typically only achievable with spending or bots.
Alliance Ranking:
Top 10 alliances earn gems, honor, and other items.
Coordinate with your alliance to boost collective points.
Special Rewards:
Top 5 monarchs may earn a temporary castle decoration (e.g., Fort Frost, lasts 14 days).

Tips and Tricks
Timing: Pyramids are most plentiful after server reset. Hunt early each day.
Bookmarks: Mark Level 4-5 pyramids to revisit if you’re out of stamina or troops are busy.
Avoid Coiner Fatigue: Don’t stress about topping the leaderboard—focus on hitting 500M for personal rewards.
Watch the Clock: On the last day, pyramids may dwindle, so front-load your efforts.
External Tools: Some players use iScout (a bot) to auto-locate pyramids. This is controversial and not officially supported, but it’s how top coiners rack up points fast.

Common Pitfalls to Avoid
Wasting Stamina: Don’t burn all 20 entries on Level 1-2 pyramids early unless desperate—save some for later spawns.
Group Exploration: Sharing pyramids dilutes points. Solo unless alliance ranking is your priority.
Ignoring Troops: Weak troops might get attacked, delaying your march return.
Over-Reliance on Maps: F2P players don’t need Pharaoh’s Treasure Maps to succeed—grind the map instead.

Sample Daily Routine
Post-Reset (Morning): Spend 30-60 minutes scanning for Level 4-5 pyramids. Explore 5-10 high-level ones.
Midday: Check for new spawns, use 5-10 more entries on Levels 3-5.
Evening: Finish your 20 entries with any available pyramids, even lower levels if needed.
Repeat: Aim for ~50M+ points daily to hit 500M by the event’s end.
Conclusion
The Treasure Hunt event is a grind but offers some of Evony’s best F2P rewards, especially gems. With smart planning, a focus on high-level pyramids, and daily consistency, you can walk away with significant loot without spending a dime. For those willing to invest, Pharaoh’s Treasure Maps provide a shortcut to leaderboard glory—but the real treasure is in the strategy.
