Found Bottle - But can not find treasure (The Crooked Masts)

    Hey, i recently found a bottle. Inside was a map with a "X", go there to find a treasure i guess.

    This is the map: https://img3.picload.org/image/dodwirpl/seaofthieves07.05.201812_09_24.png

    So, i am 100% on the right island (The Crooked Masts), and i checked 100% that im on the right position on the island.

    I used my spade 100 times ... but there is no damn treasure. I left the island and came back after another journey. But still, i cannot find this treasure ...

    I'm doing something wrong, or is this maybe a knows issue/bug ? thx for any help!

    It looks pretty obvious. If you've dug in the right place and it's not there then it must be a bug. It's not a bug that I have come across though and I have seen quite a few. Also, from my experience, it's not possible for another crew to have dug it up.

    @darkwg mysterious mistery indeed! I cannot say I have had the same problem yet. Report it to devs as a bug... make sure you are actually at the right place though!

    Good luck with those phantom chests in the future!

    Sadly, this isn't a map i can offer help with unless I were in the game with you. Presuming your in the correct area, I'd wager a bug exists.

    But, I've had tricky chests too which were in the right area and made sense to their X mark AFTER I stumbled into them, long after spending forever on the wrong "level" or some other silliness.

    This happened to me with the same island but a different x location. It was slightly off by location from the map say 10 paces. I know this isn’t the answer you wanted but mine was easier as it was on a walk way. Sorry about the frustration, I know the feeling!

    Thx for all of your answers. Yeah it seems to be that it was a bug. Sadly i had to go shortly after i made this thread. Now i returned into the game, but now its no longer there as an active mission.

    But i will report this as a bug, i have the time when it happend and which island and a screenshot, i hope this will help the devs to search for this bug and deal with it :)

    EDIT: I just opened a bug ticket for it!
