Treasure Map — Detailed Guide
A map to buried treasure
The Treasure Map belongs to Bob's Tall Tales, a DLC in ARK: Survival Ascended, and points its holder toward buried treasure. Its in-game text tells the player to use it to ping buried treasure and to keep it in the inventory while digging.
Getting a map
According to the ARK Wiki, a wild creature that leaves special loot on death can carry a Treasure Map, with a 5% chance of it appearing in that loot. The quickest way to collect maps, the wiki adds, is to hunt creatures that always leave a loot bag, mainly those that drop tributes. Our records count 17 loot crates that can contain the map, among them the 
Argentavis, 
Aureliax and Cave Minotaur ones, plus the 
Deathworm and Iceworm, Dilo Treasure Map and Large Dino Treasure Map entries.
Following the ping
Using the Consume button on the map in the player's inventory places a ping on the screen that marks where a treasure chest lies buried. At that spot a 
Shovel digs up the 
Buried Treasure Chest, which the player can then claim.
Weight and spoilage
A map weighs 0.1 and has a stack size of 1. The ARK Wiki gives it a spoil time of 172800 seconds.
