Seem like I haven’t found this in ages. I tired going to get one from Sparkfly Fen and found 1st pieces which should be dropped at Kryta region.
Now I head to Skritt king and doing Gomn Lab as well.Opend 4 chests but haven’t found the map pieces.

Maybe it was bugged from wintersday patch. Going to run skirtt king again and see if they are dropped.

It took me 14 chests if i remember correctly to get the 3rd map piece.
Getting unlucky is not a bug and 4 chests is definitely not a big enough sample size.
It should still drop normally.

The map pieces generally drop more often from chests in their respective zones, but players have reported “wanderer” map pieces dropping from chests outside their zones too. So it seems there’s a small chance of getting a completely random map piece from any chest.

Aside from that, the only advice I can offer is to keep targetting Maguuma chests. The place I got mine from was Caledon Forest, where I targeted the chests in the 4 JP’s repeatedly until I got it.

I just recently got another from the King’s chests in Brisban. I got another in that hidden mini-JP/discovery area in Sparkfly Fen.

Good luck.

That explains a lot. o_O I did one run of Drydock Scratch recently and got three different Enchanted Map scraps, which confused me quite a bit.

The other possibility is that the Map Pieces actually work like the Wintersday ornament scavenger hunt. The type of map that drops is determined by the TYPE of chest (i.e. Sylvari, Asuran, Charr etc.)

That’d make sense, actually, because you’d find the majority of e.g. Asuran chests in Asuran lands. But if so, it’s odd that nobody’s mentioned it before.

They probably overlap. There’s only 4 map pieces, but there’s actually 8+ different types of chests:

- Asuran chest (metallic, silvery, floats above the ground. There is a small and large version)
- Krytan chest (metallic, gold, sits on the ground)
- Pirate chest (wooden, has blue wave motifs on the sides, sits on the ground)
- Ascalon chest (metallic, steel/rust, sits on the ground. There is a small and large version)
- Sylvari chest (plant, sits on the ground)
- Shiverpeaks chest (wooden, keg-shaped, sits on the ground)
- Dredge chest (metallic, flat, sits on the ground. Opens up like a mechanical puzzle)
- Orrian chest (stone, cylindrical, sits on the ground)

Ok finally found 3rd map piece after running through 2 JP in Caledon forest. Decide to give sparkfly Fen another run. Turn out that I got 1st map piece again.

So definitely Sparkfly chests at Forcadence and Verarium delves give 1st piece.

You skipped the other chests in Sparkfly Fen?

  • Brokenhope Village – pirate – none
  • Hexfoundary
    • - asuran – none
    • - grand asuran – none
  • Ruined Vallah – pirate – none
  • Wavewrath Deeps – doesn’t match anything from Zaxares’ post – none
  • Vevarium Delves – pirate – none

Lion’s Arch

  • Urmaug’s Secret – pirate – none

Queensdale

  • Demongrub
    • - pirate – none
    • - pirate – none
    • - grand krytan – none
  • Cliffwatch Camp – pirate – none
  • Altar’s Windings – pirate – none
  • Altar Brook Vale – pirate – 1

Harathi Hinterlands

So that is around a 20% chance in this sample but it also includes a streak of 12 chests without any map piece.
