Treasure Key in the hunt
Breaks the seal on a Treasure Chamber. Plan the approach and the exit before carrying the key into a contested lane.
- When the locked chamber is close enough to a safe route that the reward justifies the detour.
- Clear the approach before starting the interaction.
- Use a lookout while the carrier opens the lock.
Turn access into a route / route timing
Identify the lock and nearest extraction before crossing the map with the key.
- Loot and Farming gives the key route a value target instead of an empty-room chase.
- A key is not progress until the chamber loot reaches camp.
- Compare Treasure Key with the alternatives before spending a rare material.
Keep, replace, or skip
Keep Treasure Key when it makes the next route decision clearer. Replace it when another option solves the same problem with less risk, cost, or setup.
- Open the related class, build, or map before the next hunt.
- Test the choice on the route where it is meant to work.
- Save the working direction in the Build Planner or field library.
