Anno 1404 Treasure Hunting: Buy cheap Treasure Maps with an Exploration Ship for valuable resources. Avoid corsairs and get rewards.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Purchase Treasure Maps. The source states to always buy the cheap ones, as the reward size is not proportional to the map cost, especially for expensive maps.
  2. 2
    Use a single Exploration Ship to raise treasures from the maps.
  3. 3
    Control your ship to avoid corsairs, regardless of their number.
Tips
  • This method requires only one Exploration Ship and can yield valuable resources at a lower cost than the Trade Window.
  • The primary disadvantage is that the received resources are totally random; you might get items you already have in abundance.
  • The risk is not high if you manage your ship to avoid corsairs.
  • Rewards can be great, making it generally worth your time.
  • This is the only viable option in Story Mode or when playing by yourself.
