Can you find treasures without buying the map from Merchant?

[Cherry Man]

Or does buying the map spawn in more treasures that were not previously there? Thanks!

I'm also curious about this. No need in wasting resources when we have the internet.

Its just 1 spinel but whatever

The treasure will always spawn regardless of treasure map purchased status. There's a hint of treasure if you don't buy the map. You can listen to its hanging sound to know its somewhere nearby hanging on ceiling. Those treasure on the ground or table are straightforward and you don't even need treasure map to spot them.

Yes.

Thank you! I know it's only 1 but those add up after a while and given they're a finite resource I'd rather not spend them on something unnecessary.

Spinels are actually not even that hard to obtain. I have probably used up almost 50. If you complete the assignments, then you should have enough to purchase something that only costs 1.

Another question is whether the Deluxe Edition map perk shows the same items buying the in game maps of areas does? Can anyone confirm that?

These are additional treasures

As Madder said they're additional treasures with a modified icon on the map. The DLC map is not worth it to buy separately if you don't have the Deluxe already. Its usually garbage like blue / red tokens for the shooting gallery gacha and on rare occasion some lowbie reward. Its pretty much a joke at least so far up to chapter 5.

Also on a note about the merchant... Upgrade your weapons. It is safe to do this and sell later for weapons you don't plan to keep such as the initial shotgun/rifle (and obviously if you keep them then its safe naturally). They sell back for around 95% of the spend ptas... Once sold you can't get them back until NG+ though, but not really an issue.
