The ‘Scraps of Mystery’ side quest in Final Fantasy 15 sends your team of perfectly-coifed black-clad boys on a search for hidden treasure maps throughout the overworld. These maps can be pretty tricky to find, so we’re here to provide a handful of tips to point you in the right direction.
With each map you find, you’ll begin a different phase of the quest — there are 14 map pieces in total, with 28 scraps and each separate quest unites the disparate pieces to form a single complete map. Look, if that doesn’t make sense, just keep scrolling.
