It will take {{Time|8160}} with a 4.25s action time (not including paper making time) plus another {{Time|5820}} to get the Spyglass, assuming an Artefact value of 1. Without upgrading the map, it is expected to take {{Time|12960}}. While it might be ''slightly'' faster to not upgrade the map, if you run out of excavation actions and need to make a new map, it'll greatly increase the time it takes to get the Spyglass. It will also allow you to double your spyglass drop (by refining the map all the way) which can be donated to the museum. | ||
