[edit] Co-ordinates
While doing co-ordinates, you must have a chart, sextant, and watch in your inventory. Think of it as the RuneScape equivalent of geocaching. If you don't have those, talk to the professor in the Observatory to get the chart, Brother Kojo at the Clock Tower for the watch, and Murphy at Port Khazard for the sextant. You will also need a spade to dig up the chest.
If you're doing a level 3 scroll, you will be attacked by an NPC. If you're in the Wilderness, it will be a Zamorak wizard who can use Flames of Zamorak. If you're in a non-Wilderness area, you will be attacked by a much stronger Saradomin Mage who can use Saradomin Strike and wields a super poisoned Dragon Dagger. If you do not kill the mage before attempting to dig again another mage may appear at which point all mages will need to be killed before digging again.
Coordinate clues do not appear in level 1 clues. The coordinates 0,0 centre at the Observatory. Top of the world (northern Iceberg) is about 30 North, southern Pest Control about 18 South, western Lunar Isle about 12 West, and eastern Mos Le'Harmless about 40 East.
A high resolution Runescape world map marked with treasure trail coordinates is also available here.
