How to complete Expert Treasure Hunter in Disney Dreamlight Valley

By Daniel Hidalgo | 2025-07-31 13:24:27
Disney Dreamlight Valley is full of exciting quests and hidden challenges, and one of the trickiest is the Expert Treasure Hunter duty. This mission is part of the Treasure Hunt event, introduced in the Mysteries of the Skull Rock update. If you're struggling to figure out how to complete it, this guide will walk you through every step to earn your rewards.

What Is the Expert Treasure Hunter Duty?


The Expert Treasure Hunter task requires players to dig up and open two special golden Memory Shards during the Treasure Hunt event. Unlike regular duties, this one doesn’t provide clear instructions, making it confusing for many players.

How to Complete the Expert Treasure Hunter Duty


  • Find Golden Treasure Cracks
    • Each day, one golden treasure crack spawns randomly in any biome.
    • Search all areas of the valley to locate it.
  • Dig Up the Crack with Your Royal Shovel
    • Once found, use your Royal Shovel to dig it up.
    • You’ll receive a clue pointing to another location.
  • Follow the Clue to the Hidden Treasure
    • Travel to the spot mentioned in the clue.
    • Break the obstacle there to reveal a golden chest.
  • Collect the Golden Memory Shard
    • Opening the chest grants you a special Memory Shard.
    • Repeat this process twice to complete the duty.

  • Expert Treasure Hunter Reward


    Completing this task earns you the Pirate Skull Motif, a customization item for Touch of Magic creations. This reward is especially useful if you’re aiming to unlock the Pirate Mast, the final prize for finishing the entire Treasure Hunt event.

    What Is the Treasure Hunt Event?


    The Treasure Hunt is a limited-time event where players search for golden treasure cracks across the valley. Similar to past events like Cheshire Chaos, this one focuses on exploration and puzzle-solving.

    Event Duration & Future Availability


    • Start Date: July 30
    • End Date: August 12
    • After the event ends, it may return in the future, but nothing has been confirmed.


    Since the next major update (Inside Out-themed) is coming soon, this event helps keep players engaged while waiting for new content.

    Final Tips for Success


    • Check all biomes daily—the golden crack spawns in a different location each day.
    • Use the clues carefully—they lead directly to the hidden chest.
    • Complete the duty early—this ensures you don’t miss out on rewards before the event ends.


    By following these steps, you’ll master the Expert Treasure Hunter duty and claim your pirate-themed rewards in Disney Dreamlight Valley!
