Check to make sure your datapad isn't full—if it is you won't get a waypoint for the mission.

Finished first 3 missions.
Biked 7km to treasure map wp in the middle of the graveyard.
Fought krayt til it was half dead.
Krayt disappears into thin air.
Treasure spawns inside a rock, is not viewable and can not be looted.
CSR's refuse to help.
Really, cool, @#&*ing game.
Learned a neat trick off of another thread, only works though if you have at some point targeted the item. Hit "shift - ctrl - and either ; or ' and you can cycle through your past targeted items. Very usefull for when a creature that you killed slides through a wall or into the ground. Then you can type /lootall or /harvest meat or whatever even if you cant see it to get the radial menu.

Also, if you can force your camera view inside the static object, you can click what you're looking for. Zoom in and go prone on top of it seems to usually work
Sorry, I haven't taken time to rad the entire thred, but I happen to be a melee weaponsmith. I can tell you all you ever need to know about having a scythe made fore you, having made quite a few in my time.
The first thing, you must have the schem. If you ask for one withgout having the schem, you are going to hear "I'm sorry" or a flat out "no" 99% of the time. The schem has 2 uses, and the most you can schem off of one use is 2...ever. So have that schem ready.
The second thing is the parts. Now if you want a good scythe, always have one of the following 3 things.
1. 5 yellow cubes (all the same serial) and 5 solidifying agents (all the same serial). One of each goes into making the schematic. Four go into cores, equaling 2 scythes.
2. 3 yellow cubes (again, same serial) and 3 solidifying agents (same drill) twice. This goes on that same equation of 1 for the schematic, but since you don't have a full 5 of each, it's 1+2 and 1+2.
3. 4 geonosian sword cores over 60 max damage. Now this is kind of relative, as I'll get into next, but with the materials I have, I make scythes in the 340s max damage with a 64 max damage core.
The small details: Yellow cubes range from 10-20 in either max or min damage. Solidifying agents range from 10-20 in max damage. Now with my 700 unit toughness neutronium steel, I've crafted cores that were 67 max damage (19 on the solidifying, 13 max on the yellow). The core only adds damage to the final result, it is not taken into consideration for the experimentation. The damage you get from experimentation is completely based on the materials the weaponsmith uses. This is server based, as well as what the weaponsmith has had access to (how long they have been collecting materials, how much money they have spent, what has spawned since they knew they needed high UT neutronium steel and high SR carbonite steel and phrik aluminum). Instead of trying to track down these resources, look for a weponsmith who has made a few good scythes before. They most likely have the resources necessary to make you a good one if you bring them the right stuff.
Hope I helped,
