I just did an Expedition run using the Rumoured Treasure Map and the rewards ended up being a major let-down.
Given this particular treasure map can only be used once per week, the rewards should match those gained from the weekly challenges by offering powerful or pinnacle gear (pinnacle gear is my preference). As it is now, the only distinguishing feature the map has is that it's free to use.

Some of the upgrades that are on the "higher" end of the star chart that took a few weeks of earning Repute are a joke.. In addition to this Rumored Treasure Map, there are two others that come to mind. [b]Under One Banner[/b] - Earn bonus Treasure Coordinates by completing ritual activities with other Guardians who have Season of Plunder access. By the time you have unlocked the ability to purchase this upgrade, it's a waste.. In addition we're capped at 325 and it's already fairly easy to earn Coordinates by equipping a few pieces of the Plunder armor and run the same playlists or even do public events.. [b]Boastful Crew[/b] - Increases Savvy earned from completing Season of Plunder activities. Again by the time you have unlocked the ability to purchase this upgrade, it's a waste.. Not sure about anyone else, but I'm working on my 3rd reset without making the effort or going out of my way to specifically grind it out.
