The best tactic when the giant butterfly splits into 3 huge ones is in fact to just click any one.
Then lower your camera angle and watch the health bars, moving to the one that has the lowest health bars.
Two huge butterflies are possible so you have a 2/3 chance of contributing to ones that actually finish just by clicking any to start.
Waiting to click just lowers everyone's chance of finishing even two.
Stating directions is almost useless at first also: one because the butterflies shift quickly at first, and two because of the area and placement of the events and bank, NPC's etc., North is not where most people expect. So when you call East, or West, etc. a lot of people go the wrong way because they were not oriented North to begin with.
I could see making the butterflies different colors but turn down your graphics and just watch for the health bar that's the lowest and you will be fine.
I agree on the rewards but it's become Jagex's way - this is the same crap they pulled with Green Santa's all over again. Introduce new prizes in an event where you get tokens/tickets/maps, or whatever with very low drop rate as a teaser then put it in Treasure Hunter.
The whole Green Santa thing, and these new events, actually got me to STOP buying keys. It's basically a form of bait and switch, but that's where Jagex is atm. The simple solution is just don't get the new items, you don't need them. There are/will be so many in game they will be nearly worthless by the end of the TH promo/event anyway (buy then if you want some) and Jagex is not promising to never release them again so value at the end will be very low.
Since Jagex burned me on the Green Santa's (I lost over 3 billion) my solution has been to adjust my expectations. I don't need/try to get all the junk anymore.
Tip: For most people: holding down the center mouse scroll wheel lets you alter/adjust the camera angle and view directions easily in game.
