You guys getting any work done? New archaeology rework release soon? Considering all other professions has gotten reworks and archaeology has stayed the same for 7 years, i automatically assume this new archaeology rework is gonna be pretty great right? Any day now im sure!
I’m currently farming pandaland archaeology and my brain is rotting out with black mold as we speak. Some quality of life changes would be nice.
What would you like to see?
Cosmetic dragon masks and insignia that can be stuck to any chest armour or shoulder piece!
Ngl I don’t massively mind the archaeology mechanic, I’m mostly sad that they just plain forgot it after SL. I get why it wasn’t appropriate in SL, but to then not restore it… that’s odd. It didn’t have to be amazing and engaging gameplay, it just needed a few cosmetics and toys and let people who can be bothered with the grind do the grind.
(But also bad luck protection on all rare items so you don’t end up doing 400 mundane items and still not getting the mount.)
I’m kinda hoping that the datamined gear we’ve seen over the last weeks/months is part of it. I like archaeology and I want it back and part of the game again; it being cool and fun is a big plus of course.
i understand archeology not being a thing on shadowlands because that’s where creation engine were, but dragonflight? whose cinematic literally began with statues and monuments? honestly a waste.
- Archaeology needs some work, the developers aren’t happy with how it played out or ended up. Although collecting artifacts and exploring history is thematic to exploring the Dragon Isles, the excavation mini-game of Archaeology is not currently planned to return. They’d like to figure out something better to do with it in the future.
Archaeology is something that needs some work. We’re not super happy with how that played out. It’s not something that’s going to be part of our initial efforts in Dragonflight. Thematically, the idea of learning about the relics, that’s going to happen across the Dragon Isles, but we’re not returning to the excavation mini-game form of it. We want to figure out something better to do with that in the future.
If it comes it will be part of a future expansion, It’s unlikely to be part of an update patch.
Probably the biggest issue i have is the fact that it takes like 2 seconds every time you survey for the telescope or whatever it is to even spawn and show you which direction to dig. If you’re farming something very rare these 2 seconds can literally turn into hours lmao, and its not unheard of that people have done 6000+ solves and not gotten the rare they’re after (which is absolutely insane btw), bad luck protection not even once i guess?
They reworked it out of existence
Dont you just hate rare items in mmos
Except ofc that it still exists.
Cute, you have no idea how long 6000 solves through boxes takes 
The only rework that has to be done, is the godd*** buff on the Ultramarine Qiraji Battle Tank. I’m well over 300 Tol’vir solves and nothing yet, sick to my stomach for farming this.
Atleast make the Tol’vir digsites pop more often, it would solve alot of issues. Can’t stand the boxes Mantid farm tbh.
I got the scepter mount, 300 tol’vir solves i cant believe it. I knew i should’ve cried on the forums earlier
