A Hello Message!

Hello! Saint Cannon here. With the new release of Archaeology, myself, Shauny, Gaga Lady, Friendliness, Son, Suity, and Im Rubic created the Archaeology discord server (found here: https://discord.gg/SMKrvDg or https://friendly.gg/archaeology)! It has been a very exciting project working on mysteries guides, fleshing out methods on obtaining items, collaborating with the community on pylon and dropbox callouts, and so much more! It has been amazing to see the camaraderie and willingness to share information to help others despite the HiScore race. Additionally, it has been a humbling experience working alongside some of the pillars of the RS community. The Wiki team has been fantastic in helping us get things posted to the wiki for everyone to benefit from. I also want to thank all our Contributors and Staff on the Archaeology Discord. They have been fantastic in every aspect! Lastly, I want to thank Son, Guys, ChangingLane, Merds, Gaga Lady, Yurple, and PinkRoses for helping with details and for taking my West Virginian accent out of this document. Without them, I would sound illiterate.

So why this document? I have seen so many questions about ‘What do I do at this level? Where should I go? When should I do this mystery?’ The objective is to clarify things, give a sense of direction, and reduce overall frustrations! I will be breaking it down level-by-level on what you should be doing and when you should move on. I recognize this is likely not the most XP-efficient way of going about things, but it is a great foundation to build from. I hope you enjoy this and find it useful. If there are any comments to be made or any corrections you see, please contact me on discord Ty#9069 (that is a capital T) or in-game ‘Saint Cannon’.

As of October 19th, all the new Orthen information is up to date!

As of August 23rd, all the Senntisten information is up to date! If anything needs to be edited or added, please feel free to contact me.  Refer to the previous paragraph on how to contact me!

After finishing ‘The Spy Who Loved Metal’, ‘Wing Out’, and the collection for the Keshik ger pile, head to the Warforge!. To address why you want to start with the Stormguard Citadel vs. Warforge! boils down to Imcando metal pieces and resources. Though the rate of obtaining the Imcando metal pieces has increased, it is still best to dedicate most of this leveling block to obtaining the pieces. Additionally, the material resources are much more expensive than other places. By excavating the piles for a longer duration of time, you will gain more of the resources passively while uncovering artefacts. At any rate, once you are at Warforge! speak with Zanik to begin a cutscene. After the cutscene, head to the Gladiatorial goblin remains. While excavating, you may randomly receive journal pages for ‘The First Commander’ mystery. Collect five journal pages and turn them in to Zanik to complete the mystery.

Mephisto the Imp appears to the player 7 times in total. Talking to Mephisto will inform the player that they need to solve a slider puzzle in order to free them.

Upon completion of the puzzle and speaking to Mephisto again, the player will receive a die, each one reducing the chance to be teleported to a random chaos portal rather than the intended destination.

Mattocks

As you level up your Archaeology, you will unlock the ability to use better mattocks. It is important to keep upgrading your mattock as you progress, due to each mattock’s focus and precision, which will help you level up faster.


Precision determines the rate at which a player excavates an excavation hotspot or material cache. The speed at which an excavation progresses (as indicated by the blue progress bar filling) scales linearly with precision.

Focus determines the rate at which materials are found while performing an excavation. This rate is independent of the excavation progress.

As a general rule, the better the mattock, the more effective it is as an Archaeology tool.
