Little tip for faster Tol'vir archaeology grind

[stuicy]

Searched and found nothing posted before. Sorry if it turns out to be a repost.

Tol'vir sites only appear in Uldum, and sometimes you can be waiting ages for one to pop up.

What I've been doing is digging just TWICE in the Tol'vir dig site, then waiting 15 mins (fly and dig another site then come back maybe), and hey presto, the site reset, rinse and repeat, dig twice, do another site, come back, dig twice.... etc.

This way the next place you dig is always going to be Tol'vir, if only for two fragments.

You can use this for other races too I guess, but the Tol'vir one is the most annoying for me.

Hope this helps some people.

wow if that works that would be amazing, when i hit 350 ill report back and +rep

[gippy]

if this works ill marry you :P

Edit Doesnt work for dwarf, dug up 2 in pyrox flats, left 1.

Did 4 other digs more north, took me about 30 mins, came back dug 1 and it was done.

This does not seem to work for me. I got 2 dig spots in Uldum digged twice in each spot went to other spots and came back 20 mins later. I could only dig once when I got there after 20 mins, I even relogged at my second spot but once again only!

Does not work on US.

[R4ndomizer]

Will try on europe...if that works i love you man ^^

[Albaek]

Does not work on EU servers.
I had to Tol'vir spots, found 2 artifacts on each, went away for about an hour, came back and sadly no reset.

Nevertheless, this should be in the exploit section rather than the guide section as this is clearly not intended.

[R4ndomizer]

Jep, EU didnt work :-(.

[Mr. Parts]

100% does NOT work.

Took this a step further. Had 3 areas in Stranglethorn mined 2 out of each and went to bed. Went into town the next day and now about 14 hours later I could only mine 1 (from the 1st one I did, not where I ended) and the area was gone.

Sorry either it was hotfixed or maybe you got lucky

[stuicy]

I've been trying to recreate this today and can't get it to work myself either anymore. I must have had 2-3 dig sites spawn consecutively on the same spot, or it's something that's been fixed.

I'm very sorry for misleading people, it wasn't intentional. Please delete this thread.

Sorry again.

Actually, I have seen this kind of behaviour, but it only happened to me after one of the almost daily server resets. My guess is that it also resets the dig count for each site.

[Iscariote]

If that's true... you can keep digsites until you get 4 in uldum, and mine twice from each one every day. It's not great, but I might do it, a quick trip and getting ~40 fragments every day sounds nice.

this has to work somehow.. I had a bugged spawn in feralas (tripod was suggesting me to go out of the dig site),
also this spawn was the 3th (last) in that digsite.. Next day I went there to finish and i could dig 3 brand new spawns

[ludsor]

Whenever I log off in Kalimdor for the night, the dig sites do not reset the next day but EK does.... same vise versa.

^ this ! I had exactly the same problem. What I noticed was that between the 3rd (the bugged one) and the "refill" of the digsite there was a server maintenance (wednesday). Perhaps someone can confirm that THIS works :>
