Level-up Archaeology quicker (1-75)

[Rawrypop]

Not very difficult to accomplish, and it's usefulness could be debated.

Survey as normal, then when you dig up a node (Night Elven vase, etc) right click on it (the node) rapidly until you've finished collecting the fragments. This will start the bar to collect the fragments, and you can generally get 2-3 levels per find, (6-9 total levels from 1 dig site.) This only works up to 75 as that is when you stop gaining levels from picking dig sites. I searched for something similar, didn't find anything. Sorry in advance if somebody else posted this.

Edit: Gablithiel says you get level past 75, so I suppose it's more useful than I thought. The highest I have is 80 currently, just started today. Thanks Gab! =]

Edit2: I'm on US servers if this matters.

[Galithiel]

You still gain level after 75.
Will you get the fragments twice or only one time ?

[Zantas]

Brilliant find.

+rep from me by all means.

You only get the fragments once, but you get more than one level.

Doesnt work for me. EU-Server.

[Arklain]

Didn't work for me, and I also didnt get any fragments from it...three times...needless to say I won't be trying this again.

[eKqN]

Not working.

[Snowee]

even if it would work you would win nothing. you will need this fragments above skill 100

[_deborrah_]

Same thing happens in a quest in Twilight Highlands in a quest which you have to destroy kegs when you right click to keg you cast "Ignite" 1.5sec spell spam right click around 0.7sec of cast again and again the keg will explode twice or three times.

As mentioned, leveling beyond 100 requires fragments & keystones. This has absolutely zero impact on how fast you can max Archaeology.

The thread is about how to level archaeology 1-75 quicker, not whether it goes faster to max it or not.

... Still, you've got a point, makes it pretty useless.

confirmed NOT working US server 'the scryers'

Not working on US-Icecrown.

Further, "No Useless" -- as has been pointed out, a faster run up to 100 buys you less than nothing if you don't get the loot from the surveys while you do it.

If you want a couple genuine tips about how to level archeology faster, I suggest not completing a single project until you're skilled to 100 (not 98, not 99, but 100, and yes, that last skill point is a stone cold biatch). And never complete a project without fully loading it up with keystones.

Happy hunting!
