As someone who traditionally hated profs, i remember cata arch being one of the only times i took part due to the cool and unique rewards that, most importantly, significantly impacted my pve gameplay.
It rewarding strong lvl 85 BoA gear was also amazing. Made it worth doing past the start of the expac since you could get some really strong BoA items for alts at 85 as well.
Great content as always. I would like to add, that the original way to do Archaeology was as follows: Level to 100 via survey only. After 100, you get 5 skill points per solve, but not all races have items you want, so you would solve Orc, Vrykul, Nerubian, Draenei, and Dwarf or Fossil while you bank massive amounts of Troll, NE, and Tol'vir Fragments. Then once you hit max level archeology, you'd hopefully have 1000-2000 fragments to instantly solve for Jinrok, Tyrande's, or the Tol'vir items.
Later in Dragon Soul or so, Blizzard decided they didn't like this and put a cap of 200 fragments of one race at a time making the grind EVEN LONGER because now you would have to hit max level first and then grind out the fragments.
Please everyone... PLEASE ask Blizzard to remove the 200 fragment cap on Archeology!
Also, would be really nice if Archeology was in the Pre-patch just like Inscription was in the WOTLK pre-patch!
archaeology is a pretty cool profession worh lots of lore but it gets old fast.. they could really beef up the rewards
The only thing I did on my free Cata and MoP trials was fly around and do araceology. Great fun, looking forward to it.
Miss my old Professor title from this first time round. Barely anyone had it at the time
Thanks a lot for this video + the cata one about proffesion.
Looking forward the one about proffesion and gold making.
The fossilized raptor, yep I think so❤
When Cata first launched, I was maining my Hunter. DPS queues for Heroics were about 45 minutes or so. I used that time to plow through Archaeology. I thought it was delightful! I ended up with the bone raptor mount and pet who were adorable together. Also, bringing a keystone to a Heroic always made you look good to the group. I feel like they're going to sell for so much gold in Classic though that it won't be worth it using them that way.
Only thing I like about cata was the leveling experience and guild achievement just felt like a game where I can group with guildies and do shit together
This profession might be the only reason I play Cata. I loved doing this so much haha
Is there a conclusive awnser regards to how many fragments we will be expecting to receive from digging up a digsite? What I could find was that the latest update they made to the system was in Cataclysm Patch 4.3.0 (2011-11-29): The number of fragments per survey was increased to 5-9. (it used to be 3-6 at higher skilllevels?
Archaeology the new best profession. Fishing bumped down to #2
if you are going for the sword for example, dont use any troll fragments until you reach max Archaeology. its way more annoying to farm troll later on, cause you get less of troll fragment sides.
Can you find the 359 items before Cata launch ???
@@JS-be8ll yes i think you can, atleast thats what it said when i looked it up, but you need 425 skill and at that point you can wait until it drops and you can reach max and skill with the troll fragments to max.
@@TheTodesrolle you can, it's been confirmed on the forms
Holy shit, my main is an alchemist. this is so nice
I've always struggled with this skill. But thanks to Add-ons, I've been sinking my teeth into it little by little. It's alright so far. I'm just running around and digging stuff up.
Do you need archeology skill to do the dungeon repeatables, or just the runestone?
I did it the first time round. It was... not fun once I got into the grind.
That being said, I was in my mid 20's back then. Maybe older more chill me will appreciate it. And the rewards are cool. I'll either not touch it at all or I'll farm it to oblivion, there is no middle ground.
Also... damn, I forgot. Agility users get zero potential items. Casters get FOUR viable items.
*cries in Hunter*
"Maybe older more chill me will appreciate it" Yea, that's me too. The way my guild does raiding I'll be all "It's almost raid time, not enough time for a dungeon run. Guess I'll knock out a few dig sites while we form up". And then just dimensional ripper to the raid.
One thing I've noticed is there doesn't seem to be any 359 rewards for hunters, rogues or feral druids.
casters & warriors seem to have a tonne of great archaeology loot. definitely something they should add on imo. no reason not to.
I wish the addon Archaeology Helper would still work...
It was a godsend, made archaeology absurdly easier to do.
Someone will make one for classic
I took fishing from 1 to 525 in the Dal fountain....got all but 2 silver coins and one gold..
I remember og Cata wasting my time doing this profession on every toon through the whole expansion and got…nothing. None of those super epic pieces of gear ever dropped for me. It was such a waste of time.
The Triple RNG of Sand Drake is INSANE!!!
blizz kinda forgot about the agillity based clases with this one huh?
More content for cata.. 🎉🎉🎉
the tolvir may be a nightmare for you, but on a cata era private server i got it first solve, now fossil raptor on the other hand.....
Any tips for finding more troll sites? An addon that labels the dig site per type?
The only good thing i remember about Archaeology is when you get it maxed i think or close you get a big epic 2hd sword.
Are there really no epics for rogues? Or did I miss something?
It´s just about to keep the subs running during prepatch and so forth
Can you find the 359 items BEFORE Cata launch on may 20 ???
Yes
@@kiirbstomp Thank you
Does vial of the sands recipe drop already?
I got ultramarine battle tank á week ago
Let’s get that druid cata video brother
Sup with cata clips when we are still in middle of wrath?
He saw it coming. Also we are not in middle of wrath, we are in end of wrath
could you talk about proffesions in cata, like wich one are going to be the best for raiding and maybe the best one for gold making and stuff like that
Gemcrafting
Can you do a video on how tier works in icc?
as someone who mains a hunter and currently has several hunters at lvl 80, Arch made me mad back in the day since there was nothing a hunter could use in anyway
Why would you have several 80 hunters though
@@Madlux14 i enjoy the class, and really most of them were prof alts that i been lvling for cata prep. hunter is class i know best and fastest for me to lvl since i have been one since Vanilla wow
@@AnotherLazybum weird to have multiple of the same class
@@Madlux14 not really, have come across prob dozen if not more people with 2-3 of same class, tho some dont take it to the extreme i have and have 7 hunters lol but lots of people with multiples of same class
“475 through 450” :)
Archaeology gives some good rewards, unfortunately the grind is almost as fun as fishing.
So can you get the sword multiple times on same char, if u have multiple melee alts
not sure but it is boa so you can just mail it from one melee alt to another
You forgot yogg saron lockbox which is BADASS. Never managed to solve it in my 10years of existance in wow
Its only meant to give clues as to who the next old god will be in game
fml you didn't mention the 1 handed axe and i thought there was bo point as a rogue main to waste time on this...
the stats on weapons mean nothing anymore. oh it was 899 str? ok.
Cataclysm got announced? I thought Blizzard was abandoning classic?
Why did you think so?
@@TuomasRoin Because of the complete lack of GM support for tickets? Because of dwindling populations. A lot of reasons.
@@ephemispriest8069 Havent noticed the falling populations, my server is full
CAN'T WAIT TO DIG AWAY MY SANITY
anyone know what cata server this is? I wanna try some cata out before it comes out
Whitemane Maelstrom
Blizz dont confirmed Cata Classic so..
Not a chance I do archeology
I will grind the vial of the sands asap to become rich, thats all i care about
It got removed for a reason
Classic andy here....wtf is mastery?
Stat that increases the gimmick of the class.
Examples.
Fire Mage: fire spells create a dot that deals damage based on the damage of the largest hitting spell.
Elemental Shaman: your spells have a chance to duplicate themselves for 60% damage
Honestly, depending on your class and spec, you may still be asking that question at the end of Cata. For some classes its such an insignificant stat, for others its so build defining that you'll be stacking it as hard as possible.
Basically, as mentioned above, its a bit of a gimmick stat that varies wildly. Usually the good versions are some variation of increasing your damage by a percentage.
@@JonpaulGee interesting, thanks for your reply.
@@andromidius haha, i'm oddly intrigued. Boomie main, mage is usually my main alt.
@@mindblown42069 I "think" Boomie Mastery gives a bonus to Wrath and Starfire to targets effected by Insect Swarm and Moonfire (respectively). A little bit like how some talents work now, it just scales more. And I don't remember it being especially strong - just stacking Intellect (which gives spellpower in Cata onwards) is the way to go.
Mage works differently, I think each spec gets charges of some sort of magic shield that procs to deal bonus damage under certain circumstances. Though I don't fully remember, I just get the feeling it was a bit fiddly and again not better then Intellect stacking (at least not outside of PvP, I think the Mastery adds a lot of potential for burst damage which might be useful when trying to finish off other players)..
I actually liked archeology
They REALLY need to put the Retail version of Archology in Classic Cata.
Fucking weird there's no specific reward for per say assa rogue, or even feral.. So specific rewards its not even worth doing if your class ain't gaining anything from it except for cosmetics like mounts and gold..
its Bind on Account meaning you can send it to alts, but i hear you should be at least 1 weapon for all classes / specs
I still don’t have zinrok in retail have like 200 plus solves or smthin dumb hahahaha rem being like 12 and wanting it so bad to flex on my homie lmao
IT takes me to got It over 4000 troll solves😂
I am so gonna farm the Vial of sands. I expect the dragon to go for a f**k ton of gold in the first few months. My mate will also go for it and we share the profit.
weak auras will butcher archeology day 1 :)
10 min video just to say, "It's useless. Don't bother."
The video says the complete opposite of that???? Did you even watch it.
bro archeology? my boi is really reaching for content now lmao
nobody cared in vanilla, nobody cares now 😅
Archeology wasn’t in Vanilla ?
you've confirmed he's not a gamer@@brandonkruse6412
Cata and classic are not same. Get off your gin .
Wrath wasnt either
Wrath is the casual, catch-up expansion. At least in Cata the heroics were challenging and didn’t reward epics.
