===Dig Site Map Upgrading and Refinement===
Discovering a Dig Site rewards the player with an Excellent tier Dig Site Map, which should be enough to discover most of the artefacts at least once. Only spend the time to upgrade a Dig Site Map if you are going for a more rare item, or if you have used up your free Dig Site Map.


If the player has enough {{Icon|GP}}, refining a map is very useful to boost the chances on a Dig Site. <span style="color:green">-5 Artefact value</span> and <span style="color:green">+1 minimum Items found</span> are the most useful refinements. Be strategic when choosing which size artefact to refine.

==Fastest Experience==
Start by excavating Common and Uncommon artefacts of all sizes in every available Dig Site. Submit one of every new artefact in the Museum tab to obtain milestone rewards. Prioritize discovering new Dig Sites in Cartography instead of getting the Rare, Very Rare, and Legendary items, unless they are items which unlock other Dig Sites or are desirable for other Skills.
