99+ day(s) ago | Excavation site collapses !
44,064 paid to excavators as compensation !
Virals must be horrible diggers, Every 5 times I get this message. I rarely ever saw this with A.Miner and guardian. |
Deiloche
99+ day(s) ago | Hmmm, my experience shows that guards are a lot better than virals and marauders, at least. |
EvilAbadayos
99+ day(s) ago | hehe yep :P
I never hold any guarantee for ANY advise I give. It all depends on how you use the advise and if it actually does apply to you.
Try it and see how it goes |

99+ day(s) ago | Remember though he said almost, it wasn`t a full fledged gaurantee. All digging results are in no way aba`s responsibility.
Now the mens wearhouse on the other hand will gaurantee that digging on low land oceanics as guard is extrememely wise. |
EvilAbadayos
99+ day(s) ago | depends on what your digging on for guard.
Spaz SUCKS for guards to dig on
Dig on a 10-14 land oceanic and you will be VERY pleasantly suprised. I almost guarantee it |
Africa
99+ day(s) ago | Hmm.. aba. In my experience guards are by far the worst. Virals are much better and terrans even better. |
Deiloche
99+ day(s) ago | I also agree the viral and maru sucks, and that maru is probably worse than viral, just by comparing between my RT results and ultra results. But, those are different servers with different situations and my experience digging with marauder is not even remotely extensive.
Terran and a.miner, couldn`t tell ya. Never dug with them. |
EvilAbadayos
99+ day(s) ago | hehe there is your answer then..collective is good for digging :P |
Infernal
99+ day(s) ago | :P i should be famous by now, the amount of gordos i produce lol |
CrazyMaverickTNM
99+ day(s) ago | I agree with Deiloche with Collective being extremely lucky with artifacts, easiest race to get grands with if you ask me. |
Deiloche
99+ day(s) ago | Collective, in my experience, is extremely lucky at digging. As with infernal`s experience. |
EvilAbadayos
99+ day(s) ago | here is my experiance of digging with all races, best to worst:
Guard
Terran
Miner
Viral
Maru
Collective (this one isn`t 100% sure due to not proper testing)
Results may vary as I tend to dig on low land oceanics rather than low land spaz`s.
The general consencus is race difficulty with a leaning towards guards (due to population as that DOES slightly impact on digging by a small amount)
My thoughts on why guard have higher innate chance:
Inability to raise loyalty (the act of raising loyalty gives a slight boost to dig chance, not actual loyalty amount). Due to this guard get a hard coded boost that assists them in digging, which makes them better than almost all when coupled with the generally higher pop (tax miners have a near the same ability to find also, tax viral don`t due to 2 pop on spazes and oceanics, infecting the oceanic ruins it`s dig odds)
I could go on butr I can`t be bothered. |

99+ day(s) ago | guardian was always the best in my experience with miner a close second... |
DrunkenMasters
99+ day(s) ago | Terran and miner get the best results digging. |

99+ day(s) ago | *Agrees with ren
/me points at sol and laughs. At least don`t mislead the newbies when you don`t know the answer! |
Islander
99+ day(s) ago | Race has a HUGE impact on artis. Goes by race difficulty. The easiest race (Terran) digs best. Gets more artis by a good amount than the hard races. Miner being second, etc. |
Sol
99+ day(s) ago | Well race has such a miniscule part in the formula that no-one has actually noticed it so it makes near as durn it no difference |
Imagine{A{Cool{Name
99+ day(s) ago | From the excavation dig page
Things which effects the dig are:-
- Time of day (server time)
- Planetary upgrades & Planet type (for GC game)
- Paid-Account has +20% chance of finding stuff
- Basically 101 other things from -->RACE<-- how long you have been digging etc etc |
Sol
99+ day(s) ago | as far as i`m aware no specific race has any advantage with artifacts.
the main impacting factor is time of day, and digging planet. |
