University Text

You sign up for the Test of the Archaeologist and learn how to create Archaeological Shovels (also requires the Blacksmithing skill), build Trophy Cases, and excavate sites. You are also given a list of relics to search for. Trading relics with fellow Archaeologists is encouraged.

Overview

The Test of the Archaeologist is the second test available in the discipline of Body.

Hunt for Archaeological Dig Sites on the roads of Egypt.
Extract Relics from them using an Archaeologist Shovel.
- If you are successful at getting a relic you have to pick it up from the ground. Some are tiny and hard to see.
- Use Utility/Make Nearby Portables Look Like Bags to expose the tiny relics
When you start the test, you will be given a list of your 14 ideal Relics.
Your goal is to find relics that match as many attributes as possible on your list.
You gain permanent Focus points for installed relicts, formula unknown atm.

Passing the Principle

Review your relic list. Self > Test > Test of the Archeologist > Read my Relic List...
Install 3 types of Relics listed in your Relic List into your Trophy Case
Note that they must be 3 different types. (ie you can't install 2 Security Props)
Each type automatically gives you 7 points, so regardless of attributes, check your score and you'll pass.

Scoring

When you install a relic in your Trophy Case, you will receive 1 point, with a 7x multiplier if you found it yourself.
Each attribute on the relic that matches your ideal list will add a multiplier to the score for that relic.
The multiplier for each attribute appears to be equal to the number of possibilities for that attribute minus 1, with the exception of color (which maxes out at 7).
- Color: 7x
- Size: 4x
- Sturdyness: 2x
- Weight: 3x
- Age: 3x
- Purpose: 4x

The score of any relic is:

Collected By * Color * Size * Sturdyness * Weight * Age * Purpose

You may not install more than one of a particular type of relic in the case.
You may, however, remove installed relics, if you find a better match.
Although you do not get the 7x multiplier if you install a relic you did not find yourself, often it may still be better to do so if you can match more attributes.

Passing the Test

Requires 7 relics in your Trophy Case to compete.
The top three Archaeologist scores each week pass.

Additional Focus

You can gain a total of 28 focus. A total of 21 focus comes from the Test of the Archaeologist from the relic scores over time. You earn 7 focus comes from passing the test.

Self/Special/Explain my Focus shows that you can get more by surpassing previous scores. It also explains how your current focus is calculated.

Archaeologist Bonus for surpassing weeks' best: 7
Archaeologist Bonus each week as Egypt's for top Score: 7
