To The Archives!

When Seeds of Renewal releases players can head to the Roasted Ram Inn to grab the quest, “To The Archives!” which will lead them to the Algeth’ar Academy Inn Thaldraszus to begin their quest for knowledge. It’s here that players will meet with the Lead Archivist, Eadweard Dalyngrigge, and a team of archaeologists and archivists at Traitor’s Rest.

Excavation

One aspect of the Azerothian Archives feature is excavation, which players will learn more about when they visit Geo-Archaeologist Roska Rocktooth. She’ll give players an elemental assistant specific to every site they visit to help find whatever treasures lay beneath the ground.

Technoscrying

After every dig players will need to take their items to Techno-Archaeologist Zenata to reveal scenes from the past. Use a special set of goggles called Technoscryers to help locate specific items and directional pings to take you to the correct location.
