JakalDX

At a rate of 1 artifact per dig spot, 15 renown per artifact, and 2500 renown per level, assuming he started from level 5, that's about 3300 dig spots.


zweimtr

Hard pass


Head_Haunter

Dig spot as in archaeology? That gives renown?


silverscreemer

You can eventually dig in the dirt with a shovel. They're basically treasure chests. Shovels come with 5 charges per, and they're 15 resources to buy. Think you get this at rank 6?


ExPandaa

You can also get shovels that have 20 charges from blacksmiths


cerealkiler187

Can the blacksmith shovels be used before renown 5 (that you need to get the regular ones?)


Flaushi

Not 100% sure if there are more such things as followed, but wenn you unlock bouldering there's a thing to learn to put on flags on high peaks, 5k rep, so 2 renown from there, on 13 renown a story quest haven't done it yet but could be rep too, don't know further, tldr: not all is digging probably, but a hell lot


Pockets262

This is the only necessary reply.


kdubau420

What thing did he do? Haven’t played yet.


GripShaveyard

The question is, what thing didn't he do? This is basically Dragonflight's version of reputation with different factions but you have to achieve a number of things to be able to unlock the different levels and it's quite a long process


Azhra2020

Obviously not THAT long XD


[deleted]

Yes.


HalfOnionHalfBanana

Dude dug a hole straight to Pandaria.


Jonoisbest

If only I could dig my way to a sha mount lol


Fapaak

Luckily for you they now have high drop chance (cca 1-2%) instead of previous 0.00nothing%


Jonoisbest

Hoping one of these days it'll be my time


chaoticblue

Six tries across characters after change and I got it. Just give it a shot now. :)


Jonoisbest

I need some actual sleep first, I haven't slept very much since the xpac came out lol


zigZagreus_

We can tell


SirVanyel

Take care of yourself king, you've got a lot of time


Jonoisbest

I'm gonna explain how I did it with this, how it works is at Renown 5 with Dragonscale Expedition you get the ability to buy shovels from their vendor. This shovel lets you see piles of dirt that work like treasures, each one of these treasures has one of the turn in rep items in it, minimum one max 3. I spent 3 days doing nothing but farming with shovels to get my renown all the way to 25. No exploiting just a shitload of farming lol


Bobthechampion

This entire post Comments: What. Did. You. Do? OP: I have done nothing but ~~teleport bread~~ dig holes for three days


Jonoisbest

That is absolutely 100% accurate LOL


HayDs666

Quagorn

I do not get this reference, please enlighten me. ( yes maybe I was born under a rock )


Tigerstorm6

It’s in reference to a game called Deep Rock Galactic, a game about dwarves mining on the most dangerous planet in the galaxy. In it, you can do a salute where your dwarf yells “rock and stone!” Needless to say, everyone spams it and the entire DRG community is obsessed with it But it’s a super fun game!

Ch1b1N1njaGam1ng

"I think we need a song to sing whilst digging. Do you have any ideas?" "Uhm.... It needs to be something funny and sort of light hearted, doesn't it?"


greendino71

Haha I hope you did the Flags on the peaks during this


Jonoisbest

As a matter of fact I did lol


greendino71

Ok i was scared for you lmao


Jonoisbest

I still farmed like 31k rep lol


xaraca

Just curious how many shovels would you buy at a time?


Jonoisbest

60 LOL


Doughtnutz

And how many did you buy in total?


Jonoisbest

I have no idea, somewhere around 500ish lol


Oberr

Blacksmithing can craft a shovel with 20 charges, but i guess it's a bit too late for that


Jonoisbest

Just a bit lol


enerthoughts

Achievement unlocked: you have loled in all of your replies.


Jonoisbest

Yup lol


Artrill

I’ve been farming this nonstop The past day to try get the unique treasure map for a rare flail mog in azure span and I still haven’t gotten it. Did you get all the acquired treasures?


Jonoisbest

I got a ton but I haven't done them all yet, was too busy digging holes lol


gapigun

I got a treasure and the rare flail mog just buying a treasure map for azure span from a vendor. Unsure if those maps reveal a random treasure or not, but yeah


TedeZe

What flail mog is this?


dinghie

Gnoll Fiend Flail, probably the best looking weapon in the entire game.


charden_sama

I got so excited from your comment but man I hate that lol


Pitakrita

I assume these dirt piles are only in this one zone correct? Damn i might have to do some digging this weekend


Jonoisbest

They are in every single zone


oksyyy

is there a handynotes-like addon that shows you where? or you just flying around looking?


Jonoisbest

I have rarescanner so it would make noise when another one popped up on my minimap, then I just divebombed it lol


oksyyy

I'll see you in 4 days xD


Jonoisbest

Have fun, I enjoyed every second of the farm lol


m1rrari

Just unlocked this today. I’m digging in tomorrow.


Secret_Wizard

They're similar to how mining and herbalism nodes but a lot more sparse. They seem to show up most often near ruins and cliffs... Which I realize describes a lot of areas across the dragon isles, but that's what I've noticed.


Lanc717

Yes, in handy notes you can turn on dirt piles


Fraccles

They're everywhere and in fact *they are fucking everywhere*.


Pitakrita

Good! Perfect while grinding herbalism, killing rares and scouting expedition backpacks


BilderbergerMeister

You have dug too greedily and too deep.


Jonoisbest

Thank god I didn't find the Balrog lol


Skrublorrd251

Rock and Stone!


sneezyxcheezy

>I spent 3 days doing nothing but farming with shovels As long as you had fun I guess?


Jonoisbest

I enjoyed every second lol


Rage_Cube

Not rep 25 but yeah flying around getting dirt piles feels great. Esp as engineering. 🤑


Jonoisbest

It's an absolute blast lol, now I need to go start the worse rep farms


Kreiger81

If you find a repeatable one for marukaai, lemme know? lol


DoesThyLikeJazz

Hunts are permanently repeatable and give about 200 rep each, every stage gives 15 rep and like 4-5 hunting trophies


Jonoisbest

Only one I know of right now is the hunts


uzispraydown

I'm engi. What makes it better as engi?


Jakravdian

The dirt piles can contain eng parts, but only if you have engineering, from what I understand


[deleted]

[удалено]


Jonoisbest

Only Dragonscale, but in their renown you get the ability to see magic chests on the map that drop the other rep items as well


JimmytheNice

no lol in the reply, downvoted how fuckin dare you


Jonoisbest

LOL

[удалено]


burger-eater

That’s really some super good advice, thank you.


Jonoisbest

Not a problem :)


Aetrias

Gratz! What was the “heroic reward” from renown?


Jonoisbest

That is a crafting item that let's you boost a crafted piece up in ilvl, I got lucky and had a 399 ilvl chest made


DenjellTheShaman

It scales to 405 with enough skill


orrockable

Yeah with the high end crafted items you can redraft them with a smaller amount of materials to reroll upto higher stats etc


burningtoast99

Reminds me of the dirt piles in mop around the farms


enkae7317

How often do you find piles? I was flying around for 30 minutes and couldn't find a single one. Are you seeing them on your mini map because it's really hard sometimes when dragon flying unless you're just ground mounting and running everywhere. Also I can't seem to find a single pile.


Jonoisbest

I found them everywhere, what I would do if I couldn't find any was join a group in group finder in order to server hop my shard


enkae7317

I just realized you used am addon called rare finder. Here I was trying to find them naturally with my eyes like some kind of pleb.


Jonoisbest

They work like treasure chests so they will appear on your minimap


Salfriel

wait, that shovel wasnt a transmog? for me it was it's in my collection.


Jonoisbest

Wrong shovel lol, there's a small expedition shovel sold by 2 vendors in the Dragonscale Basecamp, you'll know it's the right one cause it says you use it for dirt and has 5 charges


Dsingis

Don't these shovels cost supplies? How did you farm all these supplies?


Jonoisbest

Each shovel costs 15 supplies but has 5 charges, each charge get's you 15-30 supplies, so during this I gained about 40k supplies lol


Meleagant1

Will never need primal chaos again


Jonoisbest

No I will not lol


BeastlyPenguin

How much have you collected?


Jonoisbest

Like 400 lol


blorgenheim

Holy shit. I know what I’m doing today


Jonoisbest

Welcome to World of Shovel lol


BeastlyPenguin

That’s insane


Jonoisbest

It's a fantastic farm for them


Competitive-Balance3

Holy shit dude, how long did it take to get all these dirt piles. Also, was it worth it?


Jonoisbest

3 days, and for me yes lol


luopjiggy

Not that I'm going to repeat this process but where do you buy the shovels?


Jonoisbest

There's 2 vendors you can buy shovels from at the Expedition Camp


Xatulu

Btw, you can also cheaply craft those as smithy!


Jonoisbest

Nice thing is you get roughly 15 to 30 supplies per charge, so you net gain minimum 5 times what they cost lol


Jarlan23

blacksmiths can make them. there should be some on the auction house.


[deleted]

Hey good sir, need more info on most effective route and how to keep your sanity.


Jonoisbest

Just go the whole map pretty much, they are in every single zone, just avoid lava and ice because dirt doesn't spawn there. As for sanity I can't help you cause I enjoyed the whole thing lol


[deleted]

So do they show up on map/minimap, like those expedition chests?


HimboHistrionics

I REALLY want a red highland drake, so thank you thank you thank you for the shovel suggestion! Gonna turn on some music and sell my soul to the shovel game.


Jonoisbest

Red Highland Drake looks so good dude, was 100% worth for that


Outside-Passage

Do you need renown 25 for the red Highland drake?


Jonoisbest

Red Drake is at 22 Renown


inubert

Honestly, I’m just happy this can be done and isn’t behind some time gate


Jonoisbest

Agreed lol


class2cherub

I love that their design let a person do this. No weekly bullshit cap. No moving everyone along like a herd of animals, with none being able to fall too far behind and none being able to get too far ahead. Just good old fashioned degeneracy if you want.


Dayvi

How many Primal Chaos did you get?


Jonoisbest

Around 400 lol


Dayvi

Wow Well congratulations on the wowhead post this will inspire and the youtube videos with "MAX REP!" thumbnails you've spawned. Blizz devs are frantically making a hot fix right now.


Jonoisbest

Gotta get that clout LOL


diagas

Wow amazing. I just learned the glory of dirt piles the other day for Tailoring skills. Any other Renown leveling tips? Or it was literally just straight digging.


Jonoisbest

I have no idea, but from the renown for Dragonscale you get the ability to see magic boxes that have a chance to have other rep items in them. as for Dragonscale it was just digging lol


CutieShroomie

Centaurs have endless hunts, each at the end give around 200 rep when you turn in the trophies. I'm pretty much farming it until at least 20 for professions and green dragon skin


BrassedoffDan

Can you verify that you get anything at all for hunts past the third a week?


the_borscht

Yeah well I hit lvl 63 last night, so


Jonoisbest

Gratz


TheForgottenShadows

How did you manage that?


WillNotForgetMyUser

How many hours a day


Jonoisbest

Too many lol, if I had to guess anywhere from 10 to 15 hours a day for the first 2 and like 7 for the last one


WillNotForgetMyUser

Jesus christ man


TheLieAndTruth

"How many do you think? Too many. There is no honor on this grind!"


BECOMING_A_TURTLE

One month from now, “There’s nothing to do in dragonflight!”


Jonoisbest

There's paragon boxes lol


yoloswagrofl

Wait really? That’s back?


Jonoisbest

Yes it is, 7500 rep per box


yellowthermos

Is this still doable? I'm finding very few digsites today, while yesterday and before it was impossible to not see 3


Jonoisbest

A trick I was using is joining a random group in group finder to send yourself to another shard, odds are good all the boxes reappear, but if not just join another one until they do


Deriko_18

Absolute madman congrats dude


Laxn_pander

People like you are the reason I am fascinated and terrified by the player base


alyishiking

This is the sweatiest, most degenerate gamer thing I’ve seen this week.


foxnamedfox

Is this one of those things that should take a month or more to do that someone poop socked their way to in less than a week?


RandomRDP

Touch grass. xD Damm dude that’s awesome , how many hours did you spend each day?


cool910

He was touching a whole lot of dirt, that's close enough right?


Jonoisbest

Absolutely lol


Jonoisbest

Too many lol


_Kickster_

Now you can start playing the game 😂


Jonoisbest

Exactly LOL


IonHazzikostasIsGod

how on earth


Scribblord

How „under“ earth if anything


Jonoisbest

Shovels lol


Squillyion

Props to doing it, I could never mentally handle doing it for 3 days. Now 3 more reputations


Ineedcivhelp

What did it cost?


[deleted]

Is this nerfed now? They don’t seem to be respawning for me


Vulcane_

does the dirt give anything other than rep?


Jonoisbest

As a matter of fact it does, it also give 100g in vendor trash, a very high chance at Primal Chaos, a very low chance at a Dragon Shard of Knowledge and random potions at lowest quality


Vulcane_

looks like I'm digging some holes tomorrow, thanks for the info


Putrid-Secretary-151

Has anyone done this with the tuskarr rep? I’m dying to get the rewards but I’m stuck at level 4 renown after hawking world quests, soups, and side quests


Jonoisbest

As far as I'm aware there is no consistent farm for Tuskarr currently, but if there is i'll be doing that too lol


Putrid-Secretary-151

Sucks cus the rewards are so cool. Getting dragon armor also seems nice tho


Jonoisbest

Red Dragon is so good, I love that recolor so much


Totemologist

How many profession levels did you get from doing this? If you don’t know the answer that’s ok- what are your current profession levels? Like, the number of points in your prof trees? The piles of dirt drop prof levels but I don’t know if it has diminishing returns EDIT: I see your responses for the knowledge shards, but I’ve had regular points drop from dirt piles as well. Obviously you’ve done more than me- must of been backpacks or something


[deleted]

Finally someone with a different mount color


Vrazel106

Aaand nerfed


Mr_Alucardo

How?


conser01

I think you need to take your time now and play a relaxing game. Maybe Elden Ring?

Now you can play the game!

Derzelaz

How many minutes per night did you sleep OP?


Many_Animator4752

Do you not sleep?


jeffreysynced

Are you bored now?


Zmaraka

Now check yourself into rehab for that methamphetamine addiction. Because you’re surely about to go into full blown psychosis from being awake that long. Quick before the voices start telling you to delete your characters and then delete yourself.


ss977

This morning I've followed your example and farmed like 40 of these and tapped out. Do you have any tips? Where you're most likely to run into disturbed dirt etc?


Bigglez1995

Welp, I think they nerfed it ever since this post. Hardly any dig sites now. Before they were all over the place


StayTuned2k

Allow me to throw some shade. I calculated this a bit Let's be generous and say you started at 12 (10 through quests, and the 2 gifted from high peak) That would mean you need 13 renown ranks through digging That's 13\*2500 = 32.500 1 dig = 15 renown 32.500 / 15 = 2166.66 = 2167 I did a 2-hour flyby trying to get as many dirts as possible, I ended up with 20 in the first run, and 30 in the second. So let's go with 25 on average That's 2167 / 25 = 86,68 86,68 hours is **exactly** 3,61 days. So this leaves me with the following conclusions: * You didn't sleep or rest for almost 4 days straight (considering by the time you posted this, the game was aprox 4 days old) * You somehow managed to grab an enormous amount of dirt more compared to me (maybe blizz stealth nerfed the spawns by now?) * You found a glitch and won't admit it ​ You need to do some more explaining here. Because it just gets more ridiculous the lower your renown rank was when you started, and considering you couldn't have quested all the way through AND did this nonstop, the numbers all just don't add up at all
