Bangkorai Antiquity Lead: Dwemer Trade Bar

KiltMaster

I have scryed and dug up the Wyrd Root Figure (blue lead) 4 times and have never gotten the Dwemer Trade Bar lead. I am just trying to go thru and dig up all the zone leads. Can't get this one.

Anyone else experience this?

Have you dug it up before on a different character? They can only be found once per account, not per character.

Yep. The purple "free" [excavation reward] leads are granted only once per account.
The Dwemer Trade Bar is one of these.

You also have to be level 5 in Scrying, thus able to have at least 3 points in Antiquarian Insight, in order for that purple excavation reward lead to be offered. *IF* you haven't already gotten it on another character.

My character here is still at level 3 in Antiquities, so she won't even "see" those purple reward leads until I can add another point to Anitquarian Insight (in the Scrying skill line), which won't happen until she's at level 5.

Actually you can "see" all antiquities of all levels even if you haven't even done the introduction quest at all. You just can't scry them if your scrying level is too low. That was a very important feature necessary for giving people without the Greymoor chapter the "fear of missing out" because all the leads you find expire after 30 days.

Yeah, my bad; I kinda sorta misspoke. I was only referring to the leads we get as excavation rewards in each zone.
(dig up the green lead to get a blue lead to get a purple lead.)
I faked myself out; that character in my example will never see a purple excavation reward lead because I've already dug-up all of the purple excavati0n leads on other characters.

Greetings,

After further review we have decided to move this thread to a category we think is more appropriate for this topic, as it's asking the community for assistance.

Thank you for your understanding

Nah I only have the one guy and he's maxed out on excav and scrying

also, if he dug them up before, I would still be able to see them in the 'requires lead' area, right? below the ones you can actually scry for?

I appreciates your comments tho - I've gone through and found out this was the case as well for several other zones too, so I guess I'll never know
