I did not need your buddy to tell me what he did, my OP covers that I already understand this mechanic to the nth degree.
My point is to bring up an oversight on ZOS part (which I also listed in my OP if you actually read it). The more the community is aware, the more they can express their voice to get changes made.
Eyevea that's the place to go to level up fast scrying/excavation. Main char or alts.(...) How do YOU level Excavation and Scrying on your alts.
Typically in MMORPG's, once you grind out a mundane task on a main character, there are mechanics and QOL items that make the grind much much less time consuming for alts.
I level them both up on alts for the treasure chest passive that allows you to see treasure chests easily. I do this so that I may contribute to the dungeon parties I am a part of.

Now my AD PvE main toon has 10 lancers that my DC PvP alt cannot use because they are character bound.
Great oversight there ZOS.

Go to cold harbour with your main archaeologist
Find crafting nodes and in about a minute or two you will have a gold lead
When the gold lead drops, and it will.... log on to levelling character immediately and complete it
Repeat... the cool down will be reset
If you can do gold this blows every other method out of the water
Now all I need is a purple that’s as reliable...🧐
Why do the nods on your archaeologist? Won't they drop for the levelling toon as well?
So, my question is. How do YOU level Excavation and Scrying on your alts.
I missed nothing, and spelled it out. A problem is created in game, and then a solution is sold, that costs real life money to solve. It is unethical.You seem to have completely missed the point. Offering convivence in a video game is not the same as causing actual damage to someone or their property then charging them for the fix.You are crazy over exaggerating lol. Especially considering there is practically no point in having multiple characters with max scryingI level them both up on alts for the treasure chest passive that allows you to see treasure chests easily. I do this so that I may contribute to the dungeon parties I am a part of.
I said practically no reason. [snip] Rank 7 excavation isn't even that bad to get.
I am not exaggerating at all. If you prefer companies to conduct business unethically, good for you, I prefer they conduct business in an honest fashion.
Secondly. I don't consider leveling up scrying/excavating to help see treasure chests easier for the groups I am in (the goal being to benefit the party) as "practically no reason".

Glowy Treasure Chests are so nice...
Im sorry if this isnt an answer you expect, but i dont level scrying on alts, there is no point in doing so. Leads are account wide, if i happen to find a lead on an alt without scrying i just hop on my main and scry it.
This is not an option. Solution selling is unethical.

@Raideen - In what MMOs? I've played UO, DAoC, WoW, and TOR before ESO; none of those featured anything like that

Just use Map Pins if you're on PC. It even puts the locations on your compass for the chests you've discovered previously - so you don't need a minimap, or to open your full map. Then you can also check for chests off the beaten path that you would miss with the scrying passive
I only have the passive on two toons. It's already annoying enough when people want to stop 5 times to open simple chests in dungeons with super-useless gear. We call them trashcans in one of my guilds. lol
