[Bug][Solstice] Antiquities Dig Sites

Gabriel_H · October 30

Friend of mine had a lead drop today. Scryed it. Encountered this:

I have two active mythic yellow leads for Solstice. Both scry to unavailable areas in Eastern Solstice. My plan is to hope that the areas are open before the leads expire.

it is a known bug, you can scry again till you get a West Solstice digsite

@LunaFlora that is a helpful idea, thanks!

Antiquities are combined per PTS and patch notes:

So I'm guessing this will be a thing until the wall is breached. But yeah as Luna said, re-scrying works for now.

That's interesting you (or your friend) got the Pendulum! It's a cool piece. On PTS (in the thread above) it was clearly the new common drop for Eastern Solstice, but good to know it definitely drops in Western as well. That doesn't give me any hope for Map drops, but Idk, didn't test them this time.

This is going to be hard

How do you re-scry? I only have the option to abandon it. Would the lead remain if I do? I am kind of leery or dropping the leads which are hard to get.

Yes, abandon it. It will remain and you can re-scry.
Actually, I don't know if this is true for treasure map antiquities. I think it is?

I have several leads that will expire within the next few days, and they are each insisting on giving a dig site on the wrong side of the wall...

It will be pretty annoying if they expire purely because the bug is refusing to let me find a dig site I can access, even after multiple rescries!

You can abandon the scry without losing the lead, then re-scry until it is on the correct side. Got to Antiquities tab on the map menu, right click the lead and you should see "Abandon".

To be honest, I suspect it's no more a "bug" than having antiquities accessible in North Coldharbour when one has not legally unlocked the quest that allows one there. (One wayshrine is in fact unlocked and can be teleported to, especially for people who get antiquities there.) Right now it's a "problem" because East Solstice isn't accessible to anyone: later on, it won't be an issue.
