Archaeology Helper accelerates your surveying by providing triangulation on a Heads-Up Display (HUD)

  • Convenient Survey Button
  • Green, yellow, or red button to add new sectors to the HUD and narrow down the position of your fragment
  • Mount one of your favorited mounts (or druid flight form) while looking for fragments
  • Keybindings and various settings in the addon config GUI
  • (Optional) HUD includes GatherMate2 pins showing possible fragment positions, further accelerating the process
  • (Optional) Shows Dig Sites on Battlefield Minimap

HUD/Overlay

On the HUD you can also see player arrow in the center and very small red circle that represents survey success range and all colored transparent overlapping areas that were set by you with colored buttons.

Usage

  1. Go to dig site, Right Click last button (spade) to show HUD and Left Click to cast Survey.
  2. ROTATE YOUR CHAR, BUT DON'T MOVE in the needed direction and press colored button according to Survey result.
  3. Move to other location, do same again.
  • Recommended to use in conjunction with GatherMate2, which will show all previous or imported dig-points on the HUD. When using GatherMate2 jump onto fragment before gathering! GatherMate2 data accuracy depends on that.
  • Minimap zoom buttons and rotation also zoom and rotate the HUD display.

Moderation Note: 

The Original project has been abandoned and I've been unable to reach the authors no matter how much I've tried.

This is a fork and maintenance release until such time that the original author comes back.
