no mostly grind through Q, but once you reach R15 , you have a chance to get Excaribura , the ultimate weapon used by Saber in Holy Grail war

Grinding this is easy around Alexandria, with all the Egyptian archeology stuff - you have a small distance to run. But maybe there is better at exotic places like Lima, I dunno.

Hans is correct: there's a purple-reddish Baji Jeogori (found in EA shipwreck iirc) that has +2 archaeology, along with +2 appraisal and +1 unlock.

I did mine in archives, higher rank of the skill higher the prof you will get also. I'm getting around 6 prof with boost browsing in archives. Much faster than doing quests. Currently at r14. Downside is you need headache meds or you can just port hop (Seville - Lisbon, Mas - Genoa - Naples, etc). just my 2 cents

I saw it in a company shop! I've been told you get this as a reward for charting Mesopotamia River Basin for Mercator, so nice! I have to do that soon so I can replace my Agamemnon Mask, haha.

New +2 Archaeology weapon:

Gastraphetes Crossbow
100 Durability
45 Attack
+2 Bow Attack
+2 Archaeology
10,000 fame to equip


It's awarded for completing a merchant quest from London to Athens (*5-star difficulty, name: Deliver the Light Crossbow) which involves giving x1 Light Crossbow from Manchester to a Craftsman NPC in Athens. Not sure if it's a one-time reward, or can be acquired repeatably at thia time.
