Where to go

  • Excavation 101Level 70

    So, you want to learn how to excavate artifacts? You came to the right orc! Turns out being able to shape the earth is useful when you're trying to get stuff out of the ground. And given how much the elements affect our work, it helps having an elemental to lend a hand.
