Tips
TheScrying mechanicscan be a bit tricky for players who aren’t familiar with them. Not to mention Scrying level seven is needed to dig up any of these artifacts in the first place. If players are under-leveled or need a bit of practice it’s a good idea to go to Arteum and dig up a few things there.
During excavation, it’s important to ensure that nothing is touching the relic being dug up or it will be considered a failure. The player should ensure there’s a clean area completely surrounding the object in order to lift it out, this is still a finicky mechanic but players should get a feel for it.
The Ring of the Wild Hunt involves a lot of boss kills. Nothing on this list should be too bad but players may want to dig up a few guides on specific bosses. While a player could choose any world boss in Greenshade, players will be locked into bosses like Cannonreeve Oraneth.
The final thing to keep in mind is that while many of the bosses on this list can be tackled solo, some can be tricky. Players should really consider joining a group seeking to track down this specific item. They’re more likely to be patient when Scrying and excavating after the boss fight and will often be geared to tackle specific enemies making the whole process easier on everyone.
