Does this mean the loot table will be mixed up a bit? Right now everything I've seen come out of the trenches is identical to stuff in the Throne dig site, and while it's cool to have it in another place and I've had fun digging, it would be neat if we could get some other stuff too.

You turn the gaharzen a few ways, trying to activate it. You hear an unsettling metallic click, and the gaharzen vibrates slightly in your hand.
The gaharzen pulses a moment then shatters in majestic beauty, sending slivers flying.

well i'm pretty sure you learn mech lore

someone found this but didn't want it so i snatched it up

stone stela fragment
Of the small carvings remaining on the fragment, one is a stained blue owl-headed figure sending lightning bolts at a simplified citadel.

it's done by picking up three tools
a hand spade, a handpick, and a excavation brush

you start by digging with the spade
dig trench
when you hit something switch to the handpick and make sure everyone else stops digging or it'll get burried again

kneel
pick trench
until you get to a fine layer of dust then switch to the brush

brush trench with brush
until it's uncovered, then everyone can marvel in the glory of a pottery fragment ;p or dig some more ;p

There is a table in the first room of the Crossing excavation area with the items on it. The brush is on the tray, you'll need one of those too.

<<so have never been up to the Throne City dig

This is what makes me cringe a little by introducing the dig down in Crossings or possible other cities in the future. It was one of the few attractions for Throne City (which is a niche area of the game anyways). To see it, you needed to get out of Crossings, something I think too few of the general population does. Now don't get me wrong, Crossings is a fine place, but there's a lot of game to explore. I think there's a lot of encouragement to do so already with systems like trench digging or finding the best critters to hunt. This takes a little way from the encouragement, making me hope this is actually only apart of an event and open for a limited time.
