ArchaeologyBuddy
An Archaeology botbase, that paths digsites with flying mount fully automated.​

How does ArchaeologyBuddy work ?
Just hit start. There is no configuration needed. AB will even train Archaeology if you don't have it.​

Known Bugs
We track known bugs in the second post of the current Honorbuddy "Release" thread. You can find the Honorbuddy "Release" thread in this forum:

Todo List
  • None
Download
No download necessary--this bot ships with Honorbuddy.​

FAQ
Q: ArchaeologyBuddy says "No digsites on map!"
A: There are two causes of this problem.
The first cause... you must enable the viewing of digsites on your map and minimap in the game client.
The second cause... you are running an game client addon that interferes with ArcheologyBuddy. Disable your addons.

Q: I'm getting a "Object already in use" errors
A: You are using a WoWclient addon that is interfering with ArchaeologyBuddy.
Addons we know for a fact will interfere are Archy and Minimal Archaeology.
Please disable all Archaeology-related WoWclient addons when using ArchaeologyBuddy.

Q: Why ArchaeologyBuddy doesn't train ?
A: You need to be in Kalimdor for Horde and Eastern Kingdons for Alliance for AB to train

Q: It doesn't pick the mount i wrote on Mount Name
A: There are some mounts that are not supported by HB. For drake type mounts, try writing "Mount" at the end of the mount name. Like "Brown Drake Mount"

Q: How can i make ArchaeologyBuddy automatically solve artifacts ?
A: Once you select ArchaeologyBuddy from bots dropdown, click to Bot Settings. You will see you can set various variables that will change how AB acts.

Q: I enabled auto solving but still its not solving anything
A: Some in game addons causes issues while used with ArchaeologyBuddy (espcially Archy). Disable any addons you have about Archaeology

Q: How can i blacklist digsites ?
A: Once again check out Bot Settings. Stuff in there are all self explonatary

Q: I can't find a download link where is it ?
A: AB comes shipped with HB releases. Latest version is always bundled in latest HB.

Q: I'm a druid and ArchaeologyBuddy always uses flight form. How can i make it use my desired mount?
A: Thats by design. Currently there is no way you can force AB to use a mount as a druid.

Q: AB got stuck at "xXx" digsite !
A: Please submit a bug to our bugtracker thats linked above FAQ part.

Q: AB is not working !
A: Which part of it ? Simple statements about ArchaeologyBuddy not being working, or not solving, or gets stuck at XXX digsite doesn't help at all. Please provide as much detail as you can while stating bugs. Thats the only way you can help me to improve it.

I've noticed a lack of intelligence behind the behavior of the bot : Doesn't go closet site, just follow a previous order, doesn't refresh the list of excavation site right after finished one and doesn't go to the new nearest site, the bot do few round-trip completly useless.
 
weird behaviour in bear form..can survey but cant pick up the relics in bear. Doesnt auto shift out to appropriate form
 
hello there. trying to use the archeo buddy... but as soon as i start it sais no valid dig sites. i have no other archeo bots running. only DBM and an garrison addon...

anyone else having this issue?
it used to work fine, but now with the new Legion update it wont work anymore
 
I had to train, then start in draenor, level then go back to get other digsites in old zones to work.
Might be on blizzards end and not honrobuddy. My arch is working just fine as far as HB goes.
 
Solve Report:
---------------------------
No solves

then stops .... every time it tries to solve 1 it stops . this time 1 was 67/65 it could of solved 1 but it stoped

EDIT : turned off all addos seems to be working fine

Hey, I was just wondering if Broken Isles digsites are going to be added in at some point?
 
Hey,

Please update this Bot.

When i start it, then it says "Found a digsite in cirtrinbucht. He swims always into deathz. No blacklisting available, because not updatet yet :).

Greetings,
Soubi
 
Yeah, I'm also eagerly awaiting an update for this botbase. I want to get my hands on that sweet Acheology mount!
 
ArchaeologyBuddy stops right after pressing start.
Throws exception System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. at Bots.ArchaeologyBuddy.ArchBuddy.Gx<#Q}o tp57#{n(zl/vblSG".MoveNext()

And then tries to look for digsites but can't find any.

ArchaeologyBuddy does not work in Legion/Broken Isle.
I tryes to swim to kalimdor or Easter Kingdom.
If you Blacklist all other contines, it will just start and stop, when will Broken Isle/Legion support come for this?

Thanks
 
same here

bot try to swim from Legion to Kalimdor :(
I hope it will be fixed soon

Can someone tell me about the Status of the Arche Buddy now ?
or is there a site to look with updates ?

thx
Adrian

old map such as panda, azeroth sometimes this bot doesnt find the correct point
it wanders around the point but cant pick up..

HB2 doesnt do that. HB2 is perfect. but HB3 has a lot of problem in old map
 
First, glad this was just updated to work on Legion!

The good news: It now goes to digsites and Surveys correctly!

The bad news: It is not picking up the fragments after doing so!

Another piece of weirdness, Blizzard decided to put a digsite directly in the middle of a bunch of elites in south-east Azsuna. I would highly recommend blacklisting this site all together. I am a tank and I can kill them fine, but it is not efficient in anyway shape or form. Sat here for 20 min and only did 3 digs.

Let me know if you need any more info.

Edit: uploaded a smaller log file with all my plugins removed.

I was literally going to post the same thing. Spot on. I am having the exact same problems.

Wowhead is not up-to-date with their object database yet. Could you help me grab the entries of the fragment types?

Those are the ones I have so far:

Azsuna - Highborne: Highborne Archaeology Find - Object - World of Warcraft
Stormheim - Demonic: Demonic Archaeology Find - Object - World of Warcraft
Highmountain - Highmountain Tauren: Highmountain Tauren Archaeology Find - Object - World of Warcraft

You can grab the entry from the Developer Tools - Objects tab when you survey one.
