I'm just wondering if anybody's found the full Relic on their first click. It should be possible. I've found Relic Clues on my second click so far and that's the closest I've come.

Thanks @nissa762 ! (Who was the OP of this)

@ghallmark814 it was a team effort of a few of us - thanks. I still managed to remember the pattern though :)

edit: this was the first draft, the second pic in this thread was the final version

Yeah I member I had an insane idea that certain rock patterns would only appear in certain areas.


I turned out to be true, but not as I expected (basically the whole digsite is a giant chessboard.)

This is a tried and tested method.

It works and is effective, you could change the order in which you go, however the efficiency remains the same.

The main point is that you hit areas that would limit the number of possible places the relic can be.


This is where math and obsessive individuals turn a game into a simple calculated risk factor with maximum gains.

Trust us, Nissa did the math.

Nissa has a Nobel Prize in being an Awesome Neighboreno.

I can now raise my hand to my own question.

For what its worth I hit all the corners by going one space in diagonally and if that doesn't work hit some random sides. Always get 1 out of 7 hits with that. Always get 3 prizes for 20 picks and usually get 4.

Don't mess with the math :angry:

Ya. Well, you can play any old way you like but the pattern ensures a max of 10 moves and has an average of 7 (the math was somewhere) and there is just no way to consistanty do better.

relic in this dig site only resides in one square though, so you can't rely on a partial find to pinpoint its location.

It the same, with the 4 stones placed around the relic

amazing, i hit on the center of the relic 3 times without discovering the partials....

thanks for the clarification guys.

And yes this one was the final pattern that was the most efficient and had better coverage.
