Scavenging is used to hunt certain types of creatures and to search for items. It is now not possible to search for items, now you can only hunt for creatures. You hire a scout with gold to go to on of two caves: The Mystic Cave and Ancient Cave.

Ancient Cave

You can choose to pay the scout to take you to either a mystic cave or an ancient cave. Within the caves you discover creatures which you will then go into combat with. Note that when in combat with creatures found via scavenging, you will not gain or lose any gold, stamina or xp (other than the gold paid to the scout), however it is possible to obtain the item drops normally (ie. this represents the item you have discovered in the cave after defeating the creature). Your Kill Streak will not increase or be lost while scavenging. Skills and Enhancements work as normal and your equipment will take durability damage as per normal combat.

Cost and Finds

The cost of each search is up to the player, note that the higher the player is willing to pay, the higher the chance the scout the player hired will find something. The player can find many creatures (Even elite creatures, some found nowhere else!), and creature drops.

Payment & Drop Table

This table lists recommended payments for various drops. There are no guarantees that a certain payment leads to a certain creature or that even if the creature is found, that the item listed in the table below is dropped.

This table is a recommendation, based on user findings.

Creature Battles

If you find a creature and win, you will either get an item or nothing. If you have active buffs, they will come into effect during battle. If you happen to lose a battle, you dont lose anything (Probably because if a level 1 player found a level 65 Burrow Grub, it would be unfair due to the level and stat difference)

Legendary Creatures

Sometimes, legendary creatures are spotted in the caves. During these events, it is extra beneficial to go hunting for rare items.
