History

1.6.5Beta 1*

Archaeologists trades have been changed to the following:

  • Clay Balls -> Emerald
  • Emerald -> Decorated pot
  • Copper Ingots -> Emerald
  • Emerald -> Sand, gravel, or red sand
  • Emeralds -> Enchanted brush
  • Feathers -> Emerald
  • Emerald -> Any color concrete powder
  • Emeralds -> Enchanted diamond shovel
  • Emeralds -> Explorer map

This makes it so the master level trade has 2 options (shovel/map) in case the map is unable to find an archaeology structure nearby.

1.6.3Beta 1*

Archaeologists no longer trade calcite, deepslate, and tuff.

These trades have instead been offloaded to the mason and replaced with a trade buying clay balls.

1.4.0*

The archaeologist’s trades have been completely reshuffled

They will now only trade red sand when they are a savanna villager

The decorated pot trade now only costs 1 emerald rather than 5-7

They now sell calcite, tuff, or deepslate, rather than pottery sherds

They now sell lightly enchanted diamond shovels

For their final trade, rather than trail ruins trims, they sell a map to a archaeology structure depending on their biome outfit:

  • Snowy: Ancient City
  • Savanna: Badlands Temple
  • Taiga: Trail Ruins
  • Plains: Trail Ruins
  • Desert: Desert Well (33%) or Desert Temple (66%)
  • Swamp: Cold Ocean Ruin (50%) or Warm Ocean Ruin (50%)
  • Jungle: Jungle Temple

Archaeologist houses in villages no longer have a decorated pot with a “Friend” pottery sherd

  • This prevents that sherd from being devalued when found in trail ruins

Their gifts for hero of the village have been changed:

  • Rather than sniffer eggs or “Friend” pottery sherds, you will get one of the following:
    • Brush
    • Decorated pot
    • Brick
1.3.4*

Archaeologists’ houses in villages no longer have suspicious gravel/sand in their backyards, instead having the pots directly inside their houses

1.3.0*

Tweaked archaeologist texture

1.2.2*

The archaeologist texture has been swapped from the old texture to a new version

  • Rather than stealing from her Dinos and Dodos’ paleontologist, Rag finally made an actual texture!

Archaeologists now buy 10 copper ingots instead of 10 clay balls

1.2.1*

Archaeologists’ nametags are no longer always visible
