Palia Elderwood: How to Find Artifacts (Tracker)

Artifacts are one of the new features in the Elderwood update for Palia, and you’ll ideally want to use a Tracker to help find them.

You can find Artifacts fairly randomly in the game. Most of the ones you find will be from the daily rummage piles, which have varying locations. To make things a lot easier, though, you can use a handy Artifacts Tracker to pinpoint where the relevant rummage piles are!

In this guide, we’ll tell you how to get and use the Artifact Tracker utility.

How to Find Artifacts With the Artifact Tracker | Palia: Elderwood

To get the Artifact Tracker, you need to go to the Central Stables in the middle of the Elderwood region. Once there, you want to head to the Artifact Store in the southwestern part of the stables. It’s the bulletin board shown above.

If you need help finding the stables in this region, check out our guide on all the Elderwood stables locations.

Once there, you need to purchase the Artifact Tracker for 1 Elouisa’s Fun Buck. Worth noting that the Artifact Tracker won’t appear in your inventory at all. It’s instead counted as a sort of permanent passive upgrade, not an actual item.

You can get Elouisa’s Fun Bucks by giving any Artifacts you’ve already found to Elouisa in front of the bulletin board. If you’ve yet to do that, you’ll need to explore until you find a rummage pile or offer a Sacred Flower to an Umbraan Shrine.

Either way, you can tell the Artifact Tracker is working when you notice white dirt piles appear on your compass. These signal the location of nearby rummage piles, which you can loot for Artifacts. As far as we can tell, the general detection range for these piles is about 90 to 100 meters.

Lastly, it’s worth noting that 4 rummage piles spawn per day. One will spawn in Killima Village, another in Bahari Bay, and two in the Elderwood region. The locations are the same for every player each day, too, so you can ask others for their locations if you need help!

That’s all you need to know to be able to use the Artifact Tracker in the Elderwood expansion for Palia. Now you just need to go out there and start hunting down those rare Artifacts.
