The droprate of the Pristines is 11%. I collected the data of the achievementhunters of our guild and some friends again to verify this point like I already did with 闻道之座, meaning:

In average you'll only need 196 artifacts (without rares) to get this achievement. Compared to 闻道之座, where you needed 720 solves, these are very good news!

But in case you have all except by one, you'll need on average 72 for the last one, but you'll just have it after 214 with a chance of 95% and after 329 with a chance of 99%. You can also be extremely lucky like me and have it after unbelieveable 110 solves! The 20 of all took me 185 solves, which is quite lucky, too.

Hope this helps your motivation!

EDIT: Nice bug with the droprate of 螳螂妖琥珀裂片! You'll get more 螳螂妖琥珀裂片 than you can use at the moment, so do this achievement as fast as you can! This will sure gonna be fixed. I'm at ~50 solves at the moment and already have 3 stacks of 螳螂妖琥珀裂片, although I use a one with every solve!
EDIT 2: This got livehotfixed last night. (07-03-2013)
EDIT 3: If you already have 闻道之座 done, use 螳螂妖遗物声波定位仪! The spawns are very close to each other, I did it with the Hearthstone in Tonlong and use it always after clearing Tonlong or Dread Wastes.

Completed this today, and I can confirm that this does not award some hidden title like 闻道之座.

For me it ended up fairly balanced, by the time I got my 8th pristine, I had all Collector's achievement done apart from one, which was at 19/20. 202 Mantid solves in total.

This was a lot easier to complete than 闻道之座, because when you use 螳螂妖遗物声波定位仪, you will only have mantid digsites in Pandaria, and they are all close to eachother, in either Dread Wastes or Townlong Steppes.

Got mine in 83 solves, regardless of statistical accuracy and random traces of math involved, it's a thousand times more forgiving than seeker of knowledge which took 700.

评论来自 Kyok

Digsites are only placed in Townlong Stepes and Dread Wastes so it's much faster to collect artefacts for Mantids than 闻道之座

This should give a title imo. Quite an prestigeful acheivement

Took me 333 solves and bit over a 100 solves from my 2nd to last to last pristine item. With 49 of them on the one I needed. Don't give up it feels bad but before you know it you get it I guess. At 621 Solves for the other one and still need 3 pandaren ones to go.

I'm at 623 Mantid solves and still missing my final Pristine. I have no idea what is going on. I understand RNG is RNG, but this seems a bit extreme? It took me over 900 combined to finish Pandaren and Mogu, but my Mantid trumps them. First few days of 5.2 I had all of them but one and stopped for a bit. I went back to finish up on the 17th. I've been at this 4 days with well over 400 artifacts made in these 4 days, 71 alone of the one I need Pristine. Still no where in sight. I've asked around to others doing Archaeology and since last Tuesday no one has seen a Pristine.

Edit: After 678 Solves...it finally popped for me...I wish everyone luck on achieving this. I'm done with Archaeology for a long time....

Bad RNG is very bad RNG .(I hope to soon say bye to archeology until next expansion...if i'm lucky)
For all those waiting for the last pristine i've found the solution on what to do with the restored artifacts
BEHOLD! Zin'rokh, Destroyer of Worlds

Got this at 87 mantid solves.

Still working on seeker of knowledge - over 600 solves and I'm still waiting on the pristine tea set.

As of 5.3 there is still no convergence algorithm, the solves/pristines are still random. Got the achieve after a combined 372 mantid solves. The 45th Mantid Lamp and 44th Ancient Sap Feeder were pristine... That's either some terrible luck, or the pristine rate is much much lower than 10%.

评论来自 wowZhenek

237 solves to complete 20/20 everything and then the pristine thingy. Must say I got pretty lucky with every pristine but the last one. Had them pop at sub 17 of each item but the last one, of course, had to spoil it and took me 33 solves. Damn ancient sap feeders.
Ultimately the grind is much better than the panda/mogu one due to digsites being relatively small (basically I've never seen a red color on my indicator) and pretty close to each other.

This should totally award the title "entomologist". Get on it, Blizzard!

Finished this achievement after solving these:

Pollen Collector: 37
Kypari Sap Container: 56
Ancient Sap Feeder: 44
Inert Sound Beacon: 48
The Praying Mantid: 39
Banner of the Mantid Empire: 55
Mantid Lamp: 38
Remains of a Paragon: 48

the last one was Inert Sound Beacon that took 48 solves.... and some people say it is a 10% for pristine....

After countless hours of farming I got it. Who ever wants to do a statistical analysis here are my stats

Mantid: 452
Pandaren: 252
Mogu: 281

I had collected had all the achievements from pandaria archeology and all the pristine ones when I was at 204 Mantid solves the last one (Mantid Lamp) took me another 248... nearly drove me insane.

Pollen Collector: 62
Kypari Sap Container: 56
Ancient Sap Feeder: 50
Inert Sound Beacon: 63
The Praying Mantid: 59
Banner of the Mantid Empire: 53
Mantid Lamp: 49
Remains of a Paragon: 58

Thought I would give some tips on items/gear/addons you can use while farming for archaeology achievements and/or Tol'vir rares.

I finally got the last pristine for 螳螂妖的历史 which took 30 solves of Ancient Sap Feeder. Number of solves all together for both 螳螂妖的历史 and 闻道之座:

Pandaren: 289
Mogu: 254
Mantid: 349

I consider myself pretty lucky with these numbers, especially with Pandaren and Mogu, even though I almost performed some random executions on things (like my ever so smiling, quirky Mickey Mouse telephone) in my home while doing this.
While farming archaeology I would highly recommend using:

劫匪的手套 - practically a must have if you don't want to end up having a mental breakdown by for example screaming at a picture of your grandmother blaming her for not preparing you mentally for this endeavor.
Archy – an excellent add-on also helping the prevention of prematurely committing suicide.
TomTom – works great with Archy by providing waypoints and valuable directions to take in life (and maybe WoW too).
Gatherer – helps by marking your minimap where fragments and orgasmic origins (yeah… don’t ask) have previously been found.

I also found that some other items/gear could provide usefulness in this undertaking:

钳爪蟹壳 – great for avoiding encounters that can disturb your Tantra moment seeking.
~~风翎鹤羽 – increases mount speed by 30% for 1 hour.~~ Only works for ground mount ergo irrelevant.
金羊毛 – gives a chance to get some extra gold when killing mobs (didn’t work when I killed the plant next to me though).

Using 游学者的磁石 on cooldown is also recommended of course and 游学者的地图 as well.

While farming for these achievements I traded in restored artifacts for Tol’vir fragments and that got me both 阿兹亚基节杖 and 蠕行之爪. I listened to the trance channel on www.di.fm during this too and that website is recommended for anyone who listens to electronic music. I hope my input helps someone in soothing the mental trial this surely is.

I've done it from 206 solve. Pollen was the last one with 27 solve. I've got it after 2 from the last 20's achie (Collector: Banners of the Mantid Empire). I feel extremely lucky reading the prev comments tbh... :)

评论来自 Vedney

took my 45th solve for my last Remains of a Paragon. Seems like a common occurance.

评论来自 santiagod5

Just finished this, it took me a whole 686 solves.... Kypari Sap Container was the last one, it took me 88 solves. Sure Blizzard went wildly when programming these achievements.

评论来自 Taalmisbruik

is it just me or it the ratio between mantid digsites and pandaren and mogu digsites ridiculously low? I have done like 40 pandaren and mogu digsites before I came across 1 mantid digsite.

评论来自 DivaLulu
