Example of RS3 Archeology Calculator
Let’s say you are excavating a historical material (with a Material Multiplier of 1.8x) at the Everlight excavation site (with a Site Multiplier of 1.2x), and your base XP for the excavation is 1000. You can calculate your XP gain as follows:
XP = 1000 (Base XP) × 1.8 (Material Multiplier) × 1.2 (Site Multiplier) = 2160 XP
So, in this scenario, you would gain 2160 XP for excavating that historical material at the Everlight site.
