I finally had the patience to follow around a goblin digger the other day. Honestly, unless that gets better with leveling, it is SO NOT WORTH IT. Heh, I always figured that and the quest were just woven into the game to get people interested in chocobo digging.
It took 45 f***ing minutes. And then I wasn't paying attention when he did it, so I couldn't even get a good screenshot! And I got a sack of teeth. Woo.

I'm very curious about the quest I think you're talking about - "Orlando's Antiques" ... I'm wondering if anyone has actually ever completed it, if there's any reward at the end at all other than the measly gil he gives for each item. I created a thread on the Quests board, but if anyone here has any info, I'd appreciate it ...
I've given up about 50% on Diggers, hehe ... I know where they travel in mosts zones, so I made a rule for myself that if I find one & they're going the same way I am I'll follow them, otherwise not.

I've been digging lately and I'm not sure that there are actual levels. I'm leaning towards it's luck/moon phase/day.

there are 100% actual levels. Wait time decreases as your dig skill improves.

I've begun digging, dug for about 4 hours so far, still at /wait 16...
Is this normal?
I'm probably about breaking even currently, with interesting finds like Petrified Log, a few Rosewood Logs, a ton of Danceshrooms, 2 Iron Ores in the desert, a Sack of Teeth from a Digger, and a Chicken Bone from a digger....

If you manage to break even at wait 16 your doing damn good. And ya its normal to take awhile to level.. 4 hours is a max of like... 40 stacks of greens.. bit more? Around 100 stacks start looking for a skillup...

I think either the test items are BS, or theres multiple test items for each level. The reason I believe this is because my friend got to the same 6 second delay that I got to by digging in the desert, while I got to it by digging in the jungle. I've also dug up so many cinnamon sticks, danceshrooms, rosewood logs, mahogany logs, and ebony logs since I got to 6 seconds that I should have 0 delay by now, but it's not happening (I believe cinnamon sticks is listed as the test item to advance to 0 second delay, and I would think that digging up as many danceshrooms and logs as I have done would have brought me to the test item stage).

I got to level 2 today (11 seconds) at around 100 stacks (I didn't start counting in the beginning, instead had to do some math), so it is definitely by greens used, not level up items.
Anyways...haven't noticed any difference in successes...still a lot of "fails"...  |
