Tarpaulin sheet is an item that can be bought from the Archaeology Guild Shop for 1,500 Chronotes, given by Acting Guildmaster Reiniger after advancing an Archaeology qualification rank, or obtained as a reward from an ancient casket.
When it is placed, the tarpaulin sheet is destroyed and the player receives a buff giving an extra 10% chance to find soil while excavating for 20 minutes. When wearing a full master archaeologist's outfit set while activating, the buff will last 30 minutes instead of the regular 20 minutes. The effect can stack up to an hour by placing multiple sheets; placing sheets that would put the timer to over an hour prompt the player with a warning and can only top the timer up to 60 minutes.
The tarpaulin sheet will have no effect while the Flow State relic power is active.
Based on the value of chronotes, the effective cost is 363,000 per sheet.
