Best Shovel and Detector Combo in Desert Detectors

Getting Cursed Treasures With Pharoh Detector

One of the standout features of the Pharoh Detector is its built-in ability to uncover Cursed Treasures—but don’t expect them to appear often. The chance of finding one is only 5%, so be prepared to dig around quite a bit before landing your first cursed item.

What makes Cursed Treasures worth the effort? Their value is dramatically higher than standard finds. For example, while a normal chest sells for 500 Sheckles, a Cursed Chest fetches an impressive 12,500 Sheckles. If you're lucky enough to hit a Rainbow Spot, you’re looking at even more valuable loot.

How to Farm Sheckles for Pharoh Detector and Shovel

The cost of obtaining these elite tools isn't cheap. You'll need 2,000,000 Sheckles for the Pharoh Detector and another 575,000 Sheckles for the Shovel. That’s no small sum!

To speed up your farming process, focus on the Pyramids or the nearby Plains area. These regions contain rare spots like Rainbow, Red, and Yellow zones, which tend to yield more valuable treasures.

There's no guaranteed method to find Rainbow spots, but once you do, check nearby areas—they often cluster together. After each dig, scan the surrounding terrain thoroughly to maximize your efficiency.

Once you’ve gathered your treasures, consider upgrading them before selling. Smelting items can significantly increase their worth.

How to Smelt Found Treasures

To smelt your treasures, head to the Blacksmith Building located in Dusthaven, the starting area. Inside, you’ll find an NPC who will assist with the smelting process. Be sure to carry the treasures you wish to upgrade.

We recommend smelting high-value items such as Sphynx, Fighting Jett, Pharoh’s Pillar, or Submarine, as they offer the best returns when sold in their upgraded forms.

Keep in mind that the smelting process may take anywhere between 4 to 12 hours, depending on the treasure’s rarity. However, the process continues even while you're offline, so feel free to log off and return later to collect your polished goods.
