mysterious artifact for iridium piles

[Opal]

Is someone willing to part with their mysterious artifact so I can complete the achievement without needing to go thru the story + Ava’s quest line again?

You don't need one.

Go to Voracious Canopy And bear left toward the Science Outpost there will be a New-U on the left side before you enter the gate. Trigger New-U station and walk over to the Eridium Cave and drop to bottom. Smash Eridium piles at very bottom then slowly walk around the area aim at floor when it says melee do it. Jump up a to the ones right above you rinse and repeat. Should find 4 or 5 piles and get 100 or so Eridium for your troubles .Save Quit do it again.

even if they don't need one, having a mysterious artifact would boost the effectiveness of your method even further, would it not?

True enough. Though my method only takes maybe 10 minutes longer to get all 50 piles and you don't have to wait around for some one to hook you up.
Try it the next time your in that area it works quite well and you don't have to carry the Artifact. Just a little work around.

Additionally there are a number of places around the world where invisible eridium piles regularly spawn. When you become familiar with their locations it doesn't take long to crack 50 piles as you make your way around the maps. I always kill Skrakk at Ascension Bluff when passing. There are invisible piles there under visible piles that rotate their location in the area.

I'll remember that one. Thanks!
Add the building with the Red Chest in the middle of Carnivora to the list too.
