Totem effect in Roblox Dig

As mentioned, Totems are special items in Dig Roblox that let you buff every player in their AoE. However, to use the totem, you will need to complete certain conditions to activate it. These conditions will usually involve digging up a particular number or type of items while you are in the totem’s AoE.

The buffs that a totem usually gives out include boosts to item rarity, boss damage, bonus XP gain on finds, and more. So you will want to maximize these items as much as possible when you have them.

How to Stack Totems in Roblox Dig

Dig Roblox has a system where you will be able to stack the effects of different totems together. However, you will only be able to have up to three totems active in the same spot. You will then be able to combine three effects together to make the most of your time farming for loot and XP in the game.

Best tips and tricks for using Totems in Dig Roblox

Here are a few tips and tricks to keep in mind to make the most of your Totems in Roblox Dig:

1) Try using totems when you are with friends

Totems should primarily be used when the entire gang is together. If you play Dig with friends, then save the item for a time when your friends are online. Then you can all hop into the totem’s AoE and allow everyone to make the most of it.

2) Totems should go up in active digging areas

Active digging areas will allow you to activate your totems fast. So when you are placing one, make sure it’s on a spot that has a lot of loot that you will be able to dig up.

3) Stack the right combination of totems

As you can stack totem effects, always keep an eye out for how you will be able to combine the right mix. So, make sure you are stacking XP, luck, and loot totems together to be able to make the most of your time farming.
