Can't find skeletal hands

[geekgirl101]

I'm having a tough time finding the artifact Skeletal Hands. I know they're dug up from artifact spots and dropped from haunted skulls, but as of 1.5 they're rarely dropping. I've gone several times into quarries and redoing quarry levels in the mines on lucky days, I have the extra luck bonus from the secret note, but I'm having no joy. Dig spots are mostly giving clay and rarely anything else. It's happening in all my saves too. Any thoughts?

Okay, the Skeletal Hand before 1.5 could only be found at artifact spots in the Backwoods and at the Beach. Now with 1.5, you can find some on the island too.

That said, they're hard to find. They are NOT common at all. They're usually one of the last things for me to get to complete the museum collection. Keep plugging away.

Yeah, took me 2 game years to finally get one. That was me constantly going in and out of a quarry level for way too many days. On the plus side I've almost completed monster slayer for slimes. :P
