Archaeologists have the ability to give a group-wide dungeon buff to all their party members upon entering Cataclysm's 5-man dungeons. Each buff is gained through a repeatable quest during which the appropriately leveled archaeologist turns in a specific keystone to activate the zone-wide buffs. The specific turn-in locations are near the beginning of each dungeon. Here are a list of the buffs available:

• Blackrock Caverns Dark Iron Contingency Plan: Reduces elemental damage done to you by 5 percent; requires a Dwarf Rune Stone.
• Throne of the Tides Waters of Elune: 10 percent bonus damage against Naga; requires a Highborne Scroll.
• Stonecore Might of the Earthen: Reduces physical damage taken by 5 percent; requires Dwarf Rune Stone.
• Grim Batol Vengeance of the Wildhammer: 5 percent damage increase; requires Dwarf Rune Stone.
• Vortex Pinnacle Whispers of the Djinn: Heals your wounds and replenishes mana slowly; requires Tol'vir Hieroglyphic.
• Lost City of the Tol'vir Tol'vir Secrets: 10 percent bonus damage against the Neferset; requires Tol'vir Hieroglypic.
• Halls of Origination Map of the Architects: Increases movement speed; requires Tol'vir Hieroglyphic.

Thanks, Uriah!
