How to unlock the Master Archaeologist achievement in Rise of the Tomb Raider - Definitive Guide
Step two: spawn into the level, quickly open the chest in the back of the vehicle, and start running in a straight line anywhere. Make sure to pick up any resources you pass on the way. Eventually your map will update as to having found a tomb, great!
Press down on the right analog stick and look around to find the blue light showing where the entrance is and go to enter it. Before you fully commit to spelunking, make sure your food and heat are pretty high, exploring can take awhile, especially if you don’t have the skills that spot traps or see relics through walls.
Carefully make your way through the tunnels, checking for traps (pitfalls especially) and going down every passageway, even if you have to double back to get it.
On average you get 3-5 relics per cave, so you’ll repeat this process 2 or 3 times. Run straight, find cave, safely spelunk, get money$.
Afterward, you’ll need to find a pyre (the triangular piles of sticks) usually located in shelters or enemy camps, you might have seen some as you were running straight. Don’t worry if you’re in one of those places and you don’t see one yet, you have to stand very close to them to put them on your map. Then just light the pyre, defend the area (sometimes glitchable by quickly standing in a patch of grass and not moving) and jump on the rope to escape.

Challenge: Master Archaelogist
Recommended Cards: Toxicity/Blazing Inferno/Boomtown, outfits that give the Bright Eyes skill is essential, such as Tomb Raider, Hope's Bastion, Immortal Guardian and so on.
Artifacts in Endurance mode are found throughout the map but the best way to find them is by looking for Crypts. As there is no in game map there isn't any way to accurately describe where they are; just run around the area constantly using survival instincts and you will find them eventually.
You can usually find 4 or 5 per Crypt including the Bow Parts and Codex upgrades found at the end of each one.

START THE GAME
Immediately in the back of the all-terrain vehicle, open the box, and, without being distracted by anything, run in any ONE direction until you find the signal fire ( photo ).
I recommend running in the direction where the left rear corner of the all-terrain vehicle is pointing. You will quickly come across a camp with a pond and an orange hemisphere tent, and a little further you will find a fire in front of the entrance to the crypt.
There is a chance that the first time, during the first day, you will not be able to find the signal fire.
You'll have to exit, set up the game again, and start over.
If you leave the forest on the second day, you will not receive the achievement.
Square Enix servers do not always work properly, so when starting the game (EXPEDITION mode), problems may occur and all previous mode settings will be reset to the initial ones. Just exit to the main menu and set up the game again.
