Excavator Pit (Giant Excavator) is a unique tier 3 monument with no keycard puzzle. Instead, the running excavator can process HQM, sulfur, or stone ore when fueled — defended by a large scientist presence and constant radiation.
It is a long-term farming monument rather than a quick puzzle clear, and attracts heavy PvP when active.
