This method is recommended to use if you play Adventure and there's no better money-making method at hand.

1. Buy Gem Gloves,
2. Mine Dragonite Ore or anything below it until you unlock it,
3. Sell gems and ores that you got.

The method relies on the Gem Gloves that increase the gems drop chance to 100% when mining anything but the Rune Essence. The average value of a Gem is 383, while a single charge of the Gem Gloves costs only 225. Thus 158 of profit is earned per mining action from gems.

A fully juiced setup with the Dragonite Ore will give around 2,000,000 per hour.

Note that this setup already includes the
