Mining: Difference between revisions

{{V|1.0.3}}

'''{{PAGENAME}}''' is used for Mining [[#Ores|ore]], {{ItemIcon|Rune Essence}}, and [[#Gems|gems]]. Each Mining action takes 3 seconds, and can be reduced by 5-50% by purchasing [[#Pickaxes|pickaxe upgrades]], 15% by purchasing the {{UpgradeIcon|Master of Nature}} god upgrade, and 0.2 seconds by reaching the 50% [[#Mastery Pool Checkpoints|Mastery pool checkpoint]]. The [[#Pickaxes|pickaxe upgrade]] and {{UpgradeIcon|Master of Nature}} reductions are additive with each other, applying before the 0.2 second [[Mastery]] reduction, resulting in the lowest possible action time of 0.85 seconds. Ore and rune essence amounts can be doubled by wearing {{ItemIcon|Mining Gloves}} with active charges. Raising Mining to {{SkillReq|{{PAGENAME}}|99}} will unlock the {{ItemIcon|Mining Skillcape}} for purchase from the [[Shop]]. Equipping the [[Mining Skillcape]] will give 1 bonus {{ItemIcon|Coal Ore}} for every Mining action.

Rock HP determines how many ores can be extracted from a rock before it has to respawn. All rocks passively regenerate HP at a rate of 1 every 10 seconds, stopping when a rock reaches its maximum HP. Regeneration does not occur while a rock is respawning after being fully depleted.

Maximum rock HP is calculated as follows:

<!-- See in-game function: getRockMaxHP()

| 1 || 6 || 61

| 2 || 7 || 62

| 3 || 8 || 63

| 4 || 9 || 64

| 5 || 10 || 65

| 10 || 15 || 70

| 20 || 25 || 80

| 50 || 55 || 110

| 75 || 80 || 135

| 99 || 104 || 159

The [[Skillcapes|skillcape]] can be purchased from the store for {{GP|1000000}} after the player reaches {{SkillReq|{{PAGENAME}}|99}}.

Pickaxes are permanent upgrades purchased from the [[Shop]] that decrease the amount of time it takes to mine ore by their bonus speed percentage. In addition they provide a chance to double ores. The bonuses provided by these upgrades are permanently active once purchased, they do not need to be equipped or otherwise enabled.

Higher tiers of ore are unlocked as the player's Mining level increases. Mining {{ItemIcon|Rune Essence}} yields double the amount of ore, however {{ItemIcon|Gem Gloves}} will not work when Mining it. To begin Mining {{ItemIcon|Dragonite Ore}} the player must have at least 271 Mining [[mastery]] levels in total.

Each Mining action has a 1% gem find chance, which can be increased by +1-15% when the increased chance to receive gems modifier from {{Icon|type=constellation|Terra}} is active, or can be increased to 100% when wearing {{ItemIcon|Gem Gloves}}. If the {{ItemIcon|Clue Chasers Insignia}} is equipped, then this chance is increased by 10% of its current value (For example, a 20% chance becomes <math>20\% \times 1.1 = 22\%</math> when Clue Chasers Insignia is equipped). The chance to receive a gem is capped at 100%, so any bonuses above this limit have no effect.

The possible gem drops are shown in the table below:
