[[Image:Pickaxe.png|thumb|A Pickaxe]]
== Description ==
A tool with a hard head attached perpendicular to the handle, used primarily for [[mining]]. It is rather effective as a primary fighting tool, used well in conjunction with a [[small axe]]. This setup is ill-advised once you have access to weaponry.

Note that there are 2 versions of the pickaxe: the wooden newbie pickaxe which you cannot improve or lose at death, and the iron version which can be improved, but stays with your corpse when you die.

Mining

2007-08-16T00:27:41Z

Schizophrenic: New warning message

[[CDB | Main]] / [[:Category:Skills | Skills]] / '''{{PAGENAME}}'''

== Description ==

Mining is the skill of excavating rock and ore veins. The act of mining increases several [[characteristics]]: [[body strength]], [[body stamina]], [[mind logic]] and [[soul strength]].

== Method ==
There are several "modes" of mining, depending on where and what you mine. The method is much the same for all of them: Activate a [[pickaxe]], right-click the place to mine and select Mining -> (action).

Remember that Wurm is a 2D world. The cave layer is essentially a second world beneath the surface world. It is possible to mine upwards and downwards as long as you don't reach the surface or the water table. However, it is impossible to have one tunnel go above or below another. Each tile is essentially a pillar, so if two tunnels meet they create a shaft going from the upper tunnel to the lower tunnel.

=== Surface excavation ===

The first step in all mines is to make a mine entrance on the surface. This can be done on any [[cliff]] or [[rock]] tile. Surface mining is fairly quick compared to tunnel and ore mining. After 51 mining actions, the message "You will soon create an entrance" will appear. A few actions later an entrance will be created. The exact value is random, averaging around 5.

Surface excavation will produce [[rock shards]] on some actions. The probability seems to be around 25%.

=== Tunnel excavation ===

Mining a cave wall inside a mine will create a tunnel further into the mine. It takes 45 mining actions to produce the message "The wall will break soon", after which it takes average 5 actions to open the tunnel.

Tunnel excavation produces [[rock shards]] on every action.

=== Ore mining ===

Ore is produced by mining ore veins found inside a mine. When an ore vein is depleted, a tunnel is created as when tunnel mining. However, a vein can take several thousand actions to deplete, so it is advised to mine around ore veins for tunneling purposes.

Each action will produce one [[ore]] of the vein's type.

=== Floor and ceiling mining ===

Mining the floor or ceiling of a cave does not create tunnels. Instead, it raises (for ceiling) or lowers (for floors) the cave. Note that as with [[digging]], these actions affect the closest corner of the tile, and not the tile itself.

== Cave-ins ==

Any excavated cave tile has a chance of caving in. When this happens, the tile is simply returned to its former non-excavated state and can be excavated again. If you mine a tile soon after it collapses, it won't need as many mine actions as usual to re-open. Ore veins may appear in cave-ins.

Reinforcing a cave wall with a [[support beam]] lowers the chance of cave-ins, but reinforced walls cannot be excavated or mined. Ore veins are said to count as reinforced veins for purposes of stability.

== Skill and difficulty ==

Different ore veins have different difficulty. The easiest is mining plain rock, followed by iron ore and copper ore. The hardest are silver and gold. As with most things in Wurm, too low difficulty leads to reduced skillgain, while too high difficulty results in high failure rate. A failure results in a 1.00 QL rock or ore.

Items from successful mining have random QL, but the maximum possible is the lower of your mining skill and the tile's inherent quality. See [[prospecting]] for details about tile QL.

== Warning messages ==

'''''Note:''' Some of these messages aren't exactly as presented in-game. Feel free to correct the wording.''

Sometimes you will be unable to continue mining and presented with a warning message.

[[Image:Sideshaft.png|frame|right|Side shaft example]]

; The iron pickaxe gets stuck in the rock. : This one is a basic anti-macro measure. Move around a bit and you will free your pickaxe. Until then you will be unable to perform further mining actions.
; You have to move to free your pickaxe. It is stuck. : This means you didn't move around enough after getting the preceding message.
; You fail to produce anything here. The rock is stone hard. : Occurs on the surface. This means the tile you are attempting to excavate is actually an ore vein. There's nothing to do about it, you simply have to make your entrance on another tile. Note that if you make the entrance one tile below the vein, the tunnel will open right into the vein and cannot be extended until the vein is depleted.
; The ground sounds strangely hollow and brittle. You have to abandon the mining operation. : Occurs on the surface. This means there's already a tunnel on the tile you're trying to excavate. There's nothing to do about it, you simply have to make your entrance on another tile. Or you could search for the entrance (possibly caved in) to the existing tunnel.
; ? A dangerous side shaft will appear. : Occurs inside a mine. This message appears when the tile you are excavating shares a single corner with an existing tunnel. To excavate it you must first excavate so the target tile shares an entire wall with the other tunnel. See example on the right.
; The cave walls look very unstable. You cannot keep mining here. : Occurs inside a mine. Exact cause unknown, it happens when mining close to the top of the rock layer, and can sometimes be avoided by mining downwards.
; You hear falling rocks on the other side of the wall. A deep shaft will probably emerge. : Occurs inside a mine. Caused when there is already another mine nearby, but there is too much of a height difference to connect the two mines.
Other: "Dirt will flow in" has not been seen lately, it may have been replaced by "The cave walls look very unstable". There's also a message for attempting to mine underwater, text unknown.

== Ore veins ==

There are several types of ore which can be found while mining.

* [[Iron ore]]
* [[Copper ore]]
* [[Gold ore]]
* [[Silver ore]]
* [[Lead ore]]
* [[Tin ore]]
* [[Zinc ore]]

For details about ore location, see [[prospecting]].

Schizophrenic: /* Chain armour table */

[[CDB|Main]] / [[Skills]] / [[Smithing]] / [[Armour smithing]] / '''{{PAGENAME}}'''

=== Description ===
Skill is gained the first time you make [[armour chains]] with [[large anvil]].
Influences your success ratio at making and improving any chain armour related item.

Chain armour generally provides a middle ground base defense with moderate penalties to speed. The wearer will walk moderately slower and have a moderately slower attack speed. Chain armor offers a defense bonus vs stabbing damage, while the equipment itself receives extra damage from stabbing. A full chain set weighs 8.20KG and will slow you to 13.90KM/h on cobblestone when worn.

== Description ==
Press F2 to see your characteristics. Characteristics help when you perform actions depending on them.

* Body
** [[Body strength]] - High strength allows you to carry more, do more damage in fighting and destroying walls.
*** 21 strength is needed to get the option to destroy a wall.
*** 21 strength is needed to unpave or dig on roads.
*** 21 strength is needed to prevent damage to a [[Bag of Keeping]]/Master Bag of Keeping upon death
** [[Body stamina]] - Body stamina reflects how much stamina you can have in your stamina bar. Having higher stamina means you can take more damage before death, and do more fatiguing actions before becoming exhausted.
** [[Body control]] - 20.50 body control is needed to be able to use the steal command. Body control helps with chance to hit, accuracy or attack speed.
* Mind
** [[Mind logic]] - Primarily used by [[carpentry]] & [[smithing]].
** [[Mind speed]] - Primarily used by [[fighting]] and [[yoyo]] skill.
* Soul
** [[Soul strength]] - Soul strength helps defend against offensive spells cast upon you. [[Priest]]s of [[Libila]] and [[Magranon]] need 25 soul strength to become a [[champion]].
** [[Soul depth]] - Used by [[nature]] and [[cooking]] skills. [[Priest]]s of [[Vynora]] and [[Fo]] need 25 soul depth to become a [[champion]].
