Talk:Mining

I won't disagree with a 90+ miner obviously. I merely added what I've heard some other sources discuss.

You should disagree with a 90+ miner who doesn't substantiate his claims. Removing the template until some concrete examples for correction are provided. - Dashiva 13:49, 7 February 2009 (CST)

New rock lowering and tunneling stuff

 Gonna dig through this article and modify based on the new rock terraforming ability and new tunneling actions

I will agree to that. Something about these stats does seem a little off. Mayhaps Artibaton will provide solid facts at a later date. -Aureate

tunneling seems to always produce rock shards from what I've experienced. - Skyefox

A discussion in CA chat has shown that you can lower the rock tile well below swimming depth even to let corbs pass through the cave canal. I am also adding that it is helpful to keep a rowboat close by for stamina regain when mining down pas water level. -Zachariah

yar

Some statistics I'd like to dump down.

I mined 1000 copper ore with a ql 66.6 iron pickaxe at 66.8 mining, I gained 0.70 mining skill, putting me at 67.49. Then I mined 1000 gold ore and gained 1.2 mining skill with the same pickaxe and level after I'd mined the 1000 copper. I don't know why people say gold is completely useless. It's really not.

Cleanup

Page is too big and could be confusing for new players. I'm going to create some sub-pages and move some of the stuff away. Also, anything which is considered a guide should really be moved to a guide page and not included on the main skill page. --Marni (talk) 03:58, 7 February 2013 (CST)

I've had a few questions on where the mining warnings went, This should be easier to find, but I don't know how to make it more .. visible. --Amiti (talk) 8:38 p.m., 16 feb
