Mining
Where each ore comes from, and how often you get it
How mining works
Equip a tool that can mine (a pickaxe), stand next to a mine wall and swing. Every swing uses one of that spot's stones, and two separate rolls decide what you get.
- 1. Hit
- Mine's hit rate + your weapon's Accuracy × 10, out of 100. A miss uses the stone anyway.
- 2. Payout
- On a hit, the mine's drop rate + your Mining % bonus, out of 100.
- 3. Which ore
- A random slot is drawn from the mine's slot pool; each ore covers a slot range, and uncovered slots yield nothing.
Accuracy on your pickaxe is worth a lot — each point adds 10% to the hit roll. Items granting Mining % raise the payout roll.
Ore purity is its durability divided by 1000, and it is rolled per ore. Purity is what refining cares about, so high-purity ore is worth keeping.
