Everyone can do mining coz its the main source of your income in game ;)

To mine, first thing you need is save up minimum 15k of CP.

Equipment:
To mine you need mining tool which cost about 11k CP and battery which come in 3 type, 1800unit(3k CP), 3600unit(6k CP) and 7200unit(12k CP). The only different in battery is probably space saving.

Location: Crag mine field(refer to Sargara guide on how to get there.)

Tips and info:
- Basic rate outside portal is 60sec per stone/ore. Going deeper/further away will have better rate from 30sec to 5-7 sec per stone/ore but risky due to enemy races raiding the area.
- All stone/ore of different colors sell for same CP for same quality. Only 3 quality is seen so far, +1, +2 and +3 which is most valuable at the moment. Value differ by about 100-150CP each quality.
- Select any one type of color ore/stone and starting mining.
- When afk mining, stay close to guardbots if you are going leaving it to mine without watching the screen.

nice info.. nice to know i could mine lol.. i thought only specialist could ... this will help since im a mage and thier spells cost like $$$$$$$$ =P

but any idea what the battery is used for?? does it mean the more powerful drillbit u use or something the more power it needs? or maybe it increases your minning rate?

It appears that the batteries affect the time that you can mine for. So the larger the battery capacity the longer you will be able to mine for.

I can see this as coming in very handy when in the areas that gather resources much quicker because of the time you can let your character mine for.


I purchased the large batter for 12k and made about 75k

for some weird reasons..i dont know whats wrong i cant mine anymore
i created an accretia technician and went for mining, he comes with a drill and drill bits from the start. then i did something wrong and recreate another technician, this time it doesnt have a drill bits, so i went and buy one...however trying to click for mining few times, doesnt even work..i even tried with different types of drill bits but still doesnt works. If the mining is in process im suppose to see some effects on the drilll right? but i saw nothing..couldnt be a glitch too because the message doesnt change. Thx if anyone could figure the problem

P/S : juz figure out the problem..its the lag -.-"

As explained by this topic, There's a lot more to mining than just AFK abuse.

it was a translation .. ok I made a mistake whoopee!
fixed
ok .. thats out the way

here additional information on mining!
[img]

Buy a large battery

plus a miner of your race of course!
[img]BellatolCora[img]Accretia

ok here's the main cost for a large Battery it'll cost 12,752cp

Life is 7200 = in the \"pack of wolfs\" (safearea) den when mining be prepared to mine for 2hrs for one large battery

result after 2 hrs of being cluttered in the "pack of wolfs" product forsale should average out to 60,000cp - 80,000cp
profit for 2hrs grind between 48,000 - 68,000cp

after that go buy as many Batterys[img]as you can and leave over night !

Concentrate on any mineral! as they all same! in price
unless you are going to convert them into other products!

Ore prices are
+1 449cp Each
[img]+2 599cp Each
+3 749cp each

that should help you out a bit more

converting them into other products is another story
