Mining

Mining is the first Player based skill introduced into Krafties in April 2013. Mining offers an alternative method of obtaining materials and loot used to mostly in Enchanting.

You will need:

• Available Rock Mine

You can mine from Rock Mines which you or anyone else owns. There are also some public Rock Mines in the main Krafties island.

• Krafties Pickaxes

Starting at level 1, you can only wear a Stone Pickaxe which can be crafted from your crafting temple.

Overview

There are 2 different factors that will determine how successful you are in mining: your player Mining Level and the material of the tools you use. As you improve in mining and level up you gain the abilities to wear faster and stronger pickaxes.

Your Mining level affects how much damage you do to a rock mine.

The material of your pickaxe determines how fast you can swing your pickaxe.

When the first person begins to mine, they become the mining leader of that rock mine. Critical hits and mined resources are all determined by the Mining Leader. Assisting a mining leader will help the leader get faster resources, although the assister will not receive any Critical hits

Ways To Mine

There are 2 methods to mine and gather resources.

• Hold-Mouse Mining

Whilst wearing any Krafties pickaxe next to a Krafties rock mine, click and hold your left mouse button anywhere on the screen and you will begin to mine. This is the simple, low experience way to mine.

• Critical Mining

Manually clicking each swing will give you much more reward in experience for those who like the challenge. By clicking once rather than holding, this will trigger a Critical hit timer (which is always 2 seconds longer than your pickaxe swing rate). When the Critical hit is activated, Yellow particles will flash. Quickly swinging during a critical hit will offer much more experience per swing and increase resource gathering. A successful swing will result in a flash of White particles.

Mining States

• Open / Ready

When a rock is available to mine, it will appear with a WHITE outline.

• Cooldown

Cooling down happens each time the rock is mined and appears with a RED outline . Cooling down happens for 60 seconds per time and will visually regain its normal size

• Overheating

Over heating happens randomly. The mining rock will appear BLACK and smoking. If you hit an overheating rock this will damage your pickaxe and give you a warning. Continuing this will result in an broken pickaxe.

Notes

• Mining with critical hits will increase your earned experience, faster resource gathering and maximum use out of your pickaxe.
• Pickaxes can be worn depending on levels. Pickaxes have different swing rates and health.
• Rock mines can be mined anywhere and there is no limit on how many can mine per at once.
• Materials obtained from Rock Mines can be converted using Alchemy
