Mining
Mining is one of the skills in which Medivia offers alongside the likes of Fishing. It does not cause any direct impact on your play, although can be used for future benefits or enjoyment.
Some other useful links:
Getting Started
In order to begin mining you have two options;
- Join the The Dwarf Faction and complete the first mission in order to trade with Grazlin, or
- Purchase an Advanced Pick off a player
Notes:
- An advanced pick costs 2,000gp from NPC Grazlin. From players it can more expensive.
- In order to craft items you will require the first mission of The Dwarf Faction to be completed.
- Both mining and smithing increase your Mining skill, although smithing is not as fast.
Mining
When you start out you will have a mining level of 10. At this level all you will be able to mine only Copper Ores. Remember that you can only mine ores in which you have sufficient skill to mine, otherwise it will just 'poof'. In mining, it can take numerous attempts in harvesting an ore to successfully mine it, as seen below.
Each ore will give different increases in your mining skill, except for; Copper, Silver, and Phenakite, which all give the same amount.
For a list of known ore locations, click Ores Location.
Mining Level | Ore | Rarity | General Locations |
10 | Common | Commonly found on the surface, although also found above and below surface in easy-to-get-to areas | |
15 | Common | Usually around mountains (e.g. Femur Hills, Mount Sternum, South of Thais) | |
20 | Common | Mostly underground, although not very deep. | |
25 | Found in cold areas, deep underground (e.g. Forgula) | ||
30 | Located in hot areas (e.g. Dragon lairs) | ||
35 | Deep down in cold caves (e.g. Forgula) | ||
40 | |||
45 | Very Rare | ||
50 | Very Rare | ||
60 | Extremely Rare | Only 4 known locations |
You will only obtain 1 ore, unless you have upgraded your Advanced Pick.
Pick | Ores Harvested | Cost |
1 | 2,000gp | |
1-2 | Advanced Pick, 15 Copper Bars, 10 Silver Bars, 8 Phenakite Bars, and 5 Chalcopyrite Bars | |
1-3 | Modified Pick, 10 Vanadinite Bars, 7 Bornite Bars, and 5 Wolframite Bars | |
1-5 | Enhanced Pick, 5 Gold Bars, 2 Carnotite Bars, and 1 Heliodore Bar |
Smithing
With smithing, you must go to NPC Grazlin and there you will find a forge in which you can 'use' the ores you have collected on the forge in order to create bars. Each bar you forge will require 5 of the same ore.
It is possible to create 2 bars from 5 ore if your skill is high enough.
Crafting
If you have completed the first mission of The Dwarf Faction, you will have the ability to trade with NPC Grazlin your bars for certain items.
Note: The following table lists the items by using the highest-rated ore in its requirement, starting with Copper as the lowest rated and ending with Heliodor as the highest. This list will not be in economic order, just from what types of bars it requires. For a list of items by their item group (Helmets, Swords, Legs, etc) go to the Grazlin page.
