Cole
NPC and Starting Equipment
Cole: The NPC for the Mining Skill. He provides new players with a free Iron Pickaxe to get started on their mining journey.
Mechanics:[]
- Players must have a Pickaxe equipped to mine ore.
- Different rocks require different levels to mine ore from them. If a user's level does not match or exceed the level requirement of the rocks, they cannot mine it.
- Each Pickaxe has level requirements to equip as well as a hardness. The players level & pickaxe type will determine the effectiveness a user has while mining (Example: a user at level 45 with a Steel Pickaxe will mine ore faster than if they were using a lower level pickaxe or had a lower mining level).
Experience and Leveling:[]
Mining grants experience points (XP), contributing to leveling up the Mining skill. Higher-level rocks provide more XP and better resources.
Ore and their purpose:[]
- Ores are processed into metal bars
- Bars are forged into metal objects
