Mining
Mining
Mining is a gathering skill that allows players to extract ores from rocks scattered throughout the world. Ores can be smelted into bars at a furnace, which are then used in Smithing to create weapons and armor.
Getting Started
To begin mining, you'll need a pickaxe equipped in your hotbar. Approach a rock and tap on it to start mining. Your success chance depends on the rock type, your Mining level, and the quality of your pickaxe.

Training Tips
- Levels 1-10: Mine Copper and Tin ore. These are abundant in the starting areas and respawn quickly.
- Levels 10-20: Switch to Iron ore for better XP. Iron rocks are slightly slower but give double the experience.
- Levels 20-30: Mine Mithril ore. Make sure you have at least an Iron Pickaxe.
- Levels 30+: Adamant ore provides the best XP but requires a Mithril Pickaxe.
