About Mining

Miners harvest copper, tin, iron, mithril, thorium, and more from mineral veins, then smelt the ore into bars.

The bars and stone feed blacksmithing and engineering, and always sell well to other crafters.

  • Blacksmithing: Smelt bars for your own weapons and armor.
  • Engineering: Supply metal and stone for every gadget you build.
