Mining Sites

Mining site at ::SZ

Infinity rocks at ::SZ

Ore selection screen

This site provides 13 ore options, ranging from clay to Primal. Talk to the Snowman miner to change what ore will be mined from the Infinity rocks. Note that the Snowman may throw snow at you, this will cancel the action and you will have to click the rock to continue mining.

Mining site at ::DZ

Ore rocks at ::DZ

This site provides 6 ore options: Gem, Iron, Coal, Mithril, Adamantite, and Runite. The added advantage here is that the Snowman isn't there to interrupt your skilling.

Extra features

Skill of The Hour

Changing every hour, the Skill of The Hour grants an experience boost of 25% ecumenically in a designated skill.

Pool of Prosperity

The Pool of Prosperity is an object in the game located at home. When filled, it grants an experience boost of 10% to all players for its duration.

Shooting Star

The Shooting Star countdown timer to landing is located in the Server Events Quest Journal tab

Every hour a shooting star will appear which players can mine. This will disappear quickly, so if you're interested in mining it make sure you get there as soon as you see the notification. If you manage to mine the star in time, you can trade the stardust in once the star has been mined for some good cash or for gem bags.
