Mining

Mining lets you harvest overworld resource nodes for materials, geodes, keys, and crafting ingredients.

All numbers on this page reflect the current default configuration.

Nodes (spawn + respawn)

• Each overworld map spawns 4 mining nodes by default.
• Nodes reposition when cleared.
• Respawn time: ~5 minutes (300 seconds +/- 15%).
• Nodes try to respect a 3-tile spacing rule.

rocky	Rock-heavy terrain maps	Stone 50%, Iron 35%, Aurum 10%, Fossil 5%

Swing cadence, stamina, and XP

• Each swing costs 5 stamina.
• Stamina cap: 100.
• Stamina regen: +1 per idle minute.
• Action cap: 1 swing per second (60/min).
• XP to level: 100 * current mining level.

Geodes and the pity counter

Geodes roll a reward when opened.

A global pity counter rises when you land a non-rare, non-exempt result; after eight low-tier results, the next eligible geode payout upgrades to the best non-exempt option.

Notes:

• Bottle Cap rolls from Crystal Geodes are pity exempt.
• Rare rewards usually reset the counter (unless marked exempt).
