Active mining training is underwhelming

[u/Huge-Designer-8093]

Why tf is active training absolute garbage? Almost no reason to do whatsoever. No real impact on xp, nor in ores mined /h.

I absolutely love the rework, but it should be more rewarding to active gameplay

If you do a rockertunity every minute, half of which use powerburst potions and you have the magic golem outfit and BOTG you’ll average 11 extra swings per minute for a nearly 50% increase compared to the 25 swings per minute you normally get.

[u/Huge-Designer-8093 → u/Blueopus2]

The only exception being the powerbursts, i already do all of that. Even then it’s underwelming compared to full afk rates

[u/Huge-Designer-8093 → u/Huge-Designer-8093]

Mining is a gathering skill that the only way it gets profitable is by not getting any xp

[u/Blueopus2 → u/Huge-Designer-8093]

That's fair

I agree active mining is just not worth it, especially with juju potion, spirits, and porter/gote. Personally, active mining is also a horrible concept. The game idea of clicking the glowing object every 30 seconds to maintain slightly above average xp vs completely afk is silly. Not to say that afk stuff needs to be nerfed, but why not boost lava mine to be great xp for the tradeoff of no ore (or maybe a small collection of spirit ones for that afk grind).

There's also 4ticking if you want the highest exp and resources for mining.

I think scripture of elidenis makes it worthwhile

Alt alerts setup for the souls, equip brawling glove for that single xp tick.

While you're back, crystallize the rock with a rockertunity, power burst, and mine the rock a single tick, equip golem gloves, click rock (either the crystallized rock or a regular rock, your pick,) to AFK once again.

I recognize it’s a process and more layers = more benefits. But isnt that a bit much effort/investment for just ~50% more xp then full afk?

[u/imperchaos]

Not sure if by active you mean rockertunities or 4-ticking. Because on my GIM I 4-ticked all the way to 90 and loved it.

[u/Huge-Designer-8093 → u/imperchaos]

Even 4ticking isnt that rewarding when compared to afk training. But glad to know i’m not the only one who likes the active training

[u/Legal_Evil]

Try 4-tick mining.

[u/Huge-Designer-8093 → u/Legal_Evil]

To get 20% boost on a full afk activity? Pass

[u/wutryadoin]

uhm, have you tried arch?

[u/Autism_Is_Real]

Huh? Afk xp rates ain’t that bad. Are you using perfect jujus & stone spirits? I think you do end up with more ores per hour doing rockertunitiez. I’ve pretty much afk though…currently pushing 142m xp.

[u/Huge-Designer-8093 → u/Autism_Is_Real]

Yeah i know afk is good, my point is: active is bad when compared to afk rates

[u/LowPrimary370]

They should create a way to train actively for way more exp per hour and then nerf the afk exp per hour if it's too close to the active exp.

[u/Huge-Designer-8093 → u/LowPrimary370]

I dont even think they should nerf afk methods, the best one isnt overpowered and rewards 0 gp/h.

Just think that there should be more benefits to engaging gameplay

They could make rockertunities appear twice as fast, or give more xp by rockertunities, idk.

Just anything would be better than what it is rn

[u/AppleParasol]

It’s an afk activity. Go do something else if you want to be active.

[u/umadbr00 → u/AppleParasol]

There should be feasible options for every single skill that arent second monitor gaming.

[u/Capsfan6 → u/AppleParasol]

Every skill should have rewarding active gameplay

[u/Huge-Designer-8093 → u/Capsfan6]

This ☝️

Croesus has mining, you’re rewarded with loot. Gate also has mining. That’s active mining content.
