POWERmining! To Iron or to Granite?

Featured Replies

Simple question, which is the best to powermine? EXP wise, not for cash or anything, i'll be dropping it all.

iron,you can't powermine granite anymore as you need waterskins nowadays

Back by popular demand!

And I guess I just wanted to tell you, as the light starts to fade, that you aree the reason, that I am not afraid, and I guess I just wanted to mention, as the heavens will fall, that we will be together soon if we will be anything at all.

Iron, unless you want to bring a load of waterskins

Granite used to be the fastest but then Jagex updated it so you now need waterskins when in the granite mine. So I'd go with iron.

It's , first they remove the ability to mine further even if you're inventory was full and now they also do this, I hope they do something nice for the miners now, I'm very unhappy with what they''re doing to the miers now :(

Moved to Skill Help subforum

If Jagex ever made a perfect update, there would be players complaining about nothing to complain about.

First, it's not gay, unless mining is in love with mining...

 

second, miners have had it easy for far too long, it is one of the easiest skills to train, and only relatively recently have they put any difficulty into it, with the new ranging rock monster and waterskins for granite. if D pick comes out, everyone will complain that miners have it too easy all over again, and dmeand that iron can eat you or something...

Mining one of the easiest skills?? Since when might that be? It's probably not the hardest in the game, but it is certainly up there in the list of most difficult skills. The exp for mining is even that bad, that in order to get some decent exp, you cannot even bank! I can't think of another resource gathering skill that encounters that same problem (even in hunter you keep several items, such as chinchompas). Apart from that, it requires a huge amount of focus and clicking. Not like fishing or woodcutting, where you can easily bank your resources and only need to click every 10-20 seconds or so.

you can powermine granite still:

 

you need a bowl, four watersacks or so and all desert robes:

 

and you need to have done enkhara's lament; that way you have a watersource reasonably nearby.
