Hello and Welcome!

 

 

 

I'm here to help you on your mining levels.as you can tell

 

 

 

Firstly to use my method, you need to have.

 

 

 

Requirements

 

*60+ mining level,

 

*Lunar Diplomacy,

 

*Patience.

 

*Lunar book ON

 

*68+ Magic

 

 

 

Inventory

 

If you have done "Dealing With Scarbs" quest, bring the enchanted water tiara, instead of bringing waterskins.

 

 

 

 

 

 

And here is what you should wear. (Doesnt have to be what I wear, just similiar)

 

 

 

*Enchanted Water tiara, so you don't need waterskins. (Dealing with Scarabs)

 

*You do NOT need arrows appearently.

 

*Desert robes & boots highly recommended.

 

*You could have ROL or no ring at all.

 

*Cape/hood you do not need.

 

*rune pickaxe HIGHLY recommended.

 

*shield doesn't matter

 

*A glory or ROD to teleport back to al kharid when needed.

 

*You could also wield a staff of fire/water if you'd like, Im sticking with pic in my hands though. :) (thanks Tryto)

 

*If you have a steam staff, that is also optional if you want to bring it.

 

*Ava's Accomulator is also an option (Eradicate It)

 

*Varrock Armor's if you have it, it has a chance to get 2 ores in 1 rock!

 

*Slave Robes are better than desert robes while in the desert, although you need to do "The Tourist trap" if you haven't already. -Cha0sx

 

 

 

 

For this method, you should have in your inventory; 100-300 Astral and fire runes, and what ever ammount of astral runes, times it by 3 to get how many water runes are needed.

 

 

 

You will be using Humidity lunar spell, which fills certain vessels with water. Takes 68 magic, 1 astral, 3 waters, and 1 fire rune.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Now for the mining part

 

 

 

You will be mining granite at the granite Quarry where you start Enarkha's Lanment. Heres a map of the Mining area. BUT beware! I'm always in w99! and this is where you'll usually find me here and this spot.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Now, when your there, go between the rocks (where I'm standing in my banner.)

 

 

 

Your 2 options

 

 

 

1)Mine away! When you in an inventory filled with granite, drop it all, then mine again! keep repeating it and you'll gain experience like crazy!

 

 

 

2)Mine 2 of the granite rocks, and before the rocks respawn again, drop the 2 granite blocks. That way you wont have to waste time dropping it.

 

Thanks to Wakka102, and Pokexpert.

 

 

 

When all 8 of your waterskins hit 0, Use Humidity and it'll fill all them up!

 

So you'll never have to leave until you run out of runes, or just bored!

 

 

 

Mining granite is the fastest method in the game so far. If your levelmaybe 50-59 you might want to try powermining iron in the mining quarry between the legends guild and ardy.

 

 

 

So that's all you need to know about powermining granite!

 

If I left anything out, or you have a question regarding this guide, just post a comment on this or my blog and I'll get back to you ASAP!(Just got 68 mining while typing this btw)

 

 

 

MINING EXPERIENCE PER HOUR:45k-50k

 

 

 

I hope you like this method, And i hope you use it!

 

 

 

Thank you to Wakka102 for coming up with the Humidity spell idea! Thanks!!!

Great guide! Good luck on mining! :)

Very nice guide. Well written and explanitive-ish/able.

 

 

 

Possibly an estimate on how long you could stay there with that amount of runes?

 

 

 

9.9/10 if it is a rate.

Goodluck with 99 mining. How much exp per hour is it?

Shouldnt u wield a staff to save runes, and keep your pik in your inventory?But still, informative. You might want tro include xp per hour at x lvl.

how much exp an hour do u get there?

If you do that method then it will take longer than if you mine, drop existing ore/granite then mine again quickly. Using this way you get and drop a ore before the rock respawns thus making this more effective.

YAY! Crusader made a guidezorz! Ill keep track of this one! Gl on 99 mining.

hawt

heh your welcome ^.^. and yea, mining in rsc was pretty awesome, you could camp there forever and the ores just dropped themselves. It was pretty sweet :)

Good guide, I'll make an effort to buy some astrals and switch to Lunar when I want to get 70 Mining. :anxious:

Nice guide but I prefer banking every ore :)

Nice guide but I prefer banking every ore :)

 

 

 

Thank you ^.^ but there's no reason to bank granite. :)

that's why hes mining 140k of gold :-#

Just one more thing I would want to see in this guide:

 

You should leave your first column clear of items (at least 3 or 4 spaces free) to assist quicker dropping, after dropping 1st ore, mouse would be over 2nd ore.

 

 

 

Alternatively you can place items such that all ores appear in most bottom row of inventory, click on the most bottom of the item and your mouse will appear on drop option

im eating a pixel stick....err pixy* and the suger didnt get stuck, woot woot!

Extra tip: You can also wear an ava accumulator there. :XD:

I'll add it ..lol thank you..

i wana do this on my skiller

 

so do u need any quest to get there and is there a cactuse(cant spell lol)around there as a lvl 3 cant use magic(also 1 cast prob make me 2/3mage

for the people done Varrock diary - they can bring the armour (at least second lvl is needed for granite). you drink more frequently (no desert robe top), but you get 2 ores on occasion - and experience is given for the extra ore.

 

 

 

the guide sais - granite is the best exp/h, but i am not 100% sure.

 

tested both granite and iron powermining and both methods were pretty close. (I could not do an exact measurement due to several distractions)

 

do you have exp/h for iron?

 

 

 

one plus of granite powermining is - less clicking, because it is a bit slower than iron and in the end less stressfull on the fingers :)

Nice guide. Wish I had powermined granite on my way to 85 mining (which I got in February 2007). Due to my free to player status mining iron at Rimmington was really, really slow exp. If I had mined granite I would be 94 by now! =O

 

 

 

Btw, For the spell Humidify you need Dream Mentor Quest as well. =D

 

 

 

~Fish~

theres a steam staff 0o? lol nice guide ill be there till i get 70 mining :twisted:
