SomeWelshGuy Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 I haven't mined properly for a very long time, probably 1 year ago was the last time I power mined. Granite was the best xp, and had no use whatsoever, so you simply dropped it. Now that summoning is out, granite has a use. I don't summon much, and don't mine much, so how would I go about mining granite now? Is there any point in keeping the granite, and if so, which weights? Thanks Retired Tip.It Crew Mapper.

Sindarin00 Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 I would keep the bigger blocks now (5kg) as you can use a chisel with them and turn them into 500 grams. Keeping the 5kg blocks only will net you the most money per trip if you decide to bank/chisel/and sell them. Instead of having say 20 500 grams, you would have 20 5kg, which would be 200 pieces of 500 gram after chiseling them.

purewcnub Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 Granite is useless. Drop it. No one buys it or anything. Only use is junk trading, which isnt even worth banking the granite for.

Oookay, and why did 5kg granite pieces rise to nearly 10k a piece? You obviously dont pay attention. Okaaaay, il tell you the truth. The truth is that manipulators bought a ton of granite for max price, and since it is never really traded, the price soared. Nice try, I don't say stuff blindly.

Kietaro1 Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 Wow I am not really sure what to make of this thread. Granite is useful to mine as high level summoners will buy granite for very quick summoning exp. Since the update of being able to chisel it. Keeping the largest bits are best as you can make them into the smaller chunks. And to pure, I hope you are kidding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try selling granite before saying something you have not proven :lol: With the update came a balancing of ALL of the granite pricing. It is proportional now so as to make the prices fair. As to being able to sell it, think about it, if the price of granite all of a sudden shot up, don't you think that people are going to mine it? Thus flooding the market? Since it is HIGH LEVEL SUMMONERS that need them, I am sure that supply > demand right now. Soon that will be different. And selling the granite has nothing to do with how idiotic your posts have been. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kietaro1 Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 Read the forums, yes, Rants, no. Those are pointless. The kid is obviously pissed because he has been inconveinced. What you seem to be missing is the fact that the OP asked what would be best to do. We all gave him opinions. I would keep the largest chunks as it could be cut into smaller pieces and sold to high level summoners. And as to granite being a money maker? That has nothing to do with this thread at all. The OP said he was going to be power mining so I really do not think he is looking for a profit. As a result I suggest he power mine the crap out of it and only keep the largest chunks. And lastly I would suggest a bit of free thinking instead of being controled by the thoughts, posts, and even rants of others.[stats][/stats] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SomeWelshGuy Posted September 12, 2008 Author Share Posted September 12, 2008 Wow, spamfest :wall: Thanks to all the people who answered my question. And as Kietaro1 said, I'm not interested in mining for profit, just to powermine. All I wanted to know if it was worth keeping some of the chunks. I think I'll keep some of the 5kg pieces while powermining, they might sell at a later date, and might be useful if I ever get to the higher summoning levels. To all that were arguing that it doesn't sell, I don't want to sell it. I don't want to make money off it, so that is not a problem. Could a mod please close this before it creates more spam.

rangeor Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 rofl. ( as i stated granite is almost unsellable, also stated by the other guy) So what would you suggest? And like Kietaro said, just mine the 5kg pieces, Cut into 500g, drop in ge for min and they'll eventually sell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purewcnub Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 I would just suggest dropping the granite. I have had granite in the ge for 2 days at minimum and it hasn't sold. Goals: 94 magic94 ranged55 slayerAddy gloves-done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
