Dragon pickaxe

Featured Replies

I was just wondering if anybody had any data or atleast opinions on how effective the dragon pickaxe is compared to the rune. I'm mostly concerned with Runite ores, so any help is appreciated.

thank you

So, Lone Star, now you see that evil will always triumph because good is dumb.

Well, you'd have to trust that it is more efficient, as there would be no point to it.

 

However, I believe tests have shown that, similar to the Dragon Hatchet versus the Rune Hatchet, the Dragon Pickaxe is ~10-15% more efficient than the Rune Pickaxe at mining ores. So, this would be good for anything that is above Iron basically. If you can afford it, it's worth buying, and selling back after you've done what you want with your Mining.

It's 15% faster than rune while mining pure essence, and those mine at a constant speed, and since that same kind of efficiency boost can be seen using rune compared to other pickaxes it'd be worth the investment.
