January 3, 200620 yr OK I'm not sure if this is the right forum so no flaming if I'm in the wrong place please. Does anyone know the spawn times for the different mineable items in Runescape? I know that world population changes the spawn rate but these are my estimates on a world of about 1000 players. Essence: N/A Copper: 4 seconds Tin: 4 seconds Iron: 8 seconds Silver: 92 seconds Coal: 45 seconds Gold: 91 seconds Mithril: 193 seconds Adamant: 370 seconds Rune: I'm Unable to mine. Please leave data. It seems that each step takes about 2x as much time as the step before it. Addy takes almost twice as long as mith and assumably rune takes about twice as long as addy. Will update as information comes in.
January 3, 200620 yr Author i **Think** that rune is around 5 minutes give or take. Population of world also effects respawn rate! More people=Faster Respawn! Rune cant be 5 minutes because addy is over 6 min. The population of the world does affect the respawn but that's why at the end I said it's about 2x as long. No matter the original respawn rate, the next ore will be 2x as long of a respawn. :)
January 3, 200620 yr ^^ As said by Cmon, the population of a world significantly changes the spawn rate, the slowest i've seen coal spawn at is around a minute and a half, double your estimation! :shock:
January 4, 200620 yr as i have been mining alot recently iv noticed that there is an average respawn time but also the other rocks affect when you get the rock you are mining, if you dont understand that i mean i generally seem to 'get' the ore when another rock or ore respawns in the same area, also sometimes can 2 people get the same ore from 1 rock? in my experiance, yes

January 5, 200620 yr i already waited a rune rock back in heroes guild after mining it...dam...it took arround 15 mins, not joking. Im not sure about 15 mins but i checked the clock and it was more then 10 mins
January 5, 200620 yr its all here on runescape realm site. (sorry for the outside link) addy takes 4 mins 30 secs (i always thought it was 5 mins) runite takes 30 mins to respawn Are you a member with a full bank and cancelling your subscription?
