quickest 25-72 mining?

So just trying to get the mining level for mining living rock monsters. Any advice on spots to go to or quests to get to those best spots or whatnot would be appreciated. Thanks guys.

I guess powermining iron; but. I am not really sure.

 

The ardouge mibe ia pretty nice for that.

ok, that will be a good start til i get a lil more info. Also any idea at all about how much time it'll take?

Not really, I haven't trained mining in a long tine.

Powermining iron is indeed the correct way you should go about it, and if you wanted to, once you hit the level to mine granite from the desert quarry, then you can consider that too for a few more levels

If you have access to the dwarf mines resource dungeon (15 dunge iirc) then you could mine outside the dungeon, enter to use the deposit box, then return to the ores outside. Unless you use mousekeys to drop, I'm pretty sure it's just as fast as dropping, but with profit.

Thank you for the input on method. Any ideas on approximate time?

[ilovecuttingyews]

Once you can 1-hit iron, I think you can get maybe 1k ores/hour mined with depositing. You need 25k iron to get 72, so I would say minimum 25 hours. Though starting slower since you're a lower level, and normal inefficiences, I'd guess more like 35 hours.

Starting at about 60 mining, granite is better than iron.

 

I hate dropping stuff so i tokkul ring bank and use bandit camp lodestone back to the granite, and it's actually like 300k/hour profit, and 40k/hour xp. Pretty great, as far as low level mining goes.

Join a clan, mine in citadel. Fastest xp at low levels. Still pretty good at high levels.
