Featured Replies

Rune picks mine (and correct me if I'm wrong) 10% faster than addy picks in general.

You're more likely to get the ore at any given time, so you end up spending less time hitting the rock.

 

 

 

With ess, the general rate increases.

I've always thought it continues hitting longer automatically until you get an ore... a dozen hits?

It did in RSC, all picks hit forever now, though higher ones are faster.

and how do you use ess on a pick axe?

everytime u hit a rock with a rune pickaxe, u hit it like 21 times until u have to click the rock again, that is if u dont get the ore sooner, addy is like 15 or so, not sure though cuz it dont take me that many swings to get the ore

Rune essence is a type of ore which is used to make runes, you can mine rune essence after doing a quest, rune mysteries.

 

 

 

And also the other advantage of rune pickaxe is if both you and someone else hit the rock at the same time, the person with the higher pickaxe gets there ore. If they are the same, the higher mining level gets it.

I love pure ess, lol, I get it so fast.

 

 

 

Yes, ess is a kind of ore that you can make into runes, but only with a certain talisman dropped by monsters sometimes, usually goblins have air or mind, men and women have earth, etc. There are stone pillars everywhere that you use the talisman with and get teleported to a place where you can make aire runes or mind, etc. They are spread out all across the area, so you can't use one pillar to make all kinds of runes. Also, naturally, you cant use noted ess.

 

Now, pure ess is another thing. Its only up for members, and it has extra capability for crafting runes. Now, I'm not a big runecrafter, so I don't know what this extra capability is, so don't ask me.

 

 

 

That about covers it. :D

you have been gone for 2 years you say?

 

do you have any useless items in bank like santa hats masks or party hats? I'd buy tham for a whooping 1million coins each!!!
