Just curious - but could a section on mining gloves be added? If the player could afford it from mining gems, wouldn't mining Rune Essence with Mining gloves and then mining coal be faster?

It would be around 82,500 actions (30 hrs @ 1.3 actions/sec) of x4 essence with gloves compared to 165,000 actions (60 hrs @ 1.3 actions/sec) of x2.


Now considering the player is short ~160k coal instead of ~80k, that would be 80k (30 hrs) / 40k (15 hrs) coal mining actions.

Assuming x2 Essence, x1 coal /action, x2 Coal / Action or x4 essence, x4 coal/action. 1.3 sec/action. Avg. profit of 131 gp/charge of gem gloves.

Actions
Mining Resource No gloves Mining Gloves (MG) MG Essence, Coal MG Essence, Gem Gloves Coal
Essence 165,000 82,500 82,500 82,500
Coal 75,000 37,500 75,000 75,000
Action Total 240,000 120,000 157,500 157,500
Action Delta 0 120,000 82,500 82,500
Time Total (hrs) 86.66 43.33 56.88 56.88
Time Delta (hrs) 0 43.33 29.79 29.79
Cost Total 0 18,000,000 12,375,000 2,550,000
Approx Cost (KGp/hr) 0 415,000 217,000 44,000

So an investment of 2.5 MGp saves ~30 hrs of time.
