From Melvor Idle

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?

Assumptions:

  • The player is wearing the mining cape and has no double drops, no gem drops outside gem gloves.
  • 1.3 sec/action.
  • Avg. profit of 131 gp/charge of gem gloves.
Mining Resource No gloves Mining Gloves (MG) MG Essence, Coal MG Essence, Gem Gloves Coal
Essence (Mining Actions) 165,000 82,500 82,500 82,500
Coal (Mining Actions) 37,500 52,500 78,750 78,750
Action Total 202,500 135,000 161,250 161,250
Action Delta 0 67,500 41,250 41,250
Time Total (hrs) 73.125 47.750 56.88 56.88
Time Delta (hrs) 0 24.375 14.890 14.890
Cost Total 0 20,250,000 12,375,000 2,058,750
Approx Cost (Gp/hr) 0 415,000 212,000 35,000

So an investment of ~ 2 MGp saves ~15 hrs of time. -soup#8068
