Follow these steps to start mining:
1. Assign a wolf to mine: In the upper right corner, select a wolf and assign them to mine. You can't change the wolf for 24 hours. Each turn consumes 25 stamina from the chosen wolf. You can feed them using the "Feed" button below their avatar.
2. Mining locations: Based on your mining level, various mining locations are unlocked, each with unique ores. You gain XP for each smelted bar. The locations are:
- Lucid Lagoon: level 1 - copper, iron
- Spooky Spires: level 12 - copper, iron, silver
- Growling Grotto: level 27 - copper, iron, silver, mithril, lorium
- Fluorescent Fountain: level 43 - iron, silver, mithril, lorium, chaosium, gold, fluorescent
- The Deep Deep: level 62 - silver, mithril, lorium, chaosium, gold
3. Moonstone Shards: Regardless of the mining location, you have a chance to obtain Moonstone Shards while mining until you reach your daily max.
4. Start mining: Click on an unlocked location, and your wolf will travel there and mine ore automatically. The deeper the location, the longer the travel time.
5. Cart: Your cart, below the "Feed" button, fills with ore as your wolf mines. Ores are only used within the Mining mini-game and can't be seen in your inventory or traded. You can expand your cart space from the default 15 up to 30.
6. Smelting: When your cart is full, your wolf will return to the furnace to smelt the ores into metal bars. It takes 5 of a specific ore to smelt into 1 metal bar. You can then claim the bars, which are sent to your inventory.
7. Speed up mining: Use tools like pickaxes and wheels, created in the Crafting profession, to speed up mining and traveling. These tools wear down over time and need to be replaced. Equipped tools can't be replaced or swapped until they're broken.
