Pickaxe quality on mining

Post by SynthAura »

If a rock is too hard for me to mine would a higher quality pickaxe make it easier? I'm getting conflicting info from the wiki's saying it only increases mining speed. Does it actually make it easier to mine, or does it only increase the speed/reduce stamina drain?

Any axe or pickaxe of higher quality will help. Pickaxes have the benefit of being faster.

Some other solutions to help are bear capes, bear tooth talisman, forge rings, and merchant rings. All help increase strength. You could try using boar snuff but it does not last very long.

Best of Luck! :D

Thanes would probably be the best bet as far as rings go.
