You're either exaggerating, or very fucking stupid. It takes a VERY long time and a lot of work to 'empty' a mine. Also, it takes the better part of a day for ANYONE to track down a mine by triangulating its position. Might take you two days if its in a cave.Peter wrote: Here I am, spending weeks saving up to get a bar of cast iron, and here he is finding three or four mines an hour and emptying them at about the same rate. Makes me sick sometimes...
Why such a shitty attitude, anyway? What with boats and new grids now finding a mine is a LOT easier than before. You ought to do the same if you liek metal so much. Or just join a town that already has a mine. I know several that have up to half a dozen mines and lack the manpower to effectively mine them all.
