Title: Question about mining!
Post by: Ymeogamaouas on January 25, 2012, 01:24:15 pm
So I wanted to make a sledgehammer so I can go and mine stuff...

But I realised that in order to make a sledgehammer you need... Metal Parts.

In order to make metal parts you need Iron.

In order to get Iron you need a sledgehammer to mine it...

See the problem here?

So question is, can I mine with flint made primitive tool or with hatchet? Sounds crazy but I cant figure out how else this works...

Also is there now a chance on if you get Iron or Minerals? Cause last time I had played there were different stones giving different things. Now (before I died and lost my sledgehammer) I only kept getting minerals from the mine above Gecko... actually minerals and high quality minerals.

Now I know I could sell stuff and buy from vendors but all the vendors I checked in Gecko and VC had nor Iron, nor metal parts nor Sledgehammers...

Primitive tool will let you mine, if your looking for low quality minerals and regular iron ore just go to a protected mine area where you probably won't be murdered.

Primitive Tools are used to mine and chop trees.  And there are different piles that give ore or mins, you'll get to know the look of them after a while.
