Editing Mining (section)

== Mining Power ==
Mining Power improves your chance to successfully mine a rock; it's separate from your Mining level. Sources:

'''Pickaxe (equipped tool, required to mine):'''
* [[Copper Pickaxe]]: +1
* [[Bronze Pickaxe]]: +4
* [[Iron Pickaxe]]: +12
* [[Steel Pickaxe]]: +25
* [[Dwarven Pickaxe]]: +50 (tied for best)
* [[Mithril Pickaxe]]: +50 (tied for best)

'''Armor:'''
* [[Mining Boots]]: +5 (dropped by [[Skeleton Miner]])
* [[Mining Gloves]]: +15 (craftable at Smithing 21: 2x Steel Plate, 2x Steel Bar, 2x Rough Leather)

'''Power Gems''' (socketed into jewellery; a ring and an amulet each have their own gem socket, so both can be filled at once):
* [[Mining Power Gem]]: +5 (0.1% drop from Gold/Volcanic Gold rocks)
* [[Strong Mining Power Gem]]: +10 (members-only, untradeable; drops from Ebony rocks, see the table above)

Stacking the best of everything (pickaxe + gloves + boots + a Strong Mining Power Gem in both the ring and amulet slots) gives 50 + 15 + 5 + 10 + 10 = '''90''' Mining Power.

There's also a [[Mining Potion]], but it boosts Mining '''level''' (+5 for 600s), not Mining Power - a different stat.
