99 Mining the hard way

Dupe kurac · **Posted:** May 24th, 2010, 4:53 pm

So i've decided to go for 99 mining. Mining has always been a favorite skill of mine but i've never had the patience to just sit there and mine all day, but things have changed.

I currently have 69 mining and i'm mining coal and mithril at the mining guild. I am going to get 77 there and then move on the the Living Rock Caverns to mine coal and then once i get 80 i am going to mine gold all the way to 99

I realize this is going to be a long and tiring goal, but the profit i will make is keeping me motivated :lol:

My profits will be about:
77-80= 2.4M
80-99= 52M
So in total about 54M or so
I may smelt the gold ore into bars and then craft the bars into amulets but that's a big IF

I'm currently mining at the mining guild. I keep my private and public chat off. Some may think that's crazy because of how bored i may get but i actually just watch TV while i mine so it's all good =)

The hard way would be to NOT use the living rock caverns >:(
BUT anyhow, I wish you luck on your journey to 99 mining!
A long and laborious goal, but worthwhile and fulfilling. Grab a laptop if you want to watch TV while mining

I'm extremely biased towards mining enthusiasts, it's just a letdown how everyone is using the caverns now...

Anyhoo, enjoy the ride.

Sounds like a good strategy, but very time consuming and demanding the utmost patience.

Good luck and hope you can stick to it through the end.
