Mining update was too powerful, so they nerfed it

sandstone and granite only that is... the update is still really gerat and gloves are useful in many places.

my gudness

[@HolyCannoliBob]

How come?

[@farmboy805]

Don’t worry, the bots will gladly take his place there

[@waty0usay1]

yeah because the keys have tanked in price.

[@shore73]

so many bots there now lol

[@doddy125]

their quick to fix an xp rate but the bots still run wild.......

[@ryleymcrae7234]

Do you understand these issues are worked on by different teams?

[@Mbomb101]

Why don’t they just tell botters to stop?? 😮

[@CMKloser]

Bro acts like there is a team stopping botting when anyone can log in and find a bit within a couple minutes. There is zero active moderation of bots. Jagex doesn’t care

[@omgfackdehell]

Yeah thats totally comparable ..

[@Acecraftable]

Not to mention the legitimate false bans still happening.

[@Fooshi]

reason they turned it off was because people found out that if you angle the camera you can click between 2 rocks while f key spam hide/show invy so you can just spam left click to drop ore and were getting 200k+ xp per hour, no need to move mouse or camera.

[@WilliamMcAdams]

Man, stinks people found an actually good method, then it got insta banned.

[@ubermass4202]

LOL that last rune rock :D

[@Sthasn]

I swear I only get this kind of news AFTER the patch.

[@AmazingTSDO]

Broo sameee. Just returned back to the game and getting 99 wc rn

[@goldchris1111]

mining amethyst is way more afk now so its pretty great

[@tiestofalljays]

Stars or bust tbh

[@davidwells5888]

dudes using a crystal pickaxe at shooting stars XD

[@scape001]

Wtf was the ending "I will never see you again"

[@survivormandan8576]

Dovy will you make a video on Nex Mass FFA / Mini Mass FFA? Ive been here for 3 days and ive seen a total of 8 drops so far, with one 2x drop. Might be worth looking into 👀

[@RapSnackOSRS]

Sounds awful

[@JohnDoe-yp7qm]

Wait... so the theory is they fixed it because nobody was mining iron? Even though iron is a level 15 rock. What's so wrong with letting people move on from mining iron ore?

[@jeremy322345]

If you look at rs3 they changed exp rates to benefit you to mine whatever you want. Yes the exp varies but not nearly as shit as osrs. Trying to ensure you don't just go to next highest lvl and sit there bc that's boring and useless.

[@PassiveDamage]

​@@jeremy322345 you brought up rs3 as anything other than an example of failure? whack you must be a dev or missed rs2 entirely but either way no you absolutely should not get the same xp rates for shrimp as sharks otherwise there's literally no point in levels

[@jeremy322345]

@PassiveDamage did I say same? Reading comprehension isn't osrs players strong suit

[@Gordo525]

@@jeremy322345 thats not how it works on rs3. you will always gain more xp on activities that are higher level, the only difference is that active training methods grant more xp/hr than afk methods. if you see someone doing lower level methods when they have a higher level it's because the output is worth money or the method is more afk.

[@shrimpy7862]

Isn't that the exact point they made? Mining iron gives considerably better XP than other high level ores you unlock well past 15@@PassiveDamage

[@jareypoohbears]

Iron is a level 15 ore. You can make a new account and mine iron in less than 30 minutes. The meta xp shouldn't be something you gain access to at .005% into the grind.

[@akyourmama1]

I feel like such a noob whenever a friend says most people afk while doing something in real life, I’m the one who’s not afking paying attention the screen no matter what lol…

[@PowerSurge503]

Dang didn’t make it into your video. We did some Zalcano together

[@BlacPlague]

I was really looking forward to being able to get more sandstone per rock just to get sand faster. Wish they'd just tweak the xp rate for sand and granite when wearing gloves instead

[@LouiesLog]

Time to reset osrs back to 2006

[@YoItsJoozu]

2006scape please.

[@negaopdiebeat]

Aaaaahh.. the days i spend in the motherlode mine when there was no hopper upstairs and i did 99 on my phone.

[@demangoozle5525]

praise dovydad

[@davidwells5888]

meanwhile im getting 99 mining through amethyst

[@daydreaming5365]

It's really silly that a rock you unlock at level 45 is even a contender for the best xp rates in the game with or without the gloves.

[@Wh1teSomali]

Prospector items did not change price. Those are the prices its always been

[@mr_knowledge_]

I'll send my uim to the wheels in mlm to hop. I don't think I will be able to do it alone

[@VIIOfficial]

gonna be waiting for yall at runite in the wildy 😈😈

[@Jtb1122own]

I ice burst my mining xp

[@The38alt]

They still work. It's just the giant crybabies that are crying that it's nerfed and useless when it's still good gloves.

[@jarad9946]

players getting decent mining xp overtakes swarms of bots in the priority ladder

[@PkMasterOO36]

Game is broken people rush to 99. No content that's playable

[@fajile5109]

Yeah half the games empty because of xp meta. Everyone wants to get to 99 so they can “start playing”

[@cgistiffy3642]

dovy play rs3 group iron with me

[@borisyeltsin6606]

chips

[@HavocParadox]

they need to do the mining rework from rs3.. its just so good

[@forgives12]

I agree on that

[@fuzzydunlop2328]

Damn never been this early

[@daqfanq]

Easy peasy lemon squeezy 🤠

[@anorangewithacapybaraunder2370]

Jagex: Let’s make grinding even more unbearable and torture our players Also Jagex: _bot lives matter_

[@Alleggsander]

They made a slow grind more afk and easier to grind. How is that making it more unbearable and torturing players?

[@cHaMp630]

@@Alleggsander Who cares? Mining is an outdated horrid skill that provides mediocre gp/ph compared to even revenants and zombie pirates for mid levels while also offering some of the worst xp rates of any skill in the game for some arbitrary reason. At least thieving is 200k xp/ph while making 2-3x the gp/ph of mining by the time you get to vyres / elves.
