Mining Teacher

Hit the jackpot, and you discover Isotope-238 or Thermium Liquidum.

They're essential parts of many weapons, armour, consumables, and the like.

That's all the info you need, newbie. Now go break some boulders!

Need a hand with something?

Think you can handle a pickaxe, fresh meat?

Got a task for you, if you're tough enough.

Now that I say it... doesn't sound that great.

Oh, and a bunch of little outworlder nuisances who get jumpy when they see a lump of iron ore.

Goldenfield - home to dense wildlife, denser lumberjacks, and the densest rocks you've ever seen.

Don't go asking too many questions, or I'll stick my pickaxe in your crag!

Outworlders like you are basically strip-mining the town - I don't need more competition!

Not too pleasant, being forced to play teacher to the likes of you.

Now I'm stuck babysitting outworlders, thanks to the posh Elanien government.

Been breaking rocks and rear-ends since before you were a twinkle in your father's eye.

Name's Thordal Ironvein, sweetheart.

Trying to make yourself useful, outworlder?

I want you to head to Westwind Woods. It's the best place to find Soft Crystal Veins.

Legend has it, a mighty river once flowed there. When it dried up, it left behind a treasure trove of Soft Crystal Veins.

Extract Soft Crystal from the veins, then process it into Powder Filler. Sound easy enough?

You disappoint me, rookie. Now run along, I've got real work to do.

Too scared of a little hard work, are you? Figures.

You're softer than freshly smelted gold.

Go on, run back to mummy.

If you're lucky, you'll find Moonstone, Ruby, Titanium Nuggets, or even a Diamond.

You'll usually gather Soft Crystal, Iron Ore, Ancient Fossils, and Meteoric Metal.

Once you spot a vein, focus and extract everything you can. No distractions.

In Dusktide Forest and Windreach Woods, you'll find soft crystal veins. There might be a few in the Grasslands, too.

The rockier the terrain, the better the chances of veins. The best place to look around here is Westwind Woods.

Start with soft crystal veins when you're a novice, and as you dig deeper, you can tackle Polymetal and Ancient veins.

Mining is the best! You find veins - they're all different, each demanding a unique approach.

If you're interested in mining, I'm legally obligated to be at your service.

I've got it covered, pebble. Run along now.

Best stick to picking flowers.

Nothing for you right now, gumdrop.

Go ask Zogar if he needs help hugging trees.

I'm all good, sugar plum.
