or mining resources on low tier planets

These are block farming hammers. Who mines t1? Resource drops are a couple times higher per seam at higher tiers. Lol I’m getting up and down trying to sleep so I’ll try not to go on too much.

They’re leveling tools, mad cubit farmers, and also in the modern sov age, solid coin multipliers.

Those topaz hammers are going to drop 36000 blocks each in a block farm. For example, gleam, where the current market rate for bulk is 1c/block. This is going to hit you with a rate of 3.6 coins roughly for 1c blocks per coin spent. And it’s going to be fast. These are also going to spare the desire for much (if any speed brew, they’re useless with these.

In the beginning we only had T5+ for this. Now it’s largely, if not primarily, a T1 activity. I can get you posts describing this from the first month the game was live as a solid alternative to tables for active players, here’s one from 2019 with a vid:

'Gold Farming' - Money From the Minter

I think gleam gathering is too good because it gives much XP and minting value is ok. In your example you are using diamond hammer but I would use use ruby hammers if you collect gleam in Serpensarindi because those have more base speed and durability. To me also super fast brews feem to be enough, if those are easier to get than mega ones . If player needs xp refining gleam is really nice way to do after gathering gleam, and minting could be just byproduct to keep mindless xp h…

Recent videos on T1 block farming here - I went in an orb farm but if someone just wants rocks you can see how fast an inventory is filled with one of those sapphire tools from above, and fast brews:

High Speed (block) Farming

So today I decided to make a little video of some block farming. There’s been a lot of interesting discussions lately regarding various assists and things people do in game. I thought it would be helpful for the conversation, as well as for many players, to do a little demo. I won’t type out much more of what I actually say in the video. I don’t have a desk mic and I wanted to narrate this so, it’s a headset mic buried in my beard - the sound is not the best. I started o…

The OP has a video of a T1 gleam ball in it and a couple posts later you can see me using a shovel in a way you could use to fill your inventory with blocks in 5 - 7 minutes with one of these topaz.

If you’re looking to do something like this:

1 MB of Gleam

Here’s a mega block of gleam. 1036800 specifically. [image] Greeen [image] @kemyobra If karl doesn’t want to buy it I’ll offer it for bids. Or in a couple of days, I’ll churn it into something else I haven’t just stacked up a million blocks of anything in a while - last time it was white sedi. I needed a break from the sorting I suppose it’s reclaimable, here have a tower. [image]

Selling 1,008,000 black gleam

Hey folks! I’ve spent the last couple of days farming gleam for glass while channeling my inner @Nightstar and have ended up with some extra gleam to sell. If anyone wants to bulk purchase, let me know. If there is no interest, I’ll put them on shop stands for normal market price in a few days. [image]

You’re going to burn about 30 of these, 55 - 60 of the cheap ones. And this is still going to be a lot faster, unless you want to burn speed brews with the other hammers.

So, hammers are the least useful tools on T1 - if these had been shovels or axes they would already be leaving the stands. Nonetheless, if you go burn one of these out in a gleam ball, you’re going to go 260 profit (360% return) in 15 - 20 minutes with the proper build and maybe some starberry pies.

Drop rates for many resources are just like this:

Also the titanium hammer has 1500 durability so you’re starting off the bat (whatever you do to it) with 40% more hammer buying topaz. Since it takes nearly the same forging to achieve the same boon levels. Titanium is slightly more flexible but, yeah. 40% more dura and about 10% more base damage is the difference between 2650 and 4000 swings at that durability level. Or, a third titanium hammer.

I hope that helps.

Also @May-L04 sorry for your shop thread This goes well with what I was posting the last weeks about the game mechanics, though.

EDIT: I clarified a number and want to add that I’d rather make topaz or sapphires than titanium. A titanium hammer (base recipe) is 15 ores roughly from levels 1-4. There’s 15 gems in a gem hammer and other than the handle wrap they use the same materials.

EDIT 2 after some cooking: Not to disparage anyone’s play style. New players need to work their way up and some people stay in a comfort zone. I don’t know many players that work the high levels who would ‘waste’ titanium on tools any more. Titanium is a disproportionate effort to make and it’s best (again IMO) in blocks.
