You mentioned some change to ore and purities in the change log (i think?)

Since then I've had about 8/9 lots of plat, and all have been below pur12.

Obviously this could just be down to bad luck, but has anyone else noticed a lot of low purity ore lately?

Khazard has dropped me gold, plat and bio and all of them have been below pur7!

Must just be my luck then!

Also been low on Adamantine... They must have lowered the rate of that.

Seems that way, I used to have enough adamantine to make a gem when I got a platinum before, now I seem to get more plat than I do ada

It's a good thing though, makes gems a little harder to make, so no complaints from me.

Can we get a little in-sight into the mining structure? I have no idea how it works? Does anyone know? Something like:

You have 50% chance to hit the wall, out of that 50% chance only 0.5% chance you get a plat. Out of that 0.5% chance of getting a play only 10% chance of it being between p12-15, and only 2.5% chance of it being p15+ etc?

Would be helpful. Does anyone know? Can GMs give a slight indication or clue as to how it works? even just a basic in-sight? Or is this one of the mysteries of Mir?

Thanks.

I'm not sure why you need to know, or why it would be helpful?

You sit hitting a wall hoping for some ore, imo it's as simple as that lol.

Iv noticed since the reboot getting hardly any plat maybe one usable with two charas mining in the space of 6 hours yet getting a ton of ruby ore. I take it mining has been adjusted again?
