Description

The ore system allows players to mine valuable resources from specific locations throughout the tower. Mining carries both rewards and risks, as attempting to extract ores may spawn dangerous creatures.

Location

Trade ores at the Forge on Floor 5 (Haven) to craft various items with different effects.

Mining Mini-Game

Interact with an ore node to start a heat mini-game. Tap to build heat and keep the needle inside the optimal band - too little heat is weak, but pushing into the danger zone risks overheating. Ore nodes respawn at their locations every 5 minutes.

Yield & Quality

The longer you hold the heat in the good band, the more ore you extract - up to roughly double the base amount. Holding it in the tight centre of the band rewards precision with bonus ore on top, and a high enough quality triggers a "Flawless!" strike. Your skill maps directly to your reward, with no random failure.

Overheating & Mimics

If you let the heat sit in the danger zone until the node cracks, it overheats and an ore mimic bursts out instead of ore. Ore mimics have health, damage, and experience that scale with your level - the more carefully you mine, the fewer mimics you face.
