Mining Enchants

How to Read These Tables

Each row gives the player-facing Roman name (with the config id used by /enchant give and enchant books), the max level, the proc chance at max (or Passive/Milestone/Combo), the base Auctoritas cost for level 1, and the unlock prestige / rank gate (players must meet both). The final column is the plain-English effect.

Which mines do these work in? Mining enchants fire in all public rank-gated mines and the PVP Mine. The PVP-only combat enchants (Explosive-style damage procs like mine_bomb) only fire inside the PVP Mine region — see Combat Enchants.

Utility — Passive Buffs & Area Clears

The workhorse category. Efficiency, Haste, and Speed are the three early-game must-buys (all available from Rank 1) — they make every other enchant better by increasing your blocks-per-second. Vein Miner, Excavator, and the Jackhammer are the area-clearers that define a mid/late-game pickaxe.

Explosions — Area & Mine Resets

Explosions trade single-block precision for raw throughput. Explosive is the reliable passive area-mine; Depth Charge goes vertical; Chain Reaction spawns secondary blasts; and Nuke (Vesuvius) is the legendary full-mine reset that refills the entire mine on a lucky proc.

Lightning — Vein Floods & Storms

Lightning enchants are the prestige-8, rank-85+ tier of vein-clearing. Zeus's Wrath uses a BFS flood-fill to mine an entire connected ore vein (up to 250 blocks at level 5) with lightning visual effects. Storm Surge is a milestone that periodically clears a 7×7 area and pays a fat $50,000×level bonus.

Lasers — Directional Tunnels

Apollo's Beam is the only laser enchant, and it is a good one: on a flat 15% proc it fires a 3×3 cross-section tunnel of level × 5 blocks in whatever direction you are looking. Aim down to clear depth, aim along a vein to extend it. Pairs beautifully with Jackhammer for layer-plus-tunnel coverage.

Energy — Cube Collapses & Power Bonuses

Energy enchants collapse space around your break point. Void Rift (Chasm of Orcus) passively destroys a full 3×3×3 cube — 27 blocks — on every single break, scaling with level. Power Surge layers a flat money bonus on top of your base income per break.

Cosmic — Milestone Mega-Blasts

The cosmic tier is for the truly devoted. Nebula Blast (Aetna's Fury) detonates a 15×15 area — 225 blocks — every 400 blocks mined (scaled by level), and pays a $20,000×level bonus on top. It is a Rank 100, Prestige 8 milestone that rewards marathon mining sessions.

Dimensional — Rifts & Time Bends

Dimensional enchants break the rules of space and time. Wormhole opens a rift to mine a 3×3 area at a random location in the mine — great for hitting ores you cannot reach. Time Warp grants a burst of Haste + Speed + Jump for 5 seconds, letting you mine at furious speed during the window.

How to Obtain Mining Enchants

All mining enchants can be acquired through the same channels:

• The /enchant menu — buy directly with Auctoritas. This is the primary path. Costs scale per the cost-scaling and cost-multiplier columns (almost all are EXPONENTIAL).
• Enchant books — apply a book to your pickaxe for free, or fuse two same-level books for +1 (Denarius cost + failure risk above level 5).
• Crates — mid-to-high tier crates drop enchant books, including mining-category ones.
• Auction House — buy books from other players with Denarius.
• Voting & rewards — vote parties and milestones can include books.

Cost & Economy Notes

Mining enchants are priced in Auctoritas (tokens), not Denarius. Thebase-cost column is the level-1 price; with EXPONENTIAL scaling (the default) each subsequent level multiplies the cost by the enchant's cost-multiplier(typically 1.1–2.5). A 75,000-token enchant at ×1.5 scaling costs 112,500 for level 2, 168,750 for level 3, and so on — so pushing a single enchant to high levels is far more expensive than spreading levels across several.

Strategy — Building an Area-Clear Pickaxe

1. Start with speed. Efficiency + Haste + Speed (all Rank 1) triple your blocks-per-second before you spend a token on anything fancy.
2. Add a passive area clear early. explosive (Explosive · Onager Strike) is the cheapest reliable area-miner — a 3×3 at level 1, 5×5 at level 2, up to 21×21 at level 10.
3. Stack procs in mid-game. Once you hit Prestige 5+, add depth_charge and chain_reaction for vertical and secondary coverage. Pair with vein_miner for connected-ore floods.
4. Cap with Jackhammer. At Prestige 8 / Rank 80, Jackhammer becomes the centerpiece — every other area enchant now fires per layer instead of per block.
5. Add a Nuke for endless mining. Nuke refills the mine on proc, so you never have to walk to a new vein during a marathon session.
6. Do not forget income. The fastest mine-clear in the world earns nothing without Money Enchants on the same pickaxe. Reserve at least half your enchant slots for multipliers.
