Dinkum
vines
Hello, can someone tell me where to find fines. It says online to find them in the deep mines, I've gone to the mines several times but there are no vines. I also have been unable to find marble. Am I missing something?

You need to go into the undergrowth mine, the second level.

You get there by smashing a ruby into shards. Each ruby (from the first mine level) gets you three shards. You need to place four in the console next to there regular mine console to go into the undergrowth, the second mine level where it's plant based. There vines are everywhere and marble is noted by small white spots on dirt.

You need to be seriously prepared for the undergrowth as it's a much more difficult mine level than the first mine.

Yeahh just collect four rubies and head into the next mine level. It is intense. I wouldn't recommend going down there without copper spear (minimum) and iron pickaxe. Also, make sure to have meat on you especially food that re-energizes you.

I wouldn't recommend going down there without an alpha hammer, two battle shovels, hang glider, and a chainsaw. Also, even the best fighters in Dinkum can get overwhelmed when 3 or 4 poison frillies come at them at the same time.

Cooked croc meat, sausage rolls, and if you have it, prime roast, along with big fried eggs for food.

The undergrowth mine can get real intense real fast with four way fights between the plant chompers, grubs, frillies, and players.

Collect 4 "ruby shards" not 4 rubies. A ruby can be hacked up to get shards which are then inserted in the new machine in the elevator which sets the level down to the Undergrowth.

As above, a pick is not much good by itself in the "Petrified Forest" so an axe and a pick are both needed. The best weapons you have and the best foods. Be prepared to get masacred the 1st trip so dont take any dinks and you wont lose anything.

I started a new town, so no where near ready to go down there yet, but I do have to ask. Why a hang glider?

oh the joys of a hang glider, you can easily fly over rivers and distances, i rejoiced because i found the plant glider in the deeper mines yesterday. they are very handy to have :)

Easier to fly over the big rivers and the only way to not get mauled when 3+ poison frillies pack hunt you. Those things are relentless and keep chasing you unlike the enemies in the original mine. They're also incredibly fast. Also you can't eat to heal when you get hit by them as they temporarily poison you.

So being pack hunted by poison inducing super fast hostiles, with little room to maneuver, who stop you from healing doesn't give you many options but to take to the air. Plus, it's faster to get out of the mines when midnight approaches.

I fought 4 crocs at the same time, two alpha roos at the same time (they work together, I thought they'd fight lol) without issues, but these poison frillies in packs are on a whole different level of intense. The glider gives you way more manuverability in combat.

You definitely won't run into a pack of poison frillies every mine run, but when you do, you're going to be cursing not having a glider. You can't stun and kill all of them before the stun wears off and you probably won't pass out after defeating them if you're good at combat, but you're going to be in bad shape after that encounter. The big streamers showing the beta were all getting mauled when the number of frillies exceeded two at a time.
