stuck at mining pick 48

[DrwHem]

so i cant get iron until i have mining pick 50 so right now i have a bronze mining pick with a handle of tier 2 ribbon wood. i added oberons spell and a tier 2 stamina regen enhancement. what more can i do to get this to 50 so i can mine iron?

[Shedar]

use all T3-4 matherials (brass) then any T2 infusion and 1-2 any enchantments

[DrwHem]

brass and bronze are both the same level and i cant cut T3 wood without a 50 axe so im stuck at T2 wood. I did put a T2 infusion and an enchantment. not sure if i can add another infusion.

[wr*****]

Charm (of mining), Upto 2 enchantments, infusion & augmentations for the table...
Charm, Infusion & Enchantment = 54;
Charm, Infusion & Enchantmentx2 = 62;

make sure all your components including the base resources are the highest tier so instead of crude wood as an example use ribben wood

i have a mystic launcher with each slot crafted with tier 5 components crafted from tier 5 resources

You don't neccessarily need the tier of the wood to be over 3 to achieve a gear score of 50. The Gear score can be artifically increased with enchantments, charms, and infusion, in addition being comprised of the materials on construction, and the level of the tool in the heir-archy (Higher Tier/More Story Progression Required = Higher Base Level)

Also Protip: You can ditch the Mining Pick once you get your CLIMBING picks over 50; they can mine too at the equivelent level of a mining pick. Really there's no reason to waste a hotkey on them.

Also Not all of the materials at the same tier are rated equally ime. There really is an air of experimentation to the system.

For the Hatchet/Picks/Scythe, there is a common confusion, but it's the NUMBER next to the tools icon (e.g. 48) that has to exceed 50. After Applying an Infusion, an Charm, and an Enchantment (spell) to your level 48 hatchet it should boost it's level high enough to preform cutting of that 50 wood allowing progress.

Also note: Higher Tier Tools can fit more than 1 spell (upto 3 infact, at end of upgrades), So if you need to boost a tool that you already have all three on try crafting one that can actually support a second enchantment (spell)

I didn't realize there were Tier 5 resources...where did you get them? I'm aware of Tier 4+ but not 5... (Also aware of Tier 3++ which is even more mysterious)

the new boss rush map you can unlock at the watch

[Anubish66]

the boss rush map is scary though some bosses are badass there so be careful i got smushed by the giant spirit stag boss the spider got me like 4 times that it summons also note that the boss rush map spawns different bosses every time you enter and its infinite run so you can just run bosses all day to get tons of tier 5 resources

[Anubish66]

sadly even with all tier 5 components crafting a mystic launcher rewarded me with a tier 4++ two pluses instead of one though

Higher tiers have better stats and more slots for upgrades so higher lvls
