Top 10 hardest blocks to mine in Vanilla?
Of course, with fully upgraded M.M.

There's anyway that I can know how hard is to mine a block? A number or something like that?
A value that I can see in some site? It would help me to build some stuffs to don't be destroyed neither for accident nor Meteors.

The only vanilla blocks that can't be destroyed by meteors are brain blocks and dead core blocks. Both take a few minutes to mine (literally), and dead core blocks are actually destroyed when mined in vanilla as they do not have an item form.

I search around Google and people are saying about Blastone, Dire Stone and Magma Stone... But another player told us he did look at the Asset file and check the Platinum Block has a little more Health.

How about Craftable ones? Which Craftable Blocks are hardest?
Deadcore and brain.

Platinum Blocks cannot be crafted, and and have a health of 16 which is weaker than Pressurized blocks, the strongest craftable. And Pressurized blocks only have a health of 20, which get blown away by meteors like any other. Dire stone is also 20. Blast stone and Magma rock both have a health of 24, only marginally higher than Pressurized, and still destroyed by meteors.

For reference, meteor explosions do 140 damage before armor.

Brains and dead core have always been the only vanilla block types with enough health to survive meteor strikes.

Can I mine Brain with the Tier 0 Power Generator M.M.?
I saw the best M.M. [5x5 300%] takes around 2 min and 30 sec.
It's possible to mine with the 2x2 "0"%?

A fully upgraded vanilla matter manipulator takes ~2m30s, as you said. Any lower power, and you'll be sitting there a long time.

Thanks dudes...

I will make my Liquid Machine with Hull Panel and the base I will hold until I got all Manipulator Upgrade to mine Brains.
