A question about mining speed

Hello everyone, have a question, why my mining speed got reduced to normal, a day ago it was super fast, I have fully closed plethora of Ore, how does it work ?

There is a stat called deftness which affect gathering speed. You get that from some racials and from mining equipment. If you replace your mining pickaxe that has deftness with another that has perception for example, you will notice significant reduction in mining speed.

Also knowledge points can either increase your overall deftness or deftness to a specific type of node. So depending on how you spent knowledge points, you may notice that some type of nodes are faster than other.

Also EZ-Mine nodes are significantly slower if you are not standing on top of the mine. And with knowledge points you can mine from them faster.

Got it, but I didn’t change nothing, all prof gear the same as it was before, just picked one vein, and after this my speed dropped

The your deftness changes from one type of vein to another depending on how you spent your knowledge points. You can open the mining journal and see the type of nodes, and your speed for each node.

Also there is another thing I forgot to mention in my first post, there is a Phial of Enhanced Ambidexterity which increases your deftness. So may be you were using one and that Phial expired? It lasts 30 minutes.

Fixed, just bought new pickaxe with deftness, idk how it worked before, but the problem solved, thanks

One of the buffs from spider land is a gathering speed buff.
