Mining is a skill that rewards breaking stone and ore blocks with a pickaxe. It increases bonus drops from mining and is unique in having two Super Abilities — Super Breaker for mining and Blast Mining for TNT.
Experience is earned by breaking blocks with a pickaxe. The full list is configurable per server, but by default it covers all ore blocks (including Deepslate variants), stone-type blocks, and various Nether blocks.
| Category | Examples |
|---|---|
| Overworld ores | Coal, Iron, Gold, Diamond, Emerald, Redstone, Lapis, Copper ore |
| Deepslate ores | Deepslate variants of all overworld ores |
| Stone variants | Stone, Cobblestone, Deepslate, Cobbled Deepslate, Andesite, Diorite, Granite, Sandstone |
| Nether | Netherrack, Ancient Debris, Nether Gold Ore, Nether Quartz Ore, Basalt, Blackstone, Nether Bricks |
| End | End Stone |
| Other | Obsidian, Glowstone, Amethyst clusters and buds, Tuff, Calcite |
Ranks: 1
Unlocks at level 1.
A passive chance to receive one extra drop whenever you break a compatible block. The chance scales linearly from 0% at level 0 to 100% at level 1000.
| Level | Double Drop Chance |
|---|---|
| 100 | 10% |
| 250 | 25% |
| 500 | 50% |
| 750 | 75% |
| 1000 | 100% |

Unlocks at level 1000.
When Double Drops triggers, Mother Lode can fire a second bonus drop roll on top of it — effectively tripling yields. Mother Lode only rolls after Double Drops succeeds, so both sub-skills must fire for a triple drop to occur.
The chance scales from 0% at level 1000 to 50% at level 10000.
| Level | Mother Lode Chance |
|---|---|
| 1000 | 0% |
| 3250 | 12.5% |
| 5500 | 25% |
| 7750 | 37.5% |
| 10000 | 50% |

Unlocks at level 50.
An active ability. Right-click to ready your pickaxe, then break any compatible block within ~4 seconds to activate Super Breaker. While active, a temporary Efficiency enchant buff is applied to your pickaxe, dramatically increasing mining speed. Triple Drops are also enabled — if Double Drops triggers while Super Breaker is active, the drop becomes a triple instead of a double. Duration scales with your Mining level.
Triple Drops via Super Breaker can be disabled:

Unlocks at level 100.
Right-click TNT with a Flint and Steel to remotely detonate it. Each rank improves ore yield, reduces debris drops, reduces self-damage from the explosion, multiplies dropped items, and expands the blast radius.
