Mining
Mining gathers ores and smelts metal bars used by crafting professions in Forever.[1]
Getting started
The guide lists trainers and an early reward item, Mining for Dummies, for learning Apprentice Mining. It advises carrying a Mining Pick, activating Find Minerals and using a forge for ordinary smelting.[1] These are written instructions, not a wiki-tested leveling route.
Sourced campsite crafts
| Craft | Learning evidence | Finished-item placement skill |
|---|---|---|
| Lodestone | Trainer listed in the written Forever Mining guide | 20 |
| Rock Garden | Rock Garden blueprint | 140 |
Rock Garden has a sourced learning item, exact recipe inputs and documented output, but its spawn interval and gathering yield remain unverified.
Materials and later progression
The guide discusses new Pyrite, Bauxite and Pitchblende gathering materials and later bars including Heavy Thorium, Legionite and Azerothium. It leaves their complete distribution and gathering probabilities unresolved.[1] Later recipes in a source are not proof of current beta obtainability.
