Is it worth mining anymore?

I've got 5 miners in the AC silver mine and they rarely ever get PK'd and since the 4331 patch broke COtobo and TQ changed the gem frequency in mines, I've only got 3 gems in about 3-4 weeks time, previously I would have gotten 30-50 gems in about 7-10 days.

Even if COtobo comes back, I don't think its worth mining anymore, what's everyone else experience with mining since the 4331 patch?

I think this is TQ's way of taking mining out of the game and thus fewer AFK players running will allow more non-AFK players on the sever before they need to split the server. Its all about the money.

well it'd be nice if the revamped cotobo allows you to drop normal gems :)


also... i think your view about them phasing out mining for more players playign in intriguing... two birds with one stone? stop botters and get rid of afk players?

The only thing good about the mining is it's giving me about a mill a day to pay off my debt O.O
