mining is way more profitable....... i get ~4000 tria an hour mining platinum, 2000 an hour gold.  Plus gold ore dosnt attack you, like rats do, and nobody will steal your gold ore when you\'ve got it 90% out of the ground :P.
Plus, mining is a repatitve action so you can use..... helpers, if you know what i mean.

No MB characters, so have to start from scratch.

Rats impossible to kill barehanded, that does not sound good at all!

Killing rats as a noob is not all that hard.  I have only died once (and I have made the char as a magic user so low str and end) and use my barehands only.....

I find that I need to adjust my attack style to accomodate how I am doing - sometimes go to attack 5 to regain some health then back to 4 or 3.  I also find that some rate are harder thanothers - if I am not hitting the rat I hit the bolt and find an easier one.

How many times one must die to get enough rats killed (how many) to beable to get 100t to buy a pickaxe.

Well lets assume that you manage ti kill every tenth rat.
You need 15 rats to get hundred trias.

Well if i am right you will have to die 135 times.

But well there is a very simple way of killing each rat and maybe even a gobble, if you team up.

Thats good. You are really impressing me, well with age comes patience I pressume.
I want to be a flame, to crumble to ash, but never ever burnt.

I want to rise higher, rise up to the heavens, but sink, just sink down deeper and deeper into nothing,

I want to be an angel, a chosen, a devil, but I am just a creature that ever wants what it wont get.

Why wouldn\'t the game creators add some more way to gain progression points then!? Even if you have gotten a 100 trias for a pick, mining does still not make you level up! What is needed is a n00b-quest where you can get a pick without paying any money, and mabye one skill in mining...
Adding more items is a great way to make the game last longer! :)
