Mining

Mining is a gathering skill in New World used to gather ore, stone, oil, gems, motes, and some craft mods. It requires an equipped pickaxe.

Rare resources
Rare resources, like Raw Gemstones and craft mods have a chance of being obtained while mining, depending on the player's Mining Luck.

Mining equipment
Mining utilizes the pickaxe tool. There are 5 tiers of pickaxes, with each tier increasing the mining speed.

In practice, players can achieve gear scores which are not in the above range, since these are the crafting values for equal quality crafting. As an example, take the "Starmetal Mining Pickaxe". If the pickaxe is crafted at Engineering level 100 with secondary materials T2, it can lower the minimal gear score range by 20. This reduces the gathering speed slightly, but also enables players to use the pickaxe at lower levels (still at least 37).

Mining buffs
A variety of items can be used to provide mining related buffs.

Attributes
Mining bonuses can be obtained with points in the strength attribute.

Mining perks
There are several craft mods that can be applied to equipment to provide bonuses to mining. The bonuses below are at base level and scale with the gear score.

Mining food
Food can provide a buff to luck when mining. The amount and duration increases with each tier.

Mining potions
Potions can provide a buff to the amount of resources gathered when mining. The amount and duration increases with each tier.

Mining trophies
Mining trophies can be placed in a player's house and will grant bonuses while mining. The previous trophy is needed to craft the next tier.
