Guide/Dowsing

Template:Languages

General

First, you need to assemble a Dowsing Rod.

• It is used to locate veins of metal Ore.
• When carrying one, a Dowsing Icon will allow the checking of the coordinate you are on.
• Dowsing starts a Focus timer.

Tips n Tricks

• Sometimes the absence of an ore is as important as its presence. If you find a gap in a vein of ore, it's quite probable that you have an intersection of rare ore!
• Focus helps you dowse more often
• Constitution helps you detect a larger area

COPIED FROM T7, PLEASE UPDATE AS DISCOVERED

Perception Required

a dash (-) next to a number means that number or possibly lower, and needs to be updated as discovered

Ore Shapes

• Copper - Curved not always capped with another ore, but frequently is.
• Iron - Straight diagonal line, 2 coords wide.
• Lead - Blob with a ring of Zinc surrounding it
• Platinum - Intersection of Aluminium and Iron, forms a small 10 co-ord wide blob (found one blob that's 20'ish across -Tut)
• Strontium - 4 Point Diamond 50-55 co-ordinates NSEW
  • Not all points are always present
  • I now think its an offset grid, not a diamond
• Zinc - Ring around a central lead blob (T8- 1 sample @65 coord radius from lead)
