Mining Enchants on Armour
Season 2 adds a whole line of mining enchants that socket onto your armour — helmet, chestplate, leggings and boots. They sit alongside, and compete for slots with, your combat enchants, so every set is a choice: lean toward fighting, or toward digging. A full mining set turns your armour into a second source of mining power on top of your pickaxe enchants. They're one branch of the wider Enchants system.
How they work
Each enchant's effect sums across all four pieces, up to that enchant's cap. Spreading the same enchant over several pieces stacks it; piling everything onto one slot wastes the cap. You roll them from the Wormhole on gear, and the Godly one — Touch of Plutus — comes from a Mystery Godly Enchant Orb.
Because base mining is slower across the board this season (see Mining), the speed boosts matter again — Hermes' Pace is one of the enchants that genuinely changes how fast you progress.
Every mining enchant on armour
All eleven, with the exact numbers. The stat enchants (Haggler through Apprentice's Vigor) tick steadily and sum across all four pieces up to their cap; the proc enchants (Aftershock, Oracle's Eye, Touch of Plutus) roll a chance on the blocks you mine.
| Enchant | Rarity | Max | Slot | Exactly what it does |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Touch of Plutus | Godly | 5 | Any armour | 0.5% + 0.3%/level chance for a mined block to turn golden — sold for 25x more, paid straight to your balance. |
| Aftershock | Legendary | 5 | Chestplate | 3% + 1%/level chance for a mined block to grant its rewards a second time. |
| Oracle's Eye | Legendary | 3 | Helmet | 1% chance per level for a clue scroll you find to drop as a casket instead. |
| Goldvein | Elite | 5 | Any armour | 6% increased ore sell value per level (up to 30% at L5). |
| Charon's Cut | Elite | 5 | Any armour | 5% reduced extract tax per level (up to 25% at L5). |
| Stoneblood | Elite | 5 | Any armour | 8% more ore respawn rate per level — the ground around you refills faster. |
| Hermes' Pace | Elite | 5 | Any armour | 6% more mining speed per level (up to 30% at L5). |
| Surveyor | Uncommon | 5 | Any armour | 15% increased chance to find clue scrolls per level. |
| Lodestone | Uncommon | 5 | Any armour | 10% more chance to find shards while mining, per level. |
| Haggler | Common | 5 | Any armour | 3% increased ore sell value per level (up to 15% at L5). |
| Apprentice's Vigor | Common | 5 | Any armour | 4% increased mining XP per level (up to 20% at L5). |
Calcite Seeker has been removed along with Calcite Charges — see Calcite Enchants for how calcite works now.
All three proc enchants scale with your increased proc chance — from trims, jewels and pickaxe prestige perks — and with the Lucky on their own armour piece. Aftershock re-rolls on every drop and every proc.
Lucky on armour
Lucky can be socketed onto armour, where it grants 10% increased proc rate per level (up to 40% at Lucky IV) for the enchants on that same piece. On armour that means the piece's mining procs: put Lucky and Aftershock on the same chestplate and the Lucky boosts it; put them on different pieces and it does nothing for it.
Lucky IV comes from an Exceptional Enchant Orb only.
Mining or combat?
Your armour can't do both at once. Mining enchants share slots with combat enchants, so a digging set trades away defensive and offensive power, and vice versa. Keep a spare set if you want to swap between grinding and fighting — see Gear & Armour for how sets and slots work.
