Fault Line is a Calcite enchant that goes on a pickaxe, up to level 5. It is tagged Mining.

What it does

Calcite upgrade of Fracture. Pickaxe only. Replaces Fracture entirely: nearby ores no longer soak up partial mining progress. Instead every block you break has a 28% chance (+3%/level, 40% at L5) to tear a fault through the seam, instantly breaking 5 nearby ores. They count as blocks you mined, with full drops, experience and energy. This chance is fixed. Nothing raises or lowers it: not Lucky, not trims, not perks. Needs Fracture VI.

Notes

  • Its chance is fixed. Lucky, Cavern Luck, trims, jewels and prestige perks never move it, the only enchant in the game with that rule.
  • Ores it tears out count as blocks you mined, with full drops, XP and energy.
  • The in-game tooltip currently understates the requirement — it reads as the base enchant's normal cap, but the Calcite Wormhole checks for Fracture VI, the Exceptional level. The number on this page is the one the game enforces.
