Adjusting Mining payout at DOC

[Sukun]

With the introduction of Laundry and litter cleaning, Stamps have been relatively easy to get. But mining was entirely forgotten since it only pays out nearly 10 stamps per ore and it takes longer to sell. 

Also, There are supposed to be multiple types of ores available for an individual to mine with different stamp payouts. But for some reason only Tin ore has been spawning in while no other ore has been in sight.

1 laundry or litter gives out about 150 stamps and each have 2 Quick-time Events each. While mining has 5 Quick-time events and give out only 10 stamps per ore.

 

DOC needs some love so that people can still be active while in prison and not just standing still waiting for their time or for laundries and litters to spawn. and this suggestion is just one of many that may be posted on the forums.

Stamps have already been heavily nerfed with the 1 stamp = $1.5 conversion rate.

Right now, mining feels completely unbalanced. It takes around 30-45 seconds per ore with 5 skill checks, yet it only gives 10 stamps ($15). Meanwhile, laundry and litter give 150 stamps ($225) with just two skill checks each.

I’m not saying mining should match laundry or litter in payouts, especially since ores are more abundant, but it should at least be a viable alternative. Given the time investment and high carry weight, mining just isn’t worth doing in its current state. It definitely needs a buff to be on a more level playing field.

Mining has always felt like an activity someone probably put alot of effort into and had big ideas to run with it, but they got to implementation and then never came back to it. Look at that UI, clearly there was more to this initially. needs a look at...
