6 golden rules of mining
Troops stop mining after exactly 12 hours. They do not leave the mine automatically, so you must manually recall them to claim rewards.
Do not recall heroes before 6 hours have passed. You will lose 20-30% of your gathered resources.
Match your team to the mine type, such as a Horde team in a Horde mine, for better rewards and stat buffs.
Occupying a mine by plunder or discovery gives a 2-hour shield. During this time you cannot be attacked, but you also cannot recall.
Look for red names from other servers. Avoid attacking players from your own server.
If you are plundered after the shield expires, you still keep Behemoth Stones and speedups, but you can lose earned chests.
How to play Mine Vein Battle
Access the Event
Go to Events > Mine Vein Battle. Click My Mining Point to enter the setup screen.
Set Your Queues
Set your 4 mining queues. These heroes are not locked, so you can still use them for other activities while they mine.
Optimize Lineups
Create mono-faction teams such as full Nature or full Horde to match faction-specific mining zones.
Choose a Zone
Browse the Cross-Server Zone List and enter the zone that matches your strongest team.
Find a Target
Look for Level 4 or 5 mines occupied by red names. Avoid plundering your own server mates.
Plunder & Occupy
Click Plunder to attack. If you win, you steal a portion of their loot and occupy the mine with a fresh 2-hour shield.
Target enemy servers, not your own kingdom
This event is a server-wide effort. Attacking your own server reduces your kingdom's overall growth.
- Target: Enemy servers with red names.
- Avoid: Friendly server players with white or black names.
- Goal: Change servers using the top tab to find weaker servers to plunder.
