I noticed that there aren't any Mining-Only threads here.

But anyways, I wasn't able to get past level 10.

Then one time I saw a bunch of miners, like ten of them or so, when I entered the mine. They were all digging and stuff.

After that I was able to go up to level 25.

Now I can't get past that anymore.

So I was wondering, does that "bunch of miners" event (well...it wasn't exactly a event, people were just there) HAVE to happen for me to be able to access more levels? Oh, and can anyone post the list of what's found at what level?

Thanks! =)

The contents of the mine are probably not very different from Island, which you can read about on my guide scans thread here: http://www.fogu.com/hmforum/viewtopic.p ... 0&start=15

Speaking of mining, is it different at all from IOH?

Yes and no. The floors still have staircase + holes + un-diggable border, but now there are red lava rocks among the regular ore rocks. They can get in the way of the ore at times, but you can sprinkle your watering can on the lava to cool it off.

The furthest I've gone down is to floor 12 or so by looking for the staircase and save/reloading. Floors 1 through 10 have specific gems in the rocks (floor 1 is all Amethyst, floor 2 is all Agate, etc.) and after 10 they are all randomly in the rocks.
