Im wondering if its even working? 21
If it will work, anyone know how it will work?
ie. +14 means that i will get 14 turns for mining?
I have 38 active and when i mine im loosing turns as usual 16

Sorry if it was posted but i cant find it, search function doesnt seem to work well.

i believe it does 1 of two things.

1. gives you more material per turn by the said amount
2. takes away some required turns for mining (down to a minimum of 1 turn). so if you have an item for +15, and you spend 30 turns, you only lose 15 turns.

these are just my theories. I've never mind with a mining time item on, so I don't know.

And remember, items do not stack, so 38 active items in mining means you have effects for 38 different mining attempts, not 38 for 1 mining attempt.

OK this is easy.  each item is mined in batches of 250.  it says how many turns it takes to mine a batch under each item. So if you have an item that is for +15 turn and you mine 250 diamonds at 17 turns you only use 2 turns.  or you can mine 4000 carbon for 1 turn. see easy

Now i see, too bad they are not stacking. I was simply mining to much to see effect. Now i have to mine a lot of 250 chunks of diamonds to use those 1-10 turn items 13

Mining is usefull when you dont have time and turns are maxed. Also when some commander skill is very high, mining might be cheaper than tons of cp. 21

true, but I'm far from either of those points (all I have is time, and I'm lvl 50, lol, I have plenty of room left to grow my commander skills). But thanks for that little tip, I'll keep it in mind should that time come.
