Ok. So I've recently been using an Eff7 a lot, but I only make around 15k/hr with it. I've heard rumors that most people make our 25k and the most is around 40k. There is some thread out there that someone told me about that I cannot seem to find that says how to make money with it. If you could all help me personally, that'd be great. Basically, I mine out at y:ll, meaning I'm standing at that level. I mine everything I see, then after an hour of mining and chatting with my friends (heard that takes away from your profit), I fortune it all to make 15k. If you all could please leave me suggestions on how to make money on it, that'd be very much appreciated.
It could be you got a faulty pick. Let me use it and try it out. I'll let you know if the pick is good or not.* *This is a joke.
First of all, donation features take a big roll in mining. You need fly and EXTCommands+ to optimize your $/h. You want to /speed 10 and mine a 1X2 hole as long as possibly can waste time on you also want to have Macros running for /sell stone /sell gravel and any other not so profitable things like gravel. You should also use macros for /repair all every 30S or so. That would help a lot, really! When your at /speed 10 and mining a 1X2 hole you don't want to stop for nothing! Ores, even diamonds, mineshafts, anything! That's when Pyro+ Comes in handy, so when you run into lava, you ignore it and keep moving on! (My case) After you mine for 1X2 hole for an hour, you can go down at /speed 10 and go collect ores and dig into caves. That's always the most fun thing to do anyways! Once you've collected all of your ores you want to go to your town/house and place all of the ores and mine them all up with Fortune 3! Then, you should sell everything to the server, besides gold, diamonds and emeralds. Those three I usually sell to spawnshops in the market where I get usually a bit more money than I do get from the server. When your smelting the other ores that you will be selling to the server you want to put them all in a Cooking pot, you can get one by asking a user with ExtCommands+ to place it down for you. It will smelt the others very quickly for you, and since using a furnace doesn't give you EXP anymore, you might as well use the cooking pot because it is quicker! Hope I helped and best of luck!
Thank you very much! Also another question, If you don't have those donation features (I only have Tp, water, and multihome), what is the best way to mine? I just make a 2x2 hole that extends on forever. Then I go home and fortune and sell to whoever.
The way my friends have shown me that works best with your features is to mine out a giant room 2 high at y 11
Ok, what I do is go to y9 and hold my swing axe button and move in a diagonal line, after about 20 rows that are 10 long, I mine the top, this is actually a very profitable way to mine, ereps would help but I am always willing to do them for free so that isn't too important, fly/+ would be a huge help and so would /feed, /back, and pyro/+
