## Mining on Souls of Elysium <a href="#mining_on_souls_of_elysium" id="mining_on_souls_of_elysium"></a>

**Souls of Elysium** provides a new and interactive mining system allowing players to interact with ore nodes in the world, and craft powerful items!

### Mining Pick <a href="#mining_pick" id="mining_pick"></a>

* Obtained from any tool shop for 1500 gold pieces, or by completing [Gilion's Quest](mining/gilions-quests) on top of a mountain in Kazordoon (farms area).
* You can take the Magic Carpet from Darashia to get dropped extremely close.
* Simply right click the pickaxe, and left click the first copper ore you come across to use it.
* _Note: Once you've completed Gilion's Quest, you'll be able to directly right click on the ores to mine them._

### Where do I mine? <a href="#where_do_i_mine" id="where_do_i_mine"></a>

* Ore rocks are most commonly found out in the world.
* The higher tier the ore, the more dangerous a place it may be hiding.
* Copper ore can be found in plenty of areas accessible to New Players.
* Minotaur Tower
* Tombs in darashia/ankrahmun desert
* Femur Hills
* Many other places!

* In addition to the veins you can find out in the world, there are infinite ore mines.
* Progression in the mining skill is slower, but the nodes can be mined infinitely.
