Gem Mining is one of the skill you can do in the game. It is one of the material gathering skills.
It is also the fastest way to get ambers compared to hunting with the exception of red amber (which is acquired from hunting only).
To do gem mining, go to forest coordinate 215,107
- Click the NPC to teach gem mining.
- You will get a beginner legend mark for gem mining.
- Buy a wooden net.
- Enter the cave behind him.
Skill Mode
There are two methods how to do this; MANUAL or AUTOMATIC.

The MANUAL requires you to hunt as if you are a warrior/rogue as shown in the picture above.
Chasing the monkey and hit it with space bar with the wooden net equipped as weapon.
This method, although exhausting, rewards you with more exp and faster to level up.
There are two types of monkey for manual method;
- Thief Monkey (die in 3 hits)
- Big Monkey (die in 5 hits, but gives you a little bit more exp)

The second method is slower, the AUTOMATIC one. The advantage of this method is you can leave your char (AFK). What you only need to do, before you enter, buy at least one sticky paper.
Go up in cave. There will be 4 small fixed monkey in the cave (three is visible in the picture above).
If there is no empty place, this where the sticky paper becomes handy. use the sticky paper by standing next to player/players and facing them. You will approach him/her/them.
Then face the monkey in the middle and press space bar. You will enter the automatic mode automatically.
Your automatic mode will last depends on your tools. A full 100% tool with 1800 durability will gives you 1850 seconds of automatic work.
Keep in mind that you need to switch between tools manually after the last one is broken. You can go AFK for eating or watching TV or doing something else with this method.
A single slot inventory can hold 10.000 ambers per type.
The Level
Beginner --> Specialization = 1.000 points
Specialization --> Trained = 2.500 points
Trained --> Great = 5.000 points
Great --> Talented = 7.500 points
Talented --> Skilled = 20.000 points
Skilled --> Professional = 45.000 points
Professional --> Expert = 70.000 points
Expert --> Master = 90.000 points
The exp you gain is also depends on the item you get while mining, example more exp if you get yellow amber than amber.
The items you received, although random, will improves as your skill level progress. So a master level will definitely get more yellow amber than a beginner level given the same time.
Everytime you level up, the working exp resets back to 0.
The Materials
The Materials you may get from gem mining are:
- Amber
- Dark Amber
- White Amber
- Yellow Amber
You can sell those materials directly to NPC (low profit but short time) in Kaming's Jewelry Collector (040,021) to NPC Jewelry Collector.
Or use them as your gem cutting materials to make different types of ambers and sell them to NPC Amber too (high profit but longer time).
You can always sell the materials or the product to any buying player above the NPC price.
Maximized your profit by:
- Making "slave/s" char, since gem mining is not limited by any level and class. All newly born peasant can do gem mining.
- Multi windows/client (you can open multiple game windows with one computer)
- Use auto-keyboard program / macro (Open the link, PLEASE READ CAREFULLY)
