This site has the location of all the Erg Pots and Ores, but I'm too lazy to find out which one is the best for mining.

Sorry for the long post. Made a couple of videos to show where those spots where that Ruquion posted.

Sorry if the videos look like crap, but those pics were confusing for me at first and when I figured where the spots where I decided I could add a video. I'll probably do the other maps Sunday or Monday depending on how I feel D:

Going to try the White Tyrant one.... Lets see if I lose tokens or not lol
*EDIT, it works perfectly!
Some aiming tips would be nice though. I wasted my fair share and noted to aim a bit below some rocks and try to aim at a wall for other rocks.

I always stand back and aim at the ground a few feet away from the rocks. Never misses once you get it right.

It should be noted that at level 41 you can mine ore in Hidden it's only a single ore node on the left side here is a screen shot.

I will do a video showing a quick run of it later.

Hidden is pretty fast, but it only has one node with 4 ores. So, not all that efficient I think. BP takes about 30 seconds more and has 2 nodes with a lot more ore.
It was strange though... When I tried Hidden I first mined 1 ore (so it said) and yet I got no drop. Then, the second mine said the same and then I got 4 drops. Bizarre.

It happens to me with a lot of mining spots. This happens when you throw a bomb and it explodes JUST outside of the range of the mining point. The game registers it as you mining the point, but the point was not hit, so it doesn't give you ore. You can kinda exploit this bug to get the mining titles if you so wish >_>

Makes me think you didn't read my entire post or perhaps I'm thinking poorly but the point of me even bringing up hidden is some people find it easier and faster then blood prince I myself also prefer blood prince but here is a video of my quick run, hooray iron ores!

Sorry about the bad quality on the video.

If you really think about it though, Hidden isn't faster than BP only because of the fact that the SINGLE node only has a chance of giving 2 to 3, maybe 4, ores. Sure it takes longer to do Blood Prince, but if you look at the number of ores you gain per run, it amounts to a lot more. This is also coupled with the fact that you have to view the boat leaving scene multiple times for Hidden in order to gain the same amount of ores as Blood Prince. So in the end, Hidden isn't exactly that much faster than Blood Prince.

Ya, when I was getting gold ore for my Evie I mixed it up between Blood Prince and Hidden when one got too boring on me. Odd thing is I ran blood Prince like 30 times and got 1 gold ore and then I went to try hidden and first bomb I throw gets me a gold ore :lol: Unfortunately, luck wasn't with me from that point on and after 5 hours of spam mining I finally gathered the gold ores I needed for the Rose Drop set.

Thank you for the guide, it was really helpful. I was spamming White Tyrant until I saw that BP was better, I never would have guessed.

I think it might be possible to use Nightmare in the Ruins as a farm source if one is an Evie and is really fast at running and bombing.
Summon a golem as a tank have the spiders break enough to allow control of it, then tell the golem to stay to tank and run and bomb.
Of course it is hard to survive long enough to pick everything, but it's still 3 nodes and hopefully a rarer ore shows.
Edit:
Just attempted a quick run a counterclockwise rotation seems to work well. The golem appears to stand up when it hits the 2 o'clock position tell it to stay or attack and it stalls the spiders long enough to pick up every ore.

Ehhh, it seems like a waste of a golem kit (1k! ;~; each! I'm cheap) and it's still not as fast as BP. However, golds might drop there more? I know we saw around 2 or 3 in one day in one of our groups.

Yeah I would say it's bad since the first room is a real pain to clear solo and then you have to dodge two very vicious spiders and waste 1k gold every time on a kit.

The mini spiders drop red shells and white striped webs, which alone cover the costs of golem kits. Also I'm farming Bossy title which needs me to summon 500 times anyway.
