Hello I'm looking for some strength and carpentry is just taking a while but I will rank it past 6 soon. My main questions for ranking rare mineralogy are:
1)How do you separate the mobs to one side? I just went earlier today just for the fun of it and got it to rank A in 20-30 minutes because the mobs were split in B3

2)There was a special corner that these 2 people were gathering from. I asked how but they said it was hard and for me to attempt but I never did it. They seemed to be safe from the mobs until they would aggro me since I was on the outside of B3

3)Those golems are annoying any tips on dealing with them?

4)Solo or party

5)How long did it take for master title

Thanks in advance

1) Use pets to lure them to another side.

2) Just keep clicking, and your character will squeeze into the spot.

3) Use pets to get them to other places.

4) Solo, because less disruption, and more minerals for you.

5) Too much work for no reward. Don't bother.

Usually, it is a good idea to wait for some kind of life skill event to make it go faster. It is a very long grind.

Thanks for answering! Also could you explain about luring the mobs away with a pet?

Is that the one near the giant pile in B3? I heard you can get banned for doing something like that.

No, what the fuck? If you lure mobs away from the right corner you can clear a nice safe spot. If you're an elf, it's even easier to lure said mobs away. You can even do it from the left side if you want to take the time.

Gathering strategically from the side â‰ glitched wall bannable offense
