			== How a rock works ==
			Each swing gives 1 of whatever the rock holds, and the XP lands on the swing that breaks it. How many swings depends on the rock's footprint:

			Partial work is remembered, so you can leave a half-mined rock and come back to it. A mined-out rock reappears '''30-60 seconds''' later; if somebody is standing on the tile the respawn waits for them to move off (up to five minutes past its due time).

			Forged pickaxes (copper, iron and silver) have '''4,000''' total durability and spend '''1 durability per mining swing''', whatever the rock's size. Swinging a pickaxe at a tree costs no durability. The free starter [[Pickaxe]] never wears. A pickaxe that reaches 0 durability is destroyed, so repair it first — [[Grimjaw]] in [[Frostmere]] and [[Harun the Forgewright\|Harun]] in [[Dunes West]] charge up to 60% of the forge bill, scaled to how much durability is missing.
