Just a quick tip; the figure on the bottom right will represent the figure you will earn every second. Ultimately, if you want to maximise your income, cycle through all the ores and try to find which one provides the highest figure. That one will ultimately be the most efficient for money whilst idling. Hopefully helps someone.

Finally the Hellstone... I;d like to thank everybody that supported me on this journey. First of all my lovely energydrinks and weed that kept me alive while doing so... and thats about it, i guess.
I'll be going to the hospital now.. to see if they can still save my righthand from being amputated. 5/5 for keeping me busy

Gems are pure rock broken, so to maximize gems, mine the strongest rock you can break in one hit. Anything less is wasting free money. Anything more is trading more money for fewer gems.

I logged into kongregate and loaded up idle mine only to find that my game had been reset. Any pointers on what to do anyone?

Guys Why not try to make your pickaxe 3 times powerful than the thing your mining with? The money rate is faster than clicking your hand like your pickaxe having 1 power breaking down 100.

@itsme0 Each stone has a defence rating, which is subtracted from your damage/sec rating. If the defence score is higher than your damage/sec you wont do any damage while idle mining, so you'll earn nothing.
In essence, it's the $ value of the ore x the speed at which you destroy the ore. E.g. if an ore says $1qt and it takes you 1sec to destroy it, you'll earn $1qt/sec. This factors in idle mining only (clicking does extra damage, hence the ore takes less time to destroy and you earn more than the $/sec value. The auto $/sec value factors in the damage your pick does - the defence rating of the ore, works out how long it takes to destroy the ore at your current damage/sec rating and gives you a $/sec rating based on this).

the calculations of hellstone seem weird to me. on lvl 14 hellstone I auto 2 quad a second, while on the next level I auto nothing at all. Can someone please explain how speed at which you break the rocks is determined?

if you need to farm gems do next: go to that rock that you and ingame autoclicker destroys in 1 shot. and start farming.

My only complaint is the hellstone. Not for the fact that it keeps going and going, but because you could have come up with so many other things to mine instead. It's not very creative.

Getting gems is judged on how many times you destroy an ore so when you get really high leveled and need some more Gems all you have to do is go to the poo ore and you can destroy it hundreds or thousands of times per click giving you a lot of gems fast +1 if this helped

The best way to farm is not to do 1shot kills. Farm on rocks that 3-4 seconds. If you do the simple math you will earn more in the long run because of the higher payout.

also, i've noticed that to get gems, i went to the highest level on that can be mined in one auto hit and left it on as i slept. i wake up to hundreds of gems and quadrillions of dollars (i'm on hs 8-9) still can't afford much.

After hours of unproductive switching between YouTube and this game, I finally have gotten to mining paper ;3 My mom will be proud

". . . the Hellstone is calculated with a mathematical formula to keep going , Lv.2237 is the maximum level you can peacefully mine . . ." I thought this was a joke. Now I'm not so sure. Anyone else find a reasonable end to this madness?
