Mining, Human or Elf?

(1/5) > >>

OMGBurgers:
I thought I remember there being a difference between the two.  Does anyone know what it is?

Khameleon:
I didn't think there was a difference.

Cerveza:
Elves supposed to find more gems.

OMGBurgers:
i heard it had to do with getting more colored ore then regular, but you mine the veins out faster.  but i'm not sure what is true and what isn't lol.

12TimesOver:
Elves are supposed to have a higher percent chance of pulling a special resource from a resource square (ie gems or colored resources). For lumberjacking this means that you get 10 logs per swing where a human gets 12. I don't know what specifically happens to yield on the ore, I don't think you get fewer hits in a resource square though although it's hard to tell with mining since the number of hits per square is random every time the square refreshes.

In the meantime a human can be out a little longer because it can carry more. I always use Elves but, to be honest, I've never done any valuable testing.
