[+++] Changing the leveling requirements/unit of miner

[Isdej]

While testing miner I noticed that the progress was really slow. In an hour it was possible to get around 18k in progress. With the 2.5m requirement for L10 it would take around 140 hours to get there, which is incredibly long. I am proposing to change that. Here are two possible solutions:

1. Simply reducing the requirements, you could make the requirements for L10 something like 1m. Making it take 56 hours. L10 taking around 50 hours is pretty fair. These would be the full requirements:

L1: 7.500 grams
L2: 15.000 grams
L3: 25.000 grams
L4: 40.000 grams
L5: 80.000 grams
L6: 150.000 grams
L7: 250.000 grams
L8: 400.000 grams
L9: 650.000 grams
L10: 1.000.000 grams

Requirements might have to be changed further in the future, if the iron price continues to grow.

2. Changing the progression unit from grams to earnings. The iron you earn is based on the average market price, so the grams that you earn go down when the market price gets higher, which it has been doing forever. Changing it to earnings would take into account the price of iron. Though this isn't guaranteed to fix it and would require more testing later, because other factors might have had an influence too.

Both options are fine with me, option 1 is the quicker and easier fix, while option 2 might be better in the long term.

I'm usually against lowering leveling requirements because it's a kick in the nuts to those that have made the hussle to get L10. But in this case with the recent nerfs to the job and absolutely dramatic increase in Iron prices, leveling up Iron Miner is simply the hardest job right now. I'd say Option 1 is the easiest and most reliable way to fix this because I sincerely doubt Iron prices will go down and if so making it even easier to level up. A  from me.

[Katmer]

Great idea but the level is difficult so it makes sense to have 1m gram 10 level because it would be good to increase the iron material a little bit, the mechanic will gain 500 iron and the miner will reduce the number of workers. Enough to gain 1000 iron in 2 minutes. There is trouble to increase the number of miner workers.

result: positive

Didnt realize it was that hard to get L10, this will obviously make the job easier and more played.

, current iron miner progress is incredibly slow

I like option 1, it is quite reasonable, I've been trying to get L10 for quite some time but I can never make it, option 2 is waay go complicated and complex to be implemented so option 1 seems most reasonable and better, I wanna level up and this should help me since 350k iron isn't very hard to earn if you work consistently. I am L9 currently, so I agree that this should be implemented and make it easier for new players. Positive

after the new update in the miner requirements and leveling system the job became very hard to reach L10 I think this idea would be great to fix that problem and make it easier a little bit, I'm going Positive.

[WakaMan]

I agree that Iron Miner is probably one of the most difficult jobs to upload currently, after the large number of changes that the job underwent, it has become quite difficult to reach level 10. In my opinion, I think that of the two options you propose number 1 is the best, number 2 could be analyzed and improved in the future, but I find it difficult to solve the current situation in the short term. I'm voting positive.

Well I'm currently really suffering from this problem the current progress of miner is pretty low which makes it really hard to farm iron like it was used long ago I have been stuck on L9 for god knows how much time so that's would be very good due to the current system of miner

I'm currently L9 and since miner is nerfed im not getting 1m more units, I believe after the nerf 2m is too much.

It became very difficult to level up the miner job level after the pms update. 

[Taeko.]

I mean, reaching L10 in miner before the recent changes was kinda hard too, but now its really difficult, especially for players who are really low in progress. I think a change in the job progression system is necessary after the recent updates regarding the job.
