Mining/Farming

[Spiffy Has]

The Mining/Farming skills have uses now, however, the rewards they grant for lairs are completely out of whack.

The DC for mushrooms do not change, regardless of what type you mushroom up (and they give different amount of 'points' for lairs as well).

The DC for Ores are MUCH higher, and are more difficult to 'mine' than mushrooms are to 'farm'- but they give the /same number of points as the mushrooms do/. So, if I was looking for a good way to build my lair, I'd focus on mushrooms.

I would recommend either increasing the ore lair points, or decreasing mushroom lair pointage.

I noticed that ores sometimes gave you multiple ore items, whereas mushrooms always gave you one. That seemed rather worth the higher difficulty.

Furthermore, mining has other tangible benefits...

Mushrooms sometimes give multiple ones.  It's just up to chance.  Ore should be worth more than mushrooms, always, due to the difficulty of gathering it.
