Mining Speed

is one of the player statistics. It is a measure of the block-breaking time.

Mechanics
Any item that increases mining speed by a base value (such as ) can be thought of as a decrease of the base breaking time.

does not affect private islands, The Farming Islands, The Park and dungeons. These places use the vanilla mining speed.

There is no known cap for.

Increasing Mining Speed
Players can increase their from the following methods


 * Holding a Pickaxe or Drill, which grants base Mining Speed
 * Using the Efficiency Enchantment, granting up to Mining Speed (or  on a Stonk and up to  Mining speed by upgrading the efficiency level of a pickaxe using Silex)
 * Using a Mining Speed increasing Reforge, such as Fleet
 * Wearing Mining Gear that has Mining Speed status
 * Upgrading the Level 1 Perk "Mining Speed" in the Heart of the Mountain, granting Mining Speed per Level
 * By having the Titanium Talisman (or its upgraded variants) granting mining speed as talisman,  as ring,  as artifact and  as relic.
 * Certain pets such as the Mithril Golem Pet
 * Applying Amber Gemstones to certain items

Mining Fatigue Effect
Players are given the Mining Fatigue Effect while in public islands (not private islands, The Farming Islands, The Park and dungeons) to remove the vanilla mining behavior (client-side mining animations) and let the server handle the animations itself. It does not slow down or remove Mining Speed, but is in fact necessary for the Mining Speed implementation.

It also provides additional aesthetic benefits:


 * No breaking/mining animation (except for the swinging) for blocks that cannot be broken
 * No ghost blocks due to mining blocks
 * No block rollbacks
 * Mining animation synced up with the server's speed (server's TPS)
 * Blocks don't turn into air before getting replaced by bedrock (or another block)

This however didn't change known Bugs with ghost blocks in private islands and dungeons, as there is no Mining Fatigue Effect in these places.

Interactions

 * Ore-specific mining speed increases (see Mithril Golem Pet and Mithril Pickaxe) are not affected by Mining Speed Boost.

Achieving Maximum Mining Speed
By getting all of the following, the highest possible Mining Speed can be achieved. The value achieved is exclusively for the maximum Mining Speed visible in the Skyblock menu's player stats.

Gear:


 * A full set of Divan Armor with the following gives up to +1360 mining speed:
 * The armor set itself gives +320
 * Recombobulated for higher reforge and gemstone stats.
 * Reforged to Jaded (+240 total)
 * Two Perfect Ambers applied to each piece (+800 total)


 * A Divan's Drill with the following gives up to +2750 mining speed:
 * The drill itself gives +1800
 * Efficiency 10, achieved by applying 5 Silex (+210)
 * Reforging it to Heated and mining at y=31 within Crystal Hollows (+240)
 * Applying a Perfect Amber (+100)
 * Drill Engine: Amber-polished Drill Engine (+400)
 * Upgrade Module: Blue Cheese Goblin Omelette (does not directly impact the mining speed but provides other buffs to Heart of the Mountain perks necessary)

Accessories:


 * Recombobulated Artifact of Power with all 7 Perfect Gemstones (+40)
 * Titanium Relic (+60)

Heart of the Mountain perks assuming maxed upgrades and maxed Peak of the Mountain, with the Blue Cheese Goblin Omelette active:


 * Mining Speed I (+1020)
 * Mining Speed II (+2040)
 * Crystalized (+206)
 * Mining Madness (+50)
 * Front Loaded (+100)
 * Precision Mining (+30% mining speed)
 * Mining Speed Boost pickaxe ability (+400% mining speed)
 * Sky Mall with the +100 Mining Speed perk active on certain days (+100)

Other:


 * Level 100 Legendary Bal Pet (15% boost while in magma fields/under y=64)
 * Having the Quick Claw pet item attached onto the pet (+50)
 * Looking at the direction of the wind during the Gone with the Wind event (+600)
 * Haste IV potion effect (+200)

With all of the above it is possible to achieve a base  without any multipliers, potions or events (alongside Sky Mall), and up to a maximum of   with all multipliers active by using Bal pet, Precision Mining, and Mining Speed Boost, having the Haste IV potion effect, alongside facing with the wind during the Gone with the Wind event with the proper Sky Mall perk active. This value is visible directly in the Skyblock menu (without decimal as how or if the game rounds the value is unconfirmed).

If the maximum mining speed is not exclusive to what is listed on the Stats of the Skyblock menu, then one can swap out Sky Mall for Professional (due to limited Tokens of the Mountain), which gives an additional +755 mining speed for Gemstones (Blue Cheese Goblin Omelette's buff included). In this case, the base mining would be  when breaking Gemstones, going all the way up to   with aforementioned buffs, but without Sky Mall.
