Every session, between the moment your level timer reads 04:00 and 06:00 on the HUD, a mysterious force sweeps the cave. For 60 seconds, every gold ore vanishes from the world and the minimap. The only way to mine gold during the window — hunt monsters. Every enemy kill has a 50% chance to drop a visible gold ore at the kill position.
Keep your combat sharp, because the gold is off the table until you earn it back.
A captured spirit may now follow your miner for the duration of the session, drawing a pulsing gold arrow toward the nearest gold ore.
Each captured spirit has a 50% chance of being adopted. Once adopted, the arrow re-picks target on every gold-ore mined and every 10 s of no gold-ore mining.
