[Guide] Getting Quartz

Discussion in 'Empire Help & Support' started by Xinn, Mar 25, 2013.

  1. Taken from the wiki.
    Nether Quartz may seem to be very common, but is actually about as abundant as ironin the overworld. It simply appears to be more abundant because you can see more exposed surface area compared to caves in the overworld. This makes it a very easy task to find the ore. It is also available at any layer. There is an average of roughly 70 ores per chunk.
  2. Ok? And I pretty much stated that?
  3. iron. not coal or redstone.
  4. It spawns as much as iron per-chunk, but its much easier to find lying around than iron and has such a different ore pattern that it seems much more like coal than iron.
  5. lol. When i went mining my feather falling boots saved my life about 4 times. Then a ghast came and knocked me off a cliff... into lava.
  6. Step 3.5 - Make it back to town without dying.

  7. I'm preparing a fast, automated railway track for public use, I expect it to be ready in 2 days.
    It goes 6k out and will be extended even further.

    Travel time is around 10 min.
    It is very comfortable, you can lean back and browse the forum while riding and you will be surprised how fast it goes. :)

    Promotional one-time admission fee is 350r per account, it will be 400r later.

    I'd need 2-3 helpers:
    - to widen the tunnel and lay down half-slabs
    - for PR, including writing signs with instructions.

    Anyone interested please send me a PM.
  8. :D very nice

  9. The name of the new railway company is

    Quartz Express

    The technical part of the first track is done.
    mba2012 works on public relations.

    I still need people to make the stations more pretty,
    add direction signs, perhaps add some portals, etc.

    Admission fee is 400r (one-time payment).
    Customers, naturally, need to know how to use railway.
