**Discover the Best Area to Farm Miners Shards in The Forge**

Starting your journey in The Forge, a popular game on Roblox, often revolves around gathering resources to forge powerful items. Among these resources, Miners Shard Runes stand out due to their utility and rarity. This guide will help you efficiently farm these valuable Runes and understand their benefits.

### Best Areas To Farm Miners Shards

As of the BETA release, there are two primary methods to obtain Miners Shard Runes:

1. **Defeat Delver Zombies** in Stonewake Cross caves.
2. **Defeat Bomber Skeletons** in the Sunken Cells or the volcano entrance rear within the Forgotten Kingdom Caves.

#### Delver Zombie
– **Location:** Stonewake Cross
– **Sub Locations:** The Cave, Inner Cave, and Deeper Cave Layers
– **Level range:** 1-10
– **HP:** 40-175
– **DMG:** 12-30.4
– **Miner Shard Drop Chance:** 1 in 35

#### Bomber Skeleton
– **Location:** Forgotten Kingdom
– **Sub Locations:** Crumbling Halls, Sunken Cells, and Ashen Passage
– **Level range:** 1-5
– **HP:** 60-120
– **DMG:** 70 DMG
– **Miner Shard Drop Chance:** 1 in 15

While Bomber Skeletons have higher damage potential, they pause before detonating, giving you a window to attack without taking damage. They also boast a higher drop rate for Miner Shards and other materials like larger Essences, Boneite, and Blast Chips.

### Mining Shard Variants

Mining Shards enhance Pickaxes with Rune Sockets, offering more variations than other Runes:

– **Luck:** 5-16% Luck Increase on the Pickaxe.
– **Yield:** 3-10% chance for nodes to drop an additional Ore.
– **Swift Mining:** 4-12% Faster Mining.
– **Mine Power:** 8-15% extra Mining Damage.

Greedy Cey buys Mining Shards for $25 per Rune, providing a financial incentive for farming.

### What are Runes?

Runes are enhancements for equipment in The Forge, usable on Pickaxes, Weapons, and Armour to amplify their capabilities. Specifically, Mining Shards improve mining efficiency, offering players a cost-effective alternative to upgrading tools.
