Dwarven Mine hidden mine




 * This page refers to both resource dungeons in the dungeon itself. As with all resource dungeons, players who have the required Dungeoneering level may unlock them. Both of these resource dungeons are available to free-to-play and are found in the Dwarven Mine.

Dwarven Mine Dungeon
A Dungeoneering level of 15 is the only requirement to enter this dungeon and awards the player 1500 experience on their first entry. The dungeon contains a bank deposit box, Silver rocks (3), coal rocks (13), and mithril rocks (6).

Mining Guild Dungeon




There is another resource dungeon located inside the Mining Guild. It

requires level 45 Dungeoneering and level 60 Mining to access. Players are given 4400 Dungeoneering experience upon first entrance. Boosts can be used for the mining requirement to enter the guild. Inside are 7 mithril rocks, 4 adamantite rocks, and 3 runite rocks. The presence of runite in this dungeon makes it very lucrative to mine here, as there are no monsters and these are the only runite rocks available to free players other than in the deep wilderness. It is nearly impossible to find a world with a runite ore present, especially in F2P worlds.

Trivia

 * The release of this dungeon unlocked the safest area to mine runite on F2P servers.
 * While in the level 15 resource dungeon, the game glitches to black screen or freezes very often. However, this appears to be somewhat dependent on the graphics used, so it is recommended to use lower graphics settings, such as safe mode and/or minimum detail. It seems like those glitches occur only if you are using direct-x based graphics. The type of used graphics can be changed in the lobby under the graphic section (custom).
 * Like all other Resource Dungeons, these two each contain a strange obelisk with no apparent purpose
 * At one point, there was a bank deposit box placed near the exit door, allowing quick banking. This was removed in a hidden update. It was then added again in another hidden update.
 * There seems to be a huge rock that is northeast of the centre of the coal section. It is possible that it once held an enormous amount of ore.

Controversy

 * Some players believe that the Dungeoneering requirement for the level 45 Dungeon is too low, as it is a very good spot for mining on F2P. They believe access to this spot should be more limited to more experienced players.
 * Runite, admantite, mithril price suffered a large drop due to these dungeons, the main cause is the new safe runite ore resource to free players, and the considerably shortened banking time. However the other ores are stabilized by members and did not dip seriously.
 * As the Dungeoneering requirement for the level 15 Dungeon is fairly easy to obtain, it is rare to not find anyone else inside.
