The rare drop enchant seems bugged on the Pickaxe. You will get more fossils, but no more/less geodes. After removing it from my pickaxe I get about 3 geodes per floor.

I am currently testing them as I didn't really think about it before. The 3 geodes per floor was while wearing 1 rare drop ring. Note that I have the Geode finder skill from lvling mining.

I will test with and without rings for a few ingame days, will be back in a bit. 🙂

Ok so, I did 3 days straight for with and without rings.
The amount of earth geodes on average is spot on the same. The amount of fossils went up by a significant ammount, but the mystery geodes went down. It almost seems like you get more fossil drop rate and less rare geode drop.

Now I know the rare drop enchant on the pickaxe basically voids any and all geodes. With the rings it doesn't seem to be the case, making me guess it is a pickaxe enchantment problem only.

#

I'd say, put the rings on if you need more fossils and take them off if you need more geodes.

Sure! The thing with such a small test is that it is not super reliable, pure luck could have influenced it. But I will post it just in case!
