How to mine

Import the Obsidian waypoints into SkyHanni.

When Mining Speed Boost is ready, rod-swap to Scatha, switch to the drill with the Blue Cheese omelette, use the ability and run around mining both the floor and the walls.

While the ability is on cooldown, rod-swap back to the Snail and follow the waypoints in order: floor, wall, floor, wall, until the ability is ready again. Go clockwise. Replace your Will-o’-wisp whenever it runs out, and use the Rogue Sword and Weirder Tuba every 30 seconds.
