Im a fail dropper, so I never do it...which is why unless i got someone trading me at granite and dropping for me its hella slow...but thats just me. I've never tried dropping at concentrated gold but ive seen a few people doing it...the bank is right there so its really not needed imo

people can do what the want, but if you want exp, you wouldnt want the v chest since it will fill your inventory too fast.

I found that the granite or sandstone is faster with a drop because the living rock caverns would be faster if the two gold deposits lasted but they fail so you go to the other but that may also be waiting to respawn. So you have transit, respawn and the possibility that you need to deal with a living rock creature to slow you down otherwise it would easily be in excess of 60 thousand per hour. I average 50 thousand without a summons and banking the ores.

I just tried the granite without a summons to get used to it and I got a stinking 43,340. My gosh I got to figure out whats wrong because everyone tell me its fast.
