What means the sentence in the Merchant description : "pays off within 600 days (at base level)" ?

It's a comparison between the price of the mine and the price of the copper deposits you can also buy in the merchant.

A level 1 copper mine produces 225 ore every 12 hours (as closest possible walking distance). So, in 600 days, that's 270,000 ore which has cost you 20K gems. This works out at 13.5 ore per gem.

The deposits in the merchant are 35 gems for 500 ore, which is 14.3 ore per gem.

Basically, they're justifying the high price as a long term investment.

can endless copper mines be buffed?

this is wrong, because obvisously an endless cooper mine will not be left level 1, but will become level 5.

So in 600 days you will have 270k*5 = 1.350K ore,

The deposits bought from the merchant will of course have the same value, since they run out simply faster.

Read something properly before you say it's wrong

Sorry i read it properly still wrong.

To put in more accurately.

It is not exactly wrong, but is an explantion of totally no value, since cooper mines will be upgraded for sure, you compare apples to oranges.

Sigh: "pays off within 600 days (at base level)"

Regarding the Endless Copper Mine i'm curious with the new skill three if the Quality Copper Mineshaft skill would also work on Endless Copper mine and than make it mine faster forever? anyone has any knowlage about this?
