Quarry Worker
As a quarry worker you can work together with other players to earn Mining and Trucking experience.
Getting Started
Head over to the Quarry in Sandy Shores and go to the Specialized Job Center (
) and select the Quarry Worker job.
Then, head over to the spawners besides the job center to spawn an excavator or dump truck.
Doing the Job
The Quarry worker job is co-op friendly, where players can choose to use the dump truck (
) while at Mining level 1-50. once you reach level 50 you can use the Excavator (
).
Additionally, when you reach Mining level 70 you gain access to a special dump truck, which you can spawn near the drop-off point for the dump trucks ()
The Excavator operator's job is to dig up buckets of gravel and dump it into the dump truck(s) till it's full. The dump trucks then take it to a drop-off point marked on their map (Randomly chosen point) and tip it away to receive rewards. (Mining and Trucking XP Split between the number of helpers)
In order to take the role of a truck driver, you need to spawn the dump truck at the spawner
next to the Specialized Job Center ( ). When you have spawned the truck, go over to one of the excavators and park the truck up next to them, so they can dump their bucket into your truck bed. Once the bed is 100% full, you will get a waypoint marked on your map. Go over to the waypoint and follow the on-screen instructions to dump your bed and get paid.
In order to take the role of the excavator, you need to spawn an excavator at the spawner
next to the Specialized Job Center ( ). When seated in your excavator, you will be given a location inside the quarry to go and dig at. Once arrived at the dig site, you will need to control the excavator and follow the on-screen instructions to dig up gravel and dump it into the tipper trucks.
(The controls for the boom follow the same control scheme as the submarine controls so if you wish to change the keybindings, change the keys for submarines.).
Rewards
The rewards are distributed to everyone who contributed to that particular drop off (Excavator Operator and Dumptruck Driver) Each Excavator Operator will receive full XP gains no matter how many excavators helped load the trucks, however, the cash reward is split between all excavators that participated. This job can be done solo as well. You can use the excavator to dig up buckets of gravel and filled your own spawned mule truck until full, head to the drop-off point, and reap your rewards!
You get 2 different EXP gains when completing a drop-off.
- Mining
- Trucking
As well as cash rewards for your efforts.
Leaderboards
The API supports 4 different leaderboards regarding the job. Those leaderboards can also be found scattered across the Quarry area. All Quarry worker leaderboards are persistent, so they represent the total effort a player has done.
