Learning

The Dowsing tech, learned at a University of Body, gives you the ability to assemble a Dowsing Rod and requires a minimum level of 4.

Dowsing may be taught to another player in 4 lessons. Peasants can learn the tech in this fashion.

To dowse, you MUST have a Dowsing Rod in your inventory. This gives you a new action icon in upper portion of the screen.

Dowsing results are reported in your main chat if you have the Utility - Interface - Use console... option checked. If you have your chats minimized the result will not be posted in the main chat.

Observations

With a perception of at least 22 (may be less) when near a vein of Tungsten or Magnesium it will state you detect a vein of Magensium Ore nearby (or tungsten)

The following table indicates which ore are recognisable at what perception level. Remember that you can spot some ore but not recognise it, in which case it will be the ore with the immediately higher perception level required.

Perception Ore
0 Copper
1 Iron
2 Unknown
3 Tin
4 Unknown
5 Unknown
6 Unknown (Lead or Tungsten)
7 Lead
8 Unknown
9 Unknown
10 Unknown
11 Unknown
12 Unknown
13 Unknown
14 Unknown
15 Unknown
16 Magnesium
  • Copper ore identifies as such even with a Perception of 0.
  • Iron ore identifies as such with a perception of 2
  • Tin Ore identifies as Unrecognized with perception of 2.
  • Zinc Ore identifies as such with a perception of 6.
  • Lead ore identifies as such with a perception of 7, unrecognizable at 6.
