craft a zombie pickaxe and enchant it at the librarian. get it to efficiency v if you can. the xp from mining sand earlier should be enough to unlock the deep caverns or even the dwarven mines. visit rusty in the gold mine to add telekinesis to all of your weapons and tools. keep mining cobble (or other ores) in the first level of deep caverns until you unlock the recipe for a creeper minion. pick up a set of lapis armor in the lapis mine (useful for xp and therefore enchanting xp). then， you can keep going down to unlock the lift and ore collections. give the enchanted materials to rhys to unlock the dwarven mines (if you don''t have enough， just buy some from npcs， don''t mine in the deep caverns because it''s inefficient).

the next step is aote and full dragon armor， and this will mark the end of the beginning stage. a weapon upgrade is needed， and because of the competition in the end island， a weapon that deals ranged damage is preferred due to the low movement speed (no god potion or young dragon armor). a dreadlord sword is the easiest weapon to go for at this stage. firstly， go grind spiders slayers (slayer xp and money) to unlock the grappling hook recipe and get combat 15. then， visit the catacombs entrance floor and try to kill a couple of dreadlords. this can be done by attacking the dreadlord from a distance with the artisanal short bow. dying or failing the runs doesn''t matter in this case since the only goal is to get a dreadlord sword (it requires cata 1 which should be met when you get the sword). after obtaining a dreadlord sword， you can reforge the mercenary armor to wise， or use a different set with higher rarity if you have one. then， visit the end and farm 4.5 k health endermen until you get a full set of ender armor and enough pearls to unlock the recipe and craft an aote.

after getting an aote， find all the fairy souls for the stats buff. you can also find all the relics in the spider''s den. then， there are two routes to take to get a full set of dragon armor: keep farming eyes and leaching dragons in the nest， or keep doing catacombs entrance floor and floor 1. the leaching method requires less grinding but it takes longer. the dungeon method can get you full dragon during the first week of your ironman profile， but it requires long hours of grinding (spam dreadlord and artisanal short bow at the miniboss and tp away when it comes close， repeat).

for the rest:

buy a fishing rod and then fish in the hub until you unlock the recipes for fishing minion and clay minon. then place down those minions and don''t fish until fishing 17 (werewolf) or even 19 (flaming worm).

craft a golden axe and brew a haste pot， then you can visit the park and unlock the wood collections. ideally， don''t grind foraging at all before getting a treecapitator (use jungle minions and obsidian minions if you don''t mind waiting).

visit the nether island when you meet the level requirement， and then unlock the collections and minion recipes.

make sure to get the ice collection and a winter rod on jerry''s island.

mining: the best money-making method on ironman

a somewhat profitable mining set should be in place as soon as possible so that the profile has a decent money-making method and can proceed with necessary but costly purchases and upgrades， such as booster cookies， god pots， a builder''s wand， auto pet rules， dark auctions， and dungeon chests.

item progression line: fractured pickaxe -> glacite armor -> titanium pickaxe -> armadillo -> yog armor and bal pet (ruby drill)-> gauntlet -> divan''s armor

spoiler: mining

helpful mayors: cole and foxy (mining fiestas)

dwarven mine is not only the place to mine mithril and titanium ores but also the best place to mine regular ores. there are lots of minecarts with different types of ores at different locations， and mining at minecarts is many times more efficient than mining in the deep caverns.
