This next series of guides will dive into the different jobs in Era and how to maximize your time and get the most money in return.
Digging
Digging is probably the most profitable job in Era. Although digging tends to get boring very quickly, and the crabs (
on steroids) can become annoying, this job will get you to your goal the second fastest
(edit: in terms of net income look into doing car missions, it is faster)

Tips:Although you may have a favorite digging spot, here are my recommendations on where to dig and when you dig in order to help you reach your goal quickly
Here I have circled three areas that are perfect for digging:
In the area to the top left:
I recommend digging along the wall. If someone is already there, dig vertically just to the left of them.
If that spot is taken you have two options of digging on the island of the holiday shop(circle on the bottom left):
Dig in the space to the right of the building(where those two player are digging now) and the space to the left of the building.
Finally if that spot is taken, you can also dig anywhere in the area here (circle on the bottom right):
If you have another area then that fine as long as it is not in a pk area due to the fact that other players might kill you and and therefore wasting your time.
Final Note: The times don't take into account how much money you may already have.
Buy your shovels in BULK so say 50 at a time.
Finally, Im not sure on the amount of time it takes for your shells to become unprotected so be sure to pick up your shells when you see the Rusty shovel indicator just in case.
Hopefully this helped!!
