  1. Nob mining guide
    Nob mining was once a worthless activity. Other than a quick way for a hansel build to self pin the nobility exchange rate was pennies. Now at 1.3b top payout its a little more attractive. Heres a quick guide on nob mining strategy. 

    What is it? 
    Nob mining is spending troops hitting the first quest over and over for the 2% chance that you will get nobility points. Some people suggest u hit higher quests but i believe the first is best because its quick to find, has nearly 100% success rate, and you wont make much money on any of them anyway. 

    When should you mine? 
    When you have a few leftover troops. When you are not going to be checking in for at least an hour. (bedtime for instance)
    Anytime you need to self pin fast
    When you cant find a target. (if you will not be away long only spend a few troops mining)
    The exception to this is when an osf is available. 

    How many nobs can i make this way? 
    It really depends on how often you check in and whether you have an active osf. I make 2-5 nobility a day following this strategy. 

    Anyway i made this cause ive had alot of questions on my wall about it. I hope this helps.
