Halflings unable to go mining?

[ryvan]

I started a halfling character with the intentions of concentrating on all the various crafting skills.
But it would seem im not able to equip a mining pick therefore cant go mining.

Is this intentional or something that just went unnoticed?
OIr have i just not found a small pick that halfings can use?

[Harloff]

Rogues are in general not able to wield pickaxes without the martial weapon feat. But haflings and gnomes might be to small to wield pickaxes in general, can't say i have never had a hafling or gnome figther...

Halflings can mine, you do need the martial feat, though.

Triba (hafling rogue ranger) mines better than Enzo (human ranger)


Just need the feat.  

[ryvan]

ahh i was hoping it was something like that that i had missed - thanks - ill make sure i take it when i get a feat

[Harloff]

You will however not become a very good miner without "power attack". The miners best friend/feat. *sheds a tear*

Yep. The power attack is awesome. I can get roughly 3 times as much ore in the same amount of time. Same with chopping trees, (Don't tell the druids I said that!).
