What is Gold Rush?
Gold Bars remain a crucial currency, allowing players to purchase items. This season introduces a twist: acquiring gold activates Gold Rush, boosting speed, pickaxe swing speed, and pickaxe structural damage.
Gold Rush provides a significant competitive advantage, similar to Boons or Medallions, though temporary. There are several ways to activate this powerful buff.

Activating Gold Rush
Unlike other abilities, Gold Rush offers multiple activation methods. Players can activate it by swimming in gold-infused water, located at various points on the map.
Alternatively, mining Gold Veins, the source of Gold Bars, also grants Gold Rush. Shiny Shafts, a primary source of Gold for Fletcher Kane, is an excellent location to find these veins. However, be cautious; Kane's forces are heavily guarding his wealth.
