The Liquid Gold Nymph is a character that features in the Lava Flow Mine. She is one of the distractions from mining the lava crust, along with boiler breakages, TzHaar heroes, and possessed pickaxes. The reward of appeasing her will be a piece of the golden mining suit, which works in the same way as lumberjack clothing, giving a 5% mining experience boost when all pieces are worn.
When she appears, a message in the chatbox reads "A Liquid Gold Nymph rises out of the lava as you mine". She only appears to one player at a time and will not automatically talk to the player, though more than one nymph can appear at any time. After she appears, the player has 5 minutes to talk to her to gain the reward before she disappears. Even if the 5 minutes aren't up, she will disappear upon logout, even due to disconnection and even if you come back before the time has passed.
A player that loses connection while attempting to receive a reward from the Golden Nymph will not receive a reward.
If you have all five pieces of the golden mining suit, she will offer to give you either some Mining experience (2500), or gild a pickaxe you have in your inventory. The sacred clay pickaxe and inferno adze cannot be gilded. One should be careful with experience reward if it's not wanted, as when player asks does the nymph have anything apart from gold it will instantly choose experience reward.
It might take minutes, hours, or even days to get a single piece of the golden mining suit. Her appearance is completely random. It is confirmed that the segment in which you mine does not affect the appearance of a nymph; it only affects the experience being earned. Although it is not confirmed, due to the fact that she appears to only one player at a time, it's not unlikely that mining on a world where no other players are present at the Lava Flow may increase your chances of encountering her.
When the Nymph appears, she will make a simple humming sound so it is recommended to have the sound effects on high to hear her since it is a faint noise.
