Mine a Mountain Tier List
This tier list ranks the decisions that affect a climb: warmth when freezing stops progress, backpack space when capacity ends runs, pickaxe power when mining is slow, and paid boosts as optional caveats.
Run blocker first
Rank by the problem ending the run: freezing, full backpack, slow mining, weak sell timing, or paid boost ownership.
Upgrade ranking only
The verified loop is climbing, mining, selling, and upgrading gear, so this page ranks those decisions instead of unsupported meta claims.

Best current upgrade priorities
Use this as a decision order, not a promise that one upgrade is always best. The right priority changes when your run blocker changes.

Base-game upgrades
Warmth, pickaxe, and backpack upgrades are source-backed by the official Roblox description.
Paid options
Gamepasses can change the bottleneck, but they should stay separate from base-game advice.
Held data
Exact crystal values, upgrade prices, and warmth thresholds remain needs-check until verified.
