Mining Skill/Traits + Easily Obtaining Gecko Skinning

[Catoptromancy]

I like craftable backpack worn in place of armor for double carry weight. Supersledge is already good melee weapon. Craftable pickaxe would only be usable for mining and give double mats and use half the AP. Both of these items would eliminate need for more perks just for mining.

I don't like your mining idea, do you really want more "miner" alts? With your suggestion, players are forced to make a new build just for mining.

I like Gecko Skinning support perk location, as you can do quests around there if you just started to play.

But we already have mining alts:

HQ: ST 7 plus drugs, max Carry Weight, and both Action Boys. PE 1 with Heavy Handed Bonehead.
LQ: ST 10 all the same but uses Jet too.

So do this idea or not, some of us will always optimize an alt for mining.
