Nightmare Pickaxe

The Nightmare Pickaxe is the fifth tier of Pickaxes, being one tier above the Gold Pickaxe and one tier below the Molten Pickaxe. Like all pickaxes, it is used to mine a majority of blocks and ores.

The Nightmare Pickaxe is faster than the Molten Pickaxe, although not nearly as powerful. It is recommended to use a Nightmare Pickaxe to mine dirt, mud, sand, and clay instead of a Molten Pickaxe, as it is faster and can destroy them in one hit, too.

This and the Molten Pickaxe are the only pickaxes able to mine Ebonstone Blocks, Obsidian, and Hellstone.

The Nightmare Pickaxe is able to dig soft materials like dirt or clay at 3.6 blocks a second, materials like stone at 1.9 blocks a second, and the hardest materials like ebonstone at 1 block a second.
