Talk:Luminite Pickaxes

Best Modifier
Should light not be the best modifier as it gives 5% more speed than legendary and the additional damage and crit will do nothing for mining?
 * Technically, the matter of "best" is non-negotiable. Modifiers have an inherent value, which is visible in the changes they cause to an item's buy and sell price. Any given weapon's best modifier is the one that adds the most monetary value to the weapon while still being legally applicable given its base stats. Most pickaxes don't even have stated best modifiers on their pages, because so few of the stats apply to them in their intended application.
 * However, because they share melee modifiers, it may be worth making an exception for tools similar to how summoning weapons are handled, which similarly share modifiers with magic weapons, but gain nothing from most of the stat increases. I'll go ahead and make this change here, and if it's taken favorably it can be rolled out elsewhere. Gearzein (talk) 07:23, 28 July 2015 (UTC)
