Tools are items primarily used to dismantle World tiles, such as Blocks, Walls, or freeing placed items, to convert them into carryable objects. Pickaxes, axes, and hammers can also be used as melee weapons, although they generally offer less damage than actual Weapons of corresponding tiers.
| Pickaxes and Drills | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Pickaxes are tools that can be used to pick up most terrain blocks. They may also be used to remove grass, and destroy planted tree saplings. Their tier defines the type of blocks that can be mined as well as the number of hits it takes to remove a single block. Drills function the same as Pickaxes. | |||||
