What it does

Each added pickaxe changes how mining works. The Moss Pickaxe breaks moss convertible blocks and normal stone much faster, and the Icy Pickaxe does the same for ice, packed ice, blue ice and snow. The Smelter Pickaxe smelts its drops as they break, and the Magnet Pickaxe pulls mined drops straight into the holding player's hand instead of letting them fall. The Encumbering Pickaxe blocks its holder from picking up dropped items.

Some tools focus on reach or large-scale mining. The Crab Claw Pickaxe adds 2 blocks of entity interaction range, the Crowbar Pickaxe breaks large numbers of artificial blocks quickly, and the Negative Mining Pickaxe mines hard blocks fast and soft blocks slowly. Right-clicking with the Anglerfish Pickaxe mines underwater faster and raises the chance of fishing loot. The Ancient Beast Pickaxe chains through world-base stone in a fishbone shape, and the Bedrock Pickaxe breaks almost any block, including those with hardness -1.

Key features

  1. Fast moss and ice mining

    The Moss and Icy Pickaxes break their target blocks much faster than other tools.

  2. Smelting and magnet drops

    The Smelter Pickaxe smelts drops as they break, and the Magnet Pickaxe pulls them into the player's hand.

  3. Chained stone mining

    The Ancient Beast Pickaxe mines connected world-base stone in a fishbone pattern.

  4. Crowbar and Negative mining

    The Crowbar Pickaxe clears large numbers of artificial blocks, while the Negative Mining Pickaxe favors hard blocks over soft ones.

  5. Bedrock mining

    The Bedrock Pickaxe mines almost every block, including those with hardness -1.
