Enhanced Gathering: Tool Influence System
Our mining and lumberjacking systems have been enhanced to reward the use of high-quality, colored tools.
These changes do not replace normal resource generation. Instead, they provide a subtle bonus that makes skilled gathering with exceptional tools feel more rewarding over time.
General Rules
The tool must be:
- A Pickaxe or Hatchet
- Crafted from a colored material
- Of Exceptional quality
When these conditions are met, the tool may occasionally influence the result, producing a higher-tier resource related to the tool’s material. This does not consume extra charges or durability beyond normal use.
