UPGRADE TINKERTOOL WITH HEAD FREE

Since you don't really need any modifiers when using a Signalum crossbow limb you can actually make the tool unbreakable! This currently uses up all modifier slots, but if you have access to Unstable Induced parts (the recipe is bugged in 2.4.2) you can free up one slot for fortune. However the body only seems to apply a durability multiplier as if it were a tool rod, and the tough binding has no effect on stats whatsoever.

The limb provides the base durability, draw speed and arrow speed as expected. I think crossbows might be a little bugged, or their stat calculations are really weird. The final mining speed is 36.61 with silk touch, 37.41 with fortune and 33.81 with fortune+autosmelt.įor comparison, the best you get without abusing Stonebound is 26.66/27.46/23.06 respectively (Enderium head+1 plate, Thaumium plate, magical wood rod) This leaves 5 modifier slots, one of which you probably want to use for silk touch or fortune (autosmelt optional), leaving room for 200 redstone (150 with autosmelt) Make sure you deplete the regular durability down to 1 before charging up the capacitor. You need a capacitor for this setup to work, and this tool can easily fit the Resonant Flux Capacitor. *Bedrockium (ExtraTiC version) large plateįor a total of 19 Ardite and 8 Bedrockium ingots Magical Wood actually has a similar effect granting crazy amounts of modifiers (usually +8) for a 'pure' tool, but the stats are horrible. On that second pick you actually want to replace the binding with paper or Magical Wood, regular bindings don't contribute to total durability and Thaumic only gives an extra modifier for the first piece, and another if the entire tool is made of Thaumium. Signalum is only relevant for projectile launchers as those use a different stat set. Higher weight seems to make arrows arbitrarily drop to the ground earlier, but I'm not sure if this is offset by damage or armour penetration as the guides suggest. Even a pure Ardite hammer outperforms Enderium while having a lot less 'junk' durability to go through.įor crossbows I found with a Signalum limb the accuracy stat of the arrows doesn't really matter, so you can use leaf fletching for more ammo (still stick moss on there anyway). The downside is you have to go through half a million durability points to actually reach that speed, and redo it every time you die with the 'tools lose 10% durability on death' config enabled. One interesting exception is the hammer, if you're willing to put in the effort there's actually a better top speed than Enderium: Ardite+Bedrockium. Especially the SAG Mill with Dark Steel Balls, which often give triple base yield. Specifically Fortune III gives 220% regular output on average, which beats standard 'ore doubling', but TE Rich Slag/Cinnabar and some grinder recipes might beat that for specific resources. The only real consideration here is which materials you want to use fortune-smelt on and which you want to silk touch instead. The same Enderium head+spam modifiers goes for all standard tools. In the end it doesn't matter much if you stick a capacitor on it though, as you can't reach a better tier either way. I believe you can get slightly better durability (and less annoying crafting imo) by using a Thaumium tool rod, and save materials by using a paper binding as the stats don't matter. + Redstone x 150 (15 Blocks of Redstone and 15 Redstone Dusts) + Diamond TIP: Repairs your tools so they won't ever broke. + Lava Crystal (When You mine a block it gets Auto-Smelted) + Luck x 450 (45 Blocks of Lapis Lazuli and 45 Lapis Lazuli) + Redstone x 50 (5 Blocks of Redstone and 5 Redstone Dusts) * Diamond Block + Notch Apples (Enchanted Golden Apple) + Redstone x 400 (20 Blocks of Redstone and 20 Redstone Dusts)

TIP: if you use a source of power like a Restone Fux Capacitor to power your Items, you will have pretty much unbreakable pickaxe.

To repair a tool, you must choose the 'Repair and Modify' button (which looks like an Anvil) and place the tool in the slot that appears to have a 'Pickaxe' in it, along with an ingot of the material used to create the head of the tool in the modifying slot.+ Leadstone or Hardened Flux Capacitor (Makes your pickaxe to require Energy) The Tool Station can also repair your tools up to maximum durability. All parts must be present for the tool to be created. When a tool is selected, place the required parts into the indicated boxes. The Tool Station has 12 tabs found on the left side of the GUI. You can create the following tools with the Tool Station: *Iron Blocks may be replaced with Gold Blocks, Diamond Blocks, Emerald Blocks, Cobalt Blocks, Ardite Blocks, Manyullyn Blocks, Copper Blocks, Bronze Blocks, Tin Blocks, Aluminum Blocks, Aluminum Brass Blocks, Alumite Blocks, or Steel Blocks.
