It would be harvesting berries that would cause the most issues, as foliage is really easy to break

I use normal forged totems with aoe only. Theyre cheap enough to acquire and they cant break any block even on T1 planets (thats unless you whack the same block repeatedly obv).

I considered totems as well but they are harder to forge and have even less durability!

I know they cost 0 resources to craft the base tool, but wooden tools take so little it’s not really a consideration.

Edits: can’t make my works do what I want today :face_with_raised_eyebrow:

Could 1x3 boon be better option here ?

I would advise going for 3x3 copper shovels, they’re lightning fast and a bit more durable than wood;

I used to go through a stack a day when i was collecting clay for my builds’ bricks… getting essentially a perfect forge though is what’s going to cost you the arm and the leg; if you would be happy to settle with a 3x3 copper minus dura minus speed that can be done quite cheaply

Edit* it would be cheaper to make 3 aoe axes than adding dura reliably to one, which is why i say dropping the requirements is advisable

Edit 2, cheap speed brew beats forged speed for cost. Dura pies are even cheap enough to consider these days. Hmmmm, lemme know and i can quote you on a combo set hehe
