Pickaxe Enchants

Pickaxe Enchantments

Pickaxe enchantments are special upgrades applied to custom pickaxes via Enchant Crystals.

Each pickaxe can hold multiple enchants, though a couple conflict with each other.

Like the shovel, the pickaxe's enchants lean into mining, detection, and economy rather than combat.

Enchant lines appear on the pickaxe's lore between the separator lines, above the VortexArtifacts footer.


Rarity Tiers

Rarity controls how often an enchant shows up when rolling a crystal - weights are per-enchant, and higher rolls more often.

Rolling a crystal past the cap doesn't block it, but cuts the base success rate by 10% (only exactly at cap) - Crystal Dust can offset this, but never above the crystal's original base.

Conflict Reference

Pressure Drill and Pressure Point both ramp up break speed through overlapping mechanisms, so only one can be active at a time. Conflicts are filtered out before the crystal rolls, so you'll never waste one on an incompatible outcome.
