Metal Shovel
Early · 9,000 Gold
Metal Shovel jumps Power to 5 with a +15% walk speed. It is the first shovel that reliably handles tougher, higher-rarity dig spots.
Stats
Strength of the tool. For shovels, higher power digs faster and breaks into heavier spots; for sprays, it cleans faster.
Bonus to your movement speed, so you cover ground between digs faster.
Verified notes
- Price 9,000 Gold in one source, 10,000 in another (unresolved discrepancy).
How this fits the loop
Dig power decides whether you can break into the heavier, rarer spots. Buy a stronger shovel the moment a dig is refused — see the gear upgrade guide.
