    Orichalcum Drill

The Orichalcum Drill is a Hardmode drill, and is the drill alternative to the Orichalcum Pickaxe. Appearances and sounds aside, the two tools are nearly functionally identical. The drill, however is half a second faster. But, unlike pickaxes, most drills cannot be reforged with size, speed, or knockback modifiers.

It can mine any block except Chlorophyte Ore and Lihzahrd Bricks.

Its best modifier is Demonic, as it does not have any knockback and thus cannot get modifiers that affect it, and furthermore cannot get modifiers that affect its speed, either.

History[]

  • Desktop 1.4.0.1:
    • Sprite updated.
    • All drills and chainsaws now dig faster than their non-mechanical counterparts, but have shorter range.
    • Additionally, optimized digging loadouts still perform better on pickaxes/axes, but drills and chainsaws will be faster on non-optimized loadouts.
