The Spectre Pickaxe is a Hardmode, post-Plantera pickaxe. It has a mining range boost of three blocks, giving it a long range compared to most pickaxes. It can mine any block except Lihzahrd Bricks. Unlike most Hardmode pickaxes, this one has no drill counterpart.

Its best modifier is Legendary. While Light may seem to provide a better speed boost by percentages, rounding reveals that Legendary and Light mine at equal speeds for this tool.

Notes[]

  • Quick-Select will not switch to the Spectre Pickaxe if the targeted block is only within its bonus range.
  • The Spectre Pickaxe is roughly 20% slower than the Drax or the Pickaxe Axe.
  • Like the Chlorophyte Mining tools, it is not recommended to craft the Spectre Pickaxe as it does not allow the player to mine anymore blocks that previous ones cannot. However, its range advantage still gives it an edge until post-Golem/Moon Lord items like the Laser Drill and Luminite Pickaxes are obtained.
  • When placed on a Weapon Rack, the Spectre Pickaxe is slightly larger than the other pickaxes.

History[]

  • 3DS-Release: Introduced with recipe from Desktop 1.2.1.
