Talk:Tool Durability Chart
From The Blockheads Wiki
I did an experiment and got almost 114 blocks of stone using a gold pickaxe. I don't know if it "gifted" me with any. --McClaw (talk) 16:04, 19 February 2013 (MST)
- Great. If you want to add that to the chart, you can. If you don't I'll eventually get around to it. If the numbers are ever a little off, they can be edited when we get more data. This chart will take a very long time to complete but I think with more contributors, we can put a good dent in it. I started with just some basic ones. Cdrras (talk) 16:48, 19 February 2013 (MST)
The count for Stone Spade / Sand may need retesting. And when I ran my Gold Spade / Dirt test, I also got: two each corn, coconut, maple seed, sunflower seed, carrot; three each coffee cherry, clay, chilli; four each flint, flax seed, pine cone; six mango; an undetermined number of Time Crystals. --McClaw (talk) 17:58, 21 February 2013 (MST)
- Sounds good. I will try running the test and see what results I get. As for the gold pick axe, we may want to make a separate chart at a later time that charts the percentage of each extra item that you get when using a gold pick axe. Just a thought. I think it would be a great feature. I would possibly add the chart to the gold pick axe page with a dedicated section. Cdrras (talk) 20:59, 21 February 2013 (MST)
- I was actually thinking that it might be more appropriate to have a "Gold Tool" page instead of separating the pickaxe and shovel. None of the other tool materials have their own page, after all. (Although "Gem Pickaxe" might be appropriate, too.) --McClaw (talk) 21:03, 21 February 2013 (MST)
- What we could do is make a "Gold Tool" page and then on the Pickaxe and Spade page have a Subsection and title it something like "Gold Pickaxe Bonus" (on the pickaxe page) and "Gold Spade Bonus" (on the spade page). I would put it right before the Durability section. In that subsection we could write a few simple sentences saying something like "The gold pickaxe has an additional benefit of finding additional items while being used." Of course the exact words would be a little different than that, but you get the drift. Then in that subsection, we can use the See Also template to direct people to the Gold Tool Page where two charts would be. One for Gold Pickaxes and one for Gold Spades with the item found percentages. Cdrras (talk) 07:29, 22 February 2013 (MST)
- I also retested Stone Spade/Sand and got 205, so I updated the table. 09:25, 22 February 2013 (MST)
