Pickaxe of life and death

Pickaxe of life and death

Pickaxe of life and death is a tier 1 members main-hand weapon for melee. No shop sells Pickaxe of life and death and no monster drops it, so an Ironman makes it: it takes 100 Smithing, using Pickaxe of earth and song, Mysterious black stone fragment, Attuned moonstone (rock) and Metallic meteorite fragment.

Ironman verdict

Where the materials come from: Pickaxe of earth and song (made with 90 Smithing); Mysterious black stone fragment (from Slab); Attuned moonstone (rock) (made with 100 Mining). Reaching level 100 Smithing takes 14,391,160 XP in total; the Smithing calculator counts the actions and materials to any target, and the Smithing guide has the Ironman training route. One recipe uses Pickaxe of life and death: Augmented pickaxe of life and death. It is worn in the main-hand weapon slot at tier 1 as melee gear; compare it with every other piece on the Main-hand weapons list. Pickaxe of life and death is members-only. It is untradeable, so every account, Ironman or not, gets it the same way.
