Stone picks are great for mining obsidian. I can have a DC of obsidian in half the time I could with those mincer thingys.
I have Ore Busters and Mineral Mincers. In terms of what I treasure most... the Ore Busters simply take it by a mile!
I foresee the prices for stone pickaxes rising dramatically I might try to see one for 10k soon Well, there can only be one And to my knowledge Uber_Corq is still the owner so yeah... I also don't think anyone can afford the Uber Pick (I still need to laugh when thinking back about that, it was so much fun!)
