Chips? Chips. Chip-chip.
Stone Pickaxe is the starter mining tool in Windrose. It is the first pickaxe craftable on a new island and the required implement for breaking Copper Ore veins inside Copper Caves. The recipe is identical to the Stone Axe: 3 Stone and 3 Wood at a placed Workbench with no level requirement, so most players craft both tools at the same time.

Beyond the recipe, the Stone Pickaxe appears as a guaranteed chest drop inside one Coastal Jungle cave POI. It is not a reliable source; the recipe is almost always faster than searching for the chest, and the drop is more useful as a backup if a player lost their pickaxe mid-run.
Source | Type | Quantity | Chance |
|---|---|---|---|
Coastal Jungle Cave 01 (pos 3) | Chest | 1 | 100% |
The Stone Pickaxe is not bought or sold by any vendor. The tool is exclusively crafted at a Workbench.
Mine Copper Ore veins inside Copper Caves on the starting island. Nothing lower-tier can register a hit.
Break grey boulders blocking side passages and deeper cave chambers inside Copper Caves.
Harvest raw Stone from open rock across the Coastal Jungle.
Harvest Clay from muddy ground near coastal grass-to-shoreline transitions. Clay feeds Rosalinda Mercer's bottle-making loop.
Harvest Fertile Soil at Foothills Ancient Farm POIs. Fertile Soil is the gating material for Seedbeds, which open the Farming pipeline.
Pickaxes have an explicit durability pool that ticks down with each swing. The Stone Pickaxe carries 100 Durability in the item panel, so long mining runs will burn through several tools if the player does not move up to Copper or Iron. The upgrade to Copper Pickaxe (140 Durability, 270 ATK) is the single best quality-of-life improvement in the early pickaxe ladder.
Pickaxe | Station | Recipe | Mines |
|---|---|---|---|
Workbench Lvl 1 | 5 Copper Ingot + 5 Wood | All above + Foothills Iron Ore | |
Workbench Lvl 2 | 5 Foothills Iron Ingot + 5 Wood | All above + Sulfur | |
Weaponsmith Workshop Lvl 3 | 5 Ingot Arborum + 10 Hardwood |
Craft two Stone Pickaxes before your first Copper Cave run. Each one handles a small stack of copper nodes before the durability pool runs out.
If a cave run ends with broken tools and no ingots delivered, the same Workbench that built the pickaxes can re-craft them from the open rock outside the cave entrance.
Keep a Stone Pickaxe in reserve chests even after moving to Copper or Iron. Its free recipe makes it a safe backup for any session where the primary tool breaks deep in a POI.
