It is not surfaced as a guaranteed drop from any current loot table, and the ingredient chain is expensive enough that farming for one would not outpace simply crafting it.17+Vendor Availability19+The Swamp Pickaxe is not bought or sold by any vendor.

The upgrade is entirely about durability and biome access.1325Progression Notes1527Because the Swamp Pickaxe and the Swamp Axe share the same recipe, the same station, and the same tier gate, most players craft both in a single trip to the Weaponsmith Workshop. The pickaxe lasts three times longer than the Stone Pickaxe before breaking and outhits every lower tier, so it doubles as a low-maintenance mining tool for any ore you return to later in the game.28+Because the Swamp Pickaxe and the Swamp Axe share the same recipe (5 Ingot Arborum + 10 Hardwood), the same station, and the same tier gate, most players craft both in a single trip to the Weaponsmith Workshop. The pickaxe lasts three times longer than the Stone Pickaxe before breaking and outhits every lower tier, so it doubles as a low-maintenance mining tool for any ore you return to later in the game.1729When to Craft One31+Crafting a Swamp Pickaxe is only worthwhile when Arborum content is actively on your roadmap. The Iron Pickaxe at 200 Durability handles every node through the Foothills without issue, so the Swamp Pickaxe's 300 Durability is more of a convenience upgrade for players who plan to spend long sessions in late-game biomes.33+If Ingot Arborum is rationed, the pickaxe is usually a higher-priority craft than the axe: mining hardened swamp rock is the more common bottleneck than cutting cursed trees, and the pickaxe feeds continued resource gathering rather than a single biome-specific wood type.35+Tips37+Bring a stack of spare Ingot Arborum and Hardwood to the Weaponsmith Workshop for any long Arborum session. Even at 300 Durability, a heavy mining run will work through a pickaxe.Keep the Iron Pickaxe in rotation for routine Foothills mining; burning Ingot Arborum on Stone or Copper Ore is never worth it.The Swamp Pickaxe can still hit every low-tier node type, so a single pickaxe is enough for a one-stop gathering run once you are past the Foothills ore chain.39+See Also1941: the matching Swamp-tier chopping tool : the full tool roster42+ToolsIron PickaxeSwamp AxeWeaponsmith WorkshopIngot ArborumHardwoodArborum
