Channeled tunneling and deep vein extraction
The Chlorophyte Drill serves as a channeled excavation implement delivering 200% pickaxe power, enabling it to harvest tough jungle deposits including Chlorophyte Ore. When activated, it projects a spinning bit directly forward that inflicts 35 base melee damage and 1 knockback. Its channeled design provides steady, direct block removal right along the cursor line, making it effective for boring narrow exploratory shafts through hard cavern rock.
Chlorophyte metallurgy and pickaxe divergence
Forged from 18 Chlorophyte Bar ingots at a Mythril Anvil or Orichalcum Anvil, this drill competes directly against the swinging Chlorophyte Pickaxe. Drills feature fixed cycle speeds and do not benefit from mining buffs such as Mining Potion or Ancient Chisel. Consequently, miners seeking maximum excavation velocity typically favor the pickaxe, whereas the drill provides reliable, unbuffed point-and-click tunneling with minimal setup.
Trivia
- Possessing 200% pickaxe power, this drill can mine Chlorophyte Ore throughout the Underground Jungle.
- Drills channel at a constant rate and ignore speed bonuses granted by mining potions.
