Temple brick extraction and dual-purpose utility
The Picksaw is a post-Plantera utility hybrid uniting 210% pickaxe power and 125% axe power within a single tool. Holding 210% pickaxe power makes it the earliest obtainable instrument capable of deconstructing Lihzahrd Brick blocks and Lihzahrd Altars found throughout the Jungle Temple. By combining both pickaxe and axe functions, it consolidates inventory management by eliminating the need to carry separate logging and digging tools.
Golem defeat rewards and excavation efficiency
Acquiring this tool requires defeating Golem within the Jungle Temple, where it has a 25% drop chance in Classic mode and one-in-three odds from Expert treasure bags. Striking with 34 base melee damage and an agile use time of 16, it cuts through stone and timber at rapid speeds. Applying the Light modifier maximizes its swing rate, enabling miners to reshape temple corridors and harvest traps with great speed.
Trivia
- It is the first tool in progression capable of harvesting Lihzahrd Bricks and temple traps.
- It fulfills the roles of both a high-tier pickaxe and an axe in one equipment slot.
