Drills are tools used in the Mining skill to obtain ore and stone, similar to Pickaxes.

Mechanics[]

Drills are mining tools for rock-based materials. They can use the same Enchantments and Reforges as pickaxes do. They also have a Ⓟ Breaking Power just like pickaxes.

Drills only work on most mining islands where there is a custom mining system, including Crimson Isle, Dwarven Mines, Crystal Hollows, Deep Caverns, Gold Mine, Spider's Den, and The End.

Drills require Drill Fuel to function. Most blocks cost 1 base fuel to mine. Aquamarine, Citrine, Onyx and Peridot Gemstones cost 2 base fuel to mine. Glacite, Tungsten and Umber cost 3 base fuel to mine.

The remaining Drill Fuel can be seen on the action bar.

Upgrading[]

On upgrading a Drill to a higher tier, such as forging a Mithril Drill SX-R226 into a Mithril Drill SX-R326, it will keep all its Drill Parts and extra stats, including Enchantments, Reforges, and used Recombobulators. It should be noted that the Titanium Drill DR-X355 is not an upgrade of the Mithril Drill SX-R326, and is instead crafted purely from raw materials.

Drill Parts[]

Drill Parts are additional upgrades for Drills. These can be combined to a drill using a Drill Anvil. There are three available categories of Drill Parts, being Fuel Tanks, Drill Engines, and Upgrade Modules.

Fuel Tanks[]

Fuel Tanks are used to increase the amount of fuel a drill can store. They also decrease pickaxe ability cooldowns.

Mithril-Infused Fuel Tank Mithril-Infused Fuel Tank Increases the Fuel capacity to 10,000. Decreases the ability cooldown by 2%
Titanium-Infused Fuel Tank Titanium-Infused Fuel Tank Increases the Fuel capacity to 25,000. Decreases the ability cooldown by 4%
Gemstone Fuel Tank Gemstone Fuel Tank Increases the Fuel capacity to 50,000. Decreases the ability cooldown by 6%
Perfectly-Cut Fuel Tank Perfectly-Cut Fuel Tank Increases the Fuel capacity to 100,000. Decreases the ability cooldown by 10%

Drill Engines[]

Drill Engines gives bonus ⸕ Mining Speed for the drill, with the higher tier Drill Engines also providing bonus Mining Fortune.

Tips[]

  • The Mithril Drill SX-R326 Mithril Drill SX-R326 is generally not recommended, since it has low Ⓟ Breaking Power, and is very expensive for its stats. The First Mithril Drill on the other hand is much cheaper and as a Drill gives the player the access to the powerful Drill Parts.
  • If player wishes to progress via Crystal Hollows, they should use the Gemstone Drill line since they're cheap and grant very useful ✧ Pristine as well as other bonuses when mining Gemstones.
    • This is true until the player can afford Titanium Drill DR-X655 which is universal and the second best mining tool, due to it having a slot for Topaz gemstone, unlike its predecessors.
  • On the other side, if the player wishes to progress through Dwarven Mines, the Titanium Drills become a good alternative to Mithril gear.

Notes[]

  • Extra blocks mined with the Efficient Miner HotM perk do not consume extra Drill Fuel.

Trivia[]

  • On August 23, 2022 all Drills would give 50-550 (depending on Drill Engine) of each stat due to a bug, this was fixed minutes later.
