1.9.0

Tinker's Staff

Added the Tinker's Staff, a highly customizable modular tool. It begins with no basic tool functions, but increases its user's movement speed based on its handle materials.

Forging Templates can be applied to grant the staff new functions without consuming modifier slots. Compatibility-based templates are only available when their corresponding mods are installed.

Forging Templates

• Farming: Allows the staff to till soil like a hoe.
• Combat: Increases attack damage, attack reach, and attack speed.
• Mining: Allows the staff to mine blocks like a pickaxe.
• Excavation: Allows the staff to dig like a shovel and create paths. If Farming is also installed, the user must sneak to create paths.
• Felling: Allows the staff to chop wood like an axe. It increases attack damage but reduces attack speed.
• Shearing: Grants the tool functions of shears.
• Nature: Grants the functions of Botania's Wand of the Forest and Mana Blaster, including a built-in Damage Lens.
• Insight: Grants the functions of Thaumcraft's Caster's Gauntlet. When no casting focus is installed, the staff can also perform Salis Mundus transmutations.
• Research: Grants wrench functions from supported technology mods. With Forestry installed, it also provides the functions of the Scoop, Smoker, Grafter, and Portable Analyzer.
