Description
Tool Mastery makes your tools feel earned. Every pickaxe, axe, shovel and hoe remembers how much work it has done, and the more you use it, the faster it gets.
How it works
Each time you break a block with the right tool, the tool earns progress stored on the item itself. Every level needs more blocks than the last (level 1 at 25 blocks, level 5 at 625, level 10 at 2,500). Each level adds +8% mining speed, up to +80% at level 10. When a tool levels up, you get an action-bar message and a sound. The tooltip shows the current level, the progress toward the next one and your bonus.
What it does not do
- No new items, blocks, mobs or recipes.
- No change to durability, damage, enchantments or drops.
- Swords, bows and armor are not affected.
- Blocks broken in Creative mode, with the wrong tool, or instantly give no progress.
- Progress lives on the item: lose the tool, lose its levels.
