Salvaged Icepick

When mining sulfur and metal ore, aim the first hit aside of the sparkle, and all the following at it. This technique will reduce the amount of hits for harvesting the full node in 1. Doesn't work with stone nodes.

Road Farming overview tl;dr:

Salvaged Pick is #3 for barrel farming, and #7 for roadsign farming
Not that great of a durability for roadsigns or too many barrels, but this tool is great for farming nodes, while not slowing down your road farming much.

Since its very early on the Tier2 workbench and only costs metal blades and pipes to research its a tool wich can be researched and crafted very early in wipe. I dont research the metal picaxe anymore i go straight for this one.

Not the best sound to harvest a corpse, but it is appealing to hit some dead eyes with it.
It is decent to pickaxe softside walls with it, not recomending to build one, but using one you find is better then the regular pickaxe.

This is not worth researching due to the big amount needed to research and a big amount to make it. Having it isn't even that at good as it seems... It just mines quicker than the Pickaxe and you receive the same amount as the pickaxe.
