Crafting shovel

A shovel is a crafting tool used both in the various metalworking processies (Blacksmithing, Weaponsmithing, and Armorsmithing), as well as the mining process that fuels them.

See Crafting Tools for details.

Usage

• In forging, it is used to move coal into the fires that are used to work metal. This is done by PUSHing the fuel with the shovel.

Templates

Shovels are assumed to use material hardness to derive their effectiveness.
