Tungsten Pickaxe

Watching it move, this feels sluggish next to the Iron Pickaxe and Lead Pickaxe, and that read is wrong. More power per swing means fewer swings per block, and on stone that arithmetic beats the slower animation comfortably. Judge a pickaxe by how long a tunnel takes to dig, not by how quickly it waves.

This is the one place where the tungsten and silver branches genuinely part ways. Tungsten can cut Meteorite, and the Silver Pickaxe cannot, so a tungsten world walks straight from the surface into a crash site without stopping to build a gold or platinum pick on the way. A silver world has to take the long route.
