Golden Demon Fortune Pickaxe

Quickstart

1. Craft the pickaxe using the recipe below (the crafting recipe is automatically unlocked for you when you join the world).
2. Hold it in either hand — main hand or off-hand both work.
3. Just carry it and mine as normal. As long as it's in one of your hands, you'll constantly have the Luck status effect active.
4. Enjoy better loot from ore drops, fishing, and anything else influenced by Luck.

Overview

The Golden Demon Fortune Pickaxe is a radiant, netherite-tier pickaxe wrapped in gold and infused with demonic fortune. It never stops shimmering with an enchanted glint, and simply holding it keeps you blessed with good luck. It's built for players who want a reliable, always-on luck boost while they mine and explore.

What It Adds

• Golden Demon Fortune Pickaxe — a single powerful tool item with netherite-level mining performance and a permanent enchantment glint.
• A crafting recipe to create the pickaxe.
• A passive luck aura that activates whenever the pickaxe is held.

How To Use

• Simply keep the pickaxe in your main hand or off-hand. No activation is needed — the luck effect refreshes automatically while it's equipped.
• Use it like any other pickaxe to mine blocks; it behaves as a top-tier (netherite-equivalent) mining tool and counts as a pickaxe for all pickaxe-related interactions.
• The pickaxe has high durability (over 2000 uses) before it breaks, so it can be relied on for long mining sessions.
• Because it visually glows at all times, it also doubles as a flashy showpiece item in your inventory or hand.

Crafting And Obtaining

Craft the pickaxe using gold ingots, a nether star, and sticks:

The recipe is automatically granted to you the first time you join a world with this mod installed, so you don't need to discover it manually.

Abilities And Mechanics

• Permanent Glint: The pickaxe always appears enchanted, regardless of whether it has actual enchantments applied.
• Passive Luck Effect: While held in either hand, the pickaxe continuously applies the Luck status effect (level II) to you, refreshing it before it can expire. This improves outcomes for loot tables affected by luck, such as fishing and certain block drops.
• Netherite-Tier Mining: The pickaxe mines at the same speed and block-breaking tier as a netherite pickaxe, and is recognized by the game as a proper pickaxe for tool-related checks.
• Durability: It can withstand extensive use before breaking, making it a long-term mining companion.

Progression And Strategy

Craft this pickaxe early if you have access to a nether star (typically obtained after defeating the Wither) and want a durable, high-tier mining tool that also grants sustained luck. Since the Luck effect boosts drop quality from ores and other luck-sensitive sources, keep the pickaxe equipped while mining or fishing to maximize your rewards over time. Its high durability means you won't need to worry about frequent repairs, letting you focus purely on exploring and gathering resources.
