A {{name}} is a simple, if uncommon, digging implement. It will destroy any [[:Category:Walls|wall]] after eight successful [[penetration|penetrations]].


For walls with a high armor value ([[AV]]), it may take quite a few attempted hits to penetrate with the pickaxe. However, the player is always guaranteed to penetrate on a [[critical hit]]; as a result, with patience, even the most well-armored wall can be destroyed.

Equipping the pickaxe grants the "Dig" activated ability; this ability is a form of autoact which allows the player to select a tile as a target destination, regardless of distance or visibility. Confirming one's selection will cause the player to move in a straight line to the destination, while automatically attacking and destroying any walls in the way.

* Although it will destroy walls with eight successful penetrations, it is not particularly effective compared to the {{favilink|nanopneumatic jackhammer}} or [[Burrowing Claws]] due to its poor inherent penetration.
