     Black Metal Pickaxe64 pickaxe · tool tier 3

Armor: the set each biome's materials make, with the most armor at max level (an earlier set can still hold more — see the ladders). Cape and shield: the most armor or block you can have by then (shields that can parry). Melee and bow: the fewest hits on that biome's hostile creatures at skill 50 (best weapons by biome). Pickaxe: the highest tool tier by then.
