Creation
The raw material used to create the tool head determines the crafting process required:
- Knapping: Stone propicks cannot be crafted by knapping.
- Casting: Copper and Bronze alloy propicks can be made by casting, which requires 100 metal units.
- Smithing: Iron, Bronze alloy and copper propicks can be made by smithing, which requires 1 ingot.
- Note: Propicks can also be smithed from the rare base metals gold and silver.

Usage
The pickaxe is the primary tool used in mining ores, but the prospector's pick or propick is the primary tool used to detect/locate ore deposits.
- To prospect: press the left mouse button with the propick in an active hotbar slot to "hit" the rock. When the block breaks, a sample is taken. A detailed description of the prospecting process is available on the mining page
Harvesting
Propicks can be used to harvest rock, which include ores and mineral materials. When blocks are broken, rock, small stones or ores contained in chunks of stone will be dropped. Ores within rock be crushed with a hammer in the crafting grid to obtain smeltable nuggets.
Combat
Attacking a mob (melee combat): place the tool in an active hotbar slot and press or hold left mouse button to strike the target.
Crafting
The propick is not used as a tool in (grid crafting).
Storage
Tools are items commonly used by players and are generally equipped in the hotbar. Propicks do not stack in inventory or when placed in containers. The tool rack is a specialized wall mounted storage container that allows players to store tools. Tool racks are made of 6 sticks in the drafting grid and once placed, can store 4 tools each. Tools are placed from an active hotbar slot and removed using the right mouse button to an empty space in the hotbar.
