Cursed Tools

In: Secrets & Unlockables

On certain levels of the Lake Mine, you can randomly find a cursed version of your farm tools. Each cursed tool can appear when you’re tilling dirt on predefined floors of the mine.

Cursed Tools are the third most powerful upgrades you can unlock in the game. You can get your tasks done a lot more quickly, but the downside is that they cost 5x as much stamina and can’t be unequipped normally. But they are the first step towards getting Mythic tools.

Each Cursed Tool can be found on a specific floor of the Lake Mine by using your Hoe to till the ground.

All Cursed Tools
Icon	Cursed Tool	Floor Level
	Cursed Axe	Level 49
	Cursed Fishing Rod	Level 29
	Cursed Hammer	Level 59
	Cursed Hoe	Level 39
	Cursed Sickle	Level 79
	Cursed Watering Can	Level 69

Note: A Cursed Tool will not appear if your toolbag is full, so make sure you have an extra spot in the bag before venturing out to find one.

Requirements

There are two main requirements to be able to collect Cursed Tools:

Have all your tools upgraded to Mithril status
Access to the Lake Mine

To actually find a cursed tool, you’ll need to get to the Lake Mine first.

This is the mine situated in the middle of Kappa’s lake.

Since your farmer can’t swim, the mine entrance will be inaccessible until Winter rolls around every year. When the lake freezes over, you’ll be able to cross the ice and enter the Lake Mine.

One way to get around this is to uncover the Travel Stone on Level 255 of the Spring Mine. This stone will let you teleport to anywhere in Mineral Town.

Removing the Curse

When you equip a Cursed Tool, it cannot be unequipped until you remove the curse.

Technically you can pay Carter 1,000 G to temporarily unequip your Cursed Tool. So if you equip one and need it off, simply visit him at Mineral Church’s confession booth and ask him to remove it from your equipped tool slot.

But to permanently break the curse, you’ll need to complete a specific action for each separate tool to “bless it”, giving you a Blessed Tool.

This is essential because it leaves you with the same effectiveness at a fraction of the stamina cost.

Collecting all Cursed Tools and blessing them is a requirement for unlocking Mythic Ore in the Spring Mine.

Cursed Tool Properties

The Cursed upgrade gives your tools a very powerful boost in performance.

You’ll be able to destroy all rocks and debris in a room with a single command, till enormous plots of land, and break large boulders in one swing.

The farmer uses a Cursed Axe to clear the farm of debris.

The catch is that they’re very expensive to use in terms of stamina and fatigue. You will gain +10 fatigue every time you use a Cursed Tool, and you’ll spend excessive amounts of stamina per swing (75-100 STA).
