Disney Dreamlight Valley players can now temporarily enchant their Royal Pickaxe to make it even more powerful using Miracle Pickaxe Polish. The Royal Pickaxe is showcased as one of the most important of the royal tools at the very beginning of the game, and players are no doubt excited to see how it can be improved even further. While Merlin gives the player a general idea that Miracle Pickaxe Polish will allow them to get more valuable resources from mining, it's understandable that players would want to know exactly what that means.
When mining in Disney Dreamlight Valley, there are a number of different resources players can get depending on where they are mining. The most basic of these resources are stone and coal, but players can also attain iron ore, gold ore, crystals, and, most importantly, minerals and gems. The Miracle Pickaxe Polish is going to make it much easier for players to stock up on gems.
What Does Miracle Pickaxe Polish Do?
The Miracle Pickaxe Polish makes it so that every swing will always produce a gem that is available in that biome. For example, if the player uses Miracle Pickaxe Polish and then goes mining on the beach, each swing will yield one of Dazzle Beach's gemstones, a Peridot or an Aquamarine. Whether or not the gem is shiny is still up to chance, but finding them is guaranteed. It's worth noting that using the enchanted pickaxe in the Vitalys Mines will most likely award players with Vitalys Crystals rather than Rubies and Sapphires, so it's best to use it elsewhere.
To maximize the effectiveness of this enchantment, bring a mining friend along, and they will have a chance to double every gem the player mines. When applied to the Forgotten Lands, this combo can net players a huge amount of Diamonds and Amethysts very quickly, making it a good way to earn Dreamlight Valley Star Coins fast if players have the resources to spare. The standard Miracle Pickaxe Polish only lasts for five swings, but players can craft the more potent version called Even More Miraculous Pickaxe Polish to get an impressive 12 uses out of it instead.
Players wanting to use this regularly will need a hefty stockpile of Dreamlight, Onyx, and Vitalys Crystals. Alternatively, it may be wise to hold onto a few of these potions and only use them when quests or star path duties require a lot of a specific gemstone. Regardless of how players choose to use it, the Miracle Pickaxe Polish is certainly a powerful enchantment.
Disney Dreamlight Valley is in early access now on PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
