if there's 1 tool that would never break, what would you choose?

[Pintuition]

Shovel for sure! I constantly have to go buy new ones pretty much daily. It's so annoying! Especially when digging for fossils and chucking unwanted flowers!

 

[SirSean]

Probably the stone axe since it's more of a pain to get than a shovel.

 

[tajikey]

This needed to be a poll, but I'd say the slingshot. I don't even carry one now because I hate that it breaks.

 

[elo-chan]

I'm gonna say stone axe. This is the reason I just buy the wood I need now instead of farming for it myself lmao.

 

[Bk1234]

Definitely the shovel. It is so annoying to have to stop hitting rocks or working on an area just so you can buy/make a new shovel.

 

[AppleBitterCrumble]

my trusty shovel!!

i agree with people saying shovel, it would be the most convenient for gameplay.
but also watering can. ljke why tho.
like. oh no, better not water my flowers too hard ????

 

[Theoneandonlymegan]

If my shovel breaks one more time while I try and remove the insanity of my flowers from my island I might just go crazy

 

[BigBadButterfree]

I'd say shovel but for a different reasons than anyone else. I don't mind that tools break (come at me), but the shovel requires hard wood to craft, and that resource is always one that I run out of. I hate the slingshot for the same reason.

 

[Manah]

Definitely the shovel. I just went through three shovels removing flowers from one corner of my island.

I agree for the shovel, my second choice is also the stone axe. I just use both too frequently that having them break is such a pain. I don't entirely dislike tool durability, but since I find them to be such necessities in just my daily in game chores makes it all the more frustrating when they finally break!

 

[Enxssi]

Definitely the shovel, but can you imagine a watering can breaking IRL?
“Man I hate it when I’m watering my plants and all of a sudden my watering can just straight up shatters into pieces”

 

[Shellzilla_515]

Along with many others, it's the shovel as it can really degrade that tool when simply just digging up flowers, especially if you have to deal with the spread of it... Aside from the shovel, I don't understand why watering cans break. Has there ever been a moment in your life that your watering can broke just because you kept on using it? You're just pouring harmless water, so there's nothing damaging about it.

shovel
the irritation of getting rid of flowers with the shovel breaking at the same time is maddening lol

 

[Peach_Jam]

oh shovel for sure :[
i have to always dig up fossils, flowers, relocate trees or shrubs, manila clams and it's just no fun when it keeps breaking

 

[DarkDesertFox]

The shovel. It's 10x more necessary now that they don't let you pluck flowers from the ground.

 

[sleepydreepy]

The stone axe because it requires regular wood to craft, which is annoying if it breaks and you are trying to collect regular wood by chopping trees!

 

[Insulaire]

The stone axe for sure.

I was going to say the Net but I’m changing my answer to this because it can’t even be refreshed with customization

 

[Hanif1807]

I would choose either Stone Axe or Shovel. I use them the most

 

[Corrie]

Shovel for sure.
