Pick
The pick is a hand tool consisting of a metal head attached to a short pole. These items may be found in Ultima VII and Ultima VII Part Two, as well as in Martian Dreams.
Description[edit]
Frequently used in mining operations and other pursuits which involve digging, a standard pick head has one pointed end which is of use in breaking up rock, and one flattened end which may be used as a prying tool or a crude axe to chop through tree roots. While not designed for combat, the pick may nevertheless be used as a makeshift weapon when better arms are not available. Picks are also the only way to harvest the Stone of Castambre, which is located on the Isle of Fire.
Effectiveness as a Weapon[edit]
- In Martian Dreams, picks have a damage of 2 and a reach of 0.
- Picks were listed in Ultima VII and Ultima VII Part Two as having a damage of 4 and an effective range of 2.[1]
The Gold and Silver Picks[edit]
In the NES-port of Ultima III, special gold and silver picks are needed to obtain the Mystic Arms and Armour – as these artifacts may not be retrieved from the earth by means of other tools.
