Notes[edit]

The shovel is consumed when equipped instead of when a chest is successfully discovered, and unequipping it does not reimburse the item. Because of this, it is possible to lose all shovels without actually discovering any chests.
  • Once equipped they must be used or dropped before the player can use their 1-5 skills. They cannot be returned to inventory.
  • If not used, a shovel will expire in a few minutes.
  • Usually, the shovel will be consumed (broken) on "digging"—but will not "break" when used to "search" (sonar).
