How to Get Pickaxes from Chests in PickCrafter

In PickCrafter, players can acquire various tools, blocks, abilities, and gear by opening different types of chests. If you are hunting for new tools, getting pickaxes from chests is an efficient way to expand your collection without relying solely on crafting or event milestones. Depending on the chest tier, your chances of pulling a pickaxe range from low percentage drops in standard small chests to guaranteed rewards in specialized options.

Standard Chests and Pickaxe Drop Rates

Standard chests in PickCrafter are unlocked by waiting out specific time timers or using Runic. While many focus on yielding common and rare blocks or abilities, several standard tiers feature a low chance of dropping a pickaxe:

• Iron Chests: Take 2 hours (or 10 Runic) to open and feature a low 1% chance of containing a pickaxe, alongside common blocks, rare blocks, abilities, and a chance of containing animals or artifacts.
• Silver Chests: Require 5 hours (or 25 Runic) and offer a slightly higher pickaxe drop rate at 1.5%.
• Gold Chests: Take 10 hours (or 50 Runic) to open, providing a 2% chance of containing a pickaxe.
• Diamond Chests: Take 16 hours (or 80 Runic) and increase the odds further with a good chance (3%) of containing a pickaxe.
• Mythical Chests: The highest tier of standard timed chests, taking 24 hours (or 100 Runic) to open, granting a 5% chance of containing a pickaxe along with rare blocks, animals, and excellent abilities.
• Free Chests: Available every 3 hours, these rugged chests have a low percentage chance of containing a pickaxe, which can be upgraded via the Chest Skill Tree.

Large and Premium Chests

For players looking for better odds and immediate openings, Large Chests purchased with Runic offer significantly higher chances:

• Large Gold Chests: Cost 150 Runic and feature a great chance of containing a pickaxe.
• Large Diamond Chests: Cost 500 Runic and provide an excellent chance of containing a pickaxe, alongside mythical blocks and rare blocks.
• Large Mythical Chests: Cost 800 Runic and offer an amazing chance of containing a pickaxe, massive amounts of blocks, and magical treasures.

Special and Event Chests

Special event chests and unique containers also provide opportunities to secure pickaxes:

• Pickaxe Chests: These specialized chests cost 500 Runic (or $0.99), appear for a limited 3-day window, and guarantee one pickaxe drop. They can even contain rare pickaxes normally found only in Ender Chests.
• Ender Chests: Purchased using 3 Ender Pearls (obtained through Prestige), these contain exclusive items, including the Ender Chest Pickaxe.
• Event Chests: Most seasonal and thematic event chests—such as the Aquatic Event Chest, Boss Rush Chest, Pumpkin Chest, Turkey Chest, and Egg Chest—feature a low chance of containing a pickaxe in their small variants, while their large counterparts (like the Large Pumpkin Chest, Large Bunny Chest, and Large Scroll Chest) boast excellent chances of dropping a pickaxe.
