Wow that is utter crap. I mean the steel pickaxe you splice the diamond into has a durability of 51,200. Sure, you get the quality up to level 3 for digging granite, and the speed goes up a half a point, but at a loss of nearly half the durability? I thought for sure this was a bug so I cheated myself in about 3 more heads to dig up tantalite ( to get niobium to make a niobium titanium crucible ) and still haven’t even mined a full stack of ore yet. I guess I may as well just go get some cobalt picks going since they have similar quality and durability but don’t require rare diamonds so I can easily make a dozen of them.
